Stage1 95% complete.

looks great man. I'm already starting to dream about doing a B20Vtec and I haven't even got the CRV in my name yet.

Where'd you get those VMS camber arms? I'm looking at selling my old civic for the BWR set of coilovers.

LDForget

i got the VMS camber arms from a shop in toronto. You can get them anywhere though. I actually havent installed them yet, but they look pretty stout.

Well, i dicked her good today. After a week of reving it out, the bottom end let go. time to pull it out and see what let go. im assuming a rod bolt but who knows. There are no windows in the block so thats good. I did some more wire tucking today before blowing it up, heres a pic :

LDForget

Well, engines out. Spun cyl 3 rod bearing and seized cyl 2. Dicked her good i did. Cranks *****, rods are fucked, bearings are definitely fucked. this motor is getting recycled for aluminum! lol. Good thing ive got more engines for it.

bump for a fellow cr-v owner

Wire tucks lookin good! Bahaha poor ball joints.

bought a 94 integra GSR for on the cheap. Lowered it and added a type r wing, type r cluster, and type r front upper strut bar. Gonna put my motegi MR7's on it and pretty much call it a day. I like it for sure. CRV has been ignored a bit though. Took the motor/trans out and havent touched it much since. Got laid off a couple days ago so my plans for it kinda got kicked in the nuts. heres a pic of the teg next to the crv.

dogbiscuit

so thats where you've been lately you traitor! over in the tegra fourms.

LDForget

Lol. Havent really been going on any integra forums. i load up the crv forum page several times a day but rarely post anything because its all "what size tire can i run on this size lift/drop"

jdm_eddie

Hahah that's funny.!!!

I'm the same way. Except it happened the other way around. I had a boosted ls, bought the crv and now integra is apart and haven't touched it since lol

Skillachie

That sucks , was really looking forward to all your plans with your V

Oh yeah and if your bored you should do a CRVTEC write up

dogbiscuit

there's actually a really good B20vtec writeup out there on the interwebs.

Here ya go. https://honda-tech.com/forums/all-motor-naturally-aspirated-44/how-build-%22reliable%22-lsvtec-b20vtec-1676914/

probably the best writeup out there. Shows you how to do it right which can be daunting and expensive. but you can get by with doing it cheap, just don't expect the engine to last.

crvtec isnt much different than doing a head gasket...you just put a plug in the oil galary in the different head and slap it on with proper arp head studs, different dowels then put the oil sandwich adapter on and run the oil line to the head. Its simple really. Biggest thing is dont rev it past the stock b20 red line, other wise it'll spin/seize a bearing. Mine did both. Cyl 2 spun and cyl 3 seized. If you want to rev higher you have to get arp rod bolts and take your rods out so you can get them rehoned. while youre there bring your crank in and get them to measure for your new bearings so you can get it all done at once.

Skillachie

Thanks guys

fudpuck

I just saw this for the first time...awesome work! I never even imagined this as a possibility.

Sticker Bomb

That's different for sure, but I would have used the mini iPad so it does not stick out at all and would be flush. But good work still.

LDForget, If I'm ever up your way in Sudbury seeing family, we should meet up and have a little CRV photo shoot.

LDForget

Thanks.

CRV is out of commision at the moment as i spun a bearing. youre welcome to park next to it and take some pics though lol. Ive been driving my integra gs-aaarrrreeeefor the last couple weeks waiting for my built b18c to show up for the CRV. Are you going to fitted? i might go in my integra. I was gonna bring my CRV but that plan blew up in my face.

LDForget

well, parted out the integra, time to concentrate on the V again :D

Sticker Bomb

Wow that guy does not know how to secure a car properly to his truck. The rear chain is going to nothing strong enough to really hold the car in place. It should be off the tow hook on the back or to the slots in the frame.

I know I use to drive a flatbed, and will most likely be going back to it.

Skillachie

oh so thats where the head is coming from

Any updates on the V?

Work?

LDForget

The tow hook ripped off and the frame is rotten. He hooked it up to the strut tower in the rear.

LDForget

No my spare head is from my b20vtec

Skillachie

Having two I envy you
