He ships quickly...it's the only place to get them.

If by "rears" you mean the parts that are on the top binding the rear tub to the top frame...try majestic (hondaautomotiveparts.com). Just know that replacing them is just as much work as replacing a top. they are not elastic, so they won't "wear out"

I've cracked one to many headers over the years due to heat wrapping without ceramic coating them inside and out.

Also a lightweight flywheel was my favorite mod.why do you say it's a regret or nightmare?

and someone have the email for k&n because they never email me back and I'm trying to buy the heatshield and rubber and filter lol

Alrighty, just throwing this out here but you sound very new to cars, prob had a civic with a
"lightweight" flywheel, etc...

My honest advice is you need to learn a lot, and learn the right stuff, google for local scca track events, and a racing driving school at your local
tracks. Take a weekend class, ask your instructor about a lightweight flywheel.. and he will tell you to pay attention and stop talking about useless stuff.

I've been racing and building cars for over 15 years now.who the f@#k put you on a high and mighty horse.any weight off the rotating assembly that is balanced is good.helps the motor whined up faster and better throttle response.. and further more never insult me with some half baked sideways comment like u must have owned a civic.a.I'd never drive a shitbox civic and b. U meed to learn something yourself instead of trying to preach about something u don't honestly know besides from what you've read apparently and assuming wrongly only makes an ass out of u and me
