Default New to Hondas...

Group of friends and I just purchased a Honda Civic with a fully rebuilt B18C1 motor. Just curious, but those professional drag racers - does anyone know how often they would take out their motors to get it rebuilt again per season?

Good Luck with that.

A car is like a child
Sharing a car with friends is like getting married to them.

Congratulations
Wait till the honeymoon is over

P.S. More than 50% of marriages end in divorce
P.S.S Hope your looking forward to the custody battle

I could not let anyone borrow my car. Except for my girlfriend but you're pretty much obligated to...and doesn't mean I'd enjoy it. If you're driving in my car you better be ready for some rules. ****** friends I be nice and finally allow them to smoke and eat in my car...what do I get for it? A pile of ashes burnt a hole in my otherwise perfect backseat, and doritoes and melted candy (which stained my carpet) scattered around the interior... NOBODY would borrow my car. BWAHAHAHA

I had the same thing happen. I stopped letting people eat when i found a stash of taco bell wrappers under the passenger seat. Thats when i put the ban on. I do eat lunch in my car everyday but i'm carefull about that.
