12/8/09: Today I got another Free part lol. Josh's buddy had a rear trans bracket laying around and gave it to Josh for me. Also started tearing my front hub assembly apart so I can get new ball joints, wheel bears and studs pressed in. Also gonna send the hub knuckles out to be powder coated. Pics will be up later tonight

Could very well be a headgasket like I stated in my first post, just no signs that are commonly there for a blown headgasket. Even if you have to put a headgasket on it you have what 125 in a running motor?

tell him to buy both and have a complete swap for 150bucks lol

12/8/09: Got to talking to a friend of mine last night about my motor and he asked me a question that I had totally over looked. He asked "if I had taken out the oil plug on the head, since my head came off an LS/Vtec". Of course I hadn't taken that out lmfao. So today me and my dad ventured up to a friends shop and tried taking it out. First we tried an allen wrench, that resulted in the allen wrench twisting at the head lol. Then we tried a Snap On socket with allen key fitting on the end, that also twisted at the head. So we finally said enough with that and just put it on the drill press and drilled it out. Should've done that to begin with haha. Also placed another order with Honda for some odds and end shit I need Here is the plug that was in the head: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/oilplug.jpg Now the head on the drill press being worked on: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/takingplugout.jpg The fitting is out!!: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/fittingout.jpg

Buump still have this and still need it gone. 4 kids have flaked out in last 10 days on it

Umm you do realize that there is automatic tie ins by conference right? There is no way in hell the Fiesta would've had Iowa vs Ga Tech seeings how the ACC winner automatically goes to the Orange Bowl, and the SEC Champion is given the Sugar Bowl Now if a conference champion is in the NCG then the automatic birth by tie in is negated unless the 2nd place team is in the top 10 BCS standings and given an at large bid, i.e Florida getting the nod for the Sugar Bowl. The Big East champion is also by default given the Sugar Bowl unless they are in the NC game. Remember 05 when the Rose Bowl was Texas vs Michigan instead of a Pac10 team...thats because USC was in the NCG and the 2nd place pac10 team wasn't ranked high enough to get an atlarge bid. The bowl matchups came out exactly like they should have. I do agree with your winners of each game though.

I got through 5 fucking times by 12:15, rang 11 times before it just stopped. I am going to email them and pitch a bitch about their fucking phone system. How the hell are you gonna run something like this and not have a better phone system

12/6/09: Its always nice having buddies that either work at parts stores or have warranties on parts at part stores lol. Picked up the 1 missing piece from my motor that makes it fully rotating and actually complete as far as the engine goes...My water pump!! Best part is it was FREE!! Bout damn time I get a free part after all the free parts the gf has gotten for her crx lol. Just gotta find some bolts to put it on with tomorrow and it will be finished. Who knows might just goto Honda and buy new bolts lol http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2082.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2081.jpg

oh yeah call/text if you have one 740 814 3936

broke mine, gotta replace it. I have 150 to spend...what ya got?

Haha yeah I think a 2 year old did the welds. Steve is correct about my catch can setup as well

Oh yeah another update today for ya: 12/4/09: Came home and was bored so I started putting the new gaskets on the motor. Pulled the vtec solenoid and put both the top and rear gasket on. After that the shop welding my valve cover called to tell me it was done. Went and picked that up and headed to powder coater. Picked out the color for my valve cover, should be done middle of next week. If it turns out good I will be taking my complete suspension into them to have it all done as well as random brackets and such. Heres some pics Got the old gasket pulled off: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2073.jpg New one put in: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2074.jpg Top part of solenoid pulled off, gasket removed and new one put in: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2075.jpg Put it all back together and re-bolted it to the motor: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2076.jpg Heres the front of the valve cover with the bungs tapped and welded in: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2077.jpg And a shot of the back bungs: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2078.jpg

Ok what kind of work does Jamie do and how do I get into it lol

12/4/09: Well another shipment of OEM goodness has arrived. I ordered new bolts for the plastic timing belt covers and also the Crank Gear Guide Plates or washers basically lol. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2071.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2072.jpg

12/3/09: Well the motor is one step closer to being a fully rotating assembly. Picked up my timing belt tensioner and spring. Also called and ordered some random bolts from Honda that I needed as well as the crank pulley guide plates. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2068.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2069.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2070.jpg

I have a family member with 2 little boys that is in need of a set of bunkbeds. He just lost his job and the kids are sleeping on a single mattress on the floor. I am going to check craigslist as well to see if I can find a set but if anyone on here has a set they want to sell let me know

To be quite honest if it wasn't for her working at Time Warner and us getting cable/internet for free we wouldn't have cable. There is nothing on tv worth paying money for if you ask me. We have every channel they offer and I usually end up putting it on channel 416 which is the rock music station....Thats not really TW's fault either because they have no control over what the stations broadcast they just provide the channel, but still its ridiculous the price it cost for cable for what your getting

12/2/09: Well the gaskets I ordered from Honda arrived today. I will be placing another order for more parts from them in the next week or so. Hopefully local welder calls today and lets me know that my valve cover has been finished http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/100_2063.jpg

Lol

Calling the kettle black are we?

That is the 2nd time I have ever seen that anodizing paint turn out good. Props to you sir. I am debating on doing my valve cover anodized gold, or having it powder coated

Buy the gun...they are less then $75 bucks from Summit, Sears and Harbor Freight. Then pick up a free oven from CL and your good to go

I'd be down to donate and help deliver the toys. Where are the toys going? Ever think about taking them to Childrens to the terminally ill patients? I'm a sucker for helping kids out
