    who else lives in a state with hard winters?

    I live in Vermont, so I hate the idea of spending all kinds of money on my car, only to have the rocker panels rot out (happened on my old '96 civic, wasn't modded or anything, but rot still claimed it) from salt and other nasty things.

    newby looking to fix his exhaust system

    Hey all, I've got a 2002 Civic EX with a leak somewhere in the exhaust pipe. I'm using this as an excuse to upgrade everything...muffler, pipe, cat, headers. I'm also a total newb when it comes to car tech (computers was always my thing since they're generally cheaper and easier to work on)...
