How is your oil consumption? I had an issue on my last b16b where it would drink oil. Instead of a pcv valve on Honda oil separator box, mine had a straight through fitting. Intake vacuum was wanting to draw oil up into it, and as soon as I hit the gas the the oil sloshed to the back of the block oil sucked into the intake.

Unrelated, I hate draining catch cans so I an not running one. I put together a drainback line. It's line off the back of the block, fat enough to not allow oil pushing out. I run it into a clear filter then up to a breather filter at the highest point under the hood at the firewall just behind the intake manifold.

Awesome man! thanks yea its crazy how long ive had this car now, almost 20 years! I have a almost new 2020 10th gen civic and a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT with 500+ WHP and I rather drive my Integra to work everyday! gets pretty good MPG as well. The tune feels perfect and again one of my favorite things is my trans shifter setup! the gear box feels so precise, and shifts are butter smooth and snap in each gear! feels awesome going through my gears!

My oil consumption is still about the same pretty consistent about 650 miles it consumes about 1/2 quart, I just keep an eye on it and top it off, it doesn't burn out the tail pipe or smoke at all!

My new catch can setup seems to be working great! it's getting cold outside now and I start my car at 5am when it's really cold and the catch can collects all the condensation, doesn't fill up with oil just the fuel vapor/ condensation.

I have it mounted convenient and it's just 2 10mm bolts and the 2 fittings to unscrew and it can be removed and drained easily.

Yea insane, I guess God really protects my car knock on wood...

The day I get my own place in the garage it goes! When that day comes, I plan to do a full paint job and really get the thing looking clean again, door jams trunk jams and maybe even do the engine bay again. And put a OEM ITR wing on this time, even the replica is a bit bigger than the original so I really want a OEM wing when it gets re painted.

Speaking of paint, the ceramic coating I did a few years back is still holding up very well!

I'd really like to get the wing front bumper and a few hard-hit areas covered in PPF once it gets repainted, I actually have a roll I never used.

I noticed my rear wing got fd up from the car wash, for some reason the top of my wing looks like someone took a razor blade and went to town! no other spot on the car is like that, in fact my 2020 civic has the same damage on the small wing I have as well,

I plan once it warms up to hit the top of the wing with a fresh clear coat maybe even a new base coat because I'm not sure how deep the marks are, but they are deep! I'll do the same for my civics wing. Once I repaint the wings Ill cover them with PPF and try not to use the car wash anymore, it's just convenient ang I get so lazy plus it's hard for me to wash my cars in the appt complex I stay in.

Carport? What kinda rich people crap is that? JK, I’m kinda jealous. I miss having garage space for all my stuff.

I’m over here hoping to knock down this random section of wall in my driveway this year so I can get the Ridgeline off the street.
