Hopefully will get the right bracket tomorrow. I plan on getting another truck with income tax, plus doing bodywork, painting and lowering the civic.

Man this pisses me off. So I thought I would give oreillys a chance with my business since I ended up getting the wrong part from advance auto. So sunday I tell them to order a driver side caliper bracket they said they will have it tuesday. So I go in there tuesday and get it. Ends up they ordered one for a 4 door so I get them to order the right one they said it will be here wednesday. Went in yesterday and today and they keep saying it will be the next day. I will try again tomorrow and if its not there ill def. say f*** you give my money back.

I usually never have a problem with advanced but I think the bracket I got from there was packaged up wrong. I just thought Id give oreillys a shot but I guess they blew it. I would have used napa but there isnt one here close to me.

Got the front brakes completely done finally, also decided to change out the trans fluid. Really glad I did because not a lot of fluid came out when I drained it. Ready to drive it in the morning!

It always amazes me when i get something small for my civic, either for the gsr engine or the integra brakes it has on it. I like when they ask me what make,model, and trim of the car it is and then ask me whether it's "the dohc" or "the vtec model". When I say both I can tell it just blows their mind. They always pause, like there can be no way to pick both answers simultaneously.
