we aer that damn hard core. Did a little parts shopping today at a local junkyard, and if you know the northeast, we just got walloped by about 54" of snow over the last few weeks. it as no melted to about 30" or so. harder than a rock. but to explain all this crap, here are some pics.








Sorry if the are repeditive. kinda funny tho, the damn snow was clear over the hood. im in the red shirt, Shoddy116 is in the funky hat.

here is a link to a little video clip of out fun.

As you can see, we are that damn hard core.
Enjoy.

Wow am I glad Im in CA.

 

got damn, you guys must need parts that bad.....atleast wait til snow melts down some more to make your job alot easier.......

 

I would have done the same

What did you need?

 

daaaang

 

yeah...what did you guys get??

 

hood, wing, almost a fender, and stopped short at the rear tranny mount for my swap , two hours of snow digging/wrenching was enough

 

well we got the hood, the rear wing off another car, that i ended up clearing the snow off of it with my socket set case, rear wiper arm, and that damn fender.
I spent about 2 hours on that damn fender, and still didnt get it off. i shoveled and shoveled the snow away to get the door open to get those last few bolt out, and come to find out, the door didnt open far enough to get the bottom bolt out. then i get all the bastard ones out from behind the bumper, and the top is free, so i break off the bottom one's tab, then i can even get to the 2 on th ebottom of the rocker panel. there was a damn rock blocking the bolts. I WAS FLAMING PISSED

EDIT, me not spelling **** right.

ttt

 

you guys must be looking for a very important parts for you guys to go looking in that damn weather

 

we;; basically, i set up my body man to come one wednsday to paint he thing, so i need some parts pronto. but i think i got what i need, plus some other goodies.

 

 

damn snow really sux, but damn you guys are dedicated!

 

the only cars in our junkyards are from the 80's/very early 90's

 

Nice pics, I know what it's like to wrench in the cold. Which junkyard did you go to?

 

i know this is a honda site but any one know any one thats got an idler pully for a 96 eclipse GS (2.0L) need one really bad looked at one of the biggest junk yards around and did not have one some one want to help me out here

 

up here its been fairly cold but not much snow as you ny'rs but twice this week my doors were frozen shut and had to use the rear trunk to get in my car LOL

 

oh damn that has to suck climbing through the trunk.

I went to molt's in hyde park they have at least 20 tegs there. 1 2 and 3gen, nice yard. pull it your self tho. and the doors are mighty expensive. everything else is resaonable tho, and if you kind be cool to the guy tom, he'll hook you up.

they have crazy honda parts there. however right around the corner there is "east park" honda and acura specialists. they actually dont have a damn thing there. molts has 3 times as much stuff. that worth a damn. plus east park dont even let you look at the parts before you buy em, kinda shifty.

heres a link to more progress.

damn, that is hardcore!

 

I'd wish I were in CA too...untill the 25th bum asked me for a nickel in an hour.

 

Look fun! Is that DA Integra?

 

yes it is a DA, however my timelyness has been haltered. rod bearing helped, but not quite the ticket. i think the rod is word down and the crank as well. luckily before i got myself into this project, i had called around to find another motor. a yard 10 minutes from here has a 96 ls with 69k for 300. 6 month warranty too. so basically, i had the plan b from the get go. hopefully, i can still meet my deadline.
