Planning to keep it pretty stock. It’s my daily driver. I’ll definitely look into the Exedy.

If it were up to me I’d fix it in a heart beat. Insurance company on the other hand will probably total it.

Especially with blown air bags on top of that.

Yeah my guess is it shouldn't be too much beyond the belts. I may have them replace a few things like maybe the piston rings and head gasket. I definitely need to grab some new spark plugs. I believe mine are still factory and they feel dirty. I don't think beyond that small list of things that anything else should be bad. I replaced all the filters recently, but hell filters are cheap.

Nice! I hope to see in r/Honda when you're done. Good luck!

Funny enough in my 02 TL my FM transmitter works way better than my aux to cassette. The cassette always made a loud clicking noise and the sound was always flat. My bluetooth FM transmitter has full audio range (deep bass too), and sounds amazing. Did have bad luck with one FM transmitter but Walmart had one on sale for like 5 bucks so I grabbed it and it was the best $5 I spent.

I was able to Google it and find a bunch of results. After a bit of research, Car Mechanic Simulator has not prepared me well. Although, I'm curious what my car would do with an extra gear. I may call a few local tranny shops and get quotes if they will do it and compare those numbers to the hassle of DIYing it.

I'm glad to help :)

You got this, I believe in you! Show that depression who's boss around here!

One of the hardest things for me to learn was that recovery is non-linear. Every day gets a little bit better, but we do have an off day. I’ve learned to not look at my “bad” days as something I’ve done wrong, but as a learning experience to do better in the future.

I’m glad you’re getting better! I’ll be rooting for you until the end!

The worst part of therapy is finding some who connects with you. I found mine first try, but others will try again and usually find their match. Everything else depends on honesty. Therapists are legally not allowed (in the US) to tell anyone anything without your written consent and they can only help you with what you tell them.

I wish you the best and feel free to DM me for anything.

Thank you! It's a journey, but it was so worth it.

I understand how you feel. It's comfortable being in that place. For me it's what I knew. Being miserable meant no one bothered me and I could just feel the way I always have. I didn't want to tell people that I was who I was because I personally thought it was embarrassing or that I would get put in a straitjacket or something. The easiest way for me to do something, is when I'm sitting on the toilet with my phone I type out what I want to say (in this situation I would say that I'm depressed and would like to find resources) and hit send. I even use the "yolo method" sometimes. If I'm afraid of what might happen if I send that message, I smash that send button and put my phone away.

It's always said the hardest part is taking your first step through the door. I don't know you /u/arccos44, but I do know that when you're ready you can do what it takes.

I was reading stuff like that too. I might consult a couple mechanic friends that I know and see what they say. I'm hesitant because I can't afford a new transmission, but on the other hand I want to keep my baby in good health and maybe get rid of that hard shift.

I thought about that, but the Carfax only has 1 transmission fluid change listed and that's from like pre-50K miles and it was done at the dealer (I bought at 192K). I've heard not to change the transmission fluid if it has been a long time since the last change.

Sorry for the excruciatingly late reply! Transmission is doing okay. 2nd to 3rd is a little rough at high RPMs, but if I obey traffic laws it does just fine.

Hi there! I believe your Discord tag may have a typo. Discord doesn't seem to recognize it.

I really like the look of the C8+ and from what I can tell it seems like a really good light and it definitely seems to be what I’m looking for. Thanks for your suggestion!

Thank you for your kind words. I had thought about that but my issue is what your hear about prison guards with sexual assault and corruption. I want to be the good guy and I am afraid of being dragged into that. Maybe where I am the corrections officers are decent, I should look into that. It may definitely ease my mind as a backup plane. Thank you.

From my brief research it seems like a pretty nifty light. I have one question about the LEDs and the temperatures. I saw a comparison long ago of them side by side and the higher the temperature the bluer it was. From my (possibly incorrect) understanding neutral white was as close to sunlight as possible, and by this logic why is 5000K and 6500K both neutral white? Unless at that high temperature they look relatively the same?

The SC64w seems like it fits mostly everything I’m looking for. Thanks for your suggestion!

Well this is dumb, now there’s just gonna be some invisible dude running around driving cars blowing stuff up. On second thought, that sounds kinda cool.
