go to the dublin meet this year!
Man, if I ever meet the Honda Engineer that decided it was OK to make the top thermostat bolt impossible to reach with a socket..... Got-er done though. If anyone else does this make sure you get two gallons of coolant. The dumb ass at the parts counter told me I needed one. I read the coolant capacities again in the shop manual before I started and it needs 5.5 quarts (not 4), so I bought another gallon. Another fun fact, the fan switch needs a 24mm socket or wrench... make sure you have one of those.
If anyone is looking for a cost effective alternative to the Samco hoses I'd recommend the Gates hoses. They are not silicone, but they claim they perform better than the silicone hoses (http://www.gatesracing.com/hose.cfm), they are also blue in color and are way cheaper. Win, Win, Win... I got them for $28 bucks on Amazon (P/N: HK37RB).
Clean Car. Hope to see you around in SJ area or Fremont area.
Got some new parts coming.... look for an update soon. Hopefully this weekend!
New stuff installed!
A picture is worth a thousand words.
very nice!
