My review can be seen here: WeatherTech Floor Mats review

If you have the Cusco accel pedal, make sure to trim the mat where the accel pedal would be. It can (and has) trapped the gas pedal.

- Lamin-X yellow fog light overlays and yellow fog bulbs
- Installed a remote gain control into the dash for my subwoofer amp
- Oil change

Thanks I've read that thread before lol

I'm not looking for cusco pedal... BUT I am currently looking into different pedal though. We'll see

TE37SL summer wheels off. Size 18X9.5 +40 255/35R18

XXR527 winter wheels on. Size 17X8.25 +25 225/45r17.

These winter wheels fit really well.

If it happens, just clutch in, and use your right foot to pull the pedal back out.
The rev-limiter should prevent any serious damage, but you'll want to fish that pedal out asap.

For some reason I love this picture.

On a side note, got the best lap at Kart2Kart last night (7:30). We need to have a meet.

I had no idea how to do my seatbelt, brain fart.

(This weekend) Got wheels (Rota RKR), painted them, installed:

Closer up:

Centercaps will get painted/put on in the next few days.

Just installed the Grimmspeed master cylinder brace. Whoa. I wasn't expecting it to make that much of a difference. When I'm on the brakes hard the brake pedal now sits level with the gas pedal. Heel-toe is dramatically easier. For a 10 minute install and $100 I certainly can't say anything but positive things.

B-R-Z · 11-11-2014, 08:26 PM

CF'd my inside door handles.

Blastersix · 11-11-2014, 08:49 PM

Didn't do jack! However, I did a complete detail on my co-worker's WRX as he's relo'd from California to Wisconsin and I'm just a nice guy. Even put his winter shoes back on that have been sitting in my basement since he left in April. Mmmmmm.....I could get used to two of these in the garage together.

Just went to see the WTF-86 today. A +600hp Twincharged mad piece of art. Awesome thing

I replaced my bad wheel hub bearing with a used unit bought off eBay (from a wrecked FRS).
The vibration and humming/droning sound I picked up from a track day is now gone. She runs like she did on the first day!

Had a couple of "Oh sh*t" moments though - at first, the hub wouldn't come off because it was rusted on (had to hammer it out).
Then the new one didn't wanna go in... Rust again - Canadian winters....
Well worth it though!

Hat tip to @Dave-ROR for the help!

CF'd dash panel
