its all good, i didnt mean to coem of like an a$$...ive just been getting lots of sh*t about it lately...people are like, "dude, you are retarded if you dont do the rear disc 5 lug conversion"...just thought that it was gonna go that way again, and i really didnt want to put up with it any more. Sorry about that.

She wants to start but can't, we think we narrowed it down to the Civic ECU, seems to have gotten fried durring the water incident. My friend knows a guy that has the equipment to flash the RSX ecu to work with my Civic key/immobilizer unit.
So we are hoping for good things to happen. The car is so close to being done i can smell it.
She will hopefully be alive this week, thats all i can say right now.
