QUESTION ONE:

Recently I've seen some posts of "gunky" engines sold to people. To my untrained eye, mine looks pristine. Understand that I'm not going to tear the whole engine down, especially since it looks fine up top (to me).

QUESTION TWO:

See that black box in the lower right to the left of the thermostat housing? Is that the stock PCV catchcan? Does something from the Z6 plug into this (SIRII)? Isn't she nice and clean?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

QUESTION THREE:

This came with the engine, junk it? Isn't the one I have in the car adequate?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

QUESTION FOUR:

This sure doesn't look stock, the ECU has a new chip with a wire hanging out, the chip says "Rivertec". So the settings won't be stock? Can I re-use the Z6 ECU as it?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

QUESTION FIVE:

This guy looks nubbed off, what do I call it? Some kind of torque mount? Needs replacing I take it. What would a Honda dealer call it?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

QUESTION SIX:

This is coming from the power steering pump (I want to keep it for now). Is there an equivalent to the crimped fitting in my harness already? Plug and play?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

QUESTION SEVEN:

You can't really tell in the pics but on one of the axles the boot seems a little bound up on the inside, total loss?

QUESTION EIGHT:

WTF?

Thanks!

When in doubt replace them....They arent that expensive and if you are trying to do it right do it right the first time...thats what i've learned in my experience.

Hope some of that helped

 

dude.. do you have your motor in the closet?? lolol

Keep the fuses...they cost a grip if you ever blow one...I'd try to sell the fuse box first, then strip the fuses out of it, the chunk the box

 

#5

that is a torque mount. Looks like the one on your transmission. I am somewhat sure you can reuse the one from your current engine (as long as the current transmission is a manual)

 

The axles look a little beat up. Might try some rebuilts from a local parts store. Most rebuilds have a lifetime warranty, and nows a good time to replace both.

 

#8

............An engine sling?

hahahahahhahah

 

Yep, she's in my closet!

I have a manual currently so I'll crawl under and check the tranny torque mount.

Looks like someone chipped it...get a better pic of the guts and I can tell if its a decent job or crap. Looks like a p28. Check the sticker on the side, too.

 

the ecu looked chipped with wire leading to maybe look like an on off switch=flip back a forth stock and chipped prog. the extra brd could be knock brd. need a close up on the ecu id.

 

The ECU is a P30.

My car currently has a D16Z6 in it, is the ECU with it compatible with the SIRII? Plug and play?

 

Here's all the pics of my ECU.

Will I need to get a new ECU? I want the thing to just run on a stock map, God only knows what the prior person programmed.

 

it should plug and play obd1, with conversion harness for obd2. p30 = b16 dohc. does the wire connected to j1?

Could've changed the oil more frequently

QUESTION TWO:

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

Again oil changes. And yes thats what the pcv connects to, the oil catches and is put back into the block.

QUESTION THREE:

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

The one in your car is fine

QUESTION FOUR:

This sure doesn't look stock, the ECU has a new chip with a wire hanging out, the chip says "Rivertec". So the settings won't be stock? Can I re-use the Z6 ECU as it?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

No fu!@ing clue, not a computer guy

QUESTION FIVE:

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

Supplementary trans mount, passenger side supplementary mount

QUESTION SIX:

This is coming from the power steering pump (I want to keep it for now). Is there an equivalent to the crimped fitting in my harness already? Plug and play?

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

Dont know, my past swaps I never put power steering back in

QUESTION SEVEN:

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....D.jpg

You wont know until you put them in, if you have some extra cash go get some refurbs if not put them in and see, it takes like 10 minutes to change axles

QUESTION EIGHT:

WTF?
