Hum... that doesn't quite answer my question. Am I correct for the process, that I have to torque the studs to 80, put the head on, then torque the nuts to 80?

Dont torque the studs, just screw them in hand tight (allen tight)

 

Oh. Really? I'm glad I asked. Ok. Then I'll just follow the service manual for the rest and I should be all set.

I always bottom them out with an allen wrench then back them out 1/2 a turn.

 

the two times i've installed them i've read the instructions both times and didnt see anything about backing it out 1/2 a turn. why do you do that?

 

I'm gonna throw this out there, but does anyone have a Sparco/HBK steering wheel hub/boss for sale for cheap? Don't really wanna spend a lot on this as I have other priorities.

 

because otherwise, it defeats the purpose of using a stud and turns them into "bolts". Instead of the head pulling on the block, the block would then be pulling on the head. It is better for the combustion process for the head to pull on the block. thats why we get studs to begin with.


BTW guys: please check out my thread and buy something if you see you need it. http://www.hondamarketplace.com/zerothread/2166806

Hows the k coming? bet your busy as **** with everyone elses car

 

me 2 I just dont post alot. but yay for ef's

 

 

i've had a few EF's for the past couple of years....i just found this thread recently though. i've been posting a lot in the DA Integras thread though. here's my older EFs:

89 Si w/ JDM B18B swap with ITR pistons and crower stage 2 cams:





90 Std w/ JDM GSR Swap:









my favorite part about that car was the B&M short shifter, no console or shift boot (OEM), and the stock 4 spd ****. i loved that. it seemed to catch a lot of attention too.

 

Nice. EF's are the best.

Anyone else remember this thread going like 5-6 pages a night with random posts from CBE, Clayton, Chase, Joe, Bart, Kyle, Chemist, ect. Jeez i miss those times.

 

man, that engine bay looks like ****. i'll throw in a pic of my current CRX when it had the type r swap in it. just cuz that GSR swap is making me upset that i didnt learn more about tucks before i did it.



much like the 4spd ****, the hub caps and extended studs seem to catch attention at meets...

i think EF and DA are tied for the best. but nonetheless they are both wayyy better then "the others."

 

I thought all you ******* were stoned I'm still here. I just hope when I finally post my finished project, you guys don't hate. It's gonna be different, I'll tell you that much

 

sedans

 

My CRX has been sitting for a while, as I've been buying more tools than parts lately..

It will eventually help the building process go faster, now that I have a complete set of tools, and air power . Now I've just gotta get around to getting some parts..

 

haha joe. Send me pictures!!

EDIT: of the car, not of my mom.
