Ah, ok. I've always been doing longer distance but always wondered about the shorter distance.

Are the "Aftermarket Pollen Filters" at the very bottom of this page, http://handa-accessories.com/civicsi.html, the filters you replace behind the glove compartment?

yessir. but once shipping is added in you can get them for basically the same price at walmart.

Thanks, so are they pretty much universal then? I know there's a how-to video on here somewhere on the install, i'll watch that again and see what he mentions

somewhat, it's like an airfilter or oil filter. you just buy the one with the number that corresponds to the car

are ep3 and em2 front LCAs identical?

Yes they are and I'm 90% sure that the 02-04 RSX front LCA's are the same too.....the difference is in the bushings. I'm not sure if the EM2/EP3 bushings are different but the RSX bushings are a lot stiffer. RSX guys usually have to loosen up the LCA and the rear knuckle to do suspension work.

I am wondering if anyone has dealt with cheaphondaparts.com? I see they are selling the HFP kit in all colors except for the Lip where they state they only sell it in VBP.

I put on some new extended lugs on one wheel yesterday (which I will never do again without the right tools) and I obviously just hand tightened them back on. I really cranked down on them, but I feel like they're nowhere near as tight as the regular lugs that were air-gun tightened at the shop.

Should I be worrying about them coming loose at all?

what did you tighten them with?

shops with air guns typically overtighten lug nuts by a lot (like 300 ft/lb plus vs the recommended 85 ft/lb)

also, you put them on the stock wheels in your avatar or something else? if they are on the stock wheels you can't run them because they have a tapered seat vs the OEM ball seat.
