Nice catch! Damn, $700!

I was thinking of doing the exact same thing too...I love the '95 Civic Si hatch.

It's got a D16Z6, yes? A week isn't too bad to fix it up. It's a decent enough engine...you gonna keep it stock or fix it up a bit?

yeah, z6. But the head gasket is REAL bad. Not sure if it's burning oil because of that or bad rings, but I'll find out soon enough after getting the gasket in there... Like I said in the civic forum, it's got a header waiting to go in, and an Si tranny too. If I can't get that all done in a day, I'm retarded. Just have to wait til I have time. Trying to finish my turbo sol, so it's actually passes inspection at the track on sat....

This is OT, but has anyone else noticed the growth in text size on this forum? It's really quite annoying. Do the admins think we're going blind?

mine hasn't changed. :dunno: In fact, ctrl+ mousewheel up or down doesn't change the text size anywhere except in your sig.

go figure
