Workshop night
One night at the workshop and you could pick up quite a few more tips on tech stuff! Not for the girls of course. They wouldn't want to put their beautiful manicure to waste and get engine grease under the nails. I would say its a Honda equipped workshop. A couple of type r engines lying around, oil coolers, bearings, hoses, bolts, rims, u name it, and lastly, a stripped down EG6 jacked up at the workshop.
Why is it up on the arms? From my cousin, I heard the car got into a serious accident, front was dented and the wheel crushed and bent the knuckle arm and drive shaft right out of place on the left side. See that thing sticking out?
Some of the B20As sitting around here. Wonderful engine that I did swap a B16A, B16B for it.
Cos it belongs to a TYPE-R. Such engines are found only in the Rs. Hence the red engine cover.
An old merc on the left, the Mazda 3 on the right, and further ahead of the Mazda 3 is a red Evo X.
What an antique! I only know of one person who still drives an old Merc like this...haha...and this one is in better condition than his!
There you go, that's the REAL thing sitting inside, the Evo X. It is own by my cousin's friend. Seems like most Civic owners upgraded from their VTEC rides to a TC 1. (Turbo charged)
Maybe I will go that path too, but not until I had my fill of the NA rides.
I am a car freak and I still think those who own a car, drive a car, but know nuts about your car sure don't have a love for it. Good to know at least how to change your tires....!
