No **** haha it was something else. The face she made when she revved it in the 4000x was worth it. She has more appreciation for my money pit now lol

changed the oil last night, fired her up this morning and then took her for a drive. ****** EH! best 40mi ive driven for a while. I downgraded to a 98 auto civic which has been slower than some 10 spds and even my x v6 camaro was ***** compared(sorry v6 guys). Great to feel a bit of torque starting at 2k rpm, not 5 lol

Found a questionable driveshaft on the 99. i also failed to inspect the right side axle when i replaced the left side, so now i get to swap it out too. warped flange. wheel wobble.

if that doesn't fix things on the highway, then it looks like 5th and 6th might be going out...

...the 87 rides great on the highway, but the steering box needs adjusted. she likes to wander.

gahhh.

Saturday, installed a lid I picked up for $20 used. Sunday, changed the oil and filter. Today installed a UMI short stick(awesome) and a SLP smooth bellows. Received a urethane trans mount but no time to install. Love my Z.
