I do

 

I painted my inline pro the same way, it held up. Cast manifold sucks, they rust so easy (even my inline ss mani)

 

Impressive. you must have prepped it really well. I've never had good luck with aerosol high temp paint.

 

hopefully it doesn't flake...it's rated to 2000 degrees

 

I just cleaned it really good with isopropanol and sprayed .

 

polyurethane bushings all around? what do you guys think?

 

i had them on my last crx, wasnt impressed, i opted to get all new oems from my fronts seem to be really nice. Remember you oems are 20 years old, so you really cant judge them.

 

what e-brake cables will work with a hatch with rear disc? i tried a set of 99 SI cables but they did not work even tho i was told they would.

 

Im pretty sure you need cables from a DA. Thats what i have but unfortunately no brakes yet so dont have a sure answer.

 

Yeah i know DA cables work for sure. but im having a hard time finding a used set. i work at honda some im hoping some type of "honda" ebrake cable will work and ill just get them brand new.

 

In my opinion i would stay away form them, although some people love them, i have heard countless stories of them failing prematurely. If you have the money i would go oem or their are companies out there that make hard rubber bushing that are really good. Mugen and pic/suja come to mind, and i think even hardrace has some hard rubber bushing available.

 

Why not go to a pull a part or some other type of pull it yourself junkyard and get some. Every junkyard I've been to around here has at least a couple of DA's rotting in the yard.

 

because its chicago..everything is rusted to hell. its just a pain. meh ill just suck it up and buy brand new da cables

 

crx si rear cables should work too..

 

too short brah, and your thread jacking post is epic....

 

Haaha.. I tell myself everyday im done posting in there!

Thats right.. I forget what works on hatch's now that I haven't had one for a few years.

Heres an epic picture, Ill share here rather than over there..

and if you look in my B.S. build.. I use bricks and get hated on for it. sure glad I keep cinder blocks around!

*Edit- I apologize for the insanely large pic.. I have no idea how to resize it though.

 

Good idea.

 

who would do that on loose ground????

i did it on the dirt one time...then it rained and it started to sink

 

Looks like the pavement broke under one side of the stand. It's not loose dirt. I've had my Crx on stands on dirt for a month or two and had no I'll effects.

Sick picture!

Nick, love that your the only one with a us front out of all the EF's there.

 

and oem paint, rob. eat your heart out.

 

Im about to do a custom exhaust on my ef sedan but i need to pass admissions first. Anybody have a stock exhaust for the sedan or have any recomendations?

 

you can pass emissions with aftermarket exhausts...the emissions are entirely dependant on the cat working properly.


looks like it was rainy all over this weekend... i spent the ENTIRE WEEKEND slopping around autobahn in the rain. had some FUN sessions with the local spec miata guys who were instructing with me though. those guys had a great line in the rain, and we were having a great time.


second session on saturday it was still dry, and my buddy asked me to drive his NA eg...very fast car, but had blown bushings everywhere in the rear, including RTA, and it was unpredictable, spun going rather slow though a corner, and tapped a tire wall. sucked.

putting new bumper and hatch on it tonight, and knocking a few 1/4 panel dents out (pretty tiny, and car was hit back there recently, and not fixed anyways).

interesting weekend.

 

**** i need to do my RTA bushing, i have the tool, just havent gotten around to it.
