My pictures went MIA so at the bottom are up to date pics
Alright so I finally decided that I would restart a project thread for my ef. For my ef I want it to be fast but also look good. For the look of the car I want it completely flatt black with red accents(the original color was red it'll be easier) and a pretty stock look on the outside besides the paint obviously. Brakes I now have rear discs. Suspension it has ksport coilovers. For the interior I want red sparco or bride seats. It already has a momo steering wheel and I plan to have rear seats but also a 6-8 point roll-cage. The original plan was to turbo the d16y7 but I decided to start over with a b series. So b18a is a go. My current plan is for a built b18a for all motor and nitrous. I haven't really decided on a hp goal yet. But with a built motor and direct shot of nos I'm expecting 250hp. That might be a stretch but we'll see. Ill try to keep this updated as much as possible but probably for the next couple weeks going away.

If anyone has advise on what parts to use feel free to let me know.

Right now I have:
Almost everything.

My lower end.
b18a1 built block with type r water, and oil pump. it has a lightened crank which is balanced, and its been bored out to 82mm with 12.7:1 JE pistons; it also has eagle rods, ACL bearings, and has been blue printed. the block has less then 500 miles on it


I need to buy:
Throttle body
header
traction bar





What I want:
New seats
New windshield
headunit

So heres what everyone wants PICTURES.

Awesome bro. It looks good. Just one question, what trans is it from? Is it a b16a or b18c trans? I know the ls trannies die at the higher end.

well **** i didn't know that its a ls trans. higher end meaning rpm/milage/hp?

Nice, i think i see some ksports foo

GL with the build bro. It's nice to see someone showing love to the ef. keep us updated!

Nice, i think i see some ksports foo
ya the ksports are pretty nice all adjustable and stuff but they got hella dirt in them so I have to pull out superman strength to adjust them.

Mmmmm bitches more pictures. I got head.

I dont know if its an ls trans. It was more of a question to you if you know what it is, because id like to know

mmmmmm, i'll send you 5 bucks via paypal if you post a video of you licking all the valves and ports...........lol

Plans for car:
Get truck so I can tow it to my auto shop class
Have auto paint paint it
rebuild motor
intall motor
drive like a mad man.

Ok my project has been slow for a while because I'm outa cash. I got my job back at longs so im back to working 2 jobs yipppeee. The wheels pictured towards the top of the page are being sold to a friend for $300 so thats a little more cash. And I still have all my turbo parts for sale along with my D16 which is being completely parted out.

Today I want to finish the rear disc brakes. I have to wire the ebrake cables to the handle.
Go to the junkyard and pick up

some pos pin
40/40 valve (do i need both the valves off the teg or just one????)
master cylinder.

Just got back from junkyard. Picked up:

the pos pin= pocketed
Dizzy and plugs/plug wires= 50
40/40 valve= pants haha

Ok idk if anyone even follows this thread haha. But I'm going to rebuild the head, should I rebuild it with oem parts or aftermarket. For a n/a application with Nitrous.
Lemme know thanks.

Aye. I need help RESPOND to my posts. haha
So i went to put the valve in. Its 2 parts the top which says 4040 on it and the bottom that says some other s hit do i need to replace these both into the old valve or just the top one. I ask this because the bottom one will not fit.

^ answer my questions.

Going to pay pal this guy tmmr.

wow..i have been out of the loop for a while...last i new you just got your turbo..things are looking good for you man. JDM front end conversion in the works? Sorry if i don't reply to this btw...i dont get internet for another week.

jdm front end, LOL. i just took out a loan from a friend for $850 so i could get some parts so ima be outa money for quiet a while.

what kind of head are you going with ever thought about doing the Frankenstein setup b16Head and ls block its a nice setup i know from experience

lol..i feel you man....i have no money for my car..and im riding steelies in the back. Should be a sweet build though once you make up your mind...lol...JDM FTW btw

ok so the b18 shortblock is on its way should be ariving the 7th says ups....we'll see. I dropped the ls head off at a local machine shop to do a valve and head job. And I ordered a head seal set. So hopefully soon we'll have these combined :D

