Lernt alot from 7thGen

Hey sup people. I drive a 2001 Civic Coupe LX. Been reading 7thgen for about a year now but never posted so here goes. I din't want my account to get deleted so yada yada... Lots of real good DIYs and info. I've picked up some good ideas reading peeps posts door speakers, swap info, tech info... I want to do a K20A2 swap but have to save up like most people and probably wont do it till my wimpy non-vtec D17 wears out anyways. Auto tranny still hangin in there at just under 100k (so far). Crack starting in cruddy cast iron exhaust manifold but that'll go in the swap and isn't blowin or making noise yet. Head gasket had aleak but probly cause I drive car like it already has the swap lol. Fastest sofar is an even hundred but one wheel has a welded crack inside so balance isnt that great over 85 or so. Did timing belt and water pump since the head gasket was blown and car was having hot / cold issues and the exhaust smelled a little bit like elderberries (j/k. I mean Antifreeze). If Ida known about imports when I bought the car I woulda done things different but with gas so high 33mpg aint a bad way to go for now.

Hey check this. Funny thing I saw a Type S logo and A emblem on a similar (01+) silver coupe like mine yesterday racing down Central Ave south of Seattle and god I hope they wasn't posin with that sheeot cause that will be my ride 1 day fer certain. Later all you 7th-geners. I know...
