Default S2K is down

Well a couple of weeks ago I mis-shifted and more than likely bent a valve in the S2K. I've never did this in any car I've owned and unfortunetly it was in the S that will probably cost me an arm and a leg to fix. To make things worse my daily driver needs a steering rack so I'm really out of luck when it comes to my cars. I'm not really sure when I'll have her up and running again but I hope not too long.

HOLY SHIZ I never looked before to see how expensive the racks are for those model civic's . retail is over 300.00.
I can get you one for 223.00. I dont know how much of a deal this is but nevertheless let me know i have one in stock at the store.

sorry to hear about your misfortune. if i was still in the states i could help with your problem. i have a fully assembled head off an 01 and have done my fair share of head swaps (i have bad luck)- but i am not so good luck. are you going to do it yourself or have a shop do it.

Thanks, I'll let you know if I need the rack from you or not. The price of the rack is a 3rd of the what I paid for my Civic.