Also last night I ordered some b series into ef mounts on h-t for $110. ill get some pics up next week when these parts come in and pics of the head hopefully this weekend when its done at the machine shop.

it f u c king better be ive put everything i have into this

I haven't looked at this for a while! Looks like its still going strong. persistence impresses me a lot, i know how f-ing annoying these things can be. but its funny how EF's just love causing problems and how they seem to eat all of our money. LOL. That thing should haul ass when its done.

How hard was the rear disc conversion btw? And what are your interior plans?

rear disc swap wasn't hard at all! just takes time.

This week i got my short block that came with:
i have a b18a1 built block with type r water, and oil pump. it has a lightened crank which is balanced, and its been bored out to 82mm with 12.7:1 JE pistons; it also has eagle rods, ACL bearings, and has been blue printed.

Also I Got this week place racing motor mounts.

3rd thing i bought was a membership to yoparts.com and a head gasket set from them. only before i remembered that i need an 82mm headgasket! damn

Lastly this week i got my head resurfaced and a complete valve job done.

my mom has my camera and shes in oregon and i cant find my phone to comp wire but as soon as i can ill get some pics up parts look good!

Ok, today I went to pick and up and got the 5 finger discount on stock b18 injectors.
And the final stupid brake fluid filter

lol ha thats already the second thing this build you pocketed hehe

nice build man your puttin everyhthing into that lol i bet that sux spendin money like that :P i live from check to check without buying anything :( how worthless ha

second, i think not, more small parts than i can remember and a ****load more to come some of the **** there is so overpriced.

It really does, I owe my friend $500 still for letting me borrow money, i just spend $200 on San Jose Sharks tickets to go with this girl, and its probably going to cost me another $200 to go visit her in 3 weeks

build looks good!

Ok I've been thinking about it and what I might do is use my stock ignition but other than that use the integra wiring harness. for the dash and motor. And just cut just about everything because i dont use a/c or barely anything all i want is all the lights, maybe some fogs, cluster, clock, horn and headunit. other than that i dont need anything electrical. If anyone knows anything about this or any links please drop the links on the thread. So today im going to hit picknpull with some big pockets and see what all i can get my hands on.

YAY pictures!
ok so thanks to veterans day I got a chance to give the ef some time. So I hit autozone and got some primer, flat black paint, sand paper and masking tape. All I had time to do was the drivers door and there wasn't much sun today so it took a while to dry. All in all I think it looks good. let me know what you think. YES RATTLE CAN! sorry I cannot afford a 2k paint job, I like it. Also i know that the door jams and such will still be red, but thats ok with me :)

Also at the bottom me and a friend put the d16 back in for just a couple days for fun. ENJOY!

looking good so far; the spray paint looks pretty decent. Are you going to at least paint the engine bay? And if you're rattlecanning, the door jambs shouldn't be too hard to paint.

woot...you gonna finish paintin it?

ya, I'm not too worried with the feel of the car I just want it flat black, it prettty much feels as ruff as sand. Engine bay will get painted probably this weekend, door jams might be done in a couple weeks, today im going to do the d quarter panel and respray the hood.

ah come on, that taping job makes me sad. you go out and buy tape and only use a couple feet worth??? btw, look pretty good for rattle can matte black. any plans for interior? like a seat for that matter?

as for a seat, no who needs that? ya once i put the ls back in im going to use my stock seats unless I can trade for some in the mean time. ya I was over excited to paint so i did a terrible masking job. Just finished clear coating the fender and door, and repainted the hood. Looks ok imo, I'm really not too worried about how it looks so efforts in telling me it looks ****ty will make me laugh.
plans for interior..... na probably no carpet, one seat and i guess a dashboard. I really want this car to be SUPER LIGHT weight. hopefully that will help me beat my friends 300 whp nissan 300zx tt

