So the 240 is getting less and less of a nice car to drive on the street (when and if it was not broken, haha) so i decided to get a daily. at first i was thinking of getting a wagon or something with four doors like a old corolla but it was getting hard to find and some deals weren't working out. i was getting pretty down about it and all the while my BF was loaning me his EG to drive. i was coming quit accustom to it, so after months of not finding what i originally wanted, a 72 corolla wagon i decided to get a civic like Billy's.
i knew a friend that had this one setting at his house collecting dust and it was perfect! my plans are nothing crazy, make it comfy and fun. something i can drive everyday and something i can take to the track on the weekends... so here we go!

ASR Sway Bar & Brace came today... been on back order for about a month, still waiting on my F7 LCA's
5/29/11
So finally got my F7's and put on!
Car handles awesome! haven't found its limit yet, it just keeps asking for more, haha... I took it to The Valley of Fire and had some fun. Got it up to115mph throw there and was taking turns at 70~80mph! Definitely gets your heart going...
I also did the Amber light conversion.
It turned out good, but i think one of the bulbs at the 60mph is out. im not too happy about pulling out the cluster again cause its a bitch!
And for the bad news...
Have to change my head gasket. womp, womp, wah....
That's all for now...
Stay Functional Kids!
