brother the only way to get very high mpg is easy on the gas and coast as much as you can....
also you have to go till the fuel is dry...remember our tank is 17 gallons, even if you get 30mpg, you will be at 510 miles for the tank....but its a risk you are taking since you are totally running out of fuel, remember my dumbass ran outta gas LOL....I knew what I was doing and hence kept a gallon of gas in the trunk....
I dont recommend you doing it though LOL....

No no, most I've gotten is 15.8 gal, don't want to force it.
Remember I was asking you questions for a friend
We bought 2001 Civic
Clutch and gears feel great, 1000k miles, took it to Honda too, nothing is needed, clean car. Took it from the second owner, she had the car since 8 years. I installed intake already, but it got no vtec

Started after 2002 in US I think
Parts are so cheap man
Headers with cat delete, 75 bucks hahahaha and car did 440 miles with 11 gallon 
That was our first fill, and we didn't even try to go slow. Flooring it since day one.
He is driving like a normal person now... will see what MPG it will get
Car was only $2500
No Steven
None, we had noneI hear all that snow around but just didn't visit Boston

Yesterday though, it started with 8 inch kind of, and snowed all morning today... and the results

No work today

But still not enough

Our record was that door to the deck was filled with snow until... um 2 and a half stripes..

Yesterday after work


Yesterday morning

yeah well am guessing you will her up when the light comes on and the range is around 10-15....
when the light comes on, you have ~3 gallons left and the range should be ~30-ish (depending on how you have been driving)
when the range goes to 0, you have ~1.25-1.5 gallons in the tank....
so when you fill 15.8 gallons, you still have ~1.2-1.3 gallons in the tank...so you can go around 30 miles more (again depends on how you have been driving)....
I dont recommend going dry since fuel acts as a lubricant AND coolant for the fuel filter...

Do you ever fill up totally? You usually take 3 gallons right?
Thanks yummy, yeah I knowww
When I see the pavement on highway, I don't call it snowing
Right now, even streets are open
What's wrong with Boston, where is our snow

I always fill it up and still visit the gas station 2 times a week 
Having full tank, having the spare tire inside the trunk during winter, having my skies inside the car makes me hate everything

i dont drive the car as much any more (long trips)
usually am around the city and max I have to go 50 miles out....either way 5 gallons give me 120-125 miles so I always have ample gas
need. more. pix

I can't get good mpg when I fill less than 1/2
I don't know why man
, I guess because car is lighter loool 
Anil, how much was your racing seats? I want too
and
Is there aftermarket parts for rear toe in/out? Stock?
My right rear has frozen bolts

I don't get it seriously. They make a big deal about storm coming in and.. nothing appears.
Last year was the real storm, you remember the fun pictures

the vendor I got my racing seats from was a nice lady in California....I called her and she hooked me up...the seats were 350 bucks regularly (450 on NRG website), but she gave me 2 seats and 2" racing harness for both seats for 470 shipped 
so its wasnt that bad....and the whole setup was 100lbs lighter than stock...
yeah here is the part # for the rear camber/toe arm

# 15 and 17 are toe?
I checked some of the threads about seized toe bolt, everyone says it's #11 and 12
Those are camber, no? The ones I replaced after lowering? Ingalls
I know Steven, me and Anil had some fun with your red last night
Ohhhh, wait up, with the Ingalls camber kit I installed... can't you adjust toe with it too? Was the alignment guy idiot or I am thinking wrong

if I remember right #12 is the toe arm and #11 is the caster (or camber) arm....
when I went to change mine to ingalls, everything was rusted...I had to bring out the big guns and cut all the bolts off....most of the bolts were seized inside/through the arm....
the firestone I take my car for alignment, the tech really knows his shizz and I only have him touch my car....90% of the time, he has to torch the arm to break it loose...damn rust
I have ingalls too 
I am not suppose to worry about #18, 19, 30... no?
Don't you adjust it by turning the stick?
Removing the stock number 11 and 12 was the worst thing on this car.

well you need to worry about 18/19/20 only if you are removing the arms....for adjustment, you are right, you just need to switch the bolt in the middle of the arm....
I actually did on the weekend but went back again, so not saying it nor doing it again in this cold 
Tried nokya bulbs for upper fogs, that I had but
triple orange is good

As usual.. 
Bro, I just saw Mzilvar's WDP Progress Thread
I want to replace my front axles, then ball joints, then add that extra cables you installed to your battery which I never got how to or where to, clean up my TB again, also IM, also add the spacer for the IM from P2R
I am not done man
What else do I need?

Shuddup
I noticed that it's the winter that makes me not want to mod the car.
First thing is I am going to lower the car if I need an alignment.
Have you replaced the balljoints in your car?
I will check those + the compliance bushings which I replaced during summer.
If they are ok, I guess luk luk luk sound when turning in cold weather during morning is the axle?
Raxles gave me a quote. I'll just order from them.
I will spray PB blaster tomorrow to the ingalls and will see.
Why I really want to lower the car is because I didn't put grease on the thread and scared that I will not be able to open it up when summer comes.
Even after 2 months they were friggen tight as hell, when I lowered the car for winter I mean higher

well a tablet is simple...has everything on one touch screen and you dont need a knob or anything...maybe a volume knob....
but if you are starting from a clean slate, its a lot more easy/fun...tablet - 5 channel amp - wires to speakers - speaker upgrade - done done and done
