So I solved my issue I was having the throttle body was dirty. So we sprayed carb cleaner in it & I also put Seafoam in my tank.

I'm not. In the middle of playing phone tag with a potential job and filled out applications today. Just sucks going from making $1000 a month to $0.
I know how you feel man. Not having extra cash sucks like a MOFO. Hang in there man. Just don't give up

Here's an updated....
After having my rims on for a lil over a week a curbed the driver rear one at f**king Wendy's!!!!! So there is a ring that goes around half of the rim. I wasn't upset much seeing I have to touch up the paint on the other 3 anyways.

I have a job interview Monday hopefully I get it so I can have a source of income!

You need to lower your car buy some Tein springs they're pretty cheap and get your self an exhaust.
Once this job calls me back and I start getting paid coilers are the first thing on the list. Right now I am talking with a guy about a trade that will get me an Apexi N1 exhaust, new cluster with tach, and 99-00 head lights. This trade is suppose to be happening sometime this coming week. The problem is I have a complete bone stock non-vtec d series and I feel it would be kinda stupid to have an aftermarket exhaust on a engine with a small mount of power.

exhaust on a honda is mostly for sound anyways, it really does not give any hp on any motor. so its basically do you want to hear your car, or do you want it silent.

I mean i get that but to me if you aren't pushing a vtec or atleast a boosted car its kinda pointless because you have no power behind the sound. But if this trade does go through the exhaust will be put on my car so no worries. =)
