I´m kinda bored so I´m just wondering..

When is it time to rebuild the motor? semi-hard driven motor.. service and valve adjustment every 10k km´s.

 

i am rebuilding every 100k just because i want to . but i don't know. i want the car to rust and fall apart befor the motor does.

 

Interesting philosophy.
106,073 miles now so I guess it's time for a "biggie size" rebuild.
After all, don't want to get caught behind some of those newer cars!

 

you know you want to upgrade to B20
josh

 

rebuild after 5000 miles, or untill your **** stops runnign

 

A sleeved block with Hondata managing the motor is in the works.
I just have to figure out where to put the oil cooler, in conjunction with the A/C, radiator and intercooler (not to mention the PS cooler )

 

Mr. Spoon said the motor has to be rebuild after 60000k

 

There is a guy on this board who had his c5 go after over 200k.

 

that´s what I´m thinking.. c.a. 100k km´s

 

It really depends on how well its running, and what you expext from it at that point.

 

Wow, 60,000K = 6,000,000 miles How did someone get that many miles on a C5 already?

 

In Canada, K is short for Kilometers, so 60,000K is 60,000 Kilometers..

 

I think he was joking, hence the

 

Sorry man.. My bad

 

I plan on rebuild once I hit 150k miles or so. Hopefully CA octane will go back up so I can up the compression while I'm at it.

 

Don't hold your breath for that octane bost, I heard it was dropping to 90.

 

mr spoon say rebuild after every 60,000 km, but he is talking race engines...

and god damn gas prices! hey, lets phase out 92 octane so that the prices will be lower and the people will be happier, then we will hike up the prices even further and then we will phase out 91 octane and give them 90 octane at a cheaper price... all while we line our ****** pockets with even more money cuz the gas is cheaper for us and yet the people still pay a lot more than it is worth!

 

Stupid cali fuggers...if the weather and economy wasn't so nice here I would move in a sec.

 

i'll never move from cali!!!..and the octance is going to kill me and my turbo...and damm cigs went up to!!!! baaastards

 

90 octane
good thing that the highest CR im going with is 11.5

 

goin back to cali to cali
goin back to cali to cali, ha, i dont think so

 

well im boosted, i need some higher octane than 91... car already feel sluggish as is... at least no pinging... when i put in 100 octane... boy howdy! gosh dern car is smoother than a baby's be-hind!

 

I say at least 150.000 km....
Valve adjustment every 10.000 km? Isn't that a bit overkill?
Every 30.000 km should be enough. According to the EuroITR shop manual you should do valve adjustment every 40.000 km....

 

never.
Mabe new rings at 150,000 and 300,000.

George -- Just regular maintenance, some common sense and Mobil 1 @ 4-5K mile oil and filter changes.
Also, stay away from those "money shifts" and don't ride the rev limiter!

The motor has not yet been apart, but I've had installed a Fidanza/ACT clutch @ 85K, along with a high flow pump, FPR and had the injectors cleaned (before driving out to the Expo in Buttonwillow last summer).
Mmmm... 9100 K rpm rev limiter on my Mugen ECU, too!
