thanks man! i just need to run this old motor to reach the local paint/body shop then to the nearby traffic department office.

am building a mild B16 motor on the side and drop it in as soon as the paint work's done

few more parts i've been collecting. complete B16A engine overhaul parts. all OEM stuff except my ebay special 0.5mm OS Nippon pistons



couple more for it's power plant upgrade...



my second set of engine building precision tools. got tired traveling with them back and forth in the other side of the globe so i bought another set instead. magnetic dial indicator stand, Belben's BVTEC cam degreeing kit, rod bolt stretch gauge, micro calipers, digital bore gauge, etc.



thanks! am trying Sir!

another area which am so excited to work on is it's entire electrical system.

i'll be using some OEM spec materials or better and reconstruct it's entire outdated electrical layout as well as materials.

a quick view on my cramped workspace as well as things to use.

rolls of oem spec color coded wires. had to ship them from UK and freight fees do suck as usual.



high temp and oil/acid/petrol resistant pvc sleeves.



enough supply of Sumitomo male/female terminals and seals to replace them old ones.



a sample engine harness for one of my customer's cars. am still using the o'l fashion flexible convoluted tubing and wrap them with 3M's 33+ high temp electrical tape. my ef has this same materials and have remained the same for the last 5+ years. cost effective enough so i'll continue to use them unless someone wants to spend more for those mil-spec materials.

Mr. CRXFi

Reason you rebuilt your axles was due to limited supplies or something?

Bump for you.

ef92b

hi James, so nice to hear from you. replied back your PM

yes sir. spare parts at my place for such old cars are so scars now a days. my entry level hasport axles and full race trac bar should arrive next week hopefully. shipping costs owns me

thanks guys! me too, can't wait LOL

some recent updates as it sits now....





blocked couple of holes here in there. brake and wire tuck?



I'm hoping and praying i can grab one of those used glass tops. importing stuff's such a PITA over my place if the deal pushes through, i might hold this thing for a while until the entire roof cut arrives. wish me luck!

ef92b

while waiting for the car's paint job completion, i've been busy scouting for some more parts.

i finally found some pieces i've been craving for so long.

NSX NA1 front brake calipers got to order them repair kits soon and a little prep work would freshen them up.



here's what the caliper repair kit contains along with the Acura part no. required. two sets needed to cover both front wheels.



am still lucky to get a hold of one of these 92-93 YS1 cable tranny's as well. this came in today and i should be swapping in some hydro/lsd internals along with the LS 5th gear for better highway cruising rpms.

i still prefer retaining the OEM cable clutch setup and no to those hydro clutch pedal conversions.

ef92b

bump but still got a long way to go...

ef92b

thanks Cris!

I'm trying.

hush22

Heres Your update. The REX is coming out very nice!

ef92b

that's a very nice kit Robert!

i saw your demo thread and thanks for sharing

into the paint boot today! :clap:



~2 hours power wash and dry



master painter in action!!!







excuse the rear cross member and suspension parts for now. they'll be pulled out once the under coating process starts.

ef92b

the parts finally arrived.

they look awesome and mint in person. thank you so much for taking your time packing them safely.

here's some few pics i took while in rush off to my job yesterday morning. i'll take the rest of them once installed.









it would be a shame installing your wheel with my old and battered dash so i bought her a minty mint dash board as well.

hush22

Now Im getting realy excited to see it put back together

ef92b

me too

however, i still have a lot of things ahead of me. engine rebuild and install, electrical stuff, brakes and suspension, etc.

a/c system, body and paint work are the only things i can't handle as far as working on cars.

here's more updates today.





























some few more minor cosmetic corrections...



my hero, Mr. Danny the paint guy



there's four more paint coatings to go. this is just the base coat and no full and clear coats done yet so far.

i hope you enjoy and thank you for viewing.

good day everyone

antreasda7

cool job bro gr8 painter

ef92b

thanks!

pulled out the front and rear suspension parts.



prepping the under chassis area using a steel wire brush into a drill machine and a scraping tool to clean all bottom areas.



power washed the wheel wells all over. using a commercially available nylon brush and a mix of 50/50 water/dish washing soap to clean. my hands and fingers hurt





should dry overnight and under coating should follow next.

thanks for viewing.

ef92b
