anyone know a good zombie repellent? It's getting close to Halloween, and I'm tired of picking up half chewed limbs around the garage, they hang around my garage and leave that mess, and empty cans and beer bottles, and when you get on their cases they just say things like ARGGGUUGH, and try to bite you. 

so i got my integra running again and it drives a whole lot better. however the head was a rebuilt head and has 0 miles and i had to use my valves from the old head and it ticks so im guessing it needs a valve adjustment. other than that the car is running good.
now last night my civic was over heating when driving home. gonna need to look into that when i get a chance.
91savagecrx: car looking good as always. when is the turbo getting dropped in? what do you need to get it dropped in?

what's the issue exactly? if you're having trouble finding something the right size to hit it with, the best thing i have found is actually one of the long a/c pump bolts. 12mm head, goes through the a/c pump into the tq mount. perfect size.
if you already have something, and its just not budging, try soaking it with pb blaster or wd40 and if that doesnt help, try heating it up good with a small torch.

So im impatient, my steelies were showing rust spots. I went to home depot and picked up a can of spray paint and shot some new gloss back on them. they look okay from a distance. any suggestion on the best wat to repaint them? I also repainted my wiper arms. same out come. pics to follow tomorrow.
new mods to come soon, swaping out the one piece pos lights that dont work for em with jdm amber corners "bump" to tommi, and Honda Hx polished wheels. New speakers, amp, and subs.

best way to repaint them as far as rattle can or in general?
I have spray painted some wheels in my day and come to realize it all comes down to prepping the wheel or you're paint wont hold for anything. A good spray paint job will suffice if you arent looking to spend alot of money

clean the wheels up really good. wipe them down with some degreaser if they're really bad. scuff them up with some scotch brite or high grit sand paper and wash them off again. make sure they're good and dry n no water hiding anywhere. use some high temp primer, either wheel or engine paint. get a good solid coating of the primer on. let it dry. then use pretty much whatever paint you want. clear coat is optional.
