4 - this was covered earlier in the thread but it's because we have massive pickup trucks here who can not possibly see a car as low as mine behind them and evidently my bumper is made of some mysterious magnetic plastic that seems to attract their tow bars
I need to be loud in order to be noticed and keep my front end beautiful wink.gif

All 3 fans at the same time - that's what is really perplexing to me. WTF does the A/C fan have to do with the radiator fans? [Absolutely nothing - I know] kindasad.gif
It's just hard to deal with when it makes you miss an important, however assinine, meeting at work and then I gotta bug you every single time something electrical goes wrong? Not cool IMO.

Some a$$hat took a crowbar to my GT4 hood a while ago kindasad.gif Thanks to my alarm he only got one whack at it and ran like a little b!tch.
However, a BRAND NEW ONE is coming my way in two days courtesy of Ping and Stephen!!! [If anyone wants a killer deal on a damaged but perfectly fixable GT4 hood with the factory holes for the spoiler - PM me]. Also courtesy of my Mom and lil' Bro it'll actually be painted to match the car soon. I love Christmas tongue.gif

Other things new:
-MSD Blaster2 Coil [Stock one took a sh!t]
-PS2
-iPhone4 connected to Kenwood DD Screen so internet, youtube, iPod functions, etc.

Oh yeah!!! I'm on broken axle#6 for this year LOL. I'd say 300whp/wtq @ 20PSI is essentially the upper limit for S54 axles. wink.gif

Pics to follow

Oh no - he took the crowbar to it in a vandalism capacity. Some people are haters. I expect it was one of the Honda tuner kids or redneck muscle car humpers here in my neighborhood that was upset when my car showed them "The Honda View" laugh.gif [I can laugh about it now that I have a new hood days away tongue.gif ]

Thanks bro. It's been a rough year for the car but here's hoping 2011 is a great year for her. Getting a new hood and paint on the 1st day will go a long way towards starting it correctly!

The new hood is installed and fitted [2 hours later - they never fit well it seems] and the car is all black now!

First the old hood and it's damage:


Off it goes [note the short sleeves in January tongue.gif Gotta love Tx]:


Sweet pic of the car without hood [yes that trailor was pulled 2hours with an ST with no problems biggrin.gif ]:

Installing the new hood:


Installed ready for the hood pins:


After fitment [which if you've never done it isn't as easy as you'd think]:

Not the best pic but dark came quick. I'll get better pics tomorrow biggrin.gif
At least she's all one color now!!!
