Scott's Ek Build: Shaved and Tucked
Sticker bombed my lip today. Bought the Stickerbomb book off Amazon for $18, some werid *** **** in there lol. Regardless it made for a good base level sticker, going to order some more to put on top... like I <3 Haters, Canibeat, OpenClutch, etc. Turned out pretty good though, we will see how it looks on it.
Looking at the B16 tomorrow night for those who care.
I also have a new Seen It! sticker on the way. This one is 2' long (mine is currently like 10") and neochrome (like the one on my lip) and will be replacing the purple one on the bottom of my windshield!
Whole thing


Representin!



Do YOU have a titty sandwich on your lip? Didn't think so...

Picked up the B16 today, will post some pics tomorrow. Super tired and have to work in the morning. Already started stripping down the motor a bit, took ac compressor and ps pump and such off.Motor is pretty damn clean inside, needs to be cleaned on the outside. Need to order a few things:
-Coolant temp switch... I broke the one on it on accident
-TPS... broken apart, might just get a Blox one
-Rear t bracket... ordered already
-Valve cover gasket set... obviously
-Dizzy cap... broken
-Clutch (just going to get a flywheel right away too)... probably go Exedy oem replacement and a lightweight Fidanza flywheel
-Header... eBay header for now
-B16 trans... looking
-Mounts... have to send CVC money
-Shift linkages... looking
-Axles... looking
-Timing belt water pump... have to price through work
So I've got a lot to get still, and a lot to do. Have to prep the motor, paint the block and head and what not. Hopefully I can find a trans asap and have this motor in in about 2 weeks!

Update time.
First of all here is the StanceWI where I took my car last week. Lots of sweet *** cars, good video on the main page too (my cars in it like 40 sec in lol)
Stance WI - Get Stance, Stay Awesome! - Stance Wi
This coming weekend is King Motorsports meet, going to be huge and I can't wait for that.
Haven't done much with the B16 yet. Like my last post, I took off things I don't need. AC compressor is off, PS pump, and other random stuff. Tomorrow I am going to start cleaning off the block. I plan on painting the whole motor, not just the block like I did with my y8.
Here's my update on parts status (bold=ordered/have):
-Coolant temp sensor: Ordered a used one off eBay off a B16 = $15
-TPS: Ordered Blox = $38
-Rear t bracket: New oem = $58
-Valve cover gasket set: Getting tomorrow
-Dizzy cap: Getting tomorrow
-Clutch: can't decide if I want to get the Exedy oem clutch + 7.5 lb Fidanza package, 7.5 lbs seems way too light
-Header: eBay header = $62
-B16 trans: currently talking to a guy I know who has a jdm b16 trans, waiting on a price
-Mounts: Bought Drop Engineering from CVC = $225
-Shift linkages: Same guy I know with the jdm B16 trans has linkages, waiting on price
-Axles: Same deal with same guy as lonkages
-OEM Timing belt water pump: Need to get part numbers tomorrow so they can order them for me
-Radiator hoses: Going oem
-Intake manifold gasket: Going to pull the intake and polish/clean it up
-Energy shift linkage poly bushings: The tighter the better = $14
-P2t ecu and obd2a to obd2b conversion harness: looking
Still unsure what I want to do about a radiator. I might just use worm clamps to suck the B16 radiator hoses on to the smaller intlets of the sohc radiator, or I might just suck it up and spend $70 on an aftermarket aluminum radiator. I don't know yet.
Bringing it home:
