Whats yours?

For vader-
Get rear caliper and put it on and bleed the brakes
Paint inner side of wheel from where brake fluid ate away the paint
swap hoods from silver car since my cf hood on my black one is badly hazed

I need to take the SVT of Storage and drive it this week to make sure its ready to go.

I need to install my oil pressure sender.

think thats about it ... need to detail it again before leaving.



car is now out and seems ready to go, need to give everything a once over now ...

The SVT needs a bunch of more stuff (replace pass. window regulator, clean TB/IAC, investigate rear sway bar clunk, etc) and I have a long "summer list" on notepaper that I am slowly checking off.

ugh, sloppy seconds . . . I guess that's better than sloppy 12ths . . .


btw, Kim, I would think that notbagged and BOMBdig would be much higher on the list . . .


back on topic . . . I've decided that i've got way too many details to finish on my car for it to not look like a hacked together POS, so it's gonna look like a hacked together POS for SZ no matter what. But, I should still be able to put down some strong numbers for an NA 3L at the dyno :D

so far I have nothing done that I was planning on taking care of before SZ. My daily driver took a crap on me, needs clutch and possibly a trans. So I kind of have to drive the SVT everyday until I get the civic taken care of, which leaves no time to get anything done!

I was planning on having the following complete
header install, rotors, pads, new calipers, SS brake lines, ebrake cables, exhaust, and sub frame connectors.

Only thing done is the mirko skid plate has been installed.


Oh well, I guess Ill just hope I get everything wrapped up before Carlise
