To nic i miss this car a lot i remember the day he got this car on my 13 birth day poring down snow helping him swap the suspension out in it seems like yesterday we were doing that time fly's by fast. it was fun helping you build this car bud wish you still had it make me wanna cry looking at thos pics of it.It didn't deserve to go where it went. Your husband showed me a lot about hondas over the last 6 years living next to you guys i would like to thank him for all hes done would of never made it this far with my two cb7s.

 

Your car is coming along nicely since the paint job for all the work you put into your car

 

July 28th, come on down if your near by!

 

got my esp traction bar today

 

^ Curious to see fitment on that!

 

Little progress, my dirty control arms with new bushings!

 

Very nice, those are the last ones I need to press but cant find the right size socket. They seem to be different sizes than the back. Do you know what size socket you used?

Are those the ES bushings?

 

I should have it on in the next week or so, I'll get pics of it on!

 

Yes, they are Energy bushings, I bought the master kit, which to me seems to be a waste but I haven't calculated the separate cost yet to see what the difference is.

Socket for what?

 

why do you think it's a waste matt? didn't use them all? or just thinking you could have bought them individually for cheaper?

 

So far I have more I can't or don't need to use piling up but we will see soon. But I mean the TA bushings and sway bar bushing don't come in the kit and are extra. Cost like $50 just for those.

 

 

Can't wait to turbo mine, I'm lookin for another ls motor and get my suspension squared away then its. T-time

 

^ Just LS turbo? What type of build on it?

 

IDK how many Northwestern folks there are in this thread but I'm trying to spread the word. Last night, my car was stolen from my home in Bellevue, WA. Please help me keep an eye out for this car...




Car has UW plates now (not pictured)

 

Just a simple stock block 280-300hp ls with a 60 trim...its been my daily for the last 10 years, but now its my project car

 

Sorry to hear man, I'll keep an eye out.
One of our members DC was stolen last month, recovered it about a week later before it was too bad. There has been a lot of Honda thefts up North lately, unsettling. If you want, you can make a post on our clubs FB page with pics and info. facebook.com/cascadehondacrew
Best of luck to ya man..

 

mine like 6 years ago :p

 

got my explicit speed performace traction bar test fitted, i didnt put the rods on yet because im redoing all my suspension with new bushings

 

Looks good!

 

^Stupid photobucket not working right yet again lol.

Even though I have 3 solid motor mounts this motor (b16a) doesn't have a spot for a front motor mount on the trans like the original ls motor had. Since I only have those 3 mounts (driver, trans, rear) figured this would help keep it a bit more solid. It's kind of an oxymoron though to put a torque damper on a motor with no torque though lol. I did it mainly to help take some stress off the other mounts for when the turbo set up is done, and I just like making things like this.

This idea to use a mountain bike shock was not mine. I got the idea off a member (AltimaXX) on Team-Integra.net

I just made some actual brackets out of steel, had MrGtiiiii weld them, and then painted them to make my bay. Different design than his, but generally the exact same thing. Seems to be working quite well as you can see in this video. Although, it didn't really move much before with the solid mounts. Hopefully this motor will stay solid once it actually does have a bit of torque from the turbo

 

Anyone looking to buy or trade wheels? I'm driving to philly on the 24th.

 

Got my car back in one piece!!!

Except for the radio, the car cover I had in the truck, and my owners manual along with everything else I had in the glove box (registration, insurance info).

They didn't even take my ******* AEM intake which could have been a 10 seconds removal. They dented my hood a little though...

 

glad to hear you got it back man!

 

Congratulations!
Watch your back though, they now have all the info on you/your car.
I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to make a comeback.
You didn't have a remote garage door opener or any house keys in the car, did you?
Thieves started getting clever, popping passenger side door locks (so the owner won't notice), leaving everything intact, and only stealing info/openers to later go inside the owner's house when he/she is not home and rob the place.
