yeah they all very easy to judge.

If you go redline don't go for that shockproof, not good (I know from experience), best is to stick with oem

as for KW coilovers, very big brand in europe, I know that lots of guys in europe and uk use them, they make stuff for bmw, merc, audi, vw, porshe ect, I know a guy that had them on S2000, very good.

Attn: ppl with CAI, anyone had the problem of the check engine light comming on due to CAI being added to car? air flow would have been changed due to it, but how do i get the light to turn off?

windscreens cont...

Windscreen update...

I visited Ralph Moore Autoglass in Mascot last week. It is a small to medium size workshop - kind of old school but nice in a way as they have been around for a while. They carry a fair bit of stock with a couple of walls of racking for the windscreens.

Perry, I asked Ralph about the seals. He had a look at my car and can't see any major issues there. He has a few different windscreen extrusion profiles and reckons there is one which is pretty similar to the one around the top.

All looking good so far. I rang him this morning and the shipment is still in transit. I will call him on Friday to get another update.

I've driven alot of hatchs and found the EP3s blind spot isnt too bad compared to a dc2r.
