Slapped a new belt and it fired right up back in November. Been running just fine since. Nothing new with the car other than the addition of 10 tons of salt from the PA/DE roadways.

 

Either I'm tired of the car, or just annoyed with the weather making me pissy. Rear brakes froze up yesterday and make it impossible for me to move the car. back wheels were just dragging along. I believe the e brake cable/bracket etc froze in the "engaged position"

Rad cap failed and sprayed coolant everywhere, almost overheating the car running on no coolant. Fixed that and the next day a heater hose behind the motor started leaking. Went through almost 3 gallons of coolant and took 2 coolant baths trying to find the leak and while fixing it.

Passenger front door handle snapped off since the door was frozen. Driver door locking and handle system stopped working yesterday since the locks on that side were frozen.

CEL popped on for code 54 (CKF). Hopefully, it is just a minor wiring issue since I have that bypassed.

Axles still clicking like a 'mugg, just waiting for them to snap lol

Winter sucks; come on spring time

 

Finally getting warmer in my area. Door handles have been replaced with sedan handles for the shaved keyhole look. Paint doesn't match 100% but oh well. CEL from early last month has been fixed as well. Still rocking the junk axles that click pop and groan through turns. It's funny to see people's faces when I turn at full lock (parking lot for example).

 

Axles were swapped out this weekend. No noises now. Pulled the wink mirror and the Pioneer headunit, too.

Picked up a 2003 Maxima as a second car, but now I am looking at making that my DD. I think it's time to start moving on, so this seems to be the "end" for the teg.

 

Damn you went through some stuff with car I see. I like the teg.

 

Thanks man. Surprisingly enough, I sold the car today. Depressed isn't a strong enough word for how I feel, but I know I had my fun with it over the past 2.5 years and it is someone else's turn now. I definitely won't miss all the little problems it had, but it wasn't something you could avoid when driving a 17 year old car.

When I showed the car to the new owner yesterday evening, we had 3 separate groups of people come up and tell me how nice it was and how they want a jdm front teg. That's what I miss the most already, the compliments. It seemed like everywhere I went, people would be sticking their thumbs up out the window as we passed. The car was gorgeous, probably the sexiest car I have ever owned, and it is only a memory now... I wish the new owner nothing but the best.

My bro lent me his Canon 60D this morning. Those pics will be posted in here as we all say good bye to the Integra one last time.
