It took me 2-1/2 hours to change my horn and 2 headlight bulbs on my car. Why 2 hours? Because BOTH screws holding my grille to my headlights are seized in place. So, I had to cut the tabs on the grille to carefully remove the front bumper... with the headlights still attached. We're good...
I think I'm going to switch back to halogen lights for a while. I want to work on a retrofit sometime after December (graduation). I'm picking up some PIAA Xtreme White Plus bulbs here in the next week or so since one of my HID bulbs is starting to fade into a darker blue.
I WAS planning on doing the exhaust this fall and maybe the suspension, but I've switched some priorities around. I really need to do some maintenance (brakes, oil, coolant, etc.) before Winter. I'm going to pick up a Gen4 Glock23 here in a few weeks... AND I'm going on a brewer tour next...
That TURDcel looks MINT!!!!!
My mom used to have an old '91 Turcel... 5sp, putting down a sick 75WHP-ish, same color. That thing never died. Then she traded it in for an actually mint '92 Accord.
Those 2 P5s look sad... and it makes me sad. That poor laser blue one sitting the Focus, an EH2...
Thank you Evan! Now I finally have SOMETHING under my feet in the summer. I don't drive with my flip flops on, so I have to put one under my right foot just for comfort... no more.
N00B question:
Are any of the eBay headers decent? I want to do my exhaust... before Christmas, but I don't want to spend an arm and a leg doing so. Since I'm not begging for sick power gains or anything, I'd rather spend the money on the rear section with a cheap header if possible.
I was trying to figure out why you had a fold-out tile surface... thinking maybe it was for hot surfaces? THEN I started using my eyes in a non-stupid manner and saw the hardware inside. And now I want a turbo...
On topic: Oil change this afternoon. And, I'm thinking about plasti-dipping my...
Drove 320 miles round trip to Indianapolis and back this week. Averaged 28mpg there and 27.5mpg coming home. Not too shabby I must say. However, I need brakes and an oil change now.
That's what I'm saying! You'd think they'd look in the fridge... just for fun. Nope. Didn't take any tools, the box of old Playboy magazines, nothing... just car care products. The town I live in...
Wash and wax! I didn't take any pics because I realized the bastards stole my wheel cleaner too... and I didn't buy any. And I still need to detail the interior.
Had to go out and buy all new car washing junk because SOMEBODY stole my bucket of goodies... right out of my garage. Nothing else, just everything I needed to wash, wax, and detail. They didn't even take the beer out of the fridge.
The weather was nice, so I loaded up the ol' Torque app and did some pulls on my way to work. I'd say 112HP is respectable for bone stock.

And yes, that 25mpg is just about right.
