Yeah, looking forward to updates.
mesaexport.com has repro center tail light stickers; I've ordered several times from them and they're very good.

Getting the engine bay ready for primer. Welded up some un needed small holes. Will reveal color in a later post. Its different than the car but also one of my favourite honda colors.
Couple coats of primer. Times to let it sit and sand her down and put some lightweight putty on it.
All masked up.

You can flip the booster 180° and the vacuum nipple will be out of the way, just rotate the corresponding nipple on the I/M to match. Cheap way to tuck it.

Thanks for the kind words! I got the triangle piece from Toronto honda parts, it's an online store very good to deal with. But they only have the passenger side as the driver side has been discontinued from honda

Rywire tucked harness. As cool as the milspec quick disconnect is. I want to drive this car this summer, and the canadian dollar sucks when you have to order almost everything from murica. so im not going for the full milspec this year.
Hush peformance cable to hydro installed with the wilwood mc
Area i had to cut out. Could have cut less but its already done
Another area that had to be cut out.

I also picked up this gem locally. Chipped p06 but wire for vtec. Cross referenced the resistors and such with xenocron (i think thats it). Seems to have everything in the right place and was running a mini me swap before i bought it.

Made some custom shift ***** out of the ruined b16 with my bro.
We will see how they work. Fell like a regular weighted ****. Going to test one on the teg tomorrow.
Also got this header a while ago but forgot to post pics. Its a rmf style good quality work.

So I have been off for a couple weeks due to Fort mac fires. Have a big update coming tomorrow morning. Just working on finishing my wire tuck for the headlight wiring and corner light and such.

Closer and closer each day.
Amber lights in
Uploaded a jdm b16a tune on the hondata and she starts up amazing. Needs a t-stat tho. Would still like to get it properly tuned as i dont know how reliable the basemap tunes are.
Lining everthing up is a pain in the a$$
Also sold my axis og san rims to my bro. They fit way better on his dc. Picked up these 949 racing 6UL wheels in 15x8 +36 nickel finish
Thanks for viewing and sorry for late pics. I'm back working now so there should be updates every couple weeks
