I'm back! Brief update.
 
So I've been without internet for close to a month now... A lot has happened.

First, I moved into a new house (with a garage! :yay: ). Its the first time I've lived in a house since I was a kid, and I couldn't be happier about it. Between my roommate and I, the garage is gonna get one hell of a workout.

Second, I bought a '90 integra for $200! The car is in decent overall shape... it runs fine, but has a bad alternator and some yet undiagnosed front suspension problem (the girl who owned it ran into a big F'ing rock). I haven't had time to check it out yet.

The tentative plan is to swap the passenger seat into the driver's side of my hatch, put my winter tires on the 14" alloys, pull out the shortblock to be sleeved/bored (85mm :cool: ), and part out the rest.

Anyway, just thought I'd catch up... good to be back on HAN. BTW, check out the FS forum in the near future for various integra junk :rick:

the car has been derelict in front of my friends house for like 6 mo, and now he's moving so he had to get rid of it. It belongs to his girlfriend's sister, and when she screwed up the suspension, the mechanic told her it would be a huge ordeal to fix (undoubtedly trying to rip her off, since thats what all mechanics do in Boulder), so she just abandoned it. If I hadn't bought it, my friend probably would have just donated it or something.

Upon initial inspection, the suspension doesn't appear to be damaged at all. I'll check the crossmember to see if it got bashed up when I get a chance.
