Couple new Pics
 
Well i'm getting my car ready for a big indoor car show up here in Ohio, its 63* here and sunny so i decided to pull the car out of the garage and clean the engine out. And decided to take a couple shots. I'll take more of the car when i'm done doing stuff. car show is here so check it out, www.extremesportsexpo.com

drew22mader 01-20-2006 05:53 PM

/\ Yes it is stock, but the CF Spark Plug Cover will be in next week along with the Battery Tie Down, Oil Cap, and Radiator cap, no sense in buying a SRI for my car seeing as i'm turboing my car.

drew22mader 01-20-2006 06:35 PM

Well for one, i don't let it get dirty, but i use Meguairs Cockpit shine on the stuff. Just scrub all the metal and just try to hit everything.

if you have time try polishing the ps pump and the metal stuff around there. shows love that.

drew22mader 01-21-2006 12:48 AM

yea gearbox, i really thought about that, what did you use to polish it up? I need to do that before the show. PS pump seems to have some shit all over it, like spots, can that stuff come off? Also the head cover is got some stuff on it, what should i use?

gearbox 01-21-2006 01:16 AM

get some mothers billet metal polish. its expensive but does a great job. it turns metal into chrome nice and shiny. if you have never polished metal before, what you do is get a pack of detail cloths, use one and put a little bit of polish on a small surface and just rub 20x or more times til the cloth starts to turn black then with a new cloth you go over that part to get all the polish out. if the metal is really bad, you may need to repeat a few times until it becomes shiny.

here is what i did so far. not much but its a start. and yea the rain ruined the heat shield already but i wiped it off with a cloth after taking the pics. you can get it shiny but not as much as the intake. the polish is by the intake in the first pic in a small jar.

drew22mader 01-21-2006 01:20 AM

Oh wow, you got it all nice and shiny, the metal line running to the ps pump even is nice. I'll have to get that tomorrow and start on it. thanks man! rep +1

drew22mader 01-21-2006 01:25 AM

Mine? lol, i got a letter in the mail for my 30,000 mile maintance, it said "Our records show that you should have 30,652 miles on your car, we are sending this to remind you to stop in for you 30,000 mile maintance. LOL my car hasn't even hit 28,000 yet. I have only put like 1 mile on my since October.

boricua_civic 01-21-2006 01:25 AM

How's the new intake gearbox??, is it better than the ones you have owned??

gearbox 01-21-2006 01:26 AM

you mean power steering? the lower level is the "cold" level and upper is for hot. so it shouldn't be at max since the car is cold :)

gearbox 01-21-2006 01:27 AM

ya it is but i'll start my own thread. this is about engine bay pics lol/
