Pics of the DONE B18C5 Silver CX - Dial-Up BEWARE!
HAHAHA!!!
I found an old pic of the CAR!!!
Now here's what it looks like:
Nevermind that 2001 BlackBird Edition 381hp Trans Am in the background. (Yes we raced - get to that later
)
Infamous Rotas - notice the brakes?
Rear Discs:
Better pic of Rotas and Rear Discs:
Mirrors - Inspected by #5?
Integra RS Master Cylinder filled with blue Smurf Jizz/ATE Super Blue:
In case You're Wondering:
What's the Inside Look Like?
What's BLOCKED?
Lastly:
Sorry for all the pics, but after 7 months of hard work from myself and all of my friends and co-workers, I can't help but post a few pics.
I would like to give a HUGE thanks to all of those people involved in the teardown, build-up, and all mechanical crap done on this car. Even though few or none of these people can read this, I still feel like it's important to thank others who helped me out on this big project.
So what about the car?
The jury is still out on hard cornering because of the Skunk2 front upper arms
How's the acceleration?
Ask the guy who drives that 380hp BlackBird on a few of those pics
I'm pleased as hell with how the car gets down the road. The first gear is so damn quick to hit VTEC - it's unbelievable! I still don't even "rip shift" because the gearing is so tight with the ATS 4.929 FD that I can "granny shift" and still stay WELL within VTEC.
I can list all the mods if need be for any of you who might wonder about all the stuff on the car.
The car definately feels more crazy than my old 1992 Si hatchback that this swap used to be in. I had the ATS in it too, and there's NO way in hell that the Si pulled like this. People who've ridden/driven both agree that it's night and day differences between the 2 cars.
If anybody has any Q's about certain parts on the car, feel free to ask them. After I get back to work tomorrow I can even list part numbers and various prices for any gear you may see and have Q's about.
Thanks for viewing, and any Q's will be answered ASAP y0!
Lates!

Now are you going to be like most people who finish working on a project car and just sell it? I don't know why people do that

This car will NEVER be sold - EVER!!!
The only reason I ever sold my old Si was because my real dream car was a 1992 CX in Silver with the same motor - voila!
I would not have wasted my time, money, friends' time, etc. just to sell the damn thing anyways.
Besides, my asking price would be WAY steep

That camera SUCKS!!!
The pics looked tons better on the LCD screen, but they came out much darker on the PC screen.
Plans call for first and foremost a good header! I know that stock cast iron piece is heavy and not as good in terms of whp when compared to a good aftermarket header.
No boost for me - I chose all-motor (or stock motor
) long ago and committed even further by getting the ATS final drive. Boost + 4.929 FD = nothing but wheelspin.

car looks good, but why didn't you just shave the antenna? looks cleaner anyways.
plus shave side modlings = sleeker look.
just my view.
also how come you didn't paint the mirrors?
as for the interior did you put a clear coat on the interior paint?
what kinda body work did you have done to the car......

nice man! hows that final drive on highway? also a little tip~ i have ingalls camber kit in front and i had the same problem with it toping out and hitting suspension tower and leaving "outies" dents, i think skunk kit is same as in there are 4 bolts that are used to adjust cameber, well put the nut side down for more clearence and leave bolt head on top! i got about 3/4 " more travel which is plenty! good luck and nice car! peace, eric

How did you get all the sound deadening out? Or does it look shitty if you just paint over it?
