While you wait on the rest of your order, can you ship me those? I'll just be "borrowing" them.

i'll let you guys know if/when they're up for sale
as far as my engine, it is definitely f*cked
at least a blown head gasket, something to do with the camshaft and timing, possibly something with the radiator, maybe water in one of the cylinders...
if it's really bad, i'm thinking about parting out and investing in a 7th gen or maybe a prelude

might be a bit time consuming lol can you drop an h22 in place of the j30?
Nah man, that resulted in my tranny slipping lol.
But i honestly don't know how or why it over heated =/
I don't know if extreme humidity + SRI = that
But i was just doing a normal 70-75 on the free way and about 55-60 on the main roads, saw the heat gauge all the way up, freaked out, layed off the gas and it just shut off right before a parking lot.

Aren't you supposed to crank the heat when your car is overheating?

Yeah, it helps, a little. When the needle spikes, you should always immediately shut off the engine.
You probably just have to mill the head, get a new gasket, etc. Be sure to do a pressure and leak down test, hopefully you didn't crack the block.

Man so sorry about the motor! Are you having the car looked at to figure out what it is? I'd be curious to know. Would hate to see the car go but ultimately it's about you being happy.
Even more so than the engine, I am sad about you not putting on the shocks/springs. I was going to live vicariously through you since I couldn't get my shocks/springs on yesterday.

Haha this is pretty much what the mechanic told me when i was getting it towed.
This would be my best case scenario so i hope that's all i need.
