Oh my. Im gettin excited now.

[jalenda9]

Thanks snazzy. Its going slowly but surely man...its been a struggle the past couple of weeks because my dog got cut really bad somehow on her foot while I was asleep. anyhow, ended up needing stitches and boom $300 gone. Lol you can't win em all

[Shogunate]

Damn that sucks. Keep up the updates.

[SnazzyQ]

omg is your dog ok?

Yeah its unfortunate but hey shit happens.

Also what kind of dog do you have? (is it obvious that I love dogs?)

[jalenda9]

Yeah man she's the trooper of my three poops. Said trooper pup/conehead(she's not fond of that name):


Also my brother with that other Honda that were doing a manual conversion on and hooked it up with a come along to try and address my front end.


Also she's a beagle mut little thing haha she's a cutie though and she's sweet. Her names navah and I say she's a coffee bean

[jalenda9]

Well im back guys with some updates. Me and my brother made the two hour trip to Lansing mi where my car is sitting and got to work on it. So I started by getting the old valve cover on along with a new OEM gasket while he put the steering components together and I followed with a torque wrench.


The biggest issue is that the car needs and obvious alignment and is the camber is positive and is visually noticeable. Also the toe seems to be a little off. I installed es rear sway bar bushings.

There's a guy my mother knows in her complex who works at a dealership and I met his son and he owns a little 2 liter jetta but he told be he's going to h20i and it all started with him asking about me selling my quick release haha. Anyhow, really cool kid and his dad said he's going to give me some wheels for free. He said they were two piece american racing wheels that he's had since 98 lol so idk what they look like. Anyway, sorry for the rant..pics:






I relocated my overflow container in front of my wheel well where I removed the washer reservoir. I also deleted my cruise control. I just need to get rid of ac because I rather roll down the windows and possibly depower my steering rack or convert it to manual...just because haha.

[SnazzyQ]

noooooooo dont get rid of power steering. I **** not having it. stupid civic

Also cant wait to see dem new rimzos

[jalenda9]

Not even secured in place or anything but just set it on there to see what's crackle-lackle-lating:

[SnazzyQ]

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

hurry up and finish them

[DeltaAlpha9]

Every winter I contemplate deleting my A/C to clean up the engine bay. Then summer rolls around and it's 25 degrees out while doing a road trip and I'm happy I have never followed through. I also spy an overtorqued headlight bolt haha.

[jalenda9]

Haha yeah man I'm used to no ac. The only time I ever feel it is in my tech class lol. Eitherway, good eye with the bolt haha wouldn't be the first one haha

[TWM Performance]
