I had pretty busy weekend. I began by installing the Password JDM Dry Carbon Intake system on the Si. It was a pretty easy install, instructions would have made it easier. :D
Then, I went to my friends shop to use his lift to install the Password JDM Shift Linkage Bushings, Stainless steel brake lines, and the Wilwood 4-Piston Calipers and Rotors.



Old and New Bushings:




As for the rear bushing, You need to purchase two washers! The Bushing actually slipped out of the sockets because the washer was too small. There was a bracket on the old bushing, but it didnt seem to come off, either way, problem solved.


The Wilwood System is great! I had to purchase a set of 17s to get them to fit. I went with the Momo X-43s. Great deal on a set with new tires. Had to bleed the brakes twice as the first time the brakes where still soft.





On another note, I was trying to figure out why my VTEC is weak and the Speed Sensor CEL is on. I checked fuse 15, not burnt, so I took out the Speed Sensor above the trannny and turned the gears, speedometer worked. I also took apart the VTEC Solenoid and cleaned the filters. I think the issue if the leak in the head gasket. It's a good size leak, so it's loosing some pressure.

Next Project, replace the head gasket. Anyone bored in houston? :D

i know he has mentioned KAF before from time to time. i know when he was just home on leave in dec he said he was there waiting to fly out to come home. he's a light wheel mechanic, but does pretty much everything. i know he goes between posts a good bit, or he used to anyhow.

Thanks guys! The stickers have had much "love & hate" words but it’s cool! I like but no ricer here... lol
The plans in the making for this project will be a complete SCCA "STREET CAR" so this car will be driven... No AC no PS & whatever else I can remove. I’ve had this H22 just begging me to rebuild so in mid June will be my starting point. I will have my first seat time by the end of March.
