Silver ones are 15x8 +28, black ones are 15x7 +35

 

I just got done reading through your whole build and I love the progress you've made! Man that b20 was ripping before the rings went out on you! I'm sure the b20V will be killer when it's done

 

sorry to hear about the piston rings man, but I can't wait to see it finished with the new vtec head and other goodies

 

yea I'm excited also, probably not going to happen until next year!

vtec valve cover came, first up is stripping it and primer!

yea, that will look great in the bay



first time using paint stripper





almost there



all stripped



taped up and primered at work





after I get some -10 AN bungs welded in for the catch can I will be using VHT wrinkle red to finish it off!!

 

go-kart track day again!! was able to accomplish my personal goal for this year, after being in the 1:18's for about a year and half, yesterday I was 1:17's all day. I was able to put down a 1:17.09 twice!! unfortunately the track will be getting demolished next year so the new goal for the next 2 events there is to get in the 1:16's.

 

Is it faster than his buddy's EVO & STI?

 

About 4 seconds faster than the white subie and 1 second behind the white evo. I've got track record for fastest FWD with my 1:17.09. Track record for street car is the red evo from before woth 1:15.90, the white evo got a 1:15.95

 

I bet you're proud as f*ck. :D

 

double header this past weekend, finished mid pack. needed a bit more power

on sunday we got a wave of rain. pictures are about an hour apart





and videos

 

Looking great so far! What a difference of weather in one hour, damn

 

Do you see any differences with that splitter?

 

Update: i was debating for a while whether to sell my subie or keep it for another 2 years to pay it off. went to Carmax to see what they offered and left with 19k, after 14.5 payoff, came out with 4.5K. ive been trying to find another cheap daily but i think I'm just going to finish my b20v this year. so heres a big parts update.. after debating and some persuasion from a couple guys I've decided to run the b20v on E85!! so I ended ordering bigger injectors, fuel pump, and extra jug for when I go out of town racing! For ecu ill be going with obd1 Hondata S300 which is the only thing I have left to order. the last thing I'm looking for now is an EM1 wiring harness so I don't have to cut or splice any wires.

one last pic of the subie



and parts pic



oem parts:
oil pump, tensioner, PS bracket, VC gaskets, misc.
NGK wires
NGK spark plugs
Walbro 255 fuel pump
ID 1000's
ACL Thrust, rod, and main bearings
Password JDM oil baffle, magnetic drain bolts
VP racing 5gl jug
Skunk 2 VC grommet kit

found some downtime in a couple weeks, hopefully the new build will begin then

 

Finally after 2 1/2 weeks got my RS machine pistons.. ECU is ordered and waiting on arrival. only thing left is the wiring harness!
Got the valve cover sprayed also, wrinkle is really inconsistent even when I went through all the directions correctly. also got a spark plug wire cover







Motor is coming out next week for rebuild, really excited. if all goes well, I will still be able to get 8 or 9 events on the new setup

 

Looks good dude glad the plug cover arrived finally.

 

If you were setting records with the stock b20 in curious to see what your do with the new setup. It should be a lot of fun and I'm sure you'll give your friend in the evo a run for his money

 

Cover looks great, just like original.

Btw, can someone pls tell me what for are those two holes? I see that a lot, but don't know what for is it.

 

thanks, looks great on the valve cover

already do on a cone course, can't wait to see what it does now!

thanks, and holes are AN male bungs for oil catch can

 

cars was acting up lately, took the distributor cap off and I think I found the problem



was going to take out the motor this weekend anyways but since I couldn't get a distributor just pulled it out Friday/Saturday, relatively easy except I ran into a bit of trouble with the bitch pin, so I looks like it will be permanently stuck on the linkage.. not worried right now until I have to actually need to take it out.. also ordered a few more parts and Hondata ecu came in also



getting ready start the tear down!!



Friday evening, all I had left were the motor mounts



Saturday morning



next up is drop it off for disassembly and machine shop! about 3 weeks hoping to have it back in and tuned!

 

time for update!! didn't take many inbetween pictures since I get into the zone once i start putting the motor back in! the casting was so shitty from the intake manifold, i had them port match and it looks great!



fluid stock up



after getting the motor back and dropping it in, still had the suspension, axles, and header to install



finally on the ground and out of the garage!!





hood back/bumper back on, catch can and lines ran!!





first fuel up, dyno tune is coming up next, we'll see how much she makes!!

 

finally got the car dyno tuned and it made 195hp/150tq. kinda disappointed but I think its in the cams.. probably going to switch to pro2's in winter





first event today on new setup, car felt great and definitely felt the power difference. it was a pretty tight course so can't wait to open it up on a different course

 

with the off season starting, time for an update and future goals

starting off with some unfortunate happening, after coming off my second run I come to my grid spot and hit the brakes and they go all the way to the floor. I was pumping it hoping it would come back but it wasn't and it looked like a puddle of fluid. I jack up the car and find this!



500 mile oil change on rebuilt motor before brake lines busted



waiting for my ride, good time for pics


with my luck, it happened to be an event that was 3 hours away with no one familiar so had to call some back up for a ride back home



lines were a bitch to get on, ended up doing both lines to the rear, and fuel return and fuel feed lines. had to drop the tank and front subframe a bit.
the modding didn't stop there though, got it buttoned up and also had a bucket seat installed. PCI rails and momo evo Daytona seat!





sigh of relieve pic after getting the lines put it and finally on the ground again



video of the 2nd run before lines busted, ended up finishing 11th raw with only 2 runs


I was still able to get a few events after the fixing it.




Iowa Speedway event, with buddy that finished with FTD





second to last event car was understeering like crazy, tires were shot!

 

last event of the season




also was wanting to try a more aggressive wing.. decided with a BYC wing, I had it mocked up was waiting on some mounts. should be on there solid this week







2017 plans, not much but something to keep me working

ASR Rear Sway Bar
Skunk 2 Pro2 Cams
EX front brake upgrade:
DBA T3 4000 rotors
Rockauto calipers
Carbotech AX6 pads

 

love this build ! .

 

thank you

got the bearings pressed in along with ARP studs got the new brakes in, looks like a larger MC is in sight of the near future

larger surface area on the brake pad