I thought yall would like some pictures of today......

you missed a spot.......... ;)

you missed a spot.......... ;)

haha serious, the entire rear and right side of the car.

lookin' good

paint the trim under the windows... will help a lot with how it looks

bump fixed pics on first page

So I had to repaint everything because there was dirt on it last time I painted it so when I would touch it, it would be ashy. So I repainted the drivers side fender and entire drivers door. On the piece that goes at the bottom of the window it has this retarded like weather shi t on it that was flaking but won't fully come off. So I'm working on it. Also I know don't allow my friends to do shi t to my car. I let my friend paint the hood while I worked on pulling the motor the other day and the genius used like 3 cans of paint and in the end I have to do it all over again. Today when I went to repaint the door i decided to pull the door so I could lay it down and such, after the bolts came out I realized that it weighs 157234547 pounds and quite possibly made my back worse than it was before. Also I had hella trouble getting the door panel off because I didn't research how to do it first, that was a mistake.

Ya, so I pretty much decided today that I'm going to remove most everything from the car that has any weight to it. So door panels, rear panels, rear bumper support (don't tell me how thats dangerous and shi t if as if I didn't know already.)

Nice landscaping.

The paint looks much better the second time.

Ya its a super nice backyard, unless your trying to do car work.

I agree, I think the whole sanding part helped alot.

Tried to get some work done today, sucks the sun goes down at 4:30. So I removed the drivers door panel, seat belt, rear seat belts, rear drivers side panels. I'll have some pics up as soon as the woman comes home with the camera.

Did some more painting today, also did some weight reduction this week. PICTURES.

finished painting the passenger door today, just clear coat. The paint looks ok, but when you touch it it is ashy I think cause theres like dirt under it or something. but im not too worried, I just want it to be the same color :/ and hopefully itll be fast! haha

bwahaha, did you forget to put the rotaries in too?...j/k, looks good

Rotaries? lol. If that was a joke i didnt get it but now im nervous. and thank you

it was a joke, jeez :) , you say you forget to install some internal components scares me.

oh ok no. They werent important other than the oring but i realized it the day after i bolted the head down ive just beeen far to lazy.

Ok so after completely wrecking one of the intake stud threads. I went to the junkyard today to get some. I got that and some intake-fuel rail studs. Installed the IM and Fuel rail and Injectors. Although the Fuel rail and FPR don't seem to want to mate so I'm going to do some drilling. :D Other than that its all coming together..... Maybe ill order my flywheel tonight... I can't decide. But NOOOOOOOOO the VALVE cover WILL be painted. Its just for pics that I put it on. Although it does look cool like that. :D

Can't wait to see it all painted. I think the matte black will look good.

I <3 Updates...

...umm, I don't feel like reading everything again to find out but are you replacing the windshield or are good at removing over spray on glass?

well it looks pretty badly cracked so i'm gonna guess he's replacing it

Pretty sure he said it was getting replaced so he didnt care about overspray

ya I'll replace it eventually. Seeing as its not running I'm not to worrried about getting a ticket for it. And its not to hard to get off. little gas goes a long way.

Looks like a lot of work.

Looks like a lot of work.

Not as much work as wiring that v6.

So today in the shop I had to replace the lower ball joints so I finally got to start putting on my front brakes today. God did I hit every possible problem, so drivers side got done today I'll do the other side tomorrow and buy some brake pads tomorrow also.
Gotta love oversized brakes.

Sounds good I'll probably try that soon.

