SuperPickle Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Well, maybe a little shameful... Anyone wanna throw some stuff at a poor ex-Marine trying to restart his life in Boston? Pleeeease... -My piston rings are done. -Center console got damaged when the stereo was stolen. -PO put tiny, tiny tires on it, so I'm paying for 85mph and getting 60mph. -The bushings are shot. -Exhaust leak, which I can fix tomorrow (uncle lent me the three bucks for a flange gasket). -I think it might actually prefer to run on oil, the way it goes through it. -I now get to drive to Boston tomorrow night without a stereo (might be able to Jerry-rig something out of two speakers I found in the trash yesterday, though). But hey, at least she runs! Well, walks. Okay, stumbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPickle Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Going even further off-topic. Santa needs to pony-up the parts necessary to convert to a 5-speed... Anyone else ever mistakedly try to shift into "fifth"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPickle Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I found an 'extra' bolt in the spare tire compartment last week. That brings me up to: -1 14mm bolt. Since I'm also missing bumpers, is it possible to be in the 'negatives'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airjockie Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Of those wheels, these are the best:13x5.5 Mugen CF-48s with Advan A008's Mugen Fan Clutches forever! The only wheel that holds a candle to the Advan Oni for JDM cool... Yup. More function than form...and I wish all wheels were like them. First, the hub is Aluminum, and finned just like a fan clutch, so the hub will absorb the heat from the rotor or drums, and disperse that heat to open air, then there is the optional aero-cover that you bolt on, and that also aids in more brake cooling. Plus they were made for racing, so they are strong and lightweight...for their era. mine weighs about 11 lbs, which was good for the mid 1980's. And now they just have a classic bling to bring old school honda's back into the scene. Plus the Advan A008's only weigh 10 lbs, so for wheels and tires for my CRX, total of 88lbs...and the grip is awesome, no brakefade, and they are actually show worthy as well. Good luck finding a clean set for under $600. I also wish something like these could be made up for Z's...but with a decent lip. :burnout: :burnout: :burnout: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 They come up on ebay every so often, but NEVER with the covers...I didn't even know about the covers until just recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
