I'll check the order again, I hope that's it.

Damn, I hope that's not the case, only 2 guys who have same engine/year, neither avail, let's hope that's not the case, lol.

I borrowed a spark tester and a sparkplug socket, just in case. I also ordered a set of OEM plug wires just because, lol.

WHOO HOO!!!! I got it! HE LIVES!!!!! I used a jump start pack, and had my daughter crank while I wiggled the dizzy to get it close. The I cranked it on fuel clear mode (pedal all the way down), while she held the start pack.

Vroom vroom, lol. Then I set off the carbon monoxide detectors in the garage...lol. I still need to set final timing, was having a hard time seeing the marks.

LOL, love this response. I wouldnt mind, but I'd only want to do a type r motor, so it'll have to wait.

But my motor is nice and fresh, so I'll keep the D16A6 for now

THIS. I want/need to find a JRSC. They are so damn hard to find now.

Many years back, I had a chance to either pick up a brand new in the box JRSC for a D16 or a slightly used JRSC for a B16, and I picked the B16 one, cause that was in my project at the time.

I regret not picking up the D16 one and just holding onto it.

That's fine. I do not currently have the need for the removal of opponents doors by large gusts of air. I might have more concern that such a fragile transport be allowed on the public roadways...lol

PS - anyone know where Adrian's been? Haven't seen him in here for quite a while...

I know Adrian has been doing a lot of the track stuff but not sure otherwise.

A lot of the EF guys I know pretty much have put their projects on the side burner for other stuff.

Dood, what's with the hostility? I was messing around - basically just meant I dont really have a need for a high HP swap right now, I'm not trying to 'blow anyone's door's off'.

My daughter was watching Teen Titans and the response I put was something Starfire would say...

Have you thought about using the 89 Style? They are thinner like JDM versions.

Call AFH parts and ask them if they are available.

When the Hell did EF-Honda.com swap over gridlife.co ?

I was only on the site 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Now it was being infested with spam at that time.

All the smaller EF forums are being raped by spam and dying off.

Charlie! - congrats man, any pics of the ride at the show? And of the award, i know you want to share...lol.

RBW - Whoa, had no idea on EF-Honda, WTF? did they kill off the archives too?

jsin - yup, find them when not needed, cant find them when they are...IF you have your old ones you may be able to recondition them - use a mr clean magic eraser to clean off the years of crap off of them - it really works! Mine were faded and cracking on one side. The eraser can bring em back from faded. If they're cracking you may be able to refinish with plastidip - it'll fill the cracks. Do many light layers, let it dry, it'll hold for a long time - you can do the window trim as well like that.

I did my audi chrome grill trim with it many years ago before it got popular, blacked em out and it looked OEM, never faded, cracked, peeled or any issues.

anyone have a clean clear pic of the stock d16a6 intake? I'm specifically looking for a detail shot of the tube between the intake and valve cover.

I think I have one for a 92 D16z6 instead. Is it a double tube? coolant and air?

Thanks!

RS I'll try and snap a picture tonight if I get time. Most of the parts and pieces are sitting in the back yard and trunk of my hatch.
