I don't see why not, you'll probably have to do some experimenting, shape it exactly like you want, and make some sort of support base, make sure to use genuine duct tape, the off brand doesn't work so well, it's something in the metalized coating that acts like release compound to the resin

 

you mean duck brand? or 3m?

 

i wasn't really hating, im just saying it like i see it, doesn't look tucked even for a "mild" tuck.

i had a "mild tuck" and that consisted of, no ac, hidden abs, and relocated my fuse box and wires.
Extremely mild tuck, in this picture i actually still had ac at the time.

 

engine is sold .. 250 bucks left til JDM B16

 

Got some work done on the car today. Picked up a wink mirror today and also got my clutch in. Also order my moroso oil pan and a viberant box muffler so updates on the car will be posted as soon as the parts get here.

While doing the clutch swap i found that my pass axle boot was ripped so i replaced that today as well.

Here is some pic's from today progress. Also would like to thank my cousin dana (my_EFsedan) for lending the hand.



Clutch out and old flywheel.





Old clutch and flywheel compared to new clutch and flywheel




new clutch and flywheel in.




No pic of the wink mirror today but will post some soon. Also will keep pic of the new parts once it arrive.

edit: Was planning on going to the shop and getting a quote on the stickers but ended up doing the clutch. I should be going on my next day off, which is wednesday, to get a quote on the stickers. Sorry for the delay fellers.

 

This was my mild tuck..

 

speaking of tuck

 

i wanna wire tuck my da :/

 

get to work.

 

idk how nor have the tools to do it

 

I wanna wire tuck my bay

 

im about to wire tuck my wagon when i do the b20vtec

 

Hey guys, it's cool! Like I said, it's a VERY mild wire tuck, and it's really just the beginning. I was just doing some maint. work in the engine bay and I saw all the wires on that side and I just thought they looked like a total mess. I tucked a few the best I could for now until I pull the motor out and then I'll get creative.

I knew before I even registered on HT that there were some pretty picky guys on here who "say it like they see it" and that's cool. I know that I don't have the most liked or modified cars on the board, but I love her! Plus, I've only been modifying cars for about a year now, so I'm still learning.

P.S. That is a pretty tucked bay from where I'm sitting! Nice work!

 

U try mounting the top of the strut more towards the center of the hood?

 

XXR 501 ??

 

Yup. The problem is that the strut tower on the car sits too high. There's a little dip, but it's slightly towards the center of the bay, where hood strut sitting now. If I were to bolt it completely down, it would be wedged between the hood and strut tower, creating a nasty gap. To mount it best, it would have to be bolted to the actual hood itself and then I could move the strut forward and bolt it down all the way, but there isn't a place thick enought on the hood. It was pretty frustrating installing this thing! lol

 

Morning BNB ... Daniel how big is the vibrant muffler?

 

Wire tuck a J in a civic. and you can wire tuck anything.

 

but you've got a bigger engine to hide everything behind!

 

mrevan: 2.5 inlet and 3' out.

 

NICEEEEE. come paint my car.

 

Not true. The rear valve cover is like 5-6 inches from the firewall.

 

So any of you eastside guys going to IA Nashville this year?

 

ok so i drove up to visit a friend in providence today and on my way there i had to go over one of those metal plates that construction workers put over big holes when they do road work so i took it slow going over it (because there was a car on the other side of the road so i couldn't go around it) and all of a sudden i heard a bang and the car was at like 347894789356893 decibles....so i got out and this is what i saw (sorry for poor quality)







and here is what i hit. if you look closely i moved the pate...




edit: the exhaust was above the scrub line and bent down when i hit the plate. the corner of the plate caught the first bend in the piping

 

your exhaust looks like it was put to geither very poorly
