Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
Good lookin' out. Hopefully, since this truck has been in TX since new it won't be much of an issue.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
I was on the phone with Brian (PCI owner) 2 weeks ago and he said the air dam was nearly complete for the splitter set-up. But the splitter will be fiberglass reinforced plywood. I'm such a fan of alumilite now that all I'd need out of that kit is the air dam. We'll see when it comes out. I know I really want the vented hood. The difference in engine bay temps is crazy when you have a little vent for heat to escape.
My buddy works for a Toyota dealer and Ive seen those frame replacements going down... crazy.. were in the north east so its a common problem.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
You can get both those mounts as aftermarket replacements or from the dealer for 90-93 Integra. Local auto parts store can get them.

Yea I no I can get them from a dealer but they want 170 for just the rear bracket and idk how much for the driver side. But you mean like autozone or advanced should sell them

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
Yeah. I got a quote from them for the same brackets for the B swap in my EF. I think it was like $60 for the rear and $50 for the drivers side mount.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
Yes, no...wish I could
Person selling didnt want anything spread out, that picture was taken by a hidden camera
To give you a idea, some things I spotted
Bumpers, Doors, trunks, windows, fenders, fender linning, headlights, tailights, tons of seats, carpet, engines "B16's/LS/D16/D15", 2 race cars, crx cut in half in basement, wheels "oem", headers, custom made exhaust, fiber glass hoods, lexan windows, aftermarket springs, slicks, some race wheels. Few cars in the back yard
Its ALOT, my friends are digging into it pretty good though, wish it was hatch stuff

Boo yeaaahhhh!!! USDM FTW! Sell JDM stuff, buy cage, tires, brakes, useful-stuff! Gas for CRXTOWR...
I know, I have heard rumors for a while now.. guess the PCI stuff is the only stuff worth holding your breath on, maybe that offer they have means they are serious this time. I hope so.. I love people who still support and make new stuff for our 20 year old monsters.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
I called a couple different dealerships yesterday and gave them my VIN# and both said mine wasn't subject to that frame recall. Good news, although I'd be happy to let Toyota pay me 1 1/2 times the worth of the truck to buy it back due to a rusty frame.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
Thanks anyway CBE.
Okay, I'm trying to figure if my tranny really needs a rebuild or not. My driver side seal was leaking and will be replaced this weekend, however there is a bit of a whine in 3rd gear and at idle I have a faint 'chatter' I'll call it, that goes away when I press the clutch in.
Is that the input shaft bearing or the pilot bearing going out?
So far Synchrotech is the least expensive option - about $600 for ready to go rebuild, I pick up, install and drop off my old core. Anyone have experience with them?
