So I am new to EPhatch so just thought I would give introduce myself to the forum:

I have a 2002 Si, which I have had for about a year and a half to date.
Bought with 87k, two owners before me which left it completely stock except for a no-name intake.
Have some simple mods since buying the car:
-Raceland coilovers (best bang for the buck , havent had a problem with them and love the way they ride)
-16in Buddy Club P1 wheels in Kumho Ecsta XS 215-45-16 tires
-Blox 24k gold shift knob
-JDM side markers
-custom Stoney's beer tap shift knob
-Pioneer AVIC-z130bt headunit
-K-Tuned shifter bushings
-RSX Type-S front sway bar
-Progress rear sway bar
-Progress rear tie bar
-Greddy Evo II exhaust
-high flow cat
-Pioneer speakers the whole way around

Future plans include:
-More suspension
-Different wheels & tires (havent totally decided on what I want lol)
-Motor swap & boost (way down the road)
-Going to try and give autocross a try lol

Photobucket works very well.

Yup! I dont use it myselft, but tapatalk works well enough to post pics if you tend to browse the forum on a mobile.

jdmartin92, Are you trying to upload the pics directly onto ephatch (like as an attachment)?

Thanks for the help on uploading pictures! As you can see it worked, much appreciated!

But this was just testing out the beer tap shifter. The threads are not metal and are smaller than the shifter threads so I basically bored out the tap just enough to make it fit. Recently I made the threads to size using a tap and die, so now it screws the whole way down and it fits right though thats not recommended for ripping around in haha
