First the good stuff-- I bought my white 90 Si over spring break my junior year in highschool. Now here it is spring break my junior year and college. I paid 2500 for it then, plus 400 for timing belt, 400 for a break job rebuild thingie, 150 for ignitor and main relay, 100 for the alternator, plus other minor maintenence stuff, then 20 for a AEM CAI (and it wasnt stolen!!) then a *cough* cherrybomb muffler *cough*. totalling about 3600. not bad for 4 years of fun driving.
Now the bad-- my clutch is gone. or so my mechanic says. some may have read my clutch cable adjustment thread... He'll charge me about 500 bucks for a new clutch and resurfacing the flywheel.
So my big delima is if i want to dish out the cash i dont have and get it done, or park my CRX in my parents driveway and be carless the last 2 months of this semester, the get it fixed during the summer OR cut my losses and get a newer car (i REALLY dont want to do this, but i need some conviencing that its not the best alternative). Fixing it myself is really out of the question. I'm down for the work, i just dont have the experience or the tools/place.
what do you guys think?
