Installed a Sparco L360 Steering Wheel with a Splash Hub Adapter. I was looking for something more JDM but I couldn’t find anything I liked so I just got a Sparco.
The Splash adapter is supposed to cancel the airbag light, but I think the resistor isn’t working so I need to buy another resistor, and I can’t figure out how to connect the horn button, but other than those two issues, installing it was pretty easy, and the build quality is pretty nice. In regards to the steering wheel, it’s very nice, I have some visibility issues; I can’t see my RPMs from 5-7K but other than that it does it’s job, it’s just extremely different from the stock wheel, and I just have to get used to it. If I had to buy another wheel again it would probably be the suede version of this one, or an R383. |

I don’t plan to do anything crazy to the car until my first track day. I would like to see how the car feels somewhat stock, and work my way from there. I will probably just get an oil cooler and install my catback. and wait until then to do anything crazy, like install headers.

Cedric’s 10 Series Build Thread
I lied. I installed Tomei UEL headers with help from some friends, and put a Stage 2 tune on my Open Flash Tablet.
I haven’t driven it too much so I can’t form a proper opinion about them, but so far I really enjoy the tune and the headers. The tablet is nice, the diagnostics mode seems extremely helpful, and I tried to mount it so it would be easy to see, but won’t look too out of place. I had a friend manage my OBD wire so it wouldn’t get in the way of my feet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Last edited by Cedric; 07-31-2020 at 03:37 AM. |

OFT Readings after driving somewhat hard.
I’m running somewhat rich, but it’s nothing too crazy that I have to worry about it. I don’t know what normal oil temps are for FA’s, but 199 degrees seems somewhat hot. I’m hoping an oil cooler will fix that issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Went to a back road to have fun. The car did well, but my oil temps got up to 231 degrees Fahrenheit. I just ordered a Jackson Racing oil cooler and that should fix the issue.

I have had my oil temperature as high as 250° on the street, I am about ready to pull the trigger on a large oil cooler.

Tomei 80mm frontpipe, and overpipe installed on the car
Now I’m just waiting for the catback, and I’ll have a full Tomei exhaust with unequal headers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

199 isn't hot, you're good. Get an oil cooler if you start seeing 230-240+

Good thing you got some good Mines Rd drives in recently since that whole area is now on fire.
Seriously depressing. My favorite driving road and scenery.
