Damnnn, you need to steam clean that engine bay.

How's the engine damper? Vibrates like crazy inside? I had to take mine off, couldn't take it.

I was just looking a Tinman's setup and that would take all of about $20 maybe $30 and 15-30 mins to do! LOL

Lets try to hook something like that up! I know he had to make the brackets to mount those up there. I'm sure we could get some dampers for cheap. Even if just for looks those are hot!

for $13.5 you could do 10 cars if not more! and then some G8 bolts from Home Depot $2 Drill and taping would be the $$$$ if you cant do it your self Im sure I can do it at work one week end!

NO Im taking his and cuting it down about 1/8-1/4 inch off each side and rewelding it and putting gusits on the welds to strengthin them b/c if it was functional the first time it was torqued the welds would give!

I could possiblly make some and probably for half the price as well but I got mine for 135 so I was conplaining to much!

Oh and no, I don't see the Zex kit. Did you get it all installed?

I have a complete honda kit and two bottles in my garage. Make me a damper kit and I'll send you a spare bottle.
