I would, but I'm not done with the project yet, and I don't have an image-sharing account with a third-party site so I can't upload photographs to this site yet. Once I get everything done in a few weeks I'll take a picture and upload it to "My Garage" because somehow local files can be uploaded there.

I have not touched my Fit in months. I keep thinking of just parting the damn thing and putting the motor in a different Honda. Then again I would really like to get it running a gain and drive the thing around because it's such a blast. I ha e just been lacking so much motivation

A few days ago I got a clear vinyl bra installed on the hood. Yesterday I took the 70lbs out of my car and have to wait about 2 weeks to get them back. I also orderded a few dashcams. One already arrived and I'm still waiting on the second one to figure out which car I want to put which camera in.

This cold weather, snow & ice is killing me -- hopefully this weekend I have time to install my Rokguard mudguards on. Also need to do another oil change and picking up snow tires tomorrow after work. 185/70R-14, a bit tall for the GD3 since they are coming off from a GE8 but it's better than the stock Dunlops on the Sport rims. General Altimax Arctic, the reviews aren't terrible.

Robbed some parts off of the fit for the integra I'm going to race this weekend. Brakes and wheels. Someone needs to buy my turbo kit so I can put a vague in my fit so I don't have to race everyone elses.

Installed Megan cat-less downpipe, replaced serpentine belt and cabin filter, changed the oil. When I took the stock cat/downpipe off discovered the DME header was cracked and broken off where the gasket goes, popped the header off and welded it up. Ordered parts for the CDV delete.

I didn't personally do it but new clutch and finally got the rear engine mount replaced. The clutch is a spec stage 4 and right now it feels good. The pedal does need some adjustment though.

Damn!! You better be running a K swap with a turbo and NOS to need that stage 4 clutch lol.. If you aren't running forced induction the most you could need is a stage 1
