ya this is amazing your are even attempting this. When you run into problems just take a step back. Its awesome your doing things that other people dream of doing. Keep up the good work and remember your gonna have problems, so take a deep breath and look at it from a different angle.

Which is why you aren't...

Any rational person would say dumping money into ANY car, be it a Ferrari or a Civic is a waste of cash because no matter what, the vehicle is going to depreciate in value. You'd be better off putting that into a house, or something else.

That having been said, it's all about what the car's value is to YOU personally. It doesn't matter what badge is on hatch/trunk.

A Civic is just a POS to other import drivers. Imports are POS to Muscle Car drivers, Muscle cars are POS to Exotics, and so on and so on.

Props to the OP for taking shot, and to all the "it's not worth it" peeps, maybe you should be spending time enjoying a more fulfilling hobby?

You don't know the difference between your and you're, so your comment doesn't really mean anything to me

The OLD happy meal toys used to be tight remember when Batman Returns came out? They had a Batmobile with a button on it. When you pushed it the sides split off and it was like a torpedo.

That was gangsta.

Dude are you serious, like I said the engine does not make the car, the exterior design does!

Well at least you tried your best man and hell you came very close! You opened up some doors for other people to try.

I know I was originally against the idea (and quite frankly I still wouldn't personally do it but..) you actually TRIED most of the threads that start with stuff like this die because no one has the initiative to do any kind of research and just want a reply and usually that reply is a "no" or a "search its been asked" but the fact that you actually tore down your tC and tried to get it to work is good for something.

But on another note..sorry to about the wreck..and at least your ok
