98 gt

or a wheelie in reverse

done it before on a bet that is i think i drank in the range of about 12-14 glasses about 12 oz each with no ice then ate dinner. (a very small dinner)

drinks might be 1.50 at a restaurant, but you get free re-fills....

the will either twist a bit or break when you have applied too much torque. different color= different torque specs.

from working on hondas the integra gsr has an intake manifold that has a butterfly valve for each runner to the head. one runner is short while the other is a bit longer. this is for maximizing performance and economy on both ends of the power band. it helps the 1.8 deliver better economy in the low rpm range using the longer runner and more power in the higher rpm range using the short runner. these valves open and close due to the vacuum the engine will be pulling on the actuater so in short, yes the length of the runner can have an effect on the economy and power of an engine will try to find a cut away pic of it here in a few minutes or so.

exact same thing happened to me i bought the car then, about 3 weeks after owning it (driving from charleston s.c. to charlotte n.c. about 230 miles and several overheat breaks) i finally had time to get it checked out. it turned out to be a cracked cylinder. so i inquired about repairs and they gave me some bogus amount... so i bought a complete second engine and changed for a new gasket on it before i replaced it in my 98 gt... (along with waterpump and oil pump and thermostat) now engine runs fine no problems whatsoever and this fix cost about 1000 all said and done, doing my own labor. car now has 200k miles and an engine with half that. body looks like it has about 20-30k and same with interior. all said and done happier i did it myself and saved about $500 (to pay for at the time 2.50/gal gas and that was for regular!!!!)

looks pretty good, i like the color, could use some different wheels though... but it looks nice to say the least.
