        nice score. Bag it!

        I wish I could trade my heart for an extra liver, just so I can drink more and care less.

            I have been searching for another Honda for a while now, I can never find deals like that.

            Good luck on the project!

              I lucked out on this one, getting an auto trans to replace ASAP Friday. Then going 5 speed when I finish getting parts for it to be complete. Getting a full manual swap Friday as well for my green sedan (yes I still have both). I just turned 17 Monday the 21st and got paid Tuesday so total I have $600 or so. Got a lot to updated here, didn't have instant notification on so I thought no one was interested lol sorry for the late reply! Tomorrow will be updates on sedan and wagon. And the wagon will be slammed, static not bagged though

                  -TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REPLACED-
                  Only thing I've been doing up until today.

                  Got some goodies for the wagon while put today, tree in a can (she smelled just "old" I guess), transmission solenoids (didn't even need), a coolant return hose, and a kenwood 6x9 speaker (have problems with).

                  FIRST-
                  Solenoids, bought them for $12 with warranty at ecology for 30 days, go to start replacing them and notice I stupididly didn't push the sensor all the way in (causing the d4 light to blink), plugged it in. Light wasn't blinking, took her for a drive and she drives good I did the paper clip in the blue port to check for a CEL because before it would come and go, no code, hasn't reset battery. Drove it around and no CEL

                  SECOND-
                  I need help with this (I'm a noob in audio/electronics) I got the 6x9 and was about t to install but I noticed the stock speaker had 2 wires going to it as the 6x9 (like most speakers) only had one slot available. I put the stock one back because I didn't want to mess something up by cutting one of the two. Any suggestions on how to go about this problem?


                  LASTLY-
                  While up in Anahiem with my family at Disneyland, my friend Genaro came and traded my door panels for his extra cargo cover & net plus he gave me $20 on top installed it and love it, small things go a long way for me.


                  That's all in a days work (before I went to my actual job at 5pm), so tomorrow I'm going to take hereto get smogged and I'm hoping she passes so I can get the title in my name and get her insured so I can start building both the sedan and wagon will post WHEN she passes tomorrow :P wish her luck!

                    The left speaker is missing a prong for the wire to connect.. So, you'll have to solder it or get another speaker

                      But my other friends with wagons such as Frankie Figgs say they only had one wire going into the stock speaker? Do u remember if ur old cb9 had this as well?
