That's a compliment coming from you guys. It's pretty nice for the age, a few minor imperfections, but nothing major.

Hey Joe, if you can PM me what the best offer you've gotten on your seats so far. I would really rather pick up a nice set like yours, but if not I may have to have mine redone.

I have the infamous driver side hole - not huge, but not small either. I was thinking about having both seats redone in the sparco black fabric, but reusing the center panel fabric.

Guys, I need some input on this code 9. the CYP sensor reads off of cylinder #1. #1 is where i've been hearing a loud tapping/knocking sound since I installed the new cam seals and upper timing covers. the distributor is a brand new (since the build) Distributor King dist. and does not make any unusual noises. You think maybe its a rod knock? Loose rod bolts? the one missing pressure plate bolt, causing an off balance situation to the point that it throws the balance of #1 from the rest? I'm just confused as hell. It runs fine, runs strong, nothing indicative of a spun bearing or a rod knock or anything...

also a warm compression test, seems slightly low.built bottom end with 11.5:1 je forged pistons, ported head, no combustion chamber work, stock headgasket. I got 209psi on each cylinder on 8 revolutions. stock gsr's get over 215, and I vaguely remember getting 240 on each cylinder after first startup. This is the first motor I've ever built. It's not burning oil.

I can fit boxes in my civic that I have a very hard time fitting in my Integra Sedan


Hope that helps you decide which one to play with and which one to clean up


I know all the rywire guys are in here so maybe they can answer this:

Anyway to Smog and BAR and B16b or ITR B18c and still keep it obd-1??
Can the B18C be pulled off as a JDM gsR??

So what does everybody think about older 90's Senta SE-Rs? There is one near campus, covered in snow. Looks like it was in a small fender bender and has a messed up front fender and head light...I was thinking of maybe leaving a note on the windsheild and seeing if they wanted to sell it. I need a dd cause the CRX is not cutting it in this shitty weather.

*****.

i drive my gsr swapped sedan that is DUMPED in far nastier weather than arizona snow.

but no the truth is if you get tires appropriate for the weather you can do whatever you need. i drive on studdable snow tires from thanksgiving til mid march...and i haven't gotten stuck in years.

no i hear you but the thing about the snow around here is, is that we get a lot of sun but it still stays around in the 40's or so.

It starts to melt it but then freezes during the night...we get these big *** ice sheets everywhere. then they clump up in ice hills everywhere. worse than speed bumps and pot holes.

electrical.

harness rot...the connectors have such shitty watershields in the terminals that they rot out and then you have all kinds of wierd problems occurring because of poor contact/voltage drop, open circuits, shorting.

every one i had i ended up doing some pretty major harness repair to.

the back windshields rust out int hte upper right corner because of lack of coating causing a water leak in the back seat any time it rains.

hvac control/dash lights are always burning out.

damn near as bad as vw's.

I would just like to say: F*%*^CK U.S. Customs. I had a stash of EF9 parts imported and customs seized it for $300 ransom despite the fact that it was 100% legal, I'm a U.S. Citizen, and all of the associated paperwork was there. Does anyone know of anyone who works for customs in Cali? I'm super broke as it is and if I have to pay that fine I'm totally screwed for food this month.

And even if I pay the fine I don't think I'm getting my **** back in one piece.

Lol, $150 isn't even close to what I have in that crate . I'm just sore because there goes the money I saved by buying overseas. If I wanted to get raped on prices for parts that were in half-as-good condition I'd go talk to the lowballers here on HT .
