Besides the $400 carbon fiber hood that does jack.....
Weighs more than half the weigh of a stock hood
The black trim on the sides but none on the bumpers.
Who cares?
The significantly brighter clear corners that don't mtach your cheapo head lights.
You mean the STOCK headlights?
The air damn lip that doesn't match that amazing can o' spray paint that you probably bought from ace hardware.
You mean the unpainted black plastic lip that is the same color as all the other black plastic on the car
And my favorite..... the holes in the carbon fiber hood where you didn't put the washer nozzels back.
You mean the flush caps that cover up the holes so water doesn't get inside my engine bay

No offense dude..... but your ride sucks.
You sould have gotten an Si..... In the color you wanted.... not a hand me down from your grandma.

My DX is much lighter than an Si with a more stiff chassis, and my engine has 32hp more than your Si and that is stock vs. stock. Who cares about the color, it gets the job done.

And I did install it, and it worked, but I wasn't happy with it. An you wouldn't know this because you have an american Dx.... But stock JDM parts are in most cases better than aftermarket parts.

Of course I wouldn't know anything about JDM parts, its not like my entire engine is JDM

jury-rig [n. v. JOO-ree rig]

----------------------------------------------------------------------


A jury-rig is a makeshift assembly that's just temporary, an emergency
measure improvised out of available materials, and to make one is to
jury-rig. Example: "The injured hiker jury-rigged a splint out of
sticks and twine."

The most likely origin is from the Old French ajuri (help), from the
Latin adiutare (aid). In this context, the word "jury" was originally
a nautical term meaning "temporary," as in a "jury sail." This is
distinct from the other meaning of "jury" (a group of persons sworn to
judge and give a verdict), which comes from Latin iurare (to swear),
from ius (law).


so in closing, your grammar == your car == ass.

Your one to talk. :jerkit:

I can't imagine any stock teal Sis with ricer blue valve cover and oil pan winning any car shows anytime soon.

By the way nice black spray painted wheel covers, those are JDM YO!

maybe he painted the oil pan so he can tell if he goes over speedbumps too fast?

JUST FYI: STD DX, HF, LX, EX, and Si models all have IAT sensors, and I think all are interchangeable mounted on the #1 runner.

The OBX mani looks like it has a spot for it in the center on the back of the plenum.

Your right it does. Probably something similar to the fact like aftermarket headers have the O2 placed where all the pipes meet into a single pipe, to get more total and accurate readings. Probably same idea with mounting the TA in the center there.