OH, just make sure it's a sharp razor blade. Dull ones don't work too well. lol

Ya the front of it is lined up but its wierd because the back doesn't hook into anything so.... ya its like loose. I don't like that at all. I guess once I have some free time I'll buy something to have it hold to.

you could make yourself a bracket out of some thin metal pieces from the hardware store (i don't know what they're called, but they're ~2"x3" metal sheets with holes in them, and you can bend them)

Awesome thanks for the advise. But.... right now I'm trying not to spend money on stuff that won't help the car run cause I'd rather have my interior falling apart while I'm zooming. lol.

lol, i'm sure it won't cost more than a dollar or two

with 2 of them and maybe a drill you could probably make a bracket. in fact, 1 of them might be enough if you lay it flat and bend the ends upward.
here's some pics. It says "strong tie" on it. I guess that's what it's called.

Paint is looking good. You might wanna hit the roof one more time, but otherise its good.

ya once I have some spare time and cash I really want to do the roof and doors over again. The clear coat that I used on the doors makes it really ashy and rough so I'll sand it off and just not spray any more clear.

what is that center console out of? i like it! gotta get me one!

Coming together nicely. You're right. It'll be road worthy sooner than we all think.

Your friend looked bored in that pic 6 from the bottom...

Ya, I just hope something doesn't go terribly wrong when I go to start it :(

Thats my friend with a 2.5 rs subaru, he has dibs on the side of the house once my car moves out for me to turbo his subaru.

Ok so today I got the motor in, well at least with 2.5 mounts, I'm only using three. Also got the timing belt on. Had to use a gsr belt due to the water pump and such. The gsr belt has 126 teeth while the ls has 125.

Had to pull the subframe down a little bit so that I could get that last stupid bolt out of the rear mount.
So heres some pictures.

no way they motor is in? good sh!t bro keep it up

ya, lol surprise surprise. I just ordered a megan pulley. And today I have to cut off the old front motor mount because it doesn't have any thing to connect to. It is also blocking the motor from moving forward so I can get the rear mount all the way in.

oh wait, is your engine internally balanced?

what do you speak of internally balanced? IDK what that means. I fear.

b18a1 built block with type r water, and oil pump. it has a lightened crank which is balanced,

Is that what youre reffering to?

What I mean is: is the crank balanced?


if it's not, running a crank pulley without a harmonic balancer can be very dangerous to the engine and eventually cause crankwalk. That's why I recommend the CTR N1 Crank Pulley, it's has the harmonic balancer in it.


EDIT: just saw your second reply. You'll be safe.

Oh good,
See so being 18 I try to learn as much as I can but sometimes little things like this if I weren't on this forum id get dominated. So ty sir for teaching me something new. I always like learning about my car.

Nice project, it's coming along nicely! I love EF's; when I get my Si done, I'm getting a CRX. I've always wanted one.

About those metal plates that Trust posted: At work we call them nailing plates. I do plumbing; we nail those plates in front of gas or water lines, so no one tries to, say, hang a picture, and put a nail right through a gas/water line. If you want, I'm more than willing to grab you a couple, just pay me for shipping.

Thanks, ya it has definitely come a long way.

I will definitely take you up on that offer, but not for a while because right now the interior is my last worry. I need to figure out how the previous owner hacked this wiring.

Yeah, for sure. Just PM me whenever you're ready. Just pay me for shipping, and I'll get you like 10 of them, so you have extras. They really do come in handy for making brackets, I've lost count of how many times I have used them, since I started working here.

That's loooow. This car wouldn't make it in Arkansas. Too many hills, too many speed bumps, too many potholes.

its not going to make it long here it is way too low !

Lol, looks about as low as my old ej6 was when it was dumped. yeah, it won't last long until you either: A)scrape or B)get stuck on a hill

B)get stuck on a hill

lol, even at 5 inches of clearance I scraped and almost got wedged on a hill of a parking lot. I can't even image if I was any lower at the time!!!

