All valve lash settings adjusted today to maximum specs. First time in 100,000 miles. Needed doing for August emissions test. No work on mods.

Next is the timing belt and more work on the bellypan and diffuser.

"Maintain before mod."

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
