BTW the instruction sheet that came with the voltometer was for a tachometer, did they send me the wrong sheet or is the wiring near the same?







Also, dem Bridgestones

Still waiting on sct kit install...

Yeah, they probably put the wrong directions in it, or it just comes with install instructions for multiple models (I've seen that before, saves them printing costs). Volt meter just reads the voltage in the cars electrical system, so all you should have to do is hook the positive wire up to a wire that is hot when the ignition is on, and hook the negative up to a ground point.




on other topic, all this talk about rain guards... personally I think they all look terrible. Stand out too much and ruin the look of the car. Looks ghetto as hell. Just my two cents... take it or leave it.

Yeah I agree, only ones I would even consider are the ones that are inlayed to the door sill. Even then I wouldn't really want some especially on a coupe.

Absolutely beautiful day out. So I decided to go a cruise. Gave Lana a good wipe down, not a wash, and hit the road. Here are a few pics I took. Not sure why the camera on my phone made the pictures like this, but oh well.

Thanks to all the recent move ins, I'm in the dammed ghetto! So I'll def be buying a set

IMO it's function>form for that one, I do not like the looks of them, but, with the heat build up in there, my dash is starting to peel up on a corner, and that isn't cool at all (no pun intended)

The depos look real nice, im probably going to upgrade.

As for rain gaurds. Its hit or miss now that ive removed mine. I like it without. But i like cracking my windows when parked to help cool the inside of the car down to prevent the famous dash warp. Which thank god hasnt happend and im at 193k miles. So to prevent people from seeing my windows are cracked, i like rain gaurds.

Stick on gaurds removed

Oh look, wheels aligned again!

Yep, and until my car stopped being driven, it was at work, windows cracked and roof popped open, no issue. Now that it's sat, it's started already, the defroster grate cracked and the driver's side is up like an inch. Makes me mad. stoopid car.