I scrape my front lip every time i back out of my driveway or leave a parking lot. UGH


A couple weeks ago I drove through a deep gutter pulling into a Carraba's parking lot, and SLAM onto the ground went the front end of my car. Luckily, all that appears to have hit the ground is the front tow hooks. I was still scared ****less the moment that happened. At the same time, I was hella pissed for them having a 5" deep gutter... WTF

I drove my em2 to the snow when it was lowered hit a tiny pine cone and dented my oil pan :( low ftl.

Good point, im going to have use this.

nice work!
is the interior going to be stripped or are you going to run full interior?

or are you just not going to have rear seats?
If you're not going to have rear seats, I would make a rear seat delete kit out of some MDF and trunk carpet. It would look real nice.

ROFL, where did u get that sticker I want it!!!

he got it from a fat chick........oh, the irony..

stripped from the front seats back. no full interior

No rear seats but im going to carpet and pad the rear so I can sit/sleep back there when its parked.

I have no idea where the previous owner got the sticker. I hate decals.

haha sleepin in a civic doesnt sound fun

notz whenz youz gotz a wata bedz in da trunk foo.

where did you get your valve cover polished? or did you do that yourself. It looked too perfect for the average person. Sand blasted?

LOL WATa bed!!!! that sounds awesome, it would be like a gas bed though.

And no on this car I do everything myself, I don't send off anything, so yes the valve cover was all me.

And no on this car I do everything myself, I don't send off anything, so yes the valve cover was all me.

o wow, how did you do it so well and how did you get into he corners? I'm having a hard time doing it to my valve cover.

o wow, how did you do it so well and how did you get into he corners? I'm having a hard time doing it to my valve cover.

Well seeing as though youre doing it on your daily driver you want it to be done quick. This is a problem my valve cover took like 2 weeks and I want to take it off and redo it. You just have to take your time.

no, I have an extra one just sitting. Alright thanks bro...yours looks really good.

oh gotcha, and its really not that good if you look close up its not as good, just like the ugly bitch at the party

and its really not that good if you look close up its not as good, just like the ugly bitch at the party

that is HILARIOUS. lol

that is HILARIOUS. lol

but you know what im talking about

but you know what im talking about

yea, I LOL'd for sure though. lol

god i hate when that happens. sheesh.

i just call it beer goggles, happens to the best of us man.

Alrighty, I know its been a little while I'm so poor.
So ordered my b series ef shift linkage and the cover for the bottom of the flywheel.
Sorry I never update the front page I'll try and do that today.
Today I put in my Spark plugs, plug wires and dizzy, although I still need one more stupid bolt for the dizzy.
By the end of the day hopefully I'll put in my new fuel pump.
Oh and btw benen fuel rails suck. So I went to put on my blox fpr on (you mod the stock fpr with the blox top end, so the mounting holes haven't changed) and its off my like a 1/16th of an inch. So I go to drill them just a touch wider, both of my craftsmen batterys for my drill have defected...... I drilled the holes with nothing but the bit and my hands :( got it done, heres pics.

This is really coming along nicely.

Thanks, oh and forgot to mention. So the only thing on this car that I refuse to do is wiring. The previous owner had it wired crazy, it might be easy if I at least knew what he did. So there is this honda tuning shop literally 2 miles from my house. www.redzoneperformance.com So once everything is done I'm going to take it to them and they are going to un-f the wiring for me. I'm hoping a month till its running. That would be amazing lol.

Just paypaled someone for my starter. He said he'd ship tmmr. When I get home tmmr afternoon I'm going to raise the suspension as high as possible (to make it easier to get off the side of my house) and try and install that fuel pump.

Check the first page!

ok so I still have this problem. http://www.hondacivicforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=74785 I replaced the master cylinder but it didn't change anything. Also I tried changing the pedal height and still no luck. So if anyone knows how to fix this please lmk.

Starter installed
Flywheel cover installed

Ok so I bought
New (remanufactured) master cylinder
2 NEW oe axles
About to buy online
Clutch cable

So the old ones with new boots will be forsale soon.

Starting to look more and more like a car, i bet you cant wait to drive her.

