drove my car for the first time in 3 months this week, now my tach is goin crazy. at idle it reads 0 but when you give it gas it reads normal and sometimes it bounces around and will sometimes peg out past 8000rpm and stay there, any body ever had this problem, its a stock si cluster, think the problem could be in the dizzy?

I have that problem too. When I'm @ idle my tach says 0rmps. But it doesn't do all that other stuff yours does.


But I have great news. I'm officiall converted to SCCA

I've gone twice and evertime I get freakin excited thinking of my car knocking over cones

I always see atleast 3 90-91 civic Si's down there. Stock to
ST rear sway bar, front sway, koni yellow and CG, Potenza's and thats about it. No roll bar and no tower bars.

I think I'm a little over done but I'll be giving it a try soon as my tranny is done.

yeah the cool thing about it is the Si were owning some of the other cars out there like the porchse's and ****. Maybe the actually didn't car about rock chips as much.

I took picture i'll upload some when I get home.

I think once I'm all settled in I might try and arrange a EF/ED day out there. Its only $15 to run for a day and the year membership is $65

Drive what you brung, just pass tech and it's all good.

I'll let you know whats up Alan for sure, you can take picture of my car for me since I only have show pictures

I truly spent a lot of money on this trip, but it truly was worth it. The grandma and I split most of the expenses.

we visited: Juneau, Skagway and Ketchikan Alaska, Tracy Arm Fjords and Victoria, British Columbia and Seattle twice. Victoria must be a city full of ballers, lots of modded cars downtown. Bastards in their hassle free Skylines.

M roadsters have been a fav in my car groups as well.

Its funny how most EF guys tend to gravitate towards the same style body cars

Fits, Subura WRX/STi' and now M roadster coupes

If the fit came with ***** I'd take one. If the Civic Si came in a hatchback I'd have that on my to-consider list as well. Why did the US just quit making nice hot hatches?

audi a3 < volvo c30

okay I'm in the middle of doing a DA brake swap onto my 90 civic.

the problem i am having is the master cylinder is from a DA and one of the fittings is a larger size than stock 10mm. it maybe a 12mm but I don't know. does anyone know of an 10mm to 12mm adapter fitting I cant seem to find one through summit, earls, etc. that would be the easiest option for me.

if there isn't an adapter i might have to change out the line. my second question is will a 12mm fitting fit on the same diameter hard line as a 10mm?

and if that doesn't work i guess I'll have to get an different booster and master cylinder from a crx. but this is the last of my options.

any help would be appreciated, i can get pics up if needed.
