Not today but a few days ago I changed my MTF with Honda MT fluid and installed new OEM spark plug wires clips. Today I modified my JDM Sport UCAs to fit Blox competition upper ball joints and I cut out the old rubber bushings in prep for polyurethane bushings up front.

Pulled the RTA's off of my 92 cx, prepping for rear disc swap.
E-brake lines are the last things holding me in.

I nearly killed my MAP tank while heating the stupid Toe bolts up to loosen them up as well

Yesterday...

Replaced my 40 micron summit inline filter with a 10 micron from Earls. Also got rid of the banjo bolt on top of the tank in favor of a m12x1.25 to -6an 90º fitting per Aeromotive's advice.

Then I pulled the injectors and their adapters and gave em a good cleaning.

Today...

I hunt down the coolant leak that sprung up on my way home and maybe install my Stack coolant gauge.

Came to the conclusion at one point of my 94 civics existence it was stolen and stripped. Over the past few weeks I've owned it things were adding up towards my conclusion. Car is a 94 manual according to the vin #. Title is clear and not salvaged but here is what makes me think it was stripped at one point. It has a gsr swap with a gsr transmission, engine wire harness is from a auto civic, full gsr aftermarket exhaust, OBD1 P72 ecu, manual dash wire harness, auto civic cluster, gsr front seats, gsr front brakes, braided stainless steel brake lines, stock civic drum brakes(why go threw all the swapping of intergra stuff and not do the intergra rear disks), gsr suspension front and rear, stereo wires all cut(could have been previous owners install) oem civic steering wheel replaced and wires cut off flush at the wheel, power mirrors replaced with non power mirrors , ignition key doesn't match door,trunk key and lastly I found glass under the carpet when I was cleaning it out.

Well I guess its not a bad thing because at least they replaced all the civic stuff with good stuff.

FINALLY got my wheels on the car...bought 16x8 +20 Grid-V's, the company sent me 3 Grid-V's and 1 Grid Offroad, lol. So had to wait for the last wheel to come in, then take them to the powder coater for a coat of Candy Purple, then getting the tires mounted and road force balanced, then rolling the fenders and fine-tuning the fitment and ride height, then getting a Firestone Lifetime Alignment (so worth it). I give you...the next stage in my EJ6's life! Still lots of things to replace and complete, but its getting there, slowly but surely.







Dat ***!

SON OF A BITCH. Lol it's dark and raining out, but as soon as I read that and looked at the picture I had to go double check...and by god if those idiots didn't mount the thing backwards. The other 3 are good. I'm headed back there in the morning. *shakes fist*

Good eye, thanks jbpnoman!

rofl yeah man.

Started working on my replacement fenders and bumper today.

Started off with surface rust all over them, looked like this.

Used a random orbital sander and some 100 grit, got it down to bare metal.

And to keep them protected from rust until a real paint job, Plastidip! One can = one fender, for anyone curious. No, it isn't dry in that picture. Dry finish came out as an even, matte black. Basically, a little bit shinier than primer, and water-tight, unlike primer, which is porous.

Got both fenders done today, hopefully doing the bumper tomorrow and bolting it all up. The hood will just be a bonus if it happens this weekend.
