I'm going to have a year's worth of tax free pay sitting in the bank by the time I come back so the mods will be flying.

What are your plans besides the HFP lips?

6 spd swap, a little engine internal work, a little boost, wheels, suspension stuff, etc.

Hahahaha.  This just keeps getting better!!

I was slightly intoxicated.

You don't say?  Hahaha.  What fun though.  We'll see what happens though.  I'm hoping that by next week I will be in a position where I'll actually need a re-tune.

Forward progress is always nice!

Received this bit of bad news from Bernardi Honda via email figured I would share:

Dear Valued Bernardi Parts Customer,

Happy Friday to everyone! I just wanted to take a moment to inform our customers that American Honda will be raising prices for all Genuine Honda Parts and Accessories on April 1, 2010. We expect our systems to be updated with this new pricing information within the first week of April.

So if you would like to save some extra money, we advise placing an order for those items before the price increase on April 1, 2010.

Thank you all for being part of the Bernardi Family!

Sincerely,

Erik Richards
Operations Manager - BernardiParts.com

What a crock of shit.

[Mike]

Not sure why you would say that's a crock of shit? Think I made it up?

[Jeff Likes Bagels]

I think he means that that sucks, lol.

[Mike]

I know what he means but, it's Z so I have to fuck with him.

Well, after the cx-7 fucking up twice within two weeks, and only 3k miles left in the warranty I'm going to trade it in. I'm tired of fucking with it.

Yeah yeah fuckwad. Its all good. All this shit is getting stored for future use. Don't forget, I'm a tactical ninja now thatnks to the training I just got.

Twice? I remember you telling me about once. I'm glad my mother didn't buy the one she was looking at.

Basically the seal in the turbo is leaking and going down into the exhaust and then it burns it out, white smoke everywhere. Only happened once though. Basically their going to put in 5w40 (instead of OE 5w30). If that doesnt fix it then they'll put in a new turbo (I need to find my oil receipts). Just putting on a band-aid, the real fix won't come until end of the year. I'm not going to keep putting extended warranties on until then. Off it goes.


*edit* 33k damn miles and it's starting. My honda didnt start until it got over 100k

Chalk another one up to Honda reliability and Mazda fail.

Mazda CX-7s tend to suck, my friend had one sold it after 10k because of the massive amounts of repairs that he had to take it in for, or maybe it's just Mazda's in general.

On a side note, I have to write an essay, study for an exam, go to class, and finish this damn project by the end of the night. Dammit, annoying just got off spring break too.
