i agree.

the whole reason im pissed off is because i spend two weeks swapping a motor by MYSELF with minimal help. Between work and school and this and that. I was without a car for a month and drivign a POS truck that cant idle. I put blood, sweat and tears into that motor. I took it out for a spin and was impressed. So what would anyone do ? get on Hondastyle and tell about it. first thing i see is Az giving me hell. Something to the effect of

'I WISHI WAS THAT COOL AWEOSME MAN I CAN PAY 3000 DOLALRS FOR A PIECE OF SHIT'

before that, i had utmost respect for Az, but he just jumps in and reams me because he happens to take a different path. i woulda kept my D. I planned on turboing it until it died. I mean, im not really into putting boost on a 250,000 mile motor that leaks oil, coolant, and smokes, over heats, and has a slippery ass clutch. Its not my fault teh previous owner ragged the hell out of it. But the cost of a minimal mileage D and Boost would be just a notch under the cost of a B. I even started a truce thread that got shot down. its not like im playing devils advocate, but you dont make people feel like ass after they spend money, time, and give up a lot to do something with their car that is widely accepted and very reasonable just because you have different circumstances.

also, i think ive done a damn good job turning a riced out civic into a regular clean, functional one.

now burn my soap box.
