had to do it

ok so the last 2 years ill admit ive ignored a lot of things on my car. a lot of it was stupid little things like parts that needed replaced and i was like its still working so... now im replacing all the things i should have about a year or two ago and i think my car is loving me for it. in the last 30 days i replaced/installed tokico blues, battery ground cable(old one was very corroded) replaced a scratched wheel(bc im ocd like that), also replaced crapy walmart battery from po with a honda oem, and got a alignment and tie rod replaced. Now i have a eibach front sway bar sitting in my living room with eibach proline springs and the car is currently sitting at the body shop awaiting repairs of the aftermath of a hit and run... o yea also ordered a clutch master cylinder bc mine started squeeking and that drives me nuts. so there goes the income tax but id say its well spent. ne thing i missed i know my car will be smiling from headlight to headlight i just wish i knew who hit my car so i could one beat there car to crap and two to see there face when they see its fixed and i now have full coverage so go ahead do it again

Re: had to do it

7th gen.....
Beware...
Of...
Shitstorm

Josh knows what i'm talking about
(In case you don't, in 7th gens, you fix 1 thing, 2 things break...its a constant battle, So I've given up fixing things that don't absolutely have to be fixed)

But nice that you have the time and money to spend maintaining your car

Re: had to do it

thanx ive been doing a lot of homework on what works best for my needs. Eibach seemed to have the best options for me on the suspension upgrades so as son as i get them on ill have to let you guys know my thoughts and i will be doing the springs and sway bar at different times so i can actually see what each one did for my handling
