I pulled the throttle body and IACV off, cleaned, and replaced...I was hoping to fix an idle problem but didn't succeed. Oh well...

I am trying to aggregate information about best deal pricing at Honda dealerships to find out what the best possible prices are on Honda Civic Hybrids. If you are interested, the forums are open now and located at Cars and Gold.

O YA.... i won my auction for a 96civic 5speed
so I THINK only thing i MIGHT need is to buy a vtec computer for my 99ex since the 96 civic is a standard DX not sure if the computer would match up perfectly... but first things first get the car and then maybe sledge out the radiator support enough to fit a good radiator and test out the engine/tranny fully before removing anything...

IM SO HAPPY non the less... at least pretty soon ill have almost all the parts i need to do a 5speed swap. but depending what actual condition the car is in if ill decide to keep the DX a manual or swap the whole tranny setup in both and then replace the front dog house on the 96civic. have to search for some 96-00 front ends and make my choice/cost that id prefer. O YA SO HAPPY!

Today I smoked a newer Toyota Celica by a couple car lengths on the way to work with my stock 08 lx. Had to be the 1ZZ-FE. Bought a k&n typhoon for it today but that's another post...
