So about 3 weeks ago my timing chain blew on my car. Thankfully it died right after a 6 hour drive round trip up to Seattle, right next to my friends uncle. So we pushed it in his driveway and it sat there for a week. Finally got it towed to my mechanic for a new engine and he had it for 2 F***ing weeks, took a long time but the install looks clean and the new engine runs great. I put the F23A1 into it, the stock motor was an F23A5 but they were the same price and I wanted Vtec.

So im just really pumped to have my car back, and Vtec with only 36,000 miles on it :driving:

Nice, did you have to swap the ECU and wiring harness for Vtec??? We should meet up sometime, I live in Beaverton.
