    If I change my oil and empty the catch can every 5K, you say I need a dip stick still? I am mounted low.

    What you getting for a new ride?

    What I’m saying is that you should check it every so often and if the dip stick doesn’t work or you don’t have one, it’s hard to know the lay of the land;).

    My commute doesn’t build goo in the can that a different climate or warm up cycle would. Every situation is different and produces different results. Having the can in for 25k miles and only generating 8 ounces of material, I felt confident that I would be fine:).

    Now for a new owner with new driving style or commute and not knowing the result, I felt it better to leave it off.

    Getting a Blue Magnetism Prime Plus by the 14th(y)

    Last week I installed my spin on filter conversion kit from Hybrid Pit. Incredibly easy install, and now I don't have to worry about the stuck filter housing anymore! Thanks again Hybrid Pit!

    And today I went out to Honda Fest in Tacoma Washington and got some track time in. Got a lot of attention afterwords based on how fast I was able to be. Hybrid power!

    Give me some part numbers and I'll get them ordered :D What's a roll center corrector?

    I have two likely dying cells so I need to get that handled before the next track day. No error codes yet but I am noticing the battery goes from full to nearly dead after one zero to sixty pull, which isn't doing me any favors. I'd also like to figure out a good way to get cold air into the HV battery system. Right now I'm planning to get a Zero Cool portable AC unit and have it blowing directly on the air intake. The other option is trying to find something I can hang out a window, hah!

    That stance looks awesome! Can't wait for the weather to warm up some more so I can put my 19's on and drop it again. The streets are still dirty with lots of sand here.

    Here you go. Not a current photo, but I want to try and go lower in the back. Just have to grind an sharp point off by the screw that holds the rear bumper to the the quarter panel and I think I'm good to go.
