    Default New to the site

    Well I made a profile awhile ago but never really posted. Got rid of my s13 last week and am now daily driving an ugly cream colored teggy. Has a b20 swap and a wire tuck but the previous owner struggled a bit with finishing things and doing them the right way (along with many other things). Me and my buddy have done some minor stuff already trying to clean it up and am trying to get it to the point to pass emissions. I am new to the honda game so I might have some questions although i frequently utilize the search button . I will also probably see some of ya'll at some meets. Only have 1 picture of the teg since I got it home. Since the picture, roof rack has been removed and might be up for sale soon along with the fat fives. And sorry for the big pictures, I'm not sure how to resize them.

    Pic of the teg at the apartemtn for the first time

    Working on it fixing some stuff the next day and found that I could shake the steering wheel up and down. Turns out the previous owner didn't think it necesarry to bolt the bracket in that holds it in place.

    Found these jammed in the seat rails so the seat couldn't go back more than 2 clicks. Now I can stretch my legs finally lol

    The owner liked duct tape

    My buddy welding a temporary battery tray to fit in the engine bay since the guy had it relocated to the trunk with no box or anything holding it in place.

    His poor car in the garage


    More updates tomorrow after we go through the horrible mess that the PO called a wire tuck lol

    Yeah I know. I just started getting tired of it though and wanted something different. My goal wasn't to end up in a teg though lol. Sold it because I needed a daily driver that would pass emissions and get better gas mileage. Turns out the teg wasn't any of those lol. Probably not keeping it long though, just cleaning it up and fixing stuff the previous owner did, possibly painting it and then selling it.

    Btw the car passed emissions today after doing the CKF trick and replacing the IAT sensor so it wasn't anything major.
