Happy BirthSiday

Well. Today is the Si's birthday. It's been two years since I drove it back from Dallas.

I've been driving it a lot recently, and I have given up on the no-rain policy. For almost 2 years, it only got rained on a handful of times.

The Sumitomo HTRZ II's are almost toast. So toast I'm afraid that I'll fail inspection. They only lasted about 10k miles, but never needed balancing. They never seemed to really hook up, and always felt a little greasy, but they were consistent. I might get another set since they are so cheap, but I'll see.

I recently took the Vibrant off. It was just too damn noisy.

Milquetoast

It's been over a year since I promised pretty pictures of my wonder-whip. Sadness.

Lately I've been on a quest to make a cadre of nearly useless shift knobs. So far I have two 1.375" red spherical phenolic knobs, two 1.375" brushed aluminum spherical knobs, a 1" diameter, 4.5" long precision ceramic coated aluminum shift lever, and a red anodized aluminum robot claw with a M10x1.5 tap in the bottom. Pics to follow.

Also lately, I bought a Nighthawk Black Pearl Honda Civic LX coupe, manual transmission. After basking in the glory of the all-mighty habby death sled, my wife succumbed to the beauty of of the FG and had to have one for herself. COUPE FLEET FTW.



The Exhaust bypass project is still on hold until I find a welder.
