The alt started working this morning. So I didn't change it. This evening it stopped working.

Turned out the belt was slack. :oops:

The engine starting perfectly now. Keeping it alive until it could last.

So my trunk cable burst along with my gas tank cable. These can't be located and I not able with repairing them. So solenoids and some small ideas. Did the trunk latch today.

Gas tank tomorrow. Will run wires to and from after.

Paid insurance today. $2700.
I'm under 21. Did defensive driving.
First vehicle on my own name. Two free tows. (it's a laurel lol. Might need more.).

I also changed oil. Purolator 3001 and shell 50 body oil. Tappets quiet down a bit.

Went for a drive this evening. First time since I bought it. Brakes working sweet. Handbrakes need adjusting. Steering rack rubbers need changing.

Too much time and money.
Bodywork starting next week. Welding first. Then painting the repaired areas myself. Painter would take care after.

Niceee subscribed for this build!!

This was a really good idea to do a build log, I'm also building a c33 I got for cheaps and turning it into a daily/drift build for those special days.

Also under 21 ,but I didnt do any defensive driving so insurance with Motor one is over $4000 ,I really need to do a course lol

^^ Pretty expensive for Motor One

C32 is an expensive vehicle to maintain properly. I have prob spent around 20k to get mine up to spec so far.

Look around, sure u can get those cables from scrapped vehicles.

I don't like to say anything bad about them but jah. Nobody inside there sharing any information. Nor help I asked several times and nobody ever reply. I guess I'll need to come to a meet and see what's up.

Ahaha when you go to ah Honda Legends meet,they have good ideas and come across as wanting to help but sometimes when you ask questions in de group,men know de answer but don't want to help becuz you might "up" them.I guess all car groups like that

Ill see if i can get some tuff stuff for these with some PB blaster,ill check a tuner to assist me with the rebuilding of the top of the upholstery, Im thinking fiberglass paste and some 3m carbon fiber.

The bottom of 2 doors was fixed already, its poorly done, so ill redo this one time

Das when you reach ah 100 km/hr and it start to chime?

Black Scorpion · Postby **Black Scorpion** » July 16th, 2015, 10:31 am

Its a box in the trunk under the dashboard close to the right speaker.

Chimes when lights are on...that over a 100 is prob if something wrong lol. Once the fan belt burst on the highway and i did get a chime though.

Once the key in the voice will come from the right speaker..'key is in the ignition'

If u pull out the key with the park/headlights on it will say ' lights are on and chime'

If u drive off and a door is open it will say 'left/right door is open'

It will also say 'parking brake on' ' fuel level low'

I saw the switch in the centre console...doesnt it say voice on/off?

The L24 is a nice engine and reliable. I would spend the money on a good carb system and it would be the most reliable car any day. A 32/36 would be costly but u won't have to touch it in a hurry and any one can work on it. Drafts would be nice but with AC and auto won't run smooth. The 4 barrel would be the best of both worlds.
