Well I was coming home from class and I noticed a lot of smoke in the cabin and looked in my rear view morrow and watched smoke rolling out of my car so I thought my engine had finally given up so I drove it the rest of the way home kinda excited cause I was gonna do a engine swap now and I popped the good and one of the power steering lines that go in front of my car has cracked and was spraying all over my header causing the smoke so now I don't get to do a engine swap

hell ya. did u get the trailing arm bushings too???? those are seperate from the master kit.I think it is dumb. What color red or black? Gonna be a night and day diff. Just be prepaired to spend a day doing all the bushings. Getting them out is the longest part. Hope you have access to a bearing press

No I didn't get the trailing arm bushing but I'm gonna buy it with my Christmas money and maybe some engine mounts I'm just glad jegs has free shipping right now or instead of engine mounts I'll get a rear sway bar and LCAs I'm not sure about that, and Im getting red and Im prepared to spend a weekend or so doing them when I swapped springs with my uncle it took me about 3 days just for that and my dad has a new job doing the same shit he used to but his boss owns a mechanic shop and I can go over there and work on it and should probably have a bearing press if not my uncles friend has one

I think when I get the bushings I'm gonna replace them all except the rear LCAs and I'm trying to find integra LCAs for cheap and put the bushing in them so I can put a sway bar on the rear

Well I came across some great news here in a month or so I will be coming into about 16-$18,000 just to spend on my car. First thing first I will be going threw the whole suspension system and replacing all worn out parts. Then I will be doing and engine and transmission swap. And depending on if there is any money left it will be going to my 4x4 toy.
