Did an oil change on my homies civic right now. Low on oil,stripped nut head on the drain bolt, smashed beyond belief crush ring, hub cap in wrong position so you cant access the valve stem, 4 of the 6 air filter box bolts were stripped, corroded *** battery terminals. He doesn't maintain his car very well(guitar player not mech.) but secondly I can't believe the ****y work that lube and tire shops perform!

That's why it sucks living down here, no good tuning shops

I think i'll actually be installing stuff on sunday instead of monday. I got new UP and DP gaskets and I am planning on removing my whole exhaust and installing the new gaskets and hi-temp silicone on a couple flanges. I want my car as leak free as possible when I tune!
Here's a set of Evo IX Recaros for $800 picked up in SoCal.

The plot thickens.... my friend brought his girlfriends car over. Before I started I wanted to check the condition of the drain plug. When I got underneath her car I was horrified!, The whole back of the engine and underside of the car was coated in oil! Due to the excessive build up I couldnt tell where the leak was coming from. Checked the dipstick and there was NO OIL in the motor! I advised them to take it to a shop so they can clean the motor and determine where the leak was. Wasnt about to **** my driveway up LOL
