I'm really OCD about some stuff. I have to complete the car to the best of my abilities because I care about it so much. I don't mind if my other FD is garbage but this one has to be the best I can reasonably provide. I put so much effort in to the car and it is almost done. I feel like I am in the home stretch of my original goals for the car and I'd feel pretty bad if I stopped now. It is pretty crazy but that is just the way I am. I don't think anyone who really knows me is surprised at all. I can see why people think it is nuts. The plaque isn't very functional but then again, buying the Spirit R gauge cluster, shift ****, ebrake and boots isn't really anymore functional than stock.

That said I would kind of want one too, its just a cool little thing to have, but I would probably get it framed or mounted on a plaque and hang it in the garage next to my rotor and housing from my first blown motor with authentic battle damage.

Hahahaha you win the internets!

If it sounds anything like the single tip than whoever gets this is going to be one happy/lucky sob!

It's from Stillway, a small rotary shop in Japan. I guess that's all, it's really cool I think...I would buy one if I could get it for the right price.

I was offered a Greddy elbow and some cash from my Stillway piece...but I've never seen another one in the states so I figured I should hold onto it. Also it has a big boss cast in at the back of the elbow..perfect for drilling and tapping for some auxiliary sensor/sprayer.

LOL, thanks. Three months and $thousands later, and I get trumped by an elbow with a different stamp on it.

Well the thread is for "Rare" parts and not necessarily expensive super high performance parts...

You'd "win" the latter catagory if it existed, hands down.
