you've got a really fun project going here. I'm not usually a fan of roll bars if they aren't gonna be used, but for some reason it feels ok in a beater car like this. Makes me wanna gut my hatch and have a cage welded in... Ah, but I can't. Gotta keep it family friendly.

Ive always wanted a car with a cage. This car was ****ty enough for me to feel justified in gutting it. Might as well install the cage. My job prospect is looking pretty damn good. Once i start the job, i will have monies to drop on my project. Yayz!

Which wheels? The ones on my car? Theyre not THAT bad. Not my taste at all, but i dont feel like a homo with them on the car. Personally, i want some Rota Aleica rims in gunmetal.

Feedback. I needs it. My b20b had the FITV blocked off, and it never gave me any problems. Im thinking of blocking it off on my Integra. Any input? Here is what I would use.

B16 B18 Fast Idle Thermo Valve Block-off Plate | eBay



Yes?
Also, my dog is very sick. She may have Cushing's disease. I cried. I hope she makes it, Chloe is the best dog I've ever had.



Vet bill was $296 today. More tests Monday. I will sell whatever it takes to finance her recovery.

Damn...those wheels are sexy? You think you would be able to get your hands on a set? If yes is the answer, I say doooeeeettt!

*Edit: and sorry about your dog man...I just had to put down our best Boxer (and best dog ever!) a few months ago. It was really sad. I hope you have better luck then we did dude!

Thanks man. Before my daughter came along, Chloe was my child. Bottle fed her as a puppy. Best dog ever, bar none. On a lighter note...
The rims are around $700 shipped. Not many sets floating around on the net. Im running super low on funds, so until my dog is well and i have a better job, all my monies will go toward her. I will continue to tinker with the teg. Hopefully i will hear something this week from the fab shop i want to work at. 3yrs CNC setup, repair, op, and maintenance experience ought to help my chances.
