Nice, thats a heck of a drive! July is a long ways away, Im sure we all will get a lot more serious as it approaches. If the car is done: Count me in!

I feel like we need a centrally located meet to make it fair to everyone, Kansas?!





Boosted, Id be down to run a convoy with you... I may have to trailer my car though, The last place I will drive my queen is through NYC.

Sounds like a plan...I have never been to Oklahoma but OKC cant be farther than a 24 hour(2day) drive for anyone. We would have to make it big to really make it worthwhile for some people traveling that far. but I think it would be cool to have a once a year centrally located meet that most people could attend. Honda's only of course.. EF's to be exact! This would take a lot of investigating and planning on your part Matt. but could be the biggest EF meet known to man!!!


Still down for the WMHM as well.

I was mostly kidding. OKC would be centrally located and downtown OKC is where I-35 (major north/south interstate) and I-40 (major east/west interstate) meet, but I wouldn't have time to plan something like that. Plus, I'd like to get out and go somewhere new anyway.

parking lot meets are boring...track AND parking lots meets are drastically more interesting.


hotsauce01, i've driven my hatch through NYC, its brutal.

it was over-oiling the turbo at the time, and i seriously laid a smokescreen down through times square (back when you could drive through there, dont think you can now), and people were screaming at me. lol

HAhahaa, I have driven through the city in plenty of regular cars, trucks, etc. but I wouldn't put the torture of a coil-over set-up through the punishment that is NYC streets. Im glad you crop dusted em'... place could use a new stench!

I would love to go to more events outside my normal realm of car shows/meets. I'm getting tired of the same old, same old.. Some shows I go to I feel like I'm still in 1999, looking at the same sh*t. A track event, that lets us use the track as well, Thats something I wouldn't miss. I would love to take my car for a few laps on a Super speedway like Daytona or Talladega!

clutch doesnt fully disengage, i rechecked the hydraulic system (slave and master cyl) before i took it back apart. fork is good and throw out bearing installed correctly, removed the clutch you can see marks on the friction disc where the diaphram for the pressure plate is hitting the disc, not letting the the clutch fully disengage. its almost as if the center section of the friction disc is too tall, and compared to the factory clutch i pulled out, it is too tall. im definately no stranger to mechanics, im a technician at a diesel shop. i was doing clutch jobs on a daily basis with clutches that weigh 150 pounds lol.

Those of you with upgraded brake master and booster - Which 1" is a direct bolt in to a 91 Crx si? I would like to avoid replacing lines with custom ones and having to flare the lines etc.

perfect circle where the diaphragm fingers are making contact with the friction disc. im still unsure at this point if its just a workmanship issue on their part or if they sent me some mismatched parts. I emailed these pics to comp clutch so hopefully ill know something soon.

you can kinda see where the fingers made contact

IIRC a 90-93 integra with ABS is 1inch but your going to need an adapter b/c one hole is a 12mm not the normal 10mm. but you wont have to bend lines...or you can use a 15/16 which is off a civic sedan and that bolts right up.

yea i think it was the EX that came with the 15/16. I have a 15/16 from a non abs DA integra and it bolted right up and you also get the bigger reservoir
