deevergote : 1992 Accord LX

Tell me about it!

I just haven't had the time or desire to work on it.
The clutch thing killed me. I spent HOURS bleeding that with no luck, and I got so frustrated that I kinda stopped caring. Now so much else is wrong, that it's annoying to even think about it. I wish I could just tell someone to fix it for me, without paying a ton of money!
I like driving my car far more than working on it.

This is very well said

If I had a garage... Right now, it's in the street.

I did a spring swap because my friend wanted my H&R Race springs, and got me some Neuspeed Sports to replace them. In the process of removing everything, we destroyed the lower bushing on the driver's side rear. I got a rear disc swap from tippey, and the exact same bushing was busted! So I just got two new bushings (thanks to mtnbikah). Now I have to get the bushing installed, then pads and rotors, and reconnect the lines that were left loose the day we swapped.

THEN I can tow it to the dealership where Jak Frostwhite will HOPEFULLY still be willing to bleed my clutch for me! Then I just need an o2 sensor and a driver's side window regulator, and my car is back on the road.

Well its nice to see that that its getting worked on! Not much more left on it and I cant wait to see this thing back up and running.

I am dissappoint.
If I lived close to you, I'd do all the work for free if you paid for the parts. I am taking automotive courses right now to help me get ASE as well. I've completed the electrical, manual transmissions, and basic overview classes so far. Soon to start fuel systems, automatic transmissions, and whatever else I pick to give me full time credit hours next semester. Too bad that letter in front of A for your state is a P and not a V. Hope you get her back on the road though.

How do you like that Fit? A girl who lives two apartments down from me has one and is always parking with its nose right on my rear bumper. lol She even randomly yelled that she loved my car (after making the Fit kiss my CB's ass) at me one day.

[deevergote]

Actually, it's an N. Everyone thinks I live it Pittsburgh. I don't. I live in NJ, 10 minutes from Philly. Nobody gets the PIITB joke!

The Fit is awesome. 250,000 miles on it, and it's still in fantastic shape. I love it. Can't get out of its own way, but I can make it move well enough. I've frustrated a Porsche or two on twisty roads as well... the thing handles pretty damn well for such a tall car with a torsion bar rear suspension!

Quite the MRT Deev, I love the wheels, color and all

[deevergote]

Me too. I wish they didn't get stolen I only have one left, and I can't find another set ANYWHERE! They've been discontinued.

If anyone ever sees a decent set of 17" bronze Falken Hanabis, PLEASE let me know!

[CB7H22Los]

i loved those wheels on your car! i know i've seened another member on here but i can't remember the name who has a set..

[ferenza]

Bump because I want you to fix your car.

Enkei Shoguns, not Falken Hanabis... but that's pretty close! I should email the dude and see what he'd take for them. $300 is pretty high for rims that need painting, and one missing a tire... but they ARE good rims!

I'm still waiting for the 3 Hanabis that were stolen from my front porch to show up on Craigslist...









If it's nice this weekend, I'm going to attempt to replace that lower strut bushing. I might even shoot down to Harbor Freight and pick up a new bleeder pump, on Maple's advice, and see if I can't bleed it myself. I would LOVE to get this thing fixed on my own, rather than towing it. It's a pride thing!

[SOHC-FTW]

Those are pretty close you should pick them up. Just redo them bronze, nice cb by the way.

[Honda_Lady]

i just now found your MRT it must have been buried back quite a few pages for me not to find it. car looks good and i agree with thepowderblue i want to see this car fixed and back on the road. you have like no pictures of your car in this 22 page thread

[deevergote]

Yeah, it's not much to look at! I never take pictures, and most of the pictures that were taken are long since gone
