I first tried to wipe up as much as i could with a bottle of HOT water and some hand soap, then i sprayed it everywhere all of over the bay, and closed my hood and took it for a boot around the block.
Did that about 3-4 times and it turned out like that

I'm going to be fixing that bolt within the week. The driver side tire is going to be pumped up, it has a slow leak, I know it does, dont worry....

yes, i heard about that, and i'm thinking about doing it. Tomorrow I have to go pick up the gaskets and i'm going to install the spark plugs, injectors on thursday as well as everything else.
Then on the weekend i'm hoping to have the car on the road and go to north york to pick up my front lip and black pillar that i'm missing as well as my fuel pump.
Then after that going to get my special item and then going to mississauga to my car tuned with everything on
Cant wait

picked up gaskets yesterday costed me a total of $64 something. That is for the cam seal, spark plgs, header bolt, header nut.
Putting insurance on my on friday, and bringing my car up to my buddies uncle's shop where he is a mechanic and installing everything. I think I might be able to get an alignment and everything as well. I'll let everyone know how it goes.
BTW I cleaned up the engine as some of you know, and I finally noticed the leak again coming from the cam seal, yaaayyyyyyyy. I pretty much knew but just wanted to make sure.
Torrey, where do I get that stuff from ? CT ? What is the stuff called ?

what stuff from CT?
If you mean the gasket sealer, its just called GASKET GOOP or Gasket Sealer.
Just tell the parts guy what your looking for. It comes in different colours as well, try to get black. I got brown once and some of it spilled over and it looked soo bad.
And wtf is your friend's uncle doing to your car? Those gaskets take literally 10min to do once the car has cooled. I hope he's charging you next to nothing to do them.
(And I heard you have aftermarket cams in your car... that Happy did it before purchase, that explain's why vtec is soo ****ing loud in that thing).

He isn't charging me anything. We will just be using his shop. I will be going to CT today around 1:30 to check it out. As for the aftermarket cams, I have no idea about those, do you have any idea what kind or anything ? Dan, any input on this ? PLEASE because I was planning on changing them....
