Im leaning more to the RPF1's mainly b/c of the weight reason. The works just weigh too much. I need functioning nice rims... not just some baller rims and when that time comes, ill get more baller than some works.

What other rims are out there that weigh around the same as the rpf1's in 15x7? not too familiar with whats out there. Not much of a wheel *****.... yet.


Found this JDM Nostalgic Wheel Thread... http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/foru...opic.php?t=605

im not really worried about the money, those works are a little pricey as well. Ive never really liked Volks, at least not in 15inch form.

Wish I had or was good with photoshop.

Thinking of maybe some Jspeed II's with some custom powder coating.. I like the polished lip.

stumped trying to block off my heater ports without welding them shut.. Im told theres a honda bolt used for the valve train that can block the one on the head.. not sure what this is off of or where to find it.

and someone said to use an obd0 thermo housing... but from what motor.

Anyone running no heat?

Thank you soo much.. Cant find any info on this.. Im pretty sure theres only the 2 spots that need to be blocked off.. the one on the head, and the other looks to be coming off the water pipe.. b18c.

This is driving me crazy!

Okay...this should help. It's a oem honda npt plug...like the one on the front of the block. Look to the right of the picture by the upper rad. hose. For the back water pipe you simply need a little condom cover...you can get them at an auto parts store and just put a clamp over it.

Your wago is nice, but I see the massaging you did on the fenders At least you can enjoy driving your car with that offset (as evidenced by those pictures). Is that Miller?

Coronry Heart Disease, iirc.

Vega, the 16's I had were +20, and you would either have to dial in the camber or roll, otherwise even one person in back would have my rear fenders on the wheels. But that was 8's, so 7's you should be fine.

I didnt realize that the neck of that came out.. thats what was stumping me. still unsure of where to actually find that NPT plug.. anyone got a part number or want to sell me one off there old head?

This is whats on my b18..

As for the water pipe... I guess the only thing to do is cap and clamp it. or remove it and weld it shut/smooth. I found this water pipe that I think is from a b16, but my b18 thermo doesnt look like that one... and my water neck has 2 lines running in(one is heat, one is for oil cooler around the filter)

I guess just using some quality caps will do the job.. appreciate the advice.

If anyone has a plug for the upper that they can pull off an old head that would be sweet!
