asthetic: red calipers (subtle - but they look great)

I'm not overly tall so I can't say if it has any impact on headroom good or bad. Yes, it is removeable but is easier with 2 people unless you have a winch. This winch is also the way I store it. Take a look:

If you do an advanced search using my username and the word "winch", you'll come up with a few really good threads on the subject.

how often do you launch your car? is your diff being done under warranty?

I launch from 7600 so that the rpms done go down, but i dont think that just lauching it that hard is the only reason that it blew out, i need to stop driving it like a race car. When i get it back Ill drive it like an old man no more hard driving, and i'm not too sure if honda is covering the diff. they need to call me and let me know by the end of the day.

I haven't done too many modifications to my car, but the X-brace made a huge difference in the handling. I love it and I can't believe Honda didn't do this bracing themselves. I highly recommend it. If you think your car handles good now, wait until you put the brace on!
