Wow, this keeps getting more and more ghetto funny. Maybe you could **** your pants, wrap an exposed 12v 8 gauge wire coming from the battery around your dick, hang the 12v vtec feed from your pair of top gun style sunglasses and touch your tongue to it when you hit 5k.

Seriously, you can't just say "i've spent up to 10 minutes thinking of this one and bail". Good find kyle on the schematic, definately a keeper. Much easier then the hassle of ordering a Hobbs switch from Summit.

i wont buy ---- from schucks im boycotting them...

went to radio shack, scored a nice square push button (non-momentary) switch for $2.49 (w/tax) plus some wire i had and some connectors....oh and lets not forget the electical tape (yeah i taped it ot the shifter :P).... works great, execpt that its completely random when VTEC kicks in cuz i have to hit the ---- manually...but it works...

that link to the switch is from my site, scarecrowx gave me that one, I have a bunch of other electronics schematics on that site.

dustin that electrical tape is going to suck ***** when it gets hot, it will slip off and then you have a sticky shift ****. ever seen those turkey cooker things that have a little button that pops out when the turkey is ready? I taped one of those bad boys onto my shift **** so I could pretend I had NOS.

Kyle, pm me the link to your site, I wanna see what you have, that rocks that you're collecting that ----.

I actually started out my automotive hobby as wiring ---- up when I was 15.. then I got my first set of tools (still have like 25% of them that haven't been lost/stolen) and now I'm turning wrenches. It seems like all the bass crew has moved into the sport compact scene. Wierd.
