Tippyman's Project Thread
I don't really know. I have to set my timing again since i fucked with the distributor. The non-vtec D16 from a 92-95 is basically the same motor as a D16A6, so It should be pretty damn close.
BTW: All my gauges are in and they're all lit. I haven't done the sending units yet since i have no tools at home today.

Coming along nicely Tippyman! whats latest on your block? I only viewed the last 2 pages of this thread till i get more time lol</TD></TR></TABLE>
The latest news on the block is, well, Christmas. I won't really be having any more progress until the new year. I need like $600 to build the engine.
My next project is gonna make the gauges actually work, lol. I gotta run the oil lines and cap the ends, run my vacuum log and cap the ends not used, and tap the water temp sending unit. Then, I gotta wire it all up!
After that's all wired up, I have to go through and clean up the rest of my wiring. I was ashamed to be under my dash today. It's a mess.

Not with the tires at proper inflation. If they get below 30 psi it gets hard, lol.

It's getting there... I'm trying to do one thing at a time. Hoping to be done with the build in the summer.
Almost forgot! Took some pix a few weeks ago. Car is dirty as hell so deal with it.

It's only a little lower than the oil pan actually. And when you think about it, what would you rather hit? There is an ASSLOAD of room in the engine bay with it though...

If you scrape the stock one, this is not for you.
I have some badass bushings in it too so it helps with wheelhop.
Hopefully in a couple days I'll have a whole set of 85a mounts from Autoworks.

That EG has been so whored out it isn't even funny.
the owner of that purple gsr used to own it, then sold it to a guy I work with, he fixed it up, then sold it to the current owner.<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by EF Sedan Enthusiast »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">love the shoot homey. wish i could have been there to take place.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Did a bunch of **** to the car today in preparation of going back to school. None of which is terribly exciting.
I got my vacuum log installed along with the boost gauge hooked up. (Only reading vacuum for now, lol.) Got my brake fluid changed out, some BG 44K in the gas tank, new oil and MOA oil additive in the crankcase, and my new tires all shined up.
I also did the deed of sanding down the infamous rust bubbles that appeared on my rear quarter panel. They were just little bubbles at this point, so I sanded down all the rust and painted over the quarters with Rust Bullet. Yeah, I got silver quarters now. Big whoop, like my car looked pretty before.
I just didn't want the car rusting until I can get the whole car painted. I think my car would look pimp with brand new OEM color paint and nice re-painted black trim pieces and bumpers.
In the summer, maybe. Gotta finish the build first.
