im so amazed that i have easter off.. i normally work sunday but i got it off. might as well enjoy it while i can. What does everyone have plans this weekend?




So i went to go get some gas yesterday and holy ****, $4.21 for 87 regular... freaking ridiculous. I been contemplating between swapping to a B series or just boosting my D16z6.. after seeing the gas price i decided to swap to a B series, either LSV or gsr, then when gas price goes down ( hopefully it does ) i'll booost the B series since i have everything to boost a B already.

Been looking for a complete LS or Gsr, so far the few that i found is either too far or missing pieces.. Imma save up some money and just wait until a good deal pops up.. not really in a rush to swap or boost but i really wish i had that extra power..

I have a couple but most are of stuff most people have never heard of. most people who have stickers on their car don't really have the parts, so when someone sees stickers they assume this. they are also saying to the cops, pull me over and harass me.

there's still a big aftermarket for those cars, build it all motor and clean and you will have a unique car

I have a quick question. Can I use a b16 shift linkage out of a del sol in my 95 civic coupe? Some people say del sol linkages are only for del sol's and wont work. I put a b20z motor with b16 tranny in the car. Thanks
