i bought a new car :) now with *working* pics!
yeah i bought another car on Monday... i bought it as a daily driver kinda of a thing, just somethign to drive so i can work on the CRX for days at a time....anyway here is the story and pics for those how cant read 
haha
it didnt have a battery in it so i grabbed one from my house that was suppost to be bad and tried to warrenty it...they say its good! ******* i bought a new battery for the CRX cuz the gay machine said it was bad (and its been sitting on the garage floor for 3 months), so i have them charge it. me and a buddy go down there and pop the battery in and some new terminals, crank it over....he thinks there might not be any compresson? i say it has no spark whatso ever....so i run home grab an extra ignitor and some plugs etc and head back. igintor swapped, rotor was also fucked up so i rigged it up...WE HAVE SPARK :P still wont turn over and now it has a shitload of oil in the combustion chambers from some leaky spark plug tube seals
and the battery starts to go dead.......so we put the car next to the CRX w/Yellow top Optima and after a couple more trys....SHE RUNS!!! with a big *** cloud of smoke of course, but it burns off...
oh so we get the car home and im saying that im gonna start to drop the motor out tonight and ---- to put the D16Z6 in the car and my biddy is like "it runs and doesnt smoke...shouldnt we fix that first :P"....good point. so i desided to blow up the stock LX/1.5 then install the Z6... so i will be installing my Z6 intake manifold with LS throttle body and my turbo ---- on the stock motor. pulled lots of the stock ---- last night and started wiring, but my wiring soldering skill suck...
oh car info: 1988 Honda Civic LX...17x,xxx somthing miles (dont care to know) has power everything, windows, doorlocks, steering, ghetto *** SHAFT RADIO! haha, no AC... and i paid about $580bucks for the car including licenced new plates, title transfer, new taillight, etc thats all for a running Civic
