Oh boy! You my friend, are going to be drilling into your oil pan! That has to be the most scariest thing in the world because there is always that thought in the back of your mind, if you F up you have a big hole in your oil pan.

The tap is the thing that you're gonna use to make threads for the barb part for your oil return in your oil pan. It basicially makes threads in something so you can screw something else in.

Dang!! The first time i got a car i decided for my car to be a standard. Even though than my mom was like what if i need to drive it sometimes lol i was like nope noones driving my car and like i had exhaust and all that goodies on it. Being asian my parents don't like that kind've junk hahaha, but im older now so noone cares. I remember when i had headers and my dad was like your car sounds fast but its not going anywhere....he was all confused.

lol i'm turbo now, but i don't race it or anything...just a cruiser. Its not that fast anyways lol i just like the fact that its turbo i need a good tune though, but my girl just got a DC5 and i'd rather chunk out the cash to do a hondata/kpro flash for her car. i would see better gains. And SlvrOz117 i say just don't do too many mods on your lancer and just keep it as a DD and grab that ep3. More aftermarket and dependable on mods.

haha.... i kinda want to sell my car too and get another one but my mom won't let me cuz she says there's nothing wrong with the lancer lol...... modding it is kinda a waste cuz there is really not much aftermarket for it like there is for hondas and such...

i know but i just feel the urge to mod
even though theres only like 1 or 2 more things i want to do to the lancer
but modding is so addicting
and i mean i found an 02 Civic Si hatchback for about $8,000 with 24k miles
maybe its just me but that seems like an amazing deal
and its at my local honda dealership im gunna go check it out today
i might be able to talk my dad into agreeing
