BLINGMW · 07-15-2005, 04:19 PM

btw that front lip is nice, i think it reforms the whole front of the car, well worth it

just make sure you don't track it at VIR and run over your front lip again on just before the back straight infront of the flat eessseeessss

i remember picking up his old one after 4 cars ran over it Wink

RWD/topless/high revving, sounds like a pornstar, a nice one at that

Mike did I read right that you blew your speaker on the second day of owning your car? Tongue

**Mike** · 07-18-2005, 02:56 PM

you read that halfway right. the other half is that it's actually a really nice component speaker and the glue had come undone on the back of the tweeter pod. this caused it to rest on the woofer, making a blown sound. it also caused a wire to snap. 5 minutes with a soldering iron and some super glue and it's sounding great again Smile

damnit458 · 07-18-2005, 03:23 PM

Ahhh ok, that makes it a little better :wink:

On a side note, how bad was that s2k that got stolen and completely stripped, engine and all. Sad that that has to happen to quality cars. I wonder why they took the airbags :lol:

John · 07-18-2005, 03:29 PM

Must have missed this the other day. Congrats Mike!

meh, it happens, and far less to s2ks than civics so i'm not too worried about it. were you joking about why they took the airbags? if not, it's because they're worth a lot of money.

damnit458 · 07-18-2005, 03:57 PM

I was not. Thats interesting! Learn somethin new every day

Edit: Why are they worth a lot?

**Mike** · 07-18-2005, 04:03 PM

because they're quality speakers. the only reason they broke is because they're a little too big to fit behind the door panel so they always have pressure against them. it looks like they originally used hot glue on them so this super glue should hold for a long time.

they're 3-way w/ a crossover. good stuff.

damnit458 · 07-18-2005, 04:04 PM

No, I think you misunderstood me. I meant why are stolen airbags worth a lot?

**Mike** · 07-18-2005, 04:22 PM

because when airbags go boom they have to be replaced. they cost a lot of money from honda so there is a black market for them.

Sijray21 · 07-18-2005, 04:24 PM

air bags can run up to $1500/each maybe more, i thought they were around there.

A new one for a ford is about 1200, each. They go on ebay for around 700.
