    Glad your alright man; sucks about the car, but it's fixable...if nothing else, just get another one, and drop the motor in it

    Glad you are alright.

    If worse comes to worse you can always do what I did. Strip it of all your goodies, buy another one with a blown out drive train, and have fun building something better out of it. I don't know about you but I like building them as much, if not more, then driveing them. It also give you a chance to go back and do those things you wish you had done diferently last time.

    Damn man, sorry to here that. That totally sucks b/c I respected your car so much and all the work you put into it. Didn't you also just put that spoiler on? It had to be the spoilers fault, J/K.
    Well, good luck fixin er' and if not fixable stick with another 3g!

    I hope everything turns out for you ok. I was thinking that the same thing might happen to my car also. I have upgraded every part of the front end of my car but not the lower ball joints. I'm going to look into getting lower ball joints this weekend.

    I just checked the Autozone website and it says that they sell the lower balljoints for our cars for $30 a side and that they have the loaner tool to do the replacement. The tool has a $100 deposit but I think that it is well worth it.

    I would look into Honda Genuine parts when it comes to suspention joints and stuff.
    After all, mine was aftermarket as well and look what happened. I shoud've gotten Honda
