You just gonna use a jambing gun for that on low pressure???? I was always wondering how thats done withoug taping up all the windows and stuff. Even tho he doesnt have anthing in the int.:thinking:

[The BUCKY]

nah allthe windows will be taped up usually i have the windows pulled but he dont have the money fr it

[eg mike]

What all do you need to purchase to do custom brake lines? And does distance matter when your making them? I think I read somewhere you had to have the lines identical lengths (left/right)

Other than that question your car is looking SICK man!

I do have a couch. Its so comfy.

I'm Not really into lounge chairs!

[PURP]

Well, you should try it sometime. Remember, There's nothing wrong with being different.

[integ34]

true.

....be different.
DONT "TRY" TO BE DIFFERENT.

P.S. DIFFERENT IS NOT DOIN RANDOM SHIT DAT "YOU" DONT EVEN THINK IS COOL. THANKS!

good luck with your build!

[PURP]

true.

....be different.
DONT "TRY" TO BE DIFFERENT.

P.S. DIFFERENT IS NOT DOIN RANDOM SHIT DAT "YOU" DONT EVEN THINK IS COOL. THANKS!

That's why I did things "I LIKED"... not what everyone else likes. And trying to be different, means you try something and can't finish it. As you can see, everything "I" did different, is complete. :goodjob:

anything else??

Not to nit pick... but didn't you just contradict yourself here?

Build seems to be going nice. Stepping out of the box a bit... which is nice and refreshing so I definitely give you props for that :goodjob: but if someone wants to build a car that is "JDM" or what have you, what's the big deal? Why hate on them for choosing to outfit their car with that particular "style?" No sense in hating on them for choosing to do so right? We all build cars for one reason or another. Some for fashion, some for form, some for function. I know you don't seem to care for the whole JDM styled thing cause it definitely seems to be the route everyone's going now a days, but I just feel like it's unfair to criticize someone who makes the decision to throw on a few rare parts they sourced from overseas, or chooses to drop a rediculous ammount of cash and instal a Backyard Special lip just because they feel it is aestethically pleasing to the eye, or perhaps they just wanna get a fake mugen lip/slipstreams/ebay coilovers because that's all they can afford... Man I totally get where you're coming from. The honda scene is getting kinda "boring" if you wanna look at it like that... but everything in life loses its "shine" once everyone and their cousin gets ahold of it. Where's the sense in hating on someone who just wants to keep their car stock minus a few tasteful mods like a lip and wheels? Honda spent A LOT of time in the research and design with these cars, and they got A LOT of things right straight outta the factory if you ask me. But if you're gonna be an advocate of "being yourself and having fun with it" or "doing what you want and not giving a flying fuck what others think" then shouldn't you be a little more accepting of how others choose to build their cars? I feel like as long as you enjoy putting in the countless hours of wrenching to be a part of this thing we call Honda, I could give a fuck how your car looks. At the end of the day, we're all here for the same reason. Whether it's to fit in with the cool crowd, to modify and improve on the already brilliant designs of an amazing car company, to bust your knuckles and build a 4 cylinder that can compete with the big boy V8's at the track, or to just have a nice looking way to get from point A to point B... We're all just car lovers. And the ones who truly aren't will fizzle out and fade away like the flashy paint schemes and gawdy body kits of our past.

Again, great job on the build man. Everything seems to be getting done the right way and your attention to detail is meticulous. Just thought I'd share my thoughts on this whole "it's cool to hate JDM" thing that seems to be going around lately. But remember... that'll end up being lame one day too. :goodjob: Thumbs up to a guy who is taking a leap and doing something different. Interesting build to say the least.

[integ34]

That's why I did things "I LIKED"... not what everyone else likes. And trying to be different, means you try something and can't finish it. As you can see, everything "I" did different, is complete. :goodjob:

anything else??

How does someone hate on "rice" but build "rice"?!?


P.s. I plan before I build. Not build then plan. What's your motivation?

[PURP]

Not to nit pick... but didn't you just contradict yourself here?

Build seems to be going nice. Stepping out of the box a bit... which is nice and refreshing so I definitely give you props for that :goodjob: but if someone wants to build a car that is "JDM" or what have you, what's the big deal? Why hate on them for choosing to outfit their car with that particular "style?" No sense in hating on them for choosing to do so right? We all build cars for one reason or another. Some for fashion, some for form, some for function. I know you don't seem to care for the whole JDM styled thing cause it definitely seems to be the route everyone's going now a days, but I just feel like it's unfair to criticize someone who makes the decision to throw on a few rare parts they sourced from overseas, or chooses to drop a rediculous ammount of cash and instal a Backyard Special lip just because they feel it is aestethically pleasing to the eye, or perhaps they just wanna get a fake mugen lip/slipstreams/ebay coilovers because that's all they can afford... Man I totally get where you're coming from. The honda scene is getting kinda "boring" if you wanna look at it like that... but everything in life loses its "shine" once everyone and their cousin gets ahold of it. Where's the sense in hating on someone who just wants to keep their car stock minus a few tasteful mods like a lip and wheels? Honda spent A LOT of time in the research and design with these cars, and they got A LOT of things right straight outta the factory if you ask me. But if you're gonna be an advocate of "being yourself and having fun with it" or "doing what you want and not giving a flying fuck what others think" then shouldn't you be a little more accepting of how others choose to build their cars? I feel like as long as you enjoy putting in the countless hours of wrenching to be a part of this thing we call Honda, I could give a fuck how your car looks.

I'm not gonna lie. You're right. It will be old news one day. I was in the whole rare shit when body kits and big wheels were in. I've watched it progress into the monster it is today. You say I hate on the JDM style and I'm not gonna sit here and type that I don't hate. Cause I do. People hate on everyone. I put a gauge in my tail light and get criticized on this forum because," It doesn't belong there??" Or I was going overboard trying to be differen. And I know you're not hating on it. I read what you said and I thank you. But some if not most people on here follow a thin line of "what they like" and " what others like." That's a fact. This whole JDM era we seem to be in has went way too far. It makes me want to body kit my car and do all other kinds of crazy shit, just to seperate myself from the car parked next to me. I could care less if I have haters. They only motivate me to keep doing what I'm doing, which is build MY car. And to answer your question, yes I did contradict myself. That's just me. I'll put it in these terms. Anyone on this forum can run around typing, jdm is the shit blah blah blah, and no one says shit. And if they do they get flammed. But, when someone else comes in and says jdm is dead or what's the point of a stock car with rims, that looks just like the other car next to it. They get hated on.( Not saying you're hating), but I am just saying. It happens on here all day everyday.

And to Jon whatever your SN is... I love you.... You make me want to be a better lover to you.:gay:

[PURP]

And to add to what you said. I don't care if someone goes out and spends 800+ on a lip or spoiler. Just don't knock someone like you said, who can't afford it. Have respect and don't go around flashin that shit like you're the only one with it. Cause in all reality, no one cares except the ones you mentione who would not be around long enough anyways.

And you know what... i also think honda owners are the biggest critics of fellow honda owners. No other group hates on each other more than honda owners. you go to any other car specific forum, and you will notice.
