Some ebayers don't contact you after you have bought their items. Have you contacted them at all? Some that I have dealt with didn't even include a tracking number it just showed up at my doorstep.

I tried contacting them and I got no response. We'll see what happens. I only bought from this user because he had a new oem unit instead of the remanned racks from most companies. Oh well.

Man i need a good camera and photo editing skills...

Lol, my camera is so low end that it actually is funny. Sony a57 body, sub 500 bucks with a 200 dollar plastic lens. I'd love to have a nice camera. The car hobby is in the way though lol

That's strange. I recently ordered a set and they did come with castle nuts and cotter pins.

There are some parts you just can't beat OEM for.

I might have selected the wrong one or something. There were two of each part number, but listed as the same. Almost looked like a website mistake. No biggie.

Lol. I know how boring the parts are so I try to make it worth looking at.

The oem shifter and cable system might be fine for a car going to pick up some groceries, but in a performance car this setup is definitely lacking. It is unfortunately all too common that people are missing gears with K-series transmission which can be costly.
In a stock RSX or a swapped car a mis-shift from 1-2-1 or 2-3-2 usually results in a blown motor with a big ugly hole in the block. Using feedback from our family of racers, K-Tuned has come in and developed a complete shifter system to keep the gears going where they are supposed to be.
The K-Tuned Shifter 5th Gear Lockout comes with our Shifter Billet Arm. This 100% billet aluminum arm uses a durable delrin pivot ball with much tighter clearances than stock. We also fitted the arm with a stiffer neutral return spring to help remove shifter “play” or “looseness” that people commonly complain about. Now for the tricky part, the 5th Gear Lockout is like a guide that was designed to keep the shifter going into the correct gear.
Start with a billet template that fits over the base of the oem shifter box. On this base we designed a spring loaded pin to lock the shifter out of the 5-6-R section of the shifter. By doing this the user just needs to focus on shifting to 4 corners.
However we made it with 2 settings. When setup in the release setting, 4th gear opens the shifter up for a normal shift to 5th if needed. Designed to fit all oem shifter boxes from K20A/A2/ and Z1 engines and also the EM2 Civic shifter box, this part is like an insurance policy for your engine. Street car or race car our guided 5th Gear Lockout will definitely keep your gears going in the right spot.

I plan to have a pretty restricted exhaust setup. I'm old, I don't want to hear s*** out my exhaust.

Ha! I share the sentiment.

I believe your shameless attempt at getting people to check out your build link by changing anothers quote constitutes as thread jacking.

Id like to do a hated chassis like the ep3 or em2, even a crz. Outside of Honda, I'm only interested in the frs/brz. I just like small lightweights. Big cats with big engines seems to easy. I respect them, but it's boring.

If you do an ep3 then I'd get jealous yours looks better then mine. Lmao

I almost sold my civic to get an frs, but I was too attatched and read all the problems people where having with the new ones.

Brz!!!!

New cars are nice because they come built already. All that is left to do is to drive it and modify it if you want.

yeah, that's my attraction to a new car. I'm a bit OCD so i find a ton of little things i want/need to replace on these older cars. It gets a little annoying at times.


In other news, finally heard back from the Ebay user, my steering rack shipped out today (the day it should have arrived no later than) but he explained the delay.

 

[buzzbombtom]

well dont be a cock tease, do tell... what was the delay...

 

[ShinsenTuner]

[ShinsenTuner]

[SkylarIAm]

Dude was in the hospital. Contacted me and shipped it with tracking info shortly after. He did have a 100% feedback with just under 300 transactions.

It's a much better camera than mine but it just depends on if you know how to use it
