small update. i temporarily put my valve cover, header and intake manifold on so i can work on wiring. not going for anything TOO crazy, just a mild "clean up the wiring" tuck so it looks more presentable.

so far it looks like ***, but that is because i'm no where near done.

 

did more work today. engine harness is almost done! then the easy part, the car harness.

 

aye where's your bro in law? does he still log on here?

 

get some sleeving on them thangs!

 

keep it up yo! lookin good

 

Thats PFC Burks bro in law to you! haha

Ryan, I may have some sleeving that I was going to use on the Y8 laying around in my bottom box. You know, the black sexy stuff that costs like, 40$ a roll and 40$ for shipping lol Ill shoot 10ft your way when I can find it. I got RSP this weekend. And I am hella beat so I dont feel like doing anything lol

 

 

Oh gee pick on me eh? eh? eh? Pissed off to say the least though, I was supposed to be a PFC but my college transcript needed to be updated, so I am still a freakin PVT. dam it.

 

whats PFC ? lol seriously thoe

 

Private First Class senior. Thank god for the GI Bill. Get 4500 for classes, and I also get paid about 300$ for every class I take and pass with a C or better. Looks like math, engineering and a few other classes for me when I get back

tomorrow I am gonna see if I can dig up some of that sleeving stuff I had and give him some if I find it. so it SHOULD help him out lol

 

I don't think i could last being on a train without wanting to bust a mural on the side of it.

 

as long as i don't have to tear apart what is already all taped up and clean looking i'll use it. but i have to de pin and tear apart what i have done... then it's the plastic loom for me. harness should be done tomorrow.

 

lol i'm down! seems like you make enough to get by with some extra padding... lol only problem i'd have is i'd get hired on being marginally over weight and retire the size of a hot air baloon

 

well my order from honda automotive parts dot com says my thermostat and gasket, timing belt and vtec solenoid gaskets should be here on tuesday, my birthday. going to do hella wrench time tomorrow, and i have to get a new thermostat housing from the yard as well... mine went mia!

 

railroad has no weight standards...perfect example is to look at me one of the main hubs is in portland so when i see that they are hiring out there ill let you know and you can use me as a reference for train service...trust me you need to know someone to get in...fully paid training with no experience required and the least that you will make is $2200 minimum (guaranteed) bi-weekly sitting on a extra board...the conductor extra board for thru freight is paying at $3700 bi-weekly right now per union contract...!!!

 

oh shoot! I will keep an eye out my self! I deff. need some better income. ladies are expensive! lol thanks for letting me know. lol no weight restriction. i was worried about my self gaining too much weight! i guess i'll just have to bust it at the gym if i got a job

 

i need one of these jobs also!!!

 

the railroad gives you a free membership to 24 hour fitness + other benefits as well...!!!

ooooooo sweeeeeeet. i've always liked trains too. that'd be cool... i have me a grip of lionel trains chillin in storage. I will deffinately keep an eye on things.

as far as my civic goes, yes, i did some work for it today. i decided that i was tired of tripping over my trans, and that i would attempt to tackle replacing the bearings on the countershaft. well i got it done! all new bearings are in the case and on the countershaft (not including new syncro bearings or diff bearings). gotta finish "pressing" (i don't have a press so... we'll see how this works) in two bearings into the case, then i'll have it reassembled. oooooooooooo i'm getting super close to having my baby back!!!!!!!

alright so here's what i still need to buy/get done

install oil pan/gasket and torque to specs
install timing belt
install vtec solenoid gaskets
install thermostat
salvage a new thermostat housing from the j/y, mine some how went missing
purchase a new throwout and pilot bearing, i was told the ones i had on there were new but eh good security any ways
resurface the fly wheel
degrease and prep the trans for paint
paint the engine and trans
