OK So i haven't driven my car for a while until this past Saturday and that was for the first time since I drove the car home because I lost my license my 6 month's :O 
. Well I got the new rear diff in new seal's for it and everything. It work's perfect no leak's nothing (thank you 1bad). Well the junk ebay bleeder type mbc I bought was junk. So I went to home depot didn't rear any write up's on how to make one just used my thinker cap and made my own. Work's perfect very touchy though. Well I'm bosting 15psi which is right were I want it until I get all repair's done. Well I did a oil change, thought my oil pressure was low because of the damn stock gauge. Than realized reading up about the stock one's basically being crap. Bought some spi gauge's (now known as stillen) water temp,oil temp,oil pressure. And Waiting to put that in. Rotated my tire's drained the coolant and put new in. Well Now I've come across my brake line's on of them going to the back it run's along the passenger side and it bend's right next to where a jacking mounting is (the one toward's the back). Well today I'm heading over to napa to get a new brake line for that piece. $6.49 for a 6 foot piece. Now I have a few thing's I need to know. DO you guy's think that's going to be enough? And the second thing is what size pipe is it?
Now for as one of my friend's say's it that really make's the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Good News bad news. Bad news first, I was dumb enough to want to trade my car for a 97 jdm h22 swapped civic.

I was going to do it until he said my car + $500. I laughed in his face my car alone the motor's worth just as much as his car. To be honest it's nice has 2 step all that but it's so computerized now that every week or so the redline back's down 300-500rpm's. It was set at 9k now it's at 5500 :O
Now for the good news. I'm keeping my car. Ya it need's some rust repair under it and a new passenger side front fender. But just yesturday I finally got the end piece of the exhaust put back on after the previous owner had his father in law hack it off so it would past inspection. Worst part is it's a 3" Apexi N1 ! Well Now it sound's mean again now the brake's are going to be fixed and I just plain out don't want to get rid of the car. Well That's my progress update so far. More to come.
