Working on my car today with my friend that works at Midas. We should be able to push it out in about 6-7 hours.

I lowered my friends 98 ex last night. Took me about 1.5-2 hours with taking a trip (walking) to autozone. Not bad at all. We put new struts and coilovers on his car. We also took about 30 minutes of that to rotate the tires only to find a nail in one, and reverse the tires back to where they were. It looks very sick though, we left it at about 2-2.25" lowered. Its tucking tire slightly on all 4

How come everybody says it take 3-5 hours?? Thats crazy.

It took me 3 hours to get my clutch/pressure plate out on monday, and reinstall it. And I mean, wheels/axles/linkage/starter/mounts/tranny/slave/sensors, everything, not just the clutch. I have new lines, new clutch master cylinder, and new clutch slave cylinder. We have bled the hell out of the lines, and still no pressure on my pedal. The shift fork is in perfect, the throwout bearing is fine, the slave lines up perfect to the fork, nothing is wrong. Its perfect. Just wont work. This sucks ass big time.

The Shift fork is pressed out all the way, cuz the slave cylinder wont go in. We need to get pressure on it, but cant, and its just keeping it engaged, so I cant shift into gear. Im pissed, and wanting a MS Protege

I'm glad you figured it out. That was a bummer. I'm going to need another ride once you get it ironed out.

Hey A.D.D boy, your supposed to be looking at the lights. FOCUS.. FOCUS.

FALKEN Jul 15, 2005 02:34 PM

i thought you were getting the 01-02s...did you put red or amber bulbs in the signals?

shifthis Jul 15, 2005 02:47 PM

Right now they are amber, no I wanted the 03's I was going to buy the stock 03's even before I got these.

2K1Civic17"Gabe Jul 15, 2005 03:24 PM

I like those wheels....but on a yellow ferrari they would look way better. JMO.

shifthis Jul 15, 2005 03:38 PM

I have them on my ferrari on the weekends. But I keep the civic as a daily driver.

2K1Civic17"Gabe Jul 15, 2005 03:49 PM

I bet, do you have a new enzo?

Anybody ever go to, whats it called, "_ _ Motorsports". Its on Hayden, south of bell, and just south of Costco. They sell Ferraris, Lambos, RR, Aston Martin, etc, etc.

I love going in there.

FALKEN Jul 15, 2005 03:53 PM

i used to work across the street from them and we used to go there during lunch and press our faces on the windows...they didnt like that too much :kick:

2K1Civic17"Gabe Jul 15, 2005 04:16 PM

haha. They gotta keep that place spotless. You dont want to walk into a place to buy a half million dollar car, and have face marks all over the windows to the building. Gotta be clean. lol I bet you made them maaaaaad.

FALKEN Jul 27, 2005 11:00 PM

JoeyOKC Jul 27, 2005 11:29 PM
