trustdestruction's Civic del Sol Si Project
turns out the problem wasn't lower ball joints, it was outer tie rod ends. Anyway, I got paid today so I went and got new outer tie rod ends and an alignment. 2 steps closer to boost! (quite a bit left to go though...)
Got a braided steel ground strap for cheap from a guy on Honda-Tech, and a new shift ****. Saw the shift **** and decided I definitely wanted it, and i'm glad I made that decision... it's sick. Old one is for sale on my for sale thread.

Also, I adjusted the clutch pedal the other day and engagement is way smoother. Also, the clutch seems to have more clamping force shifting in the higher RPMs than it did. I think it's due to the clutch being smoother that it is making it easier to quickly feather the clutch.
6 if you count stock
first one was stock
second one was metal and i got rid of it because it got too hot in the sun.
third was B&M and it was universal fitment with plastic "threads" and i got rid of it because it was a piece of crap.
fourth was stock again (new though)
fifth was the black round one, the first one i really liked
sixth is this one
