Seeker shift knob


Status CF seats


Volk TE37 17x9 22 came on tiny 215/40, swapped them out for 235/40


Quick test fit of the new wheels with the 235/40 and they would not clear with the camber I currently had. Adjust the rears a tad bit more at this height just so I could run the wheels for now until I got an alignment. Eventually raised the rears pull in more front camber for track day.


Week trip with some friends down to Vancouver, BC










J's front strurt tower bar, J's C pillar, J's Rear strut tower bar and some Spoon socks.




Track Day prep - Hawks Hp+ pads and new brake fluid, and an alignment, Also got a JDM Honda access OEM rain visors,


Track Day












End of 2015.

J's Racing Rad cap and Oil cap



Works Bell Hub spacer
