Yep it was called ATTS or Active Torque Transfer System. My buddy is rebuilding one and having a hell of a time finding stuff for the SH.

I have to disagree with you my good man. There is never a time or place for a non painted body kit to be installed on your car. If it's half assed then it's rice. Installing a flat black plastic bumper that isn't paint matched is always rice.

that is rice IMO. I know a lotta people disagree, but leaving a body part unpainted for the sole purpose of showing it off is the epitome of rice. in short, people leave it unpainted cuz they think it makes their car look faster.

in reality, CF parts can be painted just like any regular old body part, so it should be. just because a CF hood weighs less than a stock one doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be painted the same color as the rest of the car.

plus having unpainted CF tends to make broke-ass individuals think they can achieve the same look by painting their hood flat black. I bet you that 8th gen sedan up above will probably leave his kit and wing that color.

if he ditched the wing, and painted the back and got new lights it would be allright, at that point i dont think it would be considered rice, however body kits are still rice imo

I don't think it's the size that matters.. it's the sound that comes out of it

Jason
ive seen this car in person

and i just sent this letter

Custom Honda Civic Hatchback ('91)

"hey man,

that thing looks siiiiiickkk!!!!! how many bhp's does it put out? looks like it puts out like 9000. 9000 bhp's you can actually use because when people see that car in there rear view, they know they better get the **** out of the way or you might rip there face off. Anyway, i was wondering how much your looking for? and what mods are done? pleas let me know as i have cash in hand.

Thanks!

- Chris p"
