That would be cool if they had SwapALease for relationships, too...I'm looking for that super fast ride with the pop up headlights to trade for my oversized family ride!!!

Dang, I'm one busy cat. I have Saturday AM plans, Saturday PM plans, Sunday afternoon plans plus my fiancee is selling her house and moving in so I'm supposed to spend the rest of the time cleaning, doing yard work, and throwing out old crap that she won't want in the house...

Busy is an understatement!!! But it is a good busy...right?

so what did she do? She vacuumed out my car and wiped down the whole interior and treated it with Maguires Leather Treatment

I guess I have to buy her something now.

Well, I just paid $50 to put in a credit application to take over this guy's lease. The car is absolutely gorgeous. If I had a spot to post pix I'd love to share them -- I probably ought to wait till I get confirmation that it'll be mine before posting though. Details to follow if and when it goes thru!!!

Hmm Mod meet perhaps ?

I know we were supposed to do this for the cooling mods, but everyone was busy.

If get Blades to order it, that would be two cars.

And If Ruf is up to it, I am getting the Mugen Cooling Mods for the Integra.

Ideas anyone ?

Yep . . . we need a mod meet for this.

All you motor-heads listen up. The thermo space block is supposed to increase HP by 10 and torque almost 10 . . . starting at 3500 RPM through the whole powercurve.

Cost is $101 plus S&H . . . they are also trying to get a GB together . . . I'm in on it either way . . . just need some $$ . . .

stay tuned . . .

BTW - I did a cooling mod meet . . . it was just Mantis . . so how is it holding up? Still no leaks
