Default Touge Monster - H23A RRC EG6

Hey Y'all!

I've been in the Honda Scene since 2006 and as of a few months ago, I finally retired my 250k mile 1994 Acura Integra LS that I had been using to develop canyon-spec parts and for educating me to tune vehicles both suspension/chassis and engine.

With the help of an OG buddy, we sourced a 1992 Honda Civic VX EG6 Hatchback which I transferred all of my parts into and got to work planning a new Touge Monster for the summer of 2019.

We'll jump in with some pictures, then I'll break down what the heck is done to this thing and what I'm doing here...

Talk about a tight fit. Nice work so far. Also are you meaning torque or Touge like the Japanese word Pass?

Without a shadow of a doubt, Touge, although one could argue I'm attaining both.

It's a H23A VTEC as the title states. Fitted with a Brough Performance H2B Transmission Adapter kit, RRC with Custom Added Intake Plenum Volume by SBSPerformance, and a bunch of crazy mods, including an RLZ Engineering CNC Head.

If you end up needing anything for your car, shoot me a PM and I can connect you to the right parts and people. This has been a passion of mine since I was 16yrs old and I'm able to finally give back to the community where it matters.

Cheers,

-Ryan

You posted your thread in the introductions section. It's not surprising you didn't get a significant amount of response to it or all your updates.

You might have been better off doing a true build thread int he model specific section or even the hybrid section.

Except for I had to... Look at the # of posts I've made here.

That being said, I'm not sure if it's best in EG6, Hybrid, Road Racing, or any other sub-forum. I'll do a proper build log for y'all soon, possibly this evening.

Does the H series always fit so tightly into the EG?

This looks great. Love the Rx7 oil cooler. How are the oil temps. The OEM rx7 thermostat doesnt open too soon ? I assume to took out the OEM waster oil heater/cooler.

Pictures of oil cooler setup ? like it lots.

Notice the full-size Koyo Radiator in there? We left room for a shorter, full length AC condenser... No corners cut on this one.

This is a V5 Brough Performance H2B Swap Kit if anyone was wondering. I'll start that build thread tonight.
