Didn't really have one, just wanted to post this for progress. But since you mentioned it... Speedometer is off about 10mph. I'm not familiar enough with its internal circuitry, but can it be adjusted using a potentiometer?
Yeah, it's kind of an old hat now; but nobody around here really messes with Hondas, let alone a J-swap. I'm kind of alone in Honda stuff in my part of the world. 😢
Im sure there are plenty of EG's running around elsewhere with these. I think Mr. Gillespie has an EG with a supercharger. Google streak freak Civic?

Thanks, Hasport. I had emailed the Mad Hatter before about this, but I didn't really get the reply that I had thought I needed at the time. I'll call them Monday, I suppose.
PS: Thanks again for your mounts, for the email correspondence helping me with my installation issues (which were majorly my fault), and for helping me troubleshoot my axle binding problem. I wish I had gone with Hasport axles after dealing with your customer service.

Does anybody know anything about "Techna Fit" braided line? It's the only thing I can find to replace the rubber section of my clutch line other than rubber. Lol
It's supposed to be pvc coated, but I feel kinda iffy about it being it's $25...
Well, apparently Techna-Fit is ok... But idk which would fit. All the rubber part#s for the TL, Accord (3.0 &2.4), and TSX are all the same, but Techna-Fit's numbers have the TL different from the others... I'd like one a tad shorter than what I have as the CV boot nearly rubs it!
The TL has a 9 at the end of their part# while the others have an 11. I wonder if that means the Techna-Fit TL line is around 9" and the others around 11"? 11.31" is what Dorman has them listed as.
Progress rear sway bar kit came in today. Thanks FedEx! I got me some GSR seats yesterday and swapped over the rails from the Civic. Gonna take a break from work and drop off them and my Civic back seats at the upholstery shop.
Oil looks to be leaking from between the pump housing and the block. I need to look at it better to be sure it's not between the top of the spool valve gasket and oil pump housing. I know it's not the vtec solenoid and not my fittings for my oil sender and light. If it's between the pump and block, I'll have to drop the engine to remove the pump for resealing. I almost did that before I put the engine in... But NO, just had to make more work for myself.
