Default Eg6 SI Build



After a long search for a completely stock si, i have found one that's in decent shape.
The cruise works as well as the p/s. The only problem was the a/c compressor kept causing the belt to squeal, so I replaced it with a aftermarket one. Honda no longer makes these compressors. Before I recovered the system the schrader valve was leaking so I tried to pull it out, literally it's stripped insides so I picked up a new discharge like at pick and pull. Just have to wait, to install it and re-charge it. I have lots of plans for this car.

I love me a good EG Si! Congratulations - she looks pretty good!

What year? How many miles?

I assume you checked belt tension before replacing compressor... Did the old compressor turn over smoothly? Was yours a Denso? Replace with Sanden?

93'
gauge reads 166k it was swapped from the last owner he told me it stopped working at 250k more miles on the body, but it doesn't really matter to me, I'm keeping this one forever.
The clutch had a lot of play, I was gonna do a clutch and coil but it was cheaper to just do a compressor, I can't remember what my parts guy told me it was, rebuilt for sure though

Car has been painted it’s original color


Day I got it back from body shop. I didn’t paint the hood due to the fact That I’m putting a CF hood on

I bought new front fenders and bumpers before handing it over to the body shop
