huh i'll have to try miguires i've heard good stuff about them. yeah i think i'll put mine away as well, i want it to LAST. it sat outside in a puddle for idk how long before i got it, and has shrunk hella. it's supposed to be for a sedan.

 

well i WAS going to pull my motor and trans out of my car today and start prepping my engine bay for a new color. but that didn't work out so well, because apekd's car finally left my garage. it's going to a new home tonight.

any ways instead of working on my car i ended up cleaning up my garage hella. not done yet, going to re arrange some stuff but over all it's much more roomy now and i have room to pull a car in and out if i need to work on it. also installed an oem oil cooler from a crx hf, my water tube and thermo housing, my ac compressor bracket in prep. for ac and my breather box.

 

damn, i wish i had a garage to work at

 

wow...whats with that rim I see?

 

it's apekd's friends advan mmmmmmmmm 4x114... if i had that i'd deff. rock some ssr long champs

 

hahaha for the most part i JUST got it back. my old/ apekd's hatch has been in there since i moved into the place (i just recently sold him the hatch) so i'm now cleaning up all the messes i made and am getting things sorted out. but it will be nice. going to make it kind of like a half hang out place, half work area

 

mmmmmmmmmmm just found this shot. here's how it used to look... and how it will again! well... as far as paint goes. lol

 

...ha,ha...If I ever gave away my ed6 stuff to ya...i wonder what it would look like??? hmmm...............

 

^^ lip,side skirts,bra & wheels..........man im board.

 

mmmmmmmmm man those wheels look good on my car! lol it's not too noticable but i already have a small mean mug look going on. but damn i'd love to have some serious eyelids. you wouldn't happen to know where i could get some? are you rockin ek side skirts?

 

for the eye lids you can buy mitsubishiv5's headlight covers and trim them to what ever shape or design you like.

 

they're not "eye lids", I had my bra made like that. and yeah 01 civic sedan skirts

 

where'd you get your bra made? i like mine but it's really ratty and i'd like to have a newer one, similar to yours. my girlfriend says i could check at victoria's secret.... but idk if they'd carry my car's size... lol

i love the whited out plate

 

^^ yeah, but I had to replace the plates cuz modding them is illegal. So now therye brand new and illegally mounted on the dash board. btw the bra was made @ a damn good upholstery shop. $100 ..but sshhhhhhhh. dont let any1 else know.

 

hahahaha nice. i'll have to search around portland for a good shop then.

just took my hatch for a drive around the block for the last time with the worn out d15b1 and the 4spd tranny. oh well. within the month (hopefully) it will be back with a refreshed d15bvtec mini me with an si trans.

if any one needs a 190mm, 21 spline clutch lmk, the clutch and pressure plate in my car is BRAND new, has not even 400 miles on it.

 

AGH decisions decisions. both my a6 and my d15b need a rebuild. idk which one i want to go with tho. the a6 i have pm7 rods and pistons that are going into it, which would give me close to 12:1 cr with my z6 head, as apposed to approx. 9.8:1 w a z6 head with pm6 pistons, or the 10.0:1 with the d15 mini me.

any ways both are at the same state (the a6 would need new bearings as i have lost/thrown out the old ones, although none were spun) as far as rebuild goes, but which one should i go with? price wise it is almost the same, and either way i'd need to get a dyno tune, either to compensate for the higher compression or for the lack of a liter.

help??

 

how dare you show my advan! lol now are you GLAD that you got that oil cooler and header off my motor? lol wonder if the guy will even notice that they are gone when he comes to buy it. oh well, he is scrapping it so I dont care haha oh yeah, and post pics of that little beauty i am letting you have for freezles from the 89 too. you know, that one thing i held the flash light while you put it on? lol

 

hahaha it kind of snuck in there. i tried to avoid it, but it kind of just jumped in there last second. lolz

 

yeah cause a rim can jump haha ugh tired of seeing 240's that are hatches throughout all of CL...grrrrr...stupid hatches...i want a dam coupe! haha

oh and i tired to get him to say yes to me taking the "timing belt" off the engine, cause i was gonna throw a Z6 head on it and give you the Y8 head for the D15B, but he got butt hurt and said no haha

 

oh well thanks any ways haha my z6 head has had a fresh rebuild tho so this works out better i think

 

UGH mom is trying to force me to put off pulling my engine and tranny. UGH! but she will not win! going to work on cleaning up the garage first THEN engine and tranny WILL be out! watch out, a satin black engine bay is comming soon... with more awsome wire tuckage

 

^hmmmm, what about a white or gray bay? satin black would be nice, but I think it will remind me of people who paint the outside and skip the bay haha

oh and that guy who looked at the civic the first time is gonna buy it, just gotta wait a week (GRRRR) so his buddy can get the other 150 and then they will be down to get it.

 

cool. nah i want a nice dark engine bay, so that it hides the dirt. even if i cover up everything with towels and what not, a light colored anything will stain with the dirt. plus it will contrast nicely with the red

 

changed my headgasket tonight. ****er was TOAST. it never sealed fully because (i think) it didn't have dowel pins last time. but i installed a set, and slapped a y8 head gasket on there, and boom works great. no over heating, no smoking, no burning coolant or oil or anything. but i managed to make the timing a tooth off i think. scary, i drove it around. NO POWER!! lol i almost didn't make it out of my friends apartment drive way, it was a very high slow. bogged out in first when i was flooring it... lol

so tomorrows plans are:
fix timing
change tranny to my si

 

^want some help? I I got nothing to do for a bit. starting to bring my tools back to my parents and organizing them. I have a BILLION extra sockets and **** haha i love having 21 MILLION extra sets of tools
