And it's gone. It was sold within 5 hours due to the low price but the new owner has given me hope for the new crop of Honda enthusiasts. On to the next project!

 

Nice !! Did mk1s go with the hatch ??

 

24-27 YEARS OLD.

 

I can do math you idiot!

I was just stating the obvious thing that everybody says oh it is 20+ years old.

 

lol

The better reply would be "approaching 30 years old"

 

God now that makes me feel old. I've had my crx half that time.

 

Ditto, I bought my very first civic si when it was new in 1991. Since then I've had a few different years and models.

 

It smells like Bengay and denture cream in here.

 

Just be happy these cars aren't old enough for that "vintage car" smell. After selling the EF I picked up a 71 Datsun 510. You wanna talk about old? You should see the "technology" employed there, lol.

 

I resemble that ******* remark, lol. These cars may be old but not that old

 

Do any of you listen to Reid Lunde's do it for a living podcast?

Couple weeks ago at the Florida EF meet in Daytona Beach. You can find more photos of the 30+ cars that showed up in my build thread linked in signature.





Couple teasers before she comes back out again looking slightly different. :D




Also sold the DA and bought a clean 5spd EK sedan with only 94k miles on it. I added the 50/50 tails, put the Kosies on it and lowered it on coilovers. Also have some OEM Honda window visors to put on it.

 

Because it's Rob.

 

Bought centric blanks - non cryo.
They want $50 Canadian per rotor for cryo..
crazy !

 

That sucks Rob, seems a little pricey. Anybody check out the podcast I linked?

 

YUP
In Canada, everythings pricey !

 

 

Nice! I pick up my car sat, so I should be able to post some pics soon. Not sure if I mentioned, swapped the cam to stop, I had a mystery regrind that was making the car run rich, melted my old cat, lol.

 

Melted the cat, that must be super rich. Did you put a high flow cat on now?

 

You could def say that, lol. The pcv was really bad too, I think that plus the cam was doing wonders. And yes, magnaflow high flow cat. Can't wait to have the car back.

I did the pcv and had to do it twice. I popped the first one in place and couldn't get the hose on quite right, so I tried to just pop it off, snap. Spent a good half hour trying to get the bottom half off.

NEVER is a $2.00 part more expensive, then when you break it and it was the only one in stock locally, lol. Luckily a replacement was in stock not too far away.

Remember kids, gentle with small parts. Someone needs to make those in metal though.

 

Wow, you broke a PCV. That sucks. I had the hardest time swapping a PCV on a 98 Civic lx. They are under the I/M and it is very tight.

 

Hey coop, when you did the front bushings, did they just tap in kinda easy? The old ones needed to be pressed out and was in there good, but the replacement bushings went in with a couple of taps

 

I replaced the inner LCA bushing's with PCI bearings. They did get pressed in. For removal I torched them with map gas and then had them pressed out by a shop.

 

Lol, okay, I did the same based on your recs and did the PCI's in the inner LCA, had them pressed out, but the replacement fit with just a couple of taps, a bit easy, just making sure if I needed to worry about fit

 

I wouldn't worry. Did you use any of the sleeve retainer? I didn't. Once the bolts are in that stuff will not come out.
