I just got my wife 98 civic HX, It does have some emissions issues. I have been reading the boards for about two weeks now.
I read a ton of good stuff in here. So I thought I would post.


OK, now that I have that out of the way.
Im not a newbe to working on cars. Just new to working on Honda's
Theses cars have a freaking sensor for everything.

I'm trying to bring pistons back into my life.

here's the Banger I'm a huge mazda Rotary Engine fan.

I have 79 RX7 13B FI T3T4 Trust Turbo aftermarket IC. Running the Mircotech LTX8's EMS. HKS waste gate turbonetics BOV
dynoed @ 6800 rmps 10psi 349 hp to the wheels.
I need to finish the exhaust from the DP back in 3" I need more flow.
Then we will re dyno her. The motor will Tach to 9000 RPM's no problem.

what a tough group. 44 views and not even a hello.

I'm mainly here to learn about my honda. I have worked on all types of cars, most of them being rotary engines. I use to race them a lot.
i was having some emissions problems, with the wife's 98 HX with a lot of reading, and help from mk378 forum member here. Thanks again for all your help. The car runs so much better now.

I have a lot a knowledge on doing turbo setups and superchargers . I can tune most the EMS. I myself have a Mircotech LTX'8, it's designed for the rotary motors.
I will post up some pictures of the honda when the weather is a little nicer.
You wouldn't want me to put pictures of a dirty car.

But for now i'm gonna post up, just a few picture of my rotary turbo setup.
Also is anyone in here from Washington State ? Just because i sure seen a ton of hondas at the race track.

Thanks for reading

I rebuilt this last summer. This motor is in my 85 Gsl-se



This motor went in my sons car, the motor is in the car and running.
just not ready for the road yet. still needs some tuning.

 

Is that second engine carbureted with a blower on it?

Welcome to the forum! You will learn tons.

 

yes it is, Its a Camden supercharger with a 650 holley dbl. pumper. The car runs really good now, just needs some fine tuning. Here is a video of the first startup's

This THING is gonna be crazzzy. it will be running at 20 PSI of boost, after break in. It has a 3-5 psi pully on it now. in the video it has open pipes, It has a muffler on it now, but still loud as hell.

Hello, Again

Well it was a nice morning, so I though I would snap a few pictures,
Anyways here's me 98 Civic Hx ...Daily Driver
its got some small dings here a there. Maybe I'll repaint it in the future.

Yeah I also paints cars on the side.

 

nice car's welcome to the forum

 

Sweet, very nice shiny engines you have there. I am also new to this site, pretty new to car mechanics and 4 stroke, but have some years of 2 stroke and small engine. I'm hoping to learn alot.

I thnk that you will like the honda civic if you have not been around them, especially that one. Those are my favorite model from that generation. I even like them more than the hatchy , which is very strange for me.

 

Thanks Guys,
Ganjar420 , If you like working on two stroke motors, I'm surprised you haven't played with the Rotary motors. they are kinda like two and four stroke engines.
In my one rx7 I blocked the (OMP) Oil metering pump, it got in the way of the turbo.
Now I have to premix the fuel with two stroke oil. The OMP system adds a little oil to the fuel, when you are in the gas. the oil just gives the rotors a little extra lube.
Rotarys are big on horse power, but really big with torque.
