I'm not into tint myself, just rock Oakley's in the summer when the sun's out. That white coupe's set up looks good though!

Man it was mint. I'll try and look for my old build thread. The interior was absolutely flawless. It had a lot of electrical issues and it was an automatic. Traded it for an integra, sold the integra, bought a del sol, sold the del sol, bought this. Had a blazer before all that. And I'm only 19.

Vacuumed out the car today. Pulled the back seat up to clean out from under it and found some things. Found a bunch of change, I'll report back with a total. Also found an old weed baggie. Probably the funniest thing I've found in any of my cars.



Bag had some stems and flakes in it.
Change pile!

Much better:

lol nice, looks like a guitar pick and a socket there too. I always take the back seat bottem out in any car I own or any used car that gets traded in at work. Never know what you might find under there.

Yep couple cigarette butts too. Along with some young adult christian paperwork. Can't be too much of a saint with all that I found.. lol

Planning on fixing up all the oil leaks soon. Was gonna wait until the transmission work, but I'm tired of buying oil.

So... Vtec solenoid gasket (upper and lower), distributor o-ring, and oil pan gasket, all gotta get done soon.

Yeah I hate oil leaks. I already replaced the distributor o ring on the y7 im putting in my car, but I still need to put an oil pan gasket on it. Then she should be all sealed up.

I have no idea how to set ignition timing so that'll be a learning experience.

and I don't have a torque wrench either so the oil pan gasket will be fun too.

But I've replaced a couple vtec solenoid gaskets, and those are beyond easy.

Pretty much on the distributor just put it back on exactly the way it came off. And for the oil pan gasket just snug the bolts down in a cross pattern, just dont tighten them down extremely tight and you should be alright.
