Normally I ride through the elementary school behind this and hop the fence and ride up, but I rode early today and school was still in session

Not that it matters to anyone else, but this is the spot the car was parked when I got my first kiss back in high school after a dance

The new 3rd street bridge napa built for flood control :rolleyes: stupid 1 cent extra sales tax we got on everything to pay for this nonsense, gee theres a reason houses / businesses are cheaper in the flood plain, you dont wanna deal with it flooding, then DONT BUY A HOUSE IN THE FLOOD PLAIN!

what all are you gonna end up doing to that b20? is it goin in that gsr? details! details!! :)


i just pulled my old d series out of my 92 hatch i dont have the cash to do the crvtec but the b18b will be good enough for what im doing :)

Im not entirely sure what all his plans are for the engine ... I know hes doing crvtec, but ive known this guy for quite a while and he probably will end up messing something up. I know he plans to be doing quite a bit of internal work to the engine ... and yes, its going into the 94 GSR you see in the pictures.

Good luck with your b18b! I know if I ever did another swap into my 91 Civic 4 door I would either do a d16z6 or a b18a ... cause im cheap like that and dont wanna have to pay for premium gas for the b16 or b18c1.
