maybe its just me, but i dont see the point in trying to fix up a salvage title AUTOMATIC pos.

clear title (believe it or not) automatic that also happens to have everything but the transmission (in a local boneyard) to swap out the autotragic

Pull the B out of the GSR, throw it in the hatch, and throw the D into the GSR and sell it as a shell lol.

i remember todd saying that

anyway, heres this weeks plan
- put a boneyard gsr motor in my gsr (so i can at least drive it)
- replace the snapped rod in my original motor
- put original motor back in the gsr
- put the boneyard motor into my civic
- boost?


well my fist hurts, but at least I finished pounding out the dent in the roof from where i stood to jump on the windshield one night

I also...
- took out the passenger seat, vacuumed under & behind it before the vacuum died
- ripped out the left fenderwell plastic bullshit
- drove her home using our vans license plate


tomorrow's schedule...
- finish vacuuming everything out (driver side, rear, rest of pas. side)
- figure out what is making such a loud noise under the hood
- figure out why it pulls hard to the right

That thing is gonna look a whole lot better when you get it all painted. Post up some pic whenever you do get it painted.

thats more than coils

its the entire 99/00 Si rear suspension/braking system. discs, calipers, springs, shocks, etc. etc.
so im gonna take off the old s**t, put the new 3" coils i have on the si unit and hope they fit, and then put the si stuff up into the hatch and hope everything works.

any updates on the hatchie?

nah, hopefully tonight i can get a couple things done...

today / tonights plan
- fix driver-side window so i can finally get some air
- bolt the muffler down because when idling, vibration can get loud
- go get a new plate. been driving it around for a week or so with a plate for our van
- clean out the interior
- unstick the gas pedal. kinda has a hard spot when lightly getting on it sometimes



tomorrows plan
- finish cleaning out the interior
- clean the windows
- adjust the front coils, which probably like always wont happen


but one of these days im gonna call around and try to get a nights/weekends job so i can start making some more money so im not being drained from my truck payments
