I registered for my first college class...
Tech Basics for Auto Pro
The start of my discovery...
Do I really want to work in the automotive industry?
Even if I don't I know I'll enjoy and use the skills I learn in this and future classes I take for this field.
I'm excited.
The Civic is holding up pretty well considering where I got it. I had the upper radiator hose explode on me while going to work a few weeks back. I changed both the upper and lower hose to make sure that doesn't happen again anytime soon. I also changed the oil and oil filter and flushed out the radiator and replaced the coolant. She's running very well beside the suspension sucking ass. It's lowered on these cheap ass ebay springs and it's sagging and bouncy as fuck. That is the next thing on my list for changing. I'm still not sure what I want to do. I could buy good lowering suspension and keep the nice look. (About the only thing that does look good on the car) or just put the stock springs on and forget about it being lowered. I'm still up in the air, but I'm leaning toward the stock ones since I won't have to spend any money on that. Lowering the car properly would cost close to $600-$700. I COULD do that, but it's a matter if I want to considering how shitty the rest of the car is. I think I'll go with the stock springs and save the money for a better car. I don't think I'd feel comfortable even selling this car to anyone. lol It's that bad. Good running car, it just looks like shit. Like a piece of shit on wheels that you can hear coming a mile away because of the exhaust that's big enough to fist with room left. Haha.
Ok enough making fun of my OWN car. :-D
I still love her though. I'll keep her, maybe make something of a road racer out of it for shits and giggles. Who knows?
