It has been far too long since I updated this. It has been a crazy few months. The FC has been pretty good for almost a year now, flooded a couple times but found a quick and easy trick to unflood it.
Handled horrible in the snow, spun the tires no matter how slow I let the clutch out. Eventually had to drive everywhere with chains on.
Anyways, whats an update without pictures
Took the civic over to seattle to pick up lots of parts for the beast. Got to part out a whole rx7.
Got some new rims and tires that I need to shine up
Boxes upon boxes of minty interior pieces. New gauge cluster and various plastics. Also in one of those boxes are the new 4 piston brakes and 5 lug hubs that I need to rebuild/paint/install onto my car
Thought I might as well pick it up. Will complete the look when I get around to painting it satin black like the rest of the outside trim pieces.
Also painted my logo. Used to be drab and all black.
On the way back from seattle, we saw a very nice looking EP3. It was silver with some green rims I think. Lowered with a little too much camber on the rear wheels. Looked nice though.
Best part was the price of everything Would have taken the whole parts car except I highly doubt that the civic could have towed it, as I have no access to a truck with decent gas mileage.
