Just got my Big Brake kit installed!

Installed the ebay backup camera kit. Thanks to Pooch for the link. I like how low profile the camera is. It's hardly noticeable. As usual it is pointed down too much but It shows the area behind the car that is normally hard to see. I am going to remove the lines when I figure out which wire to cut.

Spent 2 hours wrapping my gruppe-s header to get ready for full header back install on Saturday, also got wrecked by fiberglass in the process >.>

does anybody have occasional cold start problems with their frs? Sometimes when its cold my car will crank but not turn over until round 2 or 3 at which point it barely turns over and stumbles to idle, 99% of the time though it starts like normal, no problem

No, but I'd suggest you have your car's battery "load tested" at an auto shop.

PS - back in the old country, if an engine is "cranking" it means it's "turning over". If it's cranking (turning over) but doesn't run ..... it's not "firing".....

Battery.

awesome thank you guys, ill check the battery out. The reason I didn't think it was the battery is because it "turns over" but doesn't start firing sort of like my honda if the immobilizer hasnt been programmed. A strong crank but no fire. Thanks! (ps how do I thank a post, I cant for the life of me find a button)

well since in trying to hit 10 posts might as well tell you guys what I did to my car today. I bought a set of 2 12's rated at about 3000w for my frs, wouldn't even come close to fitting in my trunk so guess who lost 2 seats LOL. I also bought myself a dash cam after i got royally screwed by my insurance company late last year

3000w? Holy fuck. You're gonna want to put something behind your license plate so it doesn't buzz
