Tinker Tuesday for June 9th, 2026

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service.

The only thing that would keep me from keeping this new Civic is that one of my other cars is that same Civic, but an Si model with a JDM K24 (the original engine cracked the block at 195K miles; it still ran for another 30K but I went ahead and did the motor swap when the original clutch died) and some other mild mods (intake/nice sounding exhaust, short shift kit). It's bad on gas by Civic standards and annoyingly expensive to insure but otherwise punchy/fun to drive and I don't have a long commute.

The third car is actually the nicest on paper but likely first on the chopping block because I never liked it that much (Hell, I sold it once and wound up inheriting it back.).
