Ended up buying a member's Bespoke headunit. Hopefully I get it within the week and i'll have pictures up.

My GF is in Japan right now and I might make her bring me back a recaro seat.

Nice seats but your waist size can't exceed 28 to fit in those. They seem to be very narrow.

They're narrow but not that narrow. Well at least 3 years ago when I tried them they fit snug and I'm a 34. I would say that is the max width

Side by side comparison of the JDM optional frameless mirror. The one really thing about it is the 2 pivots that would let the mirror sit much higher or lower. I basically have it sitting at it's max height and it gives me about 1-2 inches more of viewing space

My GF's father surprised me with a very nice present, the Tamiya 86 model. He's from an small island with a population of only 50 and he usually works on RC airplanes models, so i'm sure he was glad I did get happy from his present. He also mentions if I need any car parts from Japan he could help me out :thumbup:

It should look like this after paint/installing

Cool model! What is the name of that Recaro seat? That thing looks amazing! I've never seen it before. It looks like a mix between my Profi SPG and the Evo X seat.

Top one is the TS-G and the bottom is the RS-G. Very similar with the exception of the seat angle is slightly different. Just be warned you have to have a small waist. Probably 34 and lower is best.

Oh yeah, I'm really skinny. I have the Profi SPG right now which is at most designed for a 36 waist.

It is a little smaller then the SPG at the waist, but if you have room to spare then you should be fine.


Small update/purchase. I accidentally chipped my door in my garage, so I went ahead and bought the Dr Colorchip kit and things came out better then excepted. There still is a very small indent but the actual paint is sealed up and it the color matching is good. Better then my OEM Honda touch up paint in the past at least.

Installed the Grimmspeed License Relocation Kit and drilled the tow hook cover. I made a DIY here.
