I also have a trip coming up in August.. going to Cabo. So after this exhaust, I will probably need to chill out on car parts until next spring

I used to do that with my black Prelude. I was using a wax that you had to keep your applicator kinda wet. I think it was a Meguires product. Washed the car, didnt dry it, just went straight to waxing.

There are several cities in socal that prohibit street parking for personal vehicles as well as commercial vehicles. Really sucks because those "commercial vehicles" are company cars for small business owners.. ie, Joes Locksmith, C&C Towing..etc..

sorta. i just threw a 3"-3.5" y pipe on to delete the secondary cats.

doesnt do much but sounds one notch louder honestly kinda disappointed its not more soooo yea i need more lol

i'm probably gonna have 4k in my exhaust. front half i'll buy new since no one has them nor sells them often if they do. back half gonna try and find used which usually runs 2k.

I think Im your neighbor...

I actually have a GREAT neighbor I share my garage with. When they leave for the day, Ill pull my Passport alongside my garage when I work on the Z, blocking his side. Sometimes theyll come back, see that Im working and just offer to park their car across the street so that I have room to work.
Last weekend, I went to work on the Z at 8am, their car was gone. Neighbor comes along at around 11am, tells me that he moved his car out of the garage at 6am that morning because he knew Id be working in the garage that day...