Starting to look more and more like a car, i bet you cant wait to drive her.

I think about driving it everyday, everyday I'm disappointed when I realize I'm nowhere near there :(

Ok so got the axels in. The previous owner had put the fork for the drivers side suspension in assbackwards... so it was impossible to get the drivvers side in until I realized it. Finished painting the rear bumper filler. only have to paint the spoiler and small part of hatch and eventually the door jams.
got my clutch cable in the mail just now.
Installed the d16 throttle body for now along with just a filter on it, no pipe or anything....for now.

Hopefully in 2 weeks ill be able to drop it off at the shop for them to start it.
The big wheels on it just for that day. they will be off as soon as my idiot friend gives me my jack back.... that he broke. don't lend friends tools they always come back F***ed.

Iv had a lot of prob's with Haspost to, shipping the wrong thing....or taking my money and forgetting to send out my parts.

Have no problem with hasport as of now its swapshopracing.com thats fed my order.

Sorry for no update in a long while, been kinda depressed. But dropped my car off at redzone. Hopefully 2 weeks or less and it will be done, they are super busy. So ya ill get some pics up of some of the work I've done lately.

Shiftlinkage in.
All brakes work.
Oil in.
Radiator fluid in.
Walhbro 255 lh fuel pump in (what a bitch to take out the gas tank in an ef.)
And hella other **** but im too lazy right now to go into it. Ima go cs. Peace.

Redzone? Who are they?

redzoneperformance.com

Ya I don't think this is too popular of a build thread so I'll update when I'm bored.
Along with the other thing I had to put in a type r throttle cable which is basically half the length of the pr4 cable.

Also if anyone swaps all 4 of their brakes for something else..... Ignore the manual. Bleed front furthest from prop valve then rear opposite and so on. Stupid manual made me buy a new master cylinder and waste hella time. but my brakes work yay.


Also I would just like to say publicly,
F**K the DMV. I hate all of you, that is all.

heres some pics.

Ya I'm trying to go to the socal meet this year.

I dropped it off last week. Should be running by next week and hopefully running well enough to drive to socal by that time. Are you going on this sundays cruise to cruz?

valve adjustment$100
Ecu chipping$100
blox fp gauge+install $35 plus 40 install
12" slim fan+install $65 plus 40 install

Ya they charged me alot for small things but its worth it cause of how much bs work they had to do to fix all the FCCKED up wiring in the cabin and fuel leaks and such.

nice dude gotta do a meet soon.

not with this car lol. Needs alot before I can drive it. even starting it is bad.... :(

Don't know what's worse, the video quality or the idle..................lol

it's coming together

Don't know what's worse, the video quality or the idle..................lol

it's coming together

Lol i agree completely the idle is bad and because of the high compression its a sound ive never heard before.

not with this car lol. Needs alot before I can drive it. even starting it is bad.... :(

you got 49 days.

lol na I cant go to the socal meet unless there is 100 octane gas stations the entire way down :(

lol na I cant go to the socal meet unless there is 100 octane gas stations the entire way down :(
dude, bring a supply of octane booster with you.

lol..... perhaps.....

why do you need 100 octane

12.7:1 compression.
With low octane at the compression it will combust before the pistons are at tdc. Which is bad, higher octane prevents this.

oh now i understand. dumb question but i have heard alot of different things about how octane boost or higher octane can damage your engine.

ya if youre lower compression is normally not good without boost. Also first page edited.
there is no such thing as a dumb question if you are learning something.

jpnolan, looks like the idle has been tweeked, a lot better.

If you don't like what I post on my thread gtfo.
I posted it for exactly the reason stated by ej6buddy.
Much better idle after putting on the cai.

Idk if you can see the filter in the last pic but thats where she sits.

Are you going to fab up part of a fender liner to protect the filter from flying debris. I know a full fender liner won't work due to the drop, just wondering if you thought about it.

