I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

Apparently my name is becoming Synonymous with EG B18B1 swaps:

http://honda-tech.com/zerothread/2348230

I made a pretty complete write-up with pictures on how to swap a B18B1 into a EG civic since noone else seemed to have a FULL write-up that explained EVERYTHING that was needed way earlier this year.

I got it kicked to the FAQ's, and now I get thanked 2-3 times a week for the write-up, and now I'm seeing my name brought up in random threads when people ask swap-related questions.

For reference, My write-up, was the first swap I've EVER done, and I had to learn everything along the way basically, so I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry that I'm now KNOWN on Honda-Tech for being "That guy who has the B18B write-up", You'd think a few people had done it before me for fucks sake.... :3

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

Maybe I should clarify:


"I think its Pathetic that people on Honda-Tech think I know what the ---- I'm doing, because I sure as hell don't"

Someone told him to search for your name because you had a write-up, big deal

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

Awsomeness, Lol.

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

You have more posts on H-T than on HMT. That saddens me :(

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

I Discovered HMT while on H-T, Trust me, You guys saved me from that hell :8

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech

No, he's expressing his contempt for how an average guy who did a regular job gets elevated to the status of demigod due to bandwagoning idiots who can't change their own oil.

Welcome to basic competency, dasfinc, it sure doesn't feel as rewarding as it should huh? Now you know why I'm here, too.

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

Bingo.

I feel like I die a little inside when People ask me how hard it is....

Me- "Well, I used basic hand tools in my driveway.... Had to rent an engine hoist, and buy a few sockets, thats about it"

Them- "REALLY! Yo man, That sounds complicated!!!"




The flip side is you see a BILLION people claiming they have a billion HP, and run 11's with no pictures or timeslips. And I notice more and more, EVERY turbo setup I've EVER seen is home-made, Some more ghetto than others, but I've NEVER seen a Civic equipped with a full Greddy kit or any of that crap, and yet everyone and their brother seems to have one on Honda-Tech, but are asking ME what kind of ------- ECU they need, or what kind of Axles to use....

Then there are people like this:

That ask stupid questions about a simple swap over the course of MONTHS, and still haven't posted any relevant information, or if they have even PURCHASED a god damned motor yet

I see a lot of kits and high end builds. A lot of those guys don't come out, pop their hoods, or advertise because they are afraid to get their ---- jacked.

Re: I don't know if I should Laugh or Cry: Honda-Tech
 

Valid point (not advertising because of theft)

I live about an hour and 15 min outside of Chicago, so that makes quite a bit of sense to keep hoods down, mouths shut.

Out in the boonies where I'm at people slap together all kinds of hap-hazard ----.
