YEAH THOSE ARE THE PLUGS I'M USING. THEY HELP ALOT.



COULD YOU PASS SOME INFO ON HOW YOU WENT ABOUT DOING THE WELD?
i HAVE BEEN PONDERING MYSELF HOW TO FIX MINE. i WAS GOING TO CUT A SQAURE OUT WHERE THE HOLE IS, THEN TIG WELD THE NUT ON THE BACK THEN WELD THE SQAURE BACK IN PLACE ON THE PILLAR.
BUT IT LOOKS LIKE YOU WENT ABOUT IT A DIFFERENT WAY

 

Man I wish I knew how to do body work. Did you guys go to school for that or just applied at a body shop? I need to get a better job. Any whoo, a pic of my rex with different rims.

 

the way you described i think is the easiest way to go...

Bodywork isnt hard man. Really it doesnt matter how much schooling you have you learn the most by just getting your hands in there and do work.

 

really!? i dont understand why mine are so tight?

 

the seatbelt bolts cross with a 7/16ths 20tpi standard nut. i got two of these and drilled the hole in b pillar out to fit the nut. and i miged it in there while my dad held a wet rag on the paint out side.

 

Hey im going to get a steering wheel for xmas, whats the best hub setup? I dont think i need a quick release.

 

Depending if your are going to use a quick release or not. I have nrg on my del sol and crx and they feel great. No problems whatsoever. Got them from JLB motorsports.

 

I think you should get a quick release... What kinda wheel you getting?

 

How about skipping the part where you cut a square out of the b pillar. Make a separate square out of maybe 1/8" to 1/16" thick material, drill a hole in the center, place the nut over the hole, and weld nut. Drill a hole in the b pillar large enough for the nut to sit recessed, then weld around the perimeter of the square. Get it?

You now have a lap joint versus a butt joint. For some, its easier to weld.

 

Mugen racing III, idk i hear alot of bad things about the QR. Hows the momo hub?

 

i thought u left here...pm me here or on thNat otWher boPard...

 

I think momo is high quality stuff. I love there wheels.

 

i have a momo monte carlo steering wheel and a momo hub. love them, top quality!!!!!

 

I need a new one but for the most part the setup works fine.
You can actually buy those plugs from Kragen. I have a extra set if u need.



is what you were saying what this guy did??

VVV
I'll have to give that a try.

QR work fine. I have had mine for atleast 3 years with no problems at all.
MOMO hub is good too. If you live in a thieft driven city then go with a HKB or NrG short hub. But I don't know if they make NrG shirt hubs for out year civic.

 

Looks very similar, but i hadnt even looked at that link until now, lol.

 

Yeah, I don't think you saw that thread ahead of time, but that was the thread that we used when we went up to Wes's to do the seat belt conversion to my CRX a while back.

 

Yeah, the make short hubs for EFs. Ive also had mine for round 2 1/2 years. Works great.

 

I WAS PLAYING WITH MY CAMERA...

smoked tailights

 

THE homie EUGENE from PROSTREETIMPORT with his 306whp 10.9sec 136mph KRX SOrry for the ugly pics but everyone should get the idea...







Showing some love after a win EUGENE>jerryBUILT @ BAKERSfield...



It's all good...

 

i need some help from you guys!

heres my problem :

my crx wont hold a charge.

-good alternator
-3 GOOD grounds in engine bay( engine harness to thermo housing, head to headlights and frame to starter)
-all grounds to chassis harness in cabin connected
-checked fuses and theyre all good
-main power wire from alt to fuse box is 2 wires put together using a butt connector

-its an h2b swap. 92-95 civic obd1 alternator. usdm
-converted to right hand drive using obd0 crx SiR ecu harness, engine harness, and usdm crx rear harness spliced in.also running the jdm fuseboxes. currently running obd1 with a boomslang jumper. it runs great! but throwing code 20


im stumped! i need to have this car running GOOD by tomorow!

one thing i found interesting is the alternator plug. heres a pic:




this might be stupid, but is there a difference between the jdm alternators and usdm alternators? ive never seen a plug like this

 

thats basically what i did. the nuts i used had a flange on them. and i just drilled the panel out till the hex part sat in the hole and welded the flange to the car.

 

Woah. This thread still exists? I'm probably picking up an additional crx this week. It has a good motor in it. My crx doesn't