I used wire cutters and a hammer lol.

where's the facepalm smiley.

No haven't really thought of one yet im thinking a reverse mud flap?

Dude it worked hella well. The tiny screw that holds the cutting wheel for my dremel broke..... wtf.

no, i don't see you taking this thing off-road..........lol. I'm sure you can find an old fender liner from a junkyard and trim it accordingly using the factory clips ( :) clean install)

and yeah, the same has happened with me, mine was just worn out though.

Dude how dare you.... OF course this beast is built for off roading. No but the roads around my house are meant to kill anything nice on a car.

Clean install....LOL no.

You need to either flip your battery around or put some tape or something on your CAI if you havn't already. I have herd a lot of stories of efs up in smoke from cai intake hitting the battery problems.

Edit...

What car is that CAI intake for?

Oh **** I didn't even think about that, Ill have to flip it. Even though it doesn't move too much.

Aem hybrid cai for efs with b series.

New radiator came yesterday... Went to install it today only to realize how bent my radiator support is and how they sent me the wrong one. But either way I got it in... Followed by braking the bleeder..... gay. pics.

AND the hood won't close now and I can't figure out why. WTF. Got more money for graduation so I'm going to be buying my injectors and exhaust soon.

I had hood clearance issues with my aftermarket radiator too. Your top end-tank is probably hitting the frame of the hood. I had to take a hammer to a spot on my hood's frame. It was not a fun thing to have to do.

top end tank?

top of the radiator. The end tanks are the portions above and below the radiator fins.

Gotcha well as youcan see throughout my thread I only use hammers so it shouldnt be a problem. :D

that is a big radiator, s3xy!

that is a big radiator, s3xy!

You have no idea its f-ing massive.

lol is that radiator really necessary?! GEEEEZUS lol beast

Well my other one wouldn't fill and it was leaky as a mf. and with high compression if the cylinders get to hot you get predetonation so imo yes its necessary.

Apexi WS2 exhaust ordered but on back order till the 4th.

Precision 880cc injectiors and wires on the way.

Somehow managed to get temp reg. till end of aug :D
So I can save my $300 for smog until later :P

Injectors were installed today without any trouble except I may have poped a fuel line :D
Also I didn't need wires so if someone wants injector wires hit me up.

well all i can say is you wont have any over heating problems haha are you still looking at cf ef stuff?

ya jesus.... hopefully not.
Ya what do you have?

question in what do you want haha

Sh!t dude I don't even know. Lol lemme think about it and gather funds then I'll hit you up.

no problemmm

Fuel line fixed and the interior is done. Pics tmmr. Had to make some magic happen to make my integra seats fit but they finally have all 4 bolts in.... Both harnesses in. Fuel in. Just waiting on my exhaust to arrive so I can get it tuned.
Also purchased a ctr crank pulley.

sounds good man, you getting it tuned at redzone? Do they prefer to tune with chrome?

Ya, and ya I was talking about getting hondata and they were like its not worth the money we do this. I wasn't going to argue with them lol.

Pics of whats been done lately. Those seats were a bitch to get in.... Full interior is done, once its running I'll worry about getting a headunit that works lol.
I'm moving my battery to right behind the passenger seat, which oh btw doesn't slide lol.

And I bought a new jack because my friend broke mine. Its a low profile aluminum racing jack :)

I was about to say, you might want to run a vent line for that battery due to built up gases.

So I put the battery back in the engine bay for now. It was a janky setup behind the pass seat. So I'll redo that later.

So I have an appt to tune on thursday at noon.

Parts installed. Including fender wells, exhaust, left side blinkers working (but not right), side bumper holderupers installed.
Pics.

Sorry for no more pics. I get them tmmr. And I had an exhaust part modified to make everything bolt up. ASAP automotive sucks. They did a terrible job. Maybe it'll bolt up???

Nice progress!! It's lookin' really mean!
