Well celica is on hold for a few now
The crv radiator has a crack in it
Hoping its just a bad rad or thermostat. An not a head gasket or something like that

We know the radiator has a crack in it and haven't looked at thermostat yet
I know for sure the radiator is shot
An im gonna change the t-stat to be sure

Im pretty sure its just a bad rad though
It didnt burst from to much pressure it just looks like a hairline crack
Nothing major just bad timing kindasad.gif

Stupid honda thumbsdown.gif

Honda, well that's your problem. Couldn't handle being surrounded by all of that Toyota awesomeness, and just cracked.

This is what you get when previous owners are morons
Well i know have 2 working gauges
The fuel gauge an tach are both working fine
The temp gauge seems to jump to half within about a minute so i dought thats right but i plan on using a aftermarket water temp gauge anyway so that doesnt bug me
Only thing i have to figure out is the speedo not working

Dont judge me the monster tach was free from a friend
Its only temp till i buy the 2.5 inch tach i want

Thats one of the places im hoping to hit next summer kaos lol
Maybe well have a 3way meet lol since me an stephen-lee want to get the v6s together too

Jason- it works great just put it on a rag an wipe it on
It works for taking spray paint off the plastic trim too just dont let it set or itll eat the plastic.

Yeah kurts finding out more and more each day why he loves me so much...lol biggrin.gif it also works on trim pieces that are painted inside too
Get some plasti-dip for the interior trim. It will get the pieces as close to the OEM finish as possible.

After 5 layers of paint id rather clean them off
Shes only cleaning the one i can grab the rest for like 10 bucks at the junk yard

Looking good. Taking the interior back to stock I take it? I'm not big on coloured trim myself. Just looks obvious in most cases. Beige or tan interior, with black accents is ok. About the extent for me though. I await to see it all done and pounding Honda Civics into the ground. owned.gif
