with that side I may be on my way back to you guys heart

part out all the show parts, sell the B18c1 and swap in a z6 and just cruise.

The WagonRX is misfiring in all 4 cyl and is at the stealership right now.
would be a lot easier to figure out if it was a honda

anyone selling a z6 swap or know of anyone selling a swap for dirty boy cheap

God I feel like Joe (streetwerkz) right now lol

na, just cut them with a hacksaw and then run a die on them. They are just basically threaded rods.

Trying to stay simple. Thought about a ls but my old z6 was fun. Plus I'm already hard wired for vtec and everything might as well make use of it.
I'm not even going to fully comment on the Honda Scene. **** is LOLarious

I remember when I use to rush to look at pictures of meets back in the day not I don't even venture over to the that part of the forums

Im sure you could throw the kitchen sink of ideas around.. I would check out your O2 sensor though.. maybe all that beating munged it up and it just cant read right.
Check the rotor in your dizzy.. and check plugs.

My obd0 b16 rex was running like that from time to time.. ended up being a fouled 02 sensor. Good luck and chime back with more info.
O2 and plugs are brand new just before the track, but ill check the dizzy.

Its a obd0 dohc zc

EDIT: just checked cap and rotor. Everything is practically brand new there as well. Wires seem good as well. Mind you this is all from just a visual inspection. So now im thinking maybe a problem with fuel?

ASR uses the factory bolts. I'd check the specs on the factory bolts and just order from mcmaster-carr or ARP. I want to buy one of those plates they have at hardware stores that tells you the size/thread pitch of bolts. I've started ordering ARP stuff for both the coupe and CRX engine bays.

Does ANYONE know ANYONE who wants to buy my Regamasters w/tires? Damn these things won't sell! My RPF1 w/tires are up for sale too! I guess I could have sold them a long time ago, but I refuse to ship.

Hahaha, I know what you mean, thats not a bad idea... Im sure you could make one of those hardware store size/thread plates! Im gonna have to go into the hardware store with a box of bolts otherwise!! I appreciate the advice Nick.

I would have jumped on those a few months back.. had I been 3,000miles closer.

This place has a great selection of ARP stuff. I think actual hex bolts or 12 points look way better than allen bolts. The boltboys kits are not my cup of tea.

$1500 and I refuse to budge. They are in Excellent shape. I need to post pics of the RPF1s too. They are flawless.

Anyway, what I do is place a wheel on the ground and then put a round piece of cardboard on the face of the wheel. Then I flip a second wheel over, put them face to face, stab a few holes in the cardboard and zip tie the spokes of the two wheels together. Once they are secured together I wrap the whole thing in plastic wrap. Repeat for other two wheels. USPS is a fraction of the cost of FedEx or UPS. I know you really don't want to ship and you probably don't have to since you are in CA. If you want anything sold in OK, you better be willing to ship.

Exactly. I'm in California. People should be buying these. Haha. So when you shipped those wheels, did they have tires on them?

I've shipped them with and without tires. I think the last set was some old school Rotas without tires and I'm certain it was about $55. It should be about $75 with tires.

Yeah, without tires I have no problem. With tires gets expensive because of the weight.

Shipping sucks either way you cut it.. hard to offer deals to people on used stuff while shipping. local used is where its at. Craigslist has worked at times, yet to list **** on ebay. Or bump the **** out of a for sale thread! Good luck either way. sure the funds will get dumped right back in!

BLU- I gotta thank you again man, still getting those super street's for free from that link you posted! been a couple months now I think. Probably would stop getting it if I had to pay for it.. but cool to get still, Honda issue is decent. I really dont get how they choose some of the cars that go into it though. either way, Thanks!
