    So I picked these up off of Amazon. I’m very familiar with Detroit Axle as I work with them often. These have a lot of real good reviews with the exception of squeaking pads after several months, so we’ll see. Was gonna tackle my o2 sensor but I didn’t have a socket or 22mm wrench. Might...

    I’ll keep listening and looking. I haven’t driven it much since I put the wheels on it oddly, lol. o2 sensor showed up. Might toy with that this weekend. Need to do the VC gasket on the GF’s Camry first tho. Hit up 2 junkyards this weekend. Found a black 0102 coupe bumper but it looked like...

    So there’s that. Looks so much better. They rub over bigger bumps and hard turns. Which doesn’t make sense cuz while they are 1.5” wider, they don’t poke *IN* but maybe a couple millimeters. They’re also only 0.3” taller than stock. Oil change, PS hose, plugs/coils, VTEC solenoid AND gasket...

    Thanks. Hope so. Still waiting til everything is done to get them on. While doing the filter housing, the TEC solenoid kinda sorta snapped off in the old housing so I’d to buy a new one of those. Fun times!

    TA-DA!! Had to drive 90min to get em. Dude was selling them for $350 but came down to $300 since I was driving so far. They’re not mint but they’re in really good shape. A couple paint chips and some real minor rashing but otherwise they’ll do just fine. Tires are a Barum Bravuris (Made by...

    WTB: 2001-2002 Sedan OEM Foglights

    Don’t ask me but aren’t they also on civics of that same era? Or maybe a CRV or something similar? Find a part number and google it and see what comes up.

    Saw that but it’s in Canada so shipping would kill me. Hoping to spend about that without the shipping lol. PS pump isn’t leaking. It’s the high pressure line that runs from the top of the pump back, down, and over to the rack. Oddly enough local O’reilly’s has it for like $75 but changing that...

    Bought a new PS pump, seal kit, and belt. Debating a new AC belt since it’ll all be off. Also still have all the stuff to replace the leaking VTEC solenoid. Have to order new plugs. I want new coil packs but they’re SOO expensive. I’ll probably just pick up a handful from a junkyard the next...

    Power steering started going. Pump’s had a slow leak since I bought it. Don’t have the money or gumption to replace it so I just bought a few quarts of Honda fluid and a suction pump and just did a reverse drain & fill. Lol. Sucked out the reservoir, filled it with fresh, ran the wheel lock to...

    Power Steering Fluid??

    Not knowing if the previous owner cheaped out and put regular fluid in or if they went all out and put the good Honda stuff in… what should I put in? Will it hurt anything to use the “regular” stuff? Not changing/replacing/draining anything. Just topping off.

    AC Compressor Differences/Issue???

    Had a 2001 v6 coupe. All factory AC parts. Bought a 2001 v6 sedan. Needed compressor, drier, condenser, etc. Bought a compressor from O’reillys and a compressor from RockAuto. Was told by the shop that neither would work due to some special manifold needed on the compressor that wasn’t on...

    You’re talking about the “Patrick star” wheels, right? Like this? I’m *AT LEAST* 600 miles from Michigan so even if you gave me the wheels for free I’d still spend a few hundred bucks (and 2 days) in gas. Assuming they were free… I’d be down for a road trip

    Lowering it is probably on the list. Nothing aggressive. Just a functional low. They need a 60 size tire to help fill the gap. I really want some UA7 TL waffles, UA7 base wheels, or UA5 fat fives. Or find some better wheels for the GFs Camry so I can take my civic wheels back lol. I also...

    I did. Specs are 205/50/16. Stocks are “supposed to be” 205/65/15, so… quite a big difference. Especially up around 80 They’re 16s and I love the look but they need a taller tire. Le sigh…
