So it won't be cat converting anything? Oh well, I guess I was being too cheap. At least it shouldn't let my car overheat much more. If it a problem, I can keep the old one for now and change it on my next inspection that should be about six months from now. Or I can get this one, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HONDA...=p4506.c0.m245 . I'd still save money.

Nope, it doesn't have a catalyst. I have actually gone ahead and reported all of his "cat converter" listings to eBay for "intentionally misleading titles". I am sick of this BS on eBay.

What do you mean you can't post a new thread? I see people with 0 posts start their own threads all the time (that thread being their first post).

Sorry, I did start my own thread. The forum was not giving me the ability I have it now. I called it 1995 civic vtec engine performance, for those who are willing to help, and thanks for the reply's you guy's made. Additionally, I am new to the forum, so I had a little trouble finding thing's.

Problem taking out the timing belt. the alternator bolts are a pain to take out, very very rusty and my wrenches are either too big are too small. Damn it, it seems like I should of bought all my sockets and wrenches 3/8s. I hate those converter extentions.

Well, I've manage to get loose one of the alternator bolts. The other one is messing up. I could get it to turn with the twelve inch socket and the vasgrip is detoriating in. I officially hate rust and these small head bolts.
