You don't need founds to make it look clean. I paid $50 for my paint and I spraid it my self, cluster $120 and all the info I found on Internet. It's not really the money it's just time.

I certainly wish I had the time to sit around and make my car look better... darn work.

HMTsol 05-05-2009 06:01 PM

I did all that after work, and I work 10 hours everyday.

And I have a wife... and house chores... and a garage without electricity.

Was it very hard to make that S2K cluster work? I have seen some write ups out there but never looked at them. It would be an uber clean install with a trim ring or bezel from your factory plastics around the cluster. Do you have plans to fab something up? Wouldn't be that hard with some paper or cardboard as a template and then some thin ABS plastic sheeting. You could even use some thin sheet metal and paint it to match the car. Regardless, I like what you have done. Keep on it!

Yah I still not sure what to do with it, but I might go with carbon fiber sheet and I'll throw that on water jet its gonna be cleaner that way.
Wiring is very easy, if you have honda I can show you haw to to that.

My car is done, home made catch can come out good. Waiting for tune...

that s2k cluster reminds me of the 80's "sports" cars. bleh....

very clean, nice build man. Not digging the gold rims tho. Thing black or gunmetal would flow nice with the orange. But none the less good job, cant wait to see the numbers it puts up.
