Of course these aren't the right screws, or the new dash, but this is the bracket finished, it came out really good.











of course this is the reason I had to move the radio in the first place



and it LIVES!!! testing it on a power supply.

works perfectly!! now all I need to do is put some high temp hot glue over the face terminals and the copper shielding tape.





this puts me really close to getting the dash swapped out, once it's in, i can start reinstalling stuff and get this harness all wired up and in place. then the interior goes back in FINALLY!!

 

thats pretty damn neat ahah.

 

yea it became a necessity after I had to put the choke control,the primer and the fuel pressure gauge in the radio din opening. A lot of people have tried to relocate the faces using cat 5 cable and had issues, I believe that wire simply isn't shielded well enough, I bought an HDMI cable off of egay, cut it in half, one half soldered to the face connector, and the other to the radio box board. I used a cable coupler to hook them together. the radio face plug is spring loaded, so I zip tied it down, then epoxied the plug to the back of the face. I tried the same thing before on the same type radio, with cat 5 and a 12 pin molex plug, but it wouldn't work, so that radio became scrap. with the better cable it works just fine.

 

i want new seat's.....

but theres SOOOO many choice's....i REALLY want some rsx leather, but idk have rsx leather money....found some 5th gen prelude seat's at the jy the other day, also found some 85 wagovan seat's that were MINT! i almost bought them, but they sit too high...

 

you should have bought the wagovan seats, those things have a cult following, you could have made a nice profit selling them, it's hard to find anything for the Honda ugly duckling let alone parts in really good shape

 

thats what ive been told....

ill know next time, was informed of what all part's to rob off of it for max profit lol...i would have bought those seats but some *** hole put there greasy hands all over the driver seat and it looked like it wasnt coming out....one PERFECT handprint in mint seat's

 

aerosolve2 from ZEP will take it right out

91_LS, i know i said it before but your car would look dope with an oem or jdp lip and some jdm 1 piece headlights, it would completely change the appearance

 

aerosolve by ZEP.....ill go pick some up, slobalt has some shitty spot's in the mesh black seat's

 

test it in a hidden spot first, you may have to order it, it's pretty strong stuff, but a heck of a solvent, I use it every day at work

 

k, i was a pro detailer for a minute, bentley's, audi's, porsche's, aston martin's....i can clean the **** out of anything....but interior's are my weakness...always tried to keep them immaculate from the get go (no food, no drink's, no heroin....)

new new's: i started a while back ago wetsanding the car, half *** cut it, but never really got the chance to finish it....well i started back at it tonight....ill have rain pic's tomorrow...its the cleanest its been since ive owned it...

 

It would, indeed look good, but i tend to like the black on red look a lot, and I'm buying another lip as soon as i finish my supercharger setup list.

 

Any one have any front shocks fs?

Prefer ef with forks but will take eg/ek/dc

 

just saw this post but...
When i got her..


2 years later..i got a different lip though

 

anything under the hood or interior wise?

 

naa just a stock d16 under there and nothing done to interior, its my daily driver so i didnt want to mess with the engine

 

looks pretty clean. not really a fan of ek chasis but yours catches my eyes. good work

 

thank you

 

I made the templates for the side panels, the temperature sucks, 80 some degrees and 100 percent humidity, I've been crawling around under the dash fitting this stuff.

cardboard template

lexan templates for the left and right sides, I made them out of lexan because it's impossible to see where the support brackets go, I was thinking I wish I had a clear template, DUH! the right side is fitted, now I just transfer it to aluminum, I'm wanting to do a motorized door, where the disk pops out beside the console, It depends on how much clearance I have. I'll just make a small flip down door, I need to get into the guts of the radio again, I need to tie a small relay into the changer eject motor, when the relay is tripped by the motor, it will trip a 2 minute timer, this opens the door for two minutes, the changer mechanism automatically reloads the cd if not removed ,like other changers. I'll put a hidden button to open the door manually to load a disk



these are the brackets that attach to the dash supports.

 

ek coupe is lookin pretty sick. i dig it

 

Black EK

 

Happy Friday BNB!!!
