um no. i want a certain style. the 98-2001 spec irt 1" bb and mc. they look like pure sex. AND they are a direct bolt on to my factory brake lines (ok i have to move one line around but still) i don't have to re size or anything. i don't like the coffee can style ones that come stock on all of our cars.

yeah registration is going up october first to 85 bux from 55... it sucks. got registration and new plates taken care of. found out that by ADDING my civic to my current insurance plan that already has 3 cars on it (making 4 total) and making it so i am no longer the primary driver of my van, my insurance bill is actually going to drop 100 dollars total (every 6 months it's 100 bux cheaper). now THAT'S a friggin deal!

going to research some maaco paint jobs, just so i can get the car one color. it's currently about 5 colors not counting the engine bay. my mom also gave us the family's "old" camera. sister said it didn't hold a charge, although it seems to be working ok. one of the two tabs that holds the battery cover on is broken off, but i don't notice a problem. it's a cannon power shot a560. 7.1 mega pixles

SO I got bored, and decided to make up a list of things that I plan to do to the car now that I own it. Yes, I know a lot of it is stupid basic maintenance stuff, but it's still all stuff that needs to be done. Here's the list:

  • Repair body damage and have car painted one color
  • Install rear si sway bar
  • Install front fog lights
  • Re dye my oem floor mats (they are green, I want them black)
  • Finish my a6/z6/zc motor and install it
  • Have car chipped and dyno tuned for best mpg/performance
  • Either find a UKDM rear bumper with rear fogs in it or find a set of rear fogs with switch and buy them and install them
  • Install big brake set up
  • Buy new rims and tires (15" rims)
  • Replace rear rotors
  • Replace all bushings
  • Purchase and install a GOOD suspension setup (or atleast some short stroke shocks for starters)
  • Get an even better alarm
  • Install head light warning chime
  • Buy and install a limited slip in my si tranny
  • Install my DA map light
  • Make a custom head liner
  • FIND a JDM bumper that comes with the projector fogs, then buy it and install it (or find the fogs later and install them then)
  • Buy and install a new bumper filler bar (the thing between the bumper and hood/head lights.
  • Buy the parts (o rings, evaporator, etc) to put back together my ac set up.
So yeah that's my list as of now. It will obviously shrink much quicker if i had a job, which i'm tryin to get
