Re: D-Series Build - Too Many Options

Y7 block and Z6 head with the EX trans would be a good combo. I waited about 3 months for the Speedfactory rods and caught them on sale and have been happy with them. The Skunk2 Alpha ZC rods are a...

Re: 97 HB Starts without Pressing Down Clutch

Re: Turbo....or high compression

Properly building a D series for boost can be way more expensive than a complete B/K/H series swap. It all depends on what your plans are and your budget. Reliable daily driver? Weekend track car?...

Re: Low oil pressure on warm idle, new build

I'd suspect those main clearances,if I'm not mistaken thats the service limit on them. Are you using the OEM Yamada oil pump ? You could also be losing some pressure by not having the pickup to pump...

Re: 2002 CRV Radiator Fan Not Turning On

I just went through the same thing last week. Top off your coolant and let it run without the radiator cap on for about 15 minutes,this should be enough time to bleed any air out. Don't forget to...

Re: Tell Us What You Did To Your EG/EK/Del Sol Today

Anybody running B&G S2 lowering springs on an EK?
