But, you have green light led and a red filter. Green - Red = ??? not the same. Filtering a green light with red lenses will be darker. Look into subtractive color theory. Last edited by Hypnocracy; 10-21-2018 at 05:39 AM. |

Thanks! I think so too!
Initial impressions. FA COILS - These coils are nice quality parts. review after install. BLACKWORKS LCA - Wow! These are beautiful! They have completely exceeded my expectations. More pics soon.

Did it yesterday, and nothing special, just replaced the cabin air filter and wiper blade inserts, both terribly overdue.
The total cost of both inserts was less than the cost of one replacement blade like a Bosch Icon that you'd get at a store, and the swap was practically child's play. Would recommend for those of you who haven't eliminated your OEM wipers yet to stick with replacement inserts.

If you are going for maximum cornering traction, I found the rear sway bar actually made it slipperier

I prefer an armrest on the door that rests my elbow up high enough that aligns my hand with the steering-wheel spoke. I rest my other hand on the underside of the wheel on my thigh. Make a mock-up to try. I found a center armrest constricting and got in the way when changing gear.

Like the red trim. Is it guaranteed not to fade.

I hope you didn't put the video cable along the door sill like I did. If you go across in the trunk , put it between the rear seat backs and poke it up under the tunnel cover (no need to remove the cover) it is easy.

Just bought an OFT and installed the Stage 2+. I will try E85 went my tank gets low, have 93 in right now.
First impressions: Cold start is about 400 RPMs lower which is nice since I leave for work at 4:30 and the neighborhood is dead quiet lol. Idle after warm up is at about 600, makes for a nice loping rumble at the intersection Lots more throttle response and pretty decent pull even in higher gears which is really nice in traffic, no constant down shifting. Overall very pleased with the purchase. I was even able to clear the CEL I got the other day after installing the catless uel.

Thanks for the input. The rear sway pictured is a 16mm Perrin. Plan on using the softest setting for the rear. Rear : 16mm 3 position 16mm Hole #1 30% 16mm Hole #2 65% 16mm Hole #3 116% What bar did you install that made it slipperier feeling? My goal is to have my car feel: more connected, planted, stiffer, yet still not harsh, and a bit more technical to drive. And if anyone notices that I have 2 sets of front endlinks... I was told by the vendor, that THESE FA coils 100% did not come with them. (even though front endlinks are pictured on the FA's website) So, I ordered whiteline front to match the rear endlinks. Now I have two sets....
