On the CRX - put some radiator stop leak in. Reattached coolant over flow hose back to cap (with lots of help from budgetCRX!!!) and raised it up a few inches to prevent rubbing (thanks to Rick!!!)

Fit - Gave it a long deserved rest.

Picked up a shorty header and painted the calipers (got tired of the rust line on the calipers so sanded them down a bit to remove the rust and painted them)

Still not sure if they are staying red.... not sure how I feel about it. But it does look better than the rust lines....

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

Fixed the problem where I keep blowing charge pipe, and fixed the rattle where the charge pipe passed through to the IC.

I replaced my H-Fit short shift adapter with a Mugen short shifter.

With the Mugen short shifter and the H-Fit hard mount kit installed, my shifts are extra crisp.

Put EGR valve, water pump, new accessory belt, and new tensioner on the Insight as preventative maintenance last week. Drove to Nebraska in it this past weekend and it cost me $24 round trip. Alignment is off a little so I dropped it off tonight to get it aligned tomorrow. Hoping for 66-70 mpg this coming weekend.

Plan on putting the remaining aero panels back under car sometime this week, too.

Next up is selling enough crap on Ebay (most of my Honda parts) so I can get a MIMA for the Insight. Once I'm getting 80+ mpg on road trips, I'll be content...
