Of course I did. I sold the civic cheap, and the rims look even better on the teg.

I can probably find you a wing, I'll check on it.

I'm going to get more info on that block today.

Changed the oil pressure switch, and fixed the light. The light would come on and off, but would not turn to it's complete brightness. It was just the pressure switch, and only $6.99 to fix.


I check the hazard fuse, it was good, but now the passenger side seat belt works fine. What happened, who knows, I did replace a few fuses, but none said seatbelts but I probably changed something that controls the seat belts, Mine isn't working, the driver's side, but I can manually put it on fine.


My brother-in-law has a wings, but for a 94 integra. I have seen them in the da and they look fine, but I don't think that's what you want. Let me know regardless.

Today it overheated a little bit, but it sounds like I might have a cracked coolant hose. I'll check it out tomorrow.

have you changed the icu yet.. it can be used from all 2g teggys. auto or stick.. its a common problem.. check www.2gic.com theres tons of write ups on it there. ive had to replace mine.. the oil light would come on and blink on and off, sometimes it was fine, and sometimes it would just stay on constantly. as soon as i replaced it, the light was gone for good.

The beep was caused by the seatbelt sensor/plug under the seats where unplugged, the last owner put a new carpet, well a piece of unmolded rug, and did not cut a hole for the wire. I plugged them back in, and everything seems to be working great. inside the car.

It overheated saturday night, I found a broken hose, I replaced it, and ran the car for a while, did not overheat, but I don't think the radiator find is turning on. I will probably just wire it directly to the battery.

So far it has not been anything too bad with the car, and I'm having fun fixing the little things.
