well i would normally say that its a great idea to wait till after school, but I got at least another 5 1/2 years of school till i'm done. I've got about 1 1/2 years left of a biochemistry degree and then I'm planning on going to pharmacy school to get a doctor of pharmacy degree and that takes 4 years. So i don't think I want to wait quite that long.

and as for the money made off the hatch, its all going toward the new car cuz my parents loaned me some money to pay for some of the car and I have to pay them back.

The cruise control problem is probably the little rubber stopper on the clutch pedal switch has busted. To fix this you just need a new stopper which is like $2 from Honda, and it's very easy to replace. You will see the switch (a little button) at the top of the clutch pedal assembly and there will be a tab sticking out with a hole in it where the stopper would have been. Usually when it breaks it scatters all over the floor (it gets hard and brittle over time). The previous owner probably vacuumed it up while cleaning the car and never noticed. That was what happened to my cruise control. I put a small bolt in its place and put a nut on the other side and it works just like the stopper, just won't break.

Nice looking coupe. The rear end on the 99 to 00 civic coupe looks the best out of all the civics. Good looking civic man. I can't wait to see a project thread.
