:ohgodwhy: :denied:

Installed rad and intake, fixed the O2 sensor wiring, refilled the coolant system and fired it up for the first time this year :)

Race teams know what the hell they need, 99% of the people modding their cars will not, hell 99% of drivers won't ever race their car. Sure you can get a custom setup, but then you need to know exactly what to order for your car. If the guy can't be bothered to do anything beyond tossing on his old stock suspension he's not gonna know or care what he will need to get for his car, nor will he even be able to tell the difference between a basic coilover and a custom setup because he's not gonna be driving the car hard enough to make much of a difference.

Replaced the crummy old stock front north-south crossmember bushings with solid aluminum ones from xiiimotorsports, the nose of the car appears to be tweaked slightly as the front holes weren't lining up with the crossmember until I pried the crossmember over enough to get the bolts in.

Threw on my plasti-dipped gen2 speed wheels

Can't access your build thread but I would love to see it. Where are you getting it installed?

edit: wait I saw it at FT86, TSS eh? This is going to be damn sick.

started doing the two bucket method of washing at home in the parkade. So much cheaper than driving to richmond to use wand wash (I live dt).

Very impressed. Two 17l buckets from Home Depot $8 bucks, syn wash mit $4, 3.78 litres of auto wash soap from CT $12.99 (on sale).


No more need for driving all over the LML to wash my car :D

Don't forget the Grit Guard

Swapped out the winter tires... for high-performance all-seasons :alonehappy:

Gave it a nice wash to remove all the salt and dirt caked on it. Can't wait to leave this place.

I love that snails does 90% of his work in his living room.

Haha you would love my house then.

I use my bedroom and spare room to store numerous parts (including wheels), and I use my bath tub regularly to clean moldings and trim pieces.

Lol that feeling of sitting on the side of a wet road, holding up your spare with your feet as you line up the fucking bolts.

^I thought you put studs in that thing?

I did, however every car before this one I didn't. 10 years of driving with lug bolts you're bound to get a real wet ass on the side of the sea to sky highway. Never again.

Swapped out the winter tires on the wife's CRV. Replaced the spark plugs and rear differential fluid as well.
