How'd they get plates on it? You need a safety check to get plates, right?

Or is it just temp tags? If the cops catch you with temp tags and you're not taking it to a garage, you're issued a ticket.

10 day temporary permit that is up on the 17th of this month. Unless that thing is in a shop by tomorrow there is no way it will safety by Monday. I believe they have made it much harder to get consecutive 10 day permits in the last couple years so we shall see what happens.

I'm sure he will call me when he gets back and the car is there to fix some other shit on it. I will snap some pics as soon as I can.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Oh please hurry, I want to see pics of this awesome racing maching ASAP!

[VTEC_Inside]

I can't believe this but they got it safetied, and I quote "for an extra $20".

I've got pics now, will post later tonight, no time now. I got one of the interior black lighting too, but I think I may have missed the fire extinguisher.

His gf said she took it through the car wash and water was spraying onto her left leg by the clutch pedal...

Thought hadn't even entered my mind. I'll be sure and get some, but it will probably have to wait a week. He has gone to Ottawa with the air cadets I think for the March break.

On that note I'll get some of the gfs new '08 Civic shortly.

Lol I used to be in Air Cadets.. the march break trips were RETARDED..

I wish there was a decent troop around here. The Boy Scouts here was made up of a bunch of pansies, and apparently it just plain sucked.

We pwned. I became an assistant leader when I was 14 or 15, and then quit just after I turned 16.

These are not exactly the greatest pics, but I was just taking snapshots very quickly, bear with me.











I call this one, "Yes ECU, the auto is still there"




More in next post.

"No Driver, I is not auto"


Black lights make for easier clean up I think. These come on with vibration, both sides of the dash and under the front seats for the rear.

[VTEC_Inside]

I think that about covers it.

Is that a fart can I see?

[Eye of the Tiger]

Is that a fart can I see?

No, that is a dual tip muffler with just some huge tips.

Added to the last picture post, and yes, fartcan.

[VTEC_Inside]

Its a Bosel (Bosal) stainless steel fart can muffler.

[CALL_911]

Wait, so is it gone yet?

[Soup DeVille]

Doesn't look that bad to me.

[The Pirate]

Its a Bosel (Bosal) stainless steel fart can muffler.

Bosal makes a sweet sounding exhaust for the Mazda6 six-cylinder.

I expected worse too.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Its a Bosel (Bosal) stainless steel fart can muffler.

Clearly, it is a dual tips sprouting off an oval-muffler. That is not a traditional "fart can":




For a traditional "fart can", you are looking at one of these



Also known as "N1" style muffler


Regardless of the muffler specifications, it is truly a wonderful machine.

[J86]

Sweet garage!

[Eye of the Tiger]

Sweet garage!

I would have to agree. I do want one

[VTEC_Inside]

Admittedly, it doesn't seem THAT bad to me anymore either. I was just overwhelmed with issues that are being taken care of one at a time. However, its difficult to convey the more troubling stuff in pictures.

We changed the passenger rear wheel bearing today, and he is going to do the other tomorrow.

After that its just suspension bushings and figuring out what to do about the ride height disparity between left/right. (See 4th picture for the lean to the left.)

That will make it safe to drive IMO. The front right caliper hasn't leaked since my uncle tightened up the flex line.

The troublesome part after that is the water infiltration. Its bad, the entire carpet is drenched, and we haven't figured out where its coming from yet. The hole in the trunk should really be fixed (sorry, no shots of that) since its quite large.
