Lets keep it Alive!!!!
The shop owner had a intermediary call. No big suprise there. He said the quote is a little high at $2700 and a more realistic area is about $1250. I said maybe I should take it down to Diamond Bar Honda and ask them how much to rebuild the motor.
It's what I was expecting though. I told him I also want to be reimbursed for the services rendered at the location and he said he will work it out. So it looks like I will be getting something around $1250-1450

sounds like good news with the shop, hope you get the longer end of the proverbial stick. if you have the tools for it, Watanabe motors sells d-series engines for dirt cheap - between $150 to $300 depending on the version. it only took me and my dad a weekend to swap my crx's engine without a cherry-picker

Yo! umm... nun much, car's out of commission forreal this time. tranny died on me.
hahah oh yeah, i went to the hospital to get my chin sewed back together. i was attempting to do some ninja-type flips and FAILED. i'm all in one piece now, thanks for asking!
eek, that's two boosted Fits with a new transmission. yours and gd3gymkhanawannabeaoihgahgagpj or whatever his username is LoL... kinda scary
. sorry to hear about that dude, what's causing the tranny failure?

.... jk!!! <3 sorrry, i had to.. but on the real, good to hear.bout the tranny, I have no idea. when i brought it to the shop, they found a hold in the bottom of it. all my fluids leaked and so i was driving around with no fluid for a bit. I dont know but i'm kinda suspecting my LSD had something to do with it. maybe not changing fluids as often as needed? .... anywho, there's another person on the boards who was running that same LSD as me (not sure if he wants his name mentioned) and his tranny went out after 6 months of having it in and he suspected the LSD as well.... I've had mint in for about the same amount of time.... so i dont now? ... used tranny alone was $1000+tax.
and i need a new tune... so hopefully i get my car back in the next two weeks, before class starts. *humph* i'm depressed...

Yeh...I saw a segment that they do on channel 4 that said those engine/fuel injector/transmission flushes are not even recommend by Honda and it is more harmful than good because when they go in and flush it most of the time it just loosens the dirt and the while you are driving it that dirt comes off and now you engine/transmission is toast....They showed a bunch of peepz that got messed up from this scam...Just say NO...

I have a SCIV stick for my PS3. The SFIV stick is insane though. Too bad you can't pick which figure you get for the collectors edition. At least I get the movie on Blu-ray.

First time was at work. Second time was right outside my house. I never leave the gas door open.
