put him to work!

my daughter helps me with my car. if i'm cleaning it or working on it, she's there. my son on the other hand, he's always there when it's time to go to some car related event

on a side note, my wife talked about us moving to Japan, i talked he out of it by letting her know that i doubt i could remain faithful

I had to LOL at this, simply because its the truest thing Ive ever read. Whoever you're with, just look at the mom, fastest way to tell what you are gonna get if you're in it for the long haul.

Guys , need your opinion ...

Im planning going to the track for the first time on September , but my RTA's bushings are cracked , and Im kinda confused .

would be nuts and dangerous if I run them cracked ? Should I replace them now or later on ?

I know its gonna be such a pita just to remove the old bushings


what do you guys think ?

usually I cant stand kids, but i have an exception. my boy's nephew is like three and totally into cars too. I took him to world of wheels in Chicago and walked him around the whole day. that kid is cool as hell, we walked up to a blown chevelle and I point to the motor and ask him "what is that?" he says "oooh a blower!". then I point to the next car and he says "that's a bigger blower!"

the kid is smart, my boy and me we dropping the gas tank on his old EF sedan and his nephew comes up, looks at the tank, then goes and pulls a screw driver out of the drawer, picks out a Phillips, and comes back to try and unscrew the screws around the fuel pump. so awesome!

if your capable of doing it you might as well replace them now cause it will only make your car better. But its not necessary in my opinion, but that of course depends on how badly they are cracked.

Either way you gotta replace them... might as well do it before so you can run worry free.

So I just put my Prelude back on the road today, now that my truck is smacked up. I forgot the joy of driving a small car (even though the prelude is the big bertha of honda's!) Cant wait to get back into my CRX. The lude has a mean pull to the right.. especially while going fast and during braking. Thinking its more than an alignment issue.

I was also running a 6 puck unsprung. It seemed with the hasport it engaged really low and I burned through clutches rather fast.

Which one? There are two styles now. There's one with a couple pieces that bolt onto the tranny and another with pieces that bolt to a MC and kept near the pedal.

I love the first type.

K20EF8: Looking good man! Looks almost ready to hit the road! Those sw388's?

Chemist - Yes, but he's in CA and takes a long time. I had some company on ebay do my valve cover a couple years back and it turned out okay.

ANYONE have suggestions for staggered wheel set-ups? With the J's flares up front (need to install) I want to run a nice staggered set of wheels Work makes some wheels with a nice fat lip on them...so does BBS...hmmmmm
LOL, so you guys are getting into the wider lip/stance thing now too? At least you'll be doing it with flares and not just cambering the hell out of it.

AND on that note, if you are able to find a set, you can make a set of flares for an 85 Celica/Supra GTS work on and EF/ED, looks good if you trim at the molding line.
