Does anyone have a spare IAT sensor laying around? It's one of the last things I need to finish my swap.

2-3 months of work, whats up next.. full cage? Still doing the J's front?

those 949's look so proper.
It's always been there. Car is far from perfect. All the dings and that one dent have been there since I bought the car off the original owner in 2002. Some day I'll repaint the whole thing. And yes, car will be getting caged soon!

The one on the intake manifold or a newer sensor that goes in the intake arm?

Haha, Im not sure if his will work, well it would probably fit.. but we have sunroofs. not sure if that matters, I do know its one of the questions though while ordering a new one.
As much as I want an Autopower.. I think a real cage is the only way to go now. Unless a good deal on a local one comes around.


Nice gif Blu!


Wish I could help NA.. Is this what your looking for?

matt, does the y8 manifold have the sensor? if no (like 99-00 si's, those are in the intake arm), take a factory one and punch hole in bottom of intake arm and put it there...

cant remember where they are on y8s..

otherwise, text me a pic of the hole it goes in and i'll find one around here and ship it out.

Anyone have suggestions for a replacement brake master cylinder brand ('88 HF)?

Reason I ask is it appears mine has been replaced before, but has continued to leak since before I bought the car. It's getting to the point where I'm going to have to replace this thing and I'd prefer to do it really soon. Like today.

Junkyard 15/16 mc from a DA or civic ex. When it comes to brakes, I would go OEM and nothing else. So if you have to order new, try to do so.

There isn't a hole on the manifold for it, but there is a plug on the OBD1 conversion harness. We planned on just drilling out the intake tube and running it underneath like you suggest.

I have 2 or 3 obd-0 IATs, but none of the OBD-1 or 2 IATs

I've just got the stock '88 CRX HF brakes.

I thought the 2010 Si's brakes were super sensitive, but I think it also has to do with me driving the HF that has almost no brakes. Lucky I've got almost no power too.

Guy on hybrids.jp had a B16b with a built top end and vtec killer cam shafts. Would rev the s.o.b. to 10,000rpm. Tracked that car for a while circa '03-'06.

I'd love vtec killer cams...then my license plate would make sense with my valve cover. And I rarely drive my crx on the street...so who gives a **** about idling at 2,000 rpm. haha.

Here's a quick shot from me at Streets of Willow last week:



Pulled some decent times, then it died. Had to get towed home 140 miles.


Turns out I blew my engine.




Starting over totally sucks. Especially when it's my daily driver! lol
