What do you guys think???
Should i sand/polish the Honda vtec letters (like al honda valvecovers) ???

 

Yea you should polish the vtec. Or paintem white.

 

i want to do that to my valve cover so all the ricers will ask me if it is a type r motor and i can tell them yes.

yeah i know it is stupid but man that would be funny.

 

That's a very clean setup. Looks good. And great job on the valve cover. I tried something like that, but mine turned into a glossy red mess. Haha. Oh well.

 

Damn thats pretty sexy

Hey I wanna paint the valve cover like you have.. I want to put black like SI and GSR valve cover.. My friend will do it for me.. I have SOHC with Greddy Turbo Kit... ANyway nice turbo setup...

 

Nice!, what car is this going into? Will that manifold allow for AC?

 

My car is a 94 Civic coupe (purple/red)
It's going to be painted Cumstain white hehehe CW.
I also want some CF spoon mirrors, CF spoon frontlip, CF hood and some 16"rota slipstreams.
We order the spoon stuff directly from japan... but the slipstreams is going to be difficult..... (maybe some OZ chrono's)

But Fist the turbo and acc... i think i really need a 2,5" or 3" exhaust...

I already have a ITR lug 5 conversion sitting in my garage... brakes, main booster+cil, discs, susarms, swaybars and struts..everything!!!!
I'm not sure it fit's.. but i'm looking in to that..

ANd yes the manifold allows AC but i don't have AC (thankgod

Do all of the Greddy manifolds come with a bung on the manifold for the EGT probe? Damn, everyday I kick myself because I didn't buy a quality turbo kit.

BTW, ditch the "blue box" and get yourself a Vortech FMU with 9:1, 10:1, and 12:1 discs and get yourself an inline fuel pump.

 

no, it doesn'tcome with the EGT probe
u got to drill a hole urself

 

Straight up props on a sweet setup!

Im going shopping for some paint in a few minutes. Thanks

 

Thanks, man. What clearcoat should I use? Can I get it from the same place?

Spoon mirrors aren't c/f.

 

so its the clear coat that gives it that texture huh? i could never figure out how to do that. looks really good man

 

Spoon mirrors aren't c/f.?????? are those vision mirrors?? huh?

And no... the clearcoat do'nt give the structure.. but it holds the "powder"structure in place...
I used Normal automotive clearcoat... (not the heat res one!!! that stays sticky until heated to 150C.. and your valvecover wil never see such temps.. hopefully)

 

Hardcore, rock-on with those stocker rims Those are the same ones I have...I've never seen another car with them. weird.
