  1. Long overdue update. Installed TBSTi mufflers and a K2Gear rear bumper. Still just putting miles on it and enjoying it. About to roll over 180k.
  2. This is rad. Glad to see you were able to get the front end all swapped. Did you get the MD2S in the headlights?
  3. Well, finally got it done. My good friend and I completed my Spec B 6 speed swap and so much more. After driving 200 miles from NH to CT with the whole swap in the back of the wagon, we pulled the 5 speed and found stripped out torx+ flywheel bolts from the numbskull who worked on the car before I started doing most everything. This led us to pull the motor as well as finding leaking head gaskets and valve covers after only 35k miles. So we pulled that and put it in the back of HIS SWP 5MT wagon (black leather interior so the rarest one). I brought it back home to a local shop and had it all fixed up professionally and after two weeks drove back with the motor and the other wagon. We then mated it to the 6 speed and dropped them both in!! Got everything put together and went to start it but the starter just clicked... turns out the 08-09 Spec B 6 speeds use a different starter motor than the 07 does... got a new starter and it worked perfectly. Primed it and it fired up like it had never even been out. We test drove it and the drivers side front brake caliper seized after less than a mile but we got a new one and changed that out in about 15 minutes. Next day I drove my car back home with zero issues. It went from no motor or transmission on a Thursday morning to running and driving by Saturday morning. What a journey. Updated my mod list as well!
  4. Since my stock wheel was crumbling and looking tired, I set out to find a replacement. I first looked at the DAMD wheel, but having driven a car with it, I found that I disliked the look, ergonomics and overall shape. It just didn't work with my hands. So I looked for the part number of the original OEM MOMO wheel... and here it is. Discontinued part number, the last one in the US.
  5. Back into summer mode just in time for more rain and snow!! I just picked up the last few nuts and bolts for my 6 speed swap. Just need to find a weekend to get the swap done with some friends!

  6. Some current photos on my favorite photography road! 6MT swap is coming, just waiting on the last few bushings and parts. DSC_0237 by Jonah Walker, on Flickr DSC_0239 by Jonah Walker, on Flickr DSC_0242 by Jonah Walker, on Flickr
  7. Wired up my JDM headlights. I know there are a few walkthroughs on here but they are all lacking pictures and pretty confusing. I will be making another post on here with pictures of what I did to make them plug and play.
  8. I just used v33k's independent fog light mod. I like leaving them on when I take pictures because I think it looks cool lol no other reason. These JDM fog lights are bright!!!
  9. Updated pics. I installed my new front bumper. I am in the process of wiring up the JDM headlights that came with it. Pics of that coming soon!

  12. Below is a link to a video a friend made on my car and what I do! Watch until the end and hold back the tears https://www.facebook.com/sunnydaysproductions/videos/10155930706683895/
  13. Very cool that you are able to find and receive parts while on the ship! Perks of working at sea lol
  14. Acquired a front clip from a JDM Legacy! This will be the new bumper I put on the wagon come spring!
  15. Playing around with an 80s era lens on my DSLR.
