I don't know that I've really got anything left to mod. And like hell I'm dumping any more money into my truck.

I've been indecisive and finally setteled on something. What's next? Putting a new head with my block. Just recently sold the old ITR head which consists of
JUN Titanium Retainers
JUN Dual Valve Springs
JUN Race Valves
Stage 3 Port and Polish
5 Angle Valve Job
Bronze Valve Guides
Cam caps and rails
VTEC Soleniod
Oil Pressure Switch.

New head is on its way next week.

Got my JDM Del Sol seats stolen so I've got some other BS up my sleeve now. Sold the rear seats on eBay months and months ago because it had a fade and lose string so I am on the hunch for new JDm db8 rear seats.

I've been just tearing the car apart with my boyfriend the past couple of weeks, hence why I haven't been on here much. I have this weird thing about letting things sit in an undriven car for a long time. It makes me dirty so I start stripping shit again.

Man, I just need to finish this biotch up! I have some pics on my laptop I believe, but remember? I'm having picture posting issues.

i'll be working on getting my jdm front end, which will be followed by an ings+1 kit. here are the pics, i'm gonna go minus the wing. there is a widebody option but i think it may make it a little difficult to park in a spot if i did that.

love the JDM front end look ^

I think my only project is gonna be making myself more comfortable in the prelude. So i'm looking at different ways to increase leg/head room.

Mine is on my sig. I'm gonna concentrate in the interior this time. I want a full black interior conversion... preferably EDM ITR. I want to sell my civic and trade my S10 for a Ridgeline. I just want one project. If I ever do another one, it will be either a rear wheel drive Teg or a K-series turbo EK.

There is a local shop here doing one. It looks awesome. I got a couple of ideas in mind. I will most likely used a mini-truck diff. I havent really looked into it hard enough. I know that I will have to get a better welder. I saw the RWD del sol from Love Fab on a video. I was really impressed....

I'm trying to get my civic in order but I have NO money to spend on it now...

I spent a bunch of money a while ago and still have some parts to put on...

I gotta rebuilt the stock trans that's out... the one I bought for the mean while is actually in worse condition than the factory one I pulled out...

I've got a comp/zex cam waiting to go in with springs... I'm not sure if I'm going to get the retainers or not still... Got a Cometic HG and ARP head studs. Also have 80% of a prelude/itr front brake swap.

I still need SOOOO much crap though... Thing is going to end up having and embarassing amount of money in it... but I don't have it to put into it now so I"m just trying to keep it running as good as possible and finishing up all the crap that I've put off...

I'm probobly doing the last 4 bushings from the ES kit I bought oh about 2 years ago now... LOL I'm prob. going to have to replace the rest of the kit by the time I get the last one's in...

I just got a freeby stereo from a friend who got it from some customer that just junked his car w/o taking out his stereo... it was perfect timing too cuz my 10+ year old sony tape deck finally gave up the ghost a couple months ago. SO Gotta put that in.

Then there's the whole doing the HG studs, cam, and springs.... Hopefully I'll get that done in the next couple of weeks...

Sad part is I've already done lots to the car in the past couple months... and when I finish with this stuff there's still TONS to do..

I LOVE the car though... I really just can't even conceive of selling it... I'd just buy another one and have to do everything I've done again...

Being into cars (especially worthless ones) is a freaking curse.

It was a lovely head but I came across something I thought was "cooler." Sometimes I still think about how hot the head is and think that if my new head isn't as good, I'd kick myself in the ass. I'll post when I really start building again. =)
