So I cleaned up my "fix" for the switch rattle.





I can say without a doubt this has significantly reduced the door rattles. Tested it out playing some heavy bass music.

If you plan to do this, the trick is to just have enough paper in there to stabilize the switch, but not too much where it sticks to the window switch.

However, there is still some panel rattle such as inside the speaker grill and somewhere near that red reflector in the door. Since I don't feel like taking my door apart...i feel this is adequate for me.

If you all have any suggestions other than stuffing paper inside feel free to let me know

Hey what are the chances of the enkei valve stem lock nut coming loose if I tightened it my hand ..I couldn't tight it anymore cause I couldn't fit 2 wrenches for the nuts.. I mean I tightened enough that it started to spin on itself

Thanks

Hey since the shop I brought my wheels to didn't do a good job on installing my valve stems ..I was wondering if someone could tell me how to properly install them ?

It's the valve stems that came with my rpf1

Thanks

Finally drove a full commute after putting Motul Gear in the trans and rear diff over the weekend.

What a difference! You really feel it and notice how smooth it is. Just amazed! Good stuff!

Installed rally armor mud flaps and stalled it for the first time. Made it over a week of ownership before stalling! Not bad!

My order from Japanparts arrived today - I was so stoked! I got my JDM clear side markers installed (passenger side was a huge pita to get to clip in securely), matte black Grazio & Co. fender emblems, and I started installing my SARD Racing seat covers. It was dark, and I was beat after getting the front seat covers installed - will tackle the rear ones later on in the week.
