thought I would post a picture of the shifter, It's a goofy cue ball, a real one, I made a threaded aluminum insert thats pressed into the cue ball with epoxy, I also made the entire shifter, that entire arm is made from one piece of round bar stock, I made the shift arm and turned the arm exactly like I wanted when I designed it. while the shifter was out, I rebuilt all the bushings with energy suspension, and made aluminum bushings for where the shifter attaches to the transmission. the shifter is nice and tight now. When I rebuilt the shifter I got some of the last Honda pieces for it in the world. They are now extinct. Pardon the dash, the new rebuilt black one is in the house, I haven't pushed the car out of the garage yet, not ready to swap dashboards yet.

probably about 25 years, I started working on Honda's when I was just a little kid in the 70's, I've gotten the chance to work on most of the generations

ive done many builds + parts/labors, the receipt is going to just keep piling and the $ spent wont stop..so far ive spent in my lsvtec was about 1300. then about 3500 in turbo parts then tune then blew it up. to get my car running again with boost and not blow up again, ive already invested almost 1500 for a turbo, piston and rods. thats just 3 things from my list of 100 (give or take)

gotta pay to play.

have to tack some mandrel bends together tomorrow to try and make the odd bend where my header tubes come out, the factory exhaust has this weird off set bend right at the end of the flex pipe , since the pipe doesn't line up with the heat shield under the car. have to put some tight bends together and make it all line up, then the flex pipe goes on the end
