A few minor updates...
The 2004 Special Edition had a whining noise behind the seats with engine revs. It turned out to be a failing bearing in the alternator. I replaced the alternator, belt and water pump. I'm planning to replace the idler pulleys later this month.



I decided that I'm going to give away the Orient Red car at an annual Christmas car swap that I do. It's a fun event among friends and acquaintances where we meet with cheap roadworthy cars and exchange them 'Dirty Santa' style. In the past, I brought a '98 and '07 Honda CR-V and received a Fauxrari (tarted up Mitsubishi 3000 GT) and a terrible Pontiac Grand Prix. I give away the cars I bring home.

'98 CR-V


The '04 PartsCar is going to be gone by the end of October. The transmission went to a guy who is doing a Honda K-swap in a Porsche 914.
