winter finally killed the civic. it had honda cancer for a while and where part of the rear suspension mounts to the actual car rusted away, making it a death trap/unrepairable.
more rust, killed my wipers, scratched up my headlights, salty as fuck, lost a hub cap from sliding off the road and landing in a thankfully fluffy snowbank, nice big leak in my exhaust…
but she’s happy now as a few days ago I gave her a pre-spring tune up, installed some Bosch Icon wipers, Bosch Platinum +2 spark plugs, hella xenon headlight bulbs and polished the lenses, and finally replaced the air box with a nice little cold air intake, went right on and didn’t even throw a code, now that little 1.5l is pushing 100hp and she pulls waaaaaaay harder in 1st and 2nd gear, as well as accelerates a tad quicker in 5th so she is much easier to drive on the highway
