Haha Yeah no a/c does kinda suck. But I guess I'm use to it. Id rather drive with the windows down anyway. Only times I really wish I had it are for the nasty humids days we get in Ny. I'll be making the 15 hour drive to Tennessee for IA this summer with no a/c lol

Not having ac sucks, even in MN. Humidity is a bitch.
Okay we finished up with the clutch job early yesterday morning, so we take it for a test drive and my dad did a burn out in my sister's car to "test out the clutch" hahaha! It was a pretty good time.

Tennessee gets hot, muggy days... IA last year was an oven!

I roll with the windows down all the time! Only time no AC sucks is when you are sitting in traffic on 90+ days with midwest humidity!

And wow, that is one hell of a drive... Mine will only be 4hrs from Cincinnati to IA. This will be my first year. Probably roll down with a group of friends... Hopefully I will have a few engine goodies by that time!

Oh, and today its 50 degree's out here. I actually get to work on my car to do a few small things to it! w00t!

Yeah this will be my first time going as well. By then I should have a new motor in the car!

I'm jealous of 50 degree weather. I want that. lol
It was in the mid-high 30's today, and that's the warmest its been in weeks.

Speaking of A/C, I have it in my car but it doesn't work lol. It may be a bad relay somewhere in the back of the unit in the dash. I've got service records from the previous owner, and it's been in for service a couple times and nobody can figure out what the problem is... there aren't any leaks anywhere. I do know that the outside/recirculate button sometimes doesn't like to light up when I press it, so it might just be a bad signal or something. If that's not the case, I'll just rip it out. I don't care for A/C anyway, because I'd rather have open air blowing through the windows, rather than the stale, cold air hurting my eyes.

I had them. I wouldn't say they're *the* best, but as far as value for dollar paid, I would say they're pretty f-cking amazing.

My plan is to order a B16 Sir II from HMOtors in 2 months.
Do a clutch/flywheel, timing belt, a few gaskets and such and throw it just in time for Spring

u shouldnt heat shrink the whole harness.. should use the mesh loom and heat shrink where they meet... much cleaner and flexible..

Lucky! Any idea what they charge for shipping? When I do my swap I want to order from there possibly.
So what do you guys think about steering wheel choices, I want to get either a Nardi rally deep corn or a Personal neo grinta with red stitch? I was thinking suede for either one too to match my ITR's.

Here's a pic I found on the rare rims thread, he said it's the STI blue. I think it looks really good, and it's just noticeably different that ebp. (He's even got white wheels too.)
