way better jacob. well done and now PICS or didnt happen

 

I don't want to post pics yet, cause the engine bay is dirty right now, and I ordered some new clips from Acura for my bumper so it might be a couple of days till I finish all the little kinks. SOON

 

 

 

wow that brought back some memoires ... u giys know he was killed in his cl few years later right ? i started looking and now im wondering if im remembering someone else ? cause i see posts in his name upto 07.... any ole schoolers remember who im talking about ?

 

Judging by his avatar, you may be thinking of Red-CL.

Amir's avatar has a pic of Im assuming Red-CL with RIP 4-27-2005 on it. Red-CLs last post was 4-26-2005.

EDIT - Definitely Red-CL

Its a bit late and I didnt know him, but

Double EDIT - I just got around to reading the thread. Red-CL had a heart attack at his office desk. Not sure who was killed in their CL.

 

typeR is wrong. He didn't die in a car crash, he had a heart attack.

 

ok but im certain i remember that an old time member did die in a really bad CL S car crash .... sorry off topic ... and it was really cool to see a bunch of old names man the good ole days when everythin was new

 

Damn . That must have been a really bad one then, I haven't heard of a death in a CLS but I'll take your word for it....

 

When CT sent me the icebox, they forgot to send me a bolt for the bracket. I was so pissed I called them up and made them send me the bolt and pay for shipping as well

 

They didnt send me one either. I used a fender bolt from my Civic.

 

^ Yeah, I could have easily just used an extra bumper bolt I had, but I figured that since I payed 265 for the product, I should get every single part to it. ....I'm also OCD

 

I didnt have time to call and complain. Some of us actually drive our cars

 

I'm actually looking around for a 5spd volvo 240 to daily in. There too damn hard to find though. I'd like to talk more about it, but I have to go back and argue with you in the other thread because I just got a notification.

 

Sweet. Ill be sure to check it out.

I love 240s. Are you going for the wagon (please say yes)?

 

Unfortunatly, nooo. I don't want to be confused for an 80's soccer mom

My plans are to get the sedan, slam a surf rack on it, and be set. If I get bored of the 114hp motor, and have enough money saved up, I might just get a 120 shot for it to have some fun

 

Wagon + huuuuuge snail = Win. Lots of win.

 

More grip at the rear, that's for sure.... but I have a thing for the sedans. I can pick one up for 2-3 grand (currently shopping for it) and drive it over 400,000 miles lol

 

What? You're not going to get a 335i? Just kidding man! I could not help it!

So do you feel any gains from the CT Icebox? What are your impressions? Or did you already post that? Guess I better go back and look now!

 

lol. Were not in the flamewar thread

I haven't drivin the CL yet. It's been raining alot here.

Don't worry though! I'll drive it (Soon)

 

I also like how the 940's look:

 

I would like to have a 2004-2007 Volvo V70R. I had one on a 24 hr test drive and I worked the shit out of that car. It was so nice with the MT.

But here is the Volvette. Ever seen it before? I'm sure Civic would love it!

There is no way I could do a mod and not drive it as soon as the install was done. Just would not happen.

 

That swap looks tight.

 

I'm able to do it because I'm patient.





The other 99% is because of ocd

 

It's also funny, because our cars accelarate litterally twice as fast lol

I made a thread for the volvo so we don't go further off topic:

Clean. I popped my hood for the first time since my last oil change and two snow storms really took its toll. I need to get some degreaser and go to town on it.

 

Cleaning engines can actually be pretty easy. They don't take long to do....

 

It does when youre lazy

 

What's the quickest/easiest way to do it?

 

Buy a car thats already clean and never drive it

 

By really greasy engine cleaner, spray a shit load onto a rag, and start wiping it all down

 

lol. When I got my CL delivered to me on an open-trailered truck delivering it from New Jersey to California, trust me, it was dirty!
