It's looking like if I get the GD back, it'll be by the skin of its teeth. we're looking at >$6K and almost 90hrs of labor. Probably somewhat inflated because its a comp. claim that doesn't impact my premium so they are going to push it as close to a total as possible..

I could be driving the autotragic soul-less Toyota for a few weeks.

 

Depending on which parts are damaged, you might want to consider doing a JDM front end conversion.

Otherwise, you should get some J's Racing parts and a cf hood.

 

Like when those Integra JDM conversions were the hype years ago. "If you get into a front end accident, might as well do the JDM conversion!"

 

Replaced my alternator today with one I found at a salvage yard. Can't get the belt tightened because the bolt is rusted to the point that it just bent when I tried to turn it. Now the belt sounds like it's screaming as I'm driving around. Almost like those whistle tips haha



How much trimming to make these fit?

 

Hello, Wisconsin.

 

I put on xenon lights to my new angel eyes headlight which I bought on ebay had an oil change too!

(New headlights: See user icon)

 

Installed these a while back but finally got some terrible pics.




Also since the temperature change I have no traction through 2nd into 3rd. It's awful.

 

started the car up this morning only to be greeted with a check engine light. Car runs fine like it did the other day, going to run a diagnostics using the flashpro after I get off of work

 

Sold my fancy wheels for $275. I will miss the good looks but not the high prices of low-profile tires...

 

Used my fit to carry used clothes that will be sent to the Philippines (typhoon victims)

 

Oil change and normal check on fluids and stuff. Its only 31k from 07

 

auto-cross'ed the fit today after owning it for 3 weeks. first time doing autocross.

bone stock, handled like a champ. having no torque sucks. lol

lowering springs and a front sway will be coming soon.

an atom showed up, too. i believe it was the fastest car there.

 

On vacation this week and have an appointment at Honda to do my oil change and since they are saying this winter is suppose to be bad, swapping out the aftermarket rims for the stockers. Got them out yesterday and cleaned them up and they look brand new. Was planning to have a friend work on the Seibon hood and clear coat it but with the winter they are expecting here, I might just put the stocker on and wait until spring to do the CF hood.

 

Front sway bar will make it under steer. I would go with a rear sway bay first.

 

May be getting her back on 12/2!

 

yea rear is what i meant.

 

Installed new wipers blades. Got 'em on eBay for 10 bucks. They work great but the passenger blade is a bit too long. Weird. Anyways, it's not too bad.

 

FYI, an Optima yellow top D35 will fit.

 

Don't forget to clamp it down! They WILL work upside-down however.
(dont ask me how I know...)

 

Been busy at work and only have had time to use up a few cans of
Plasti-Dip. Waiting for red "H" decals for the center caps... Installed JDM RH visor with mirror.
RSB is next.
