good luck with everything man

 

Happy Friday BNB!

 

hey dudes....i've got updates coming up in the next week or so...yay for finding wicked deals!

 

going to watch some pro tree shootout tonight at the track. I wanna run my car but I dont want to break a brand new axle againg

 

Okay, so it looks like I'm gonna repair it myself. I would've gotten $1,705 and change from my insurance if I didn't have a $1,000 deductible.So now I got $705 and change to spend on replacement parts. Also if there's frame damage, my insurance will repair it with no charge. and my title stays clean. So right now I'm a pretty happy camper.I would've been more happy if I got the rest of the money.

 

if you have any junk yards like i have around here, you can get all your parts for less than 200 and still have a lil over (if you dont have to paint anything). not a bad deal

 

my buddy in socal is selling a ebp front end 400 iirc

 

Yeah junkyards here, you gotta be the first one to see the car to get what you want. Otherwise all the parts are gonna be gone, on the day the car enters the lot.

looking for a GBP 96-98 front end, but shipping would be insane.

I can get another one, no problem. 60 bucks BNIB from the dealership.

 

wow that sucks. i know how that is. thats why i drive at least an hour to go to junkyards that not as many people go to.

Next upgrades will be done to the brakes and suspension. I'm going to swap the stock 242/drums for Civic MB6 VTI (EDM 5-door civic, B18C4) 282/260 brakes. Because this brakeswap is 4x114'3 I'll have to buy some new rims. I'm thinking of Rota Grids (TE37's in 16" 4x114'3 are impossible to find over here). I have the brakeswap laying around, but I'm collecting parts now to do a lot of things at once.
-Front 282 Brakes w. new discs and Ferodo DS2500 brakepads
-Rear 260 brakes w. new discs and Ferodo DS2500 brakepads
-Energy suspension Trailingarm bushing
-Energy suspension masterbushing kit
-Steel braided brakelines
-1" Brakecylinder and booster
-Cusco style brakestopper
-New 16" rims for the summer, 15" Civic MB6 VTI rims for the winter

After the brakeswap has been done the wishlist looks like this:
-Removing rust from rear q-panels
-Respray the whole car in R81-3 Milano Red
-ITR swaybars front and rear
-ASR brace, rear upperstrutbar
-Cleaned, shaved and tucked enginebay
-Respray enginebay in white
-B18C-R engineswap
-along the way this list will grow...

The car in it's present state:

http://youtu.be/e_fgeUTtHQI A little bit of J32 civic action after going to the track. Sorry for the poor video quality, it was at night. We both had passengers. The camaro took off late after the horn blew. He's a good find of mine. Known him for years.

 

Damn that coupe is looking fresh!

I got some updates for you guys and will post once I get off from work.

 

is it gonna begin tonight daniel?

 

You ever get that ls vtec swap?

 

well i did some work on my integra saturday and sunday...

pulled the non vtec head off



then while i was in there with full access to the back side of the block, i ran my fittings and lines for my oil pressure gauge and my turbo oil feed line



boost and oil pressure gauges in their mounting spots



and then put the z6 head on and put everything back together



and here's a quick video of it running. don't mind its retarded idle, i haven't gotten to that point yet. that is on the list for tomorrow. along with re-doing the vtec wiring (was done previously, but one of the wires came out of the ecu and i'm just going to redo it all) and probably gonna head to the junk yard to find a new radiator for it since the one in it now decided give up the ghost finally



*note- the turbo is not on yet. want to make sure i get everything running 100% first. don't need to keep adding more problems on top of existing problems. once i get the idle straight and the vtec working, then its time to have fun with some boost

 

No, got home around 8 and decided to wait until tomorrow to start on it. Didnt feel like running into problems..

I just picked it up yesterday. That was the update i was planning on sharing but the motor is still sitting in the truck and i didnt get a chance to snap pic since i got home kinda late.

also will be swapping everything in tomorrow w/ the turbo. :crossfingers: hopefully there isnt any problems.

LMFAO! OH MY GOD VTECCCCC! PRICELESS!
