    mk3gee update...

    jacked it up yesterday to figure out a nocking noise to find rust

    none of the mechcanical is loose or anything on that side so we hosed it out dam lots of salt stupid ice storms
    for the time being zink oxide paint has been sprayed on the rust till we figure out what we are doing with the old girl

    the metal plate with screws in it thats been there since probly 1996 a hole was worn threw there by rocks

    driver side :S


    put the wheel back on after cleaning the pasinger side
    today we pulled the driver side wheel off to get a look at why we are loosing so much friggin oil 1L per tank of gas though it was the cam seal nope its the oil pump


    the driver side tie rod is ready to fail witch is why we have a nocking noise from what we can tell after taring it all apart today so now we need to find a gasket for the oil pump bothe the spare and the one on the block snaped the odball inner one with a zigsag in it


    so she sits jacked up tonight wating for a gasket

    MAJESTICHONDA.COM you can order gaskets like that for like $5. You have some bad rust in those shock towers, you should think about fixing it or having the car junked, its in a critical location
