Well I havent been on here in a while...been really busy. But im at work today and there seems to be no broken cars so ill just be lazy lol
The Yota is at home on jack stands. I finally got around to putting that lift on. It will be 95% finished today. I have to order a diff bracket from RC and my shocks will be here for the rear today. I used Jeep Wrangler shocks up front.
I also got a new car to drive since I had to sell my Neon to get that apartment with my ex. I got myself a bone stock 1990 Eagle Talon TSI AWD TURBO. I am the second owner. I have since got an intake, stronger BOV, good tune and exhaust on it.....and did a few tasteful cosmetic mods. Its making around 250HP to all fours at 15psi of boost. I've gotten it to touch 18psi and that scared me!! lol Its pretty damn fast.
Ill get pics of the truck and the car up as soon as I can.

Civic Seats
Driver bolted up just fine. Passenger was tougher. They are way comfy...and I sit a bit higher up...not too sure how I feel about that one yet.
My article!

Thanks for posting the seat picture, looks like my buick seats, hard to tell, I'm 6 foot 8 inches tall so it's not a lot of room and I don't drive it far.
