I LOVE MY CAR!!!!!!!

Ok for starters, I have no Vtec, and rev limiter is at 5k. Also no speedometer, GPS takes care of that though.

Now to the good stuff.

My car is definitely faster! I checked in a location where I had a speed before, and after, and it was a little faster... so once my vtec and rev are right I'll be WAY faster. Shifting was a little difficult to get used to with that shifter, the clutch engages rather suddenly, unlike the diesel trucks I was trained on :p, but once I got used to it ITS A BLAST!

Even with all conditions.... I can chirp second gear!!!

Once the harness is in, I'll be able to chirp third too ;)

I'm in love with my car. :love: :love: :love:

And btw, the comments leading up to me coming home are hilarious. I'm happy I didn't see ken posting that crap while I was taking finals -_-

Sorry it took me so long, I was picking up a... Celebratory mod. Everyone who comes to the memorial day bbq will get to see it. Although I'll only be there for a little while. Thanks everyone for reading this thread and encouraging me, it helped!!!

See ya later!:booty: :driving:





JK I'm still here.

All said and done, with the tranny all the parts and everything... ended up being about 2200. Add on another 500 for Richie's harness when he gets it to me.

Not all that much more than a rebuild. Sorry ;)

I came out lower than I was anticipating. Now no one else better ask me the cost -_-
