Figured Id get a post started. Just ordered my f20b from H-motors today, said it would be a little over a week till I get it. I will be getting most of my b-series stuff from a friend. I still have quite a few parts left to order

-Manual Tensioner
-New timing belt, water pump and oil pump
-BS Eliminator kit
-Header
-Exhaust
-Pay buddy for his stuff (Starter, Axles, Trans, Mounts, Linkage, Clutch, Flywheel)
-Adapter Plate (Probably goin with QSD)
-Find a basemap for my f20b for my AEM EMS
-Garage to tear into my hatch
-Personal time (Working 60+ hours a week)

I plan on asking you guys a lot of questions but at the same time trying to make it a learing experience for myself. Ill be adding more and as always tons of pics as they come along.

haha.. i agree.

 

hey why do u need a manual tensioner let me know thanks

 

The auto uses hydraulic pressure to tension the belt. I know the earlier ones had problems and from what I have read they have fixed that problem but I would still rather go with a manual tensioner

 

So updates for today.

Ordered f20b long block, be here June 6-7
Ordered Kazienspeed BS eliminator kit

Need more funds and info and ill be ordering my plate, header and exhaust by the end of the week

 

hey whats the website to order a eliminator kit please post it up if u can or let me know where u got it from thanks

hey thanks man

 

Couple questions for the h2b gurus and the f20b guys

Since I have to zip down my mains im just gonna roll in new rod and main bearings. I need h22a4 mains and any b series rods correct?

Also for the majority, a h22 water pump, timing belt, and gasket kit would contans parts i could use such as timing belt water pump valve cover gasket, cam seals, oil pan gasket, etc. I found a good package deal on ebay for one.

 

Uptdate today:

Orderd AEM Wideband UEGO
Ordred JDM audio console to mount gauge to

I konw pics will make this topic much better, trust me Ill take some for you fellas as soon as I get stuff comin in

 

Well my "weekend" is over so now back to work. All the money is gone out of my bank account so now I wait for parts. My goal is to have the engine in the car by 6/11 and maybe just run stock header on a h22 basemap to get it back from my shop. Then when my exhaust comes in ill get it tuned. Pics as soon as my stuff starts coming in. This should be a good week :-)

 

Well update for today is I got my f20b, very clean...so thanks to H-Motors for that. Also got my kiezenspeed kit and I am working days rather than nights tomorrow so I should have my balance shafts gone and maybe a manual tensioner on by thursday. Hopefully swap in car by this weekend just waiting on my exhaust and altenator bracket

 

subscribing

 

Well I guess I should update since I have fans now lol

Ordering gaskets today to get my longblock back together and my manual tensioner on. Put a new water pump on, balance shaft kit is all put together on the engine. Altenator bracket will be here tomorrow and I need to call John at hytech and check on my exhaust

edit: Ill get some pics up so this thread isnt completly worthless

 

Alright here ya go. Some pics and more updates.

Ordered PWJDM CF Intake
Ordered all gaskets I need (hopefully)
Ordered manual tensioner stuff
Found out pan is steel...so hondabond it is.
Oh and I did get the manual f20b thanks to some ID tips from Bense

Now for some pics

 

looks good man!!

 

I really wish I would have had my camera when I did my balance shaft kit...Would have been a good addition

 

Cool man goodluck on everything.

-Brax

 

Got my altenator bracket in today. Adapter plate will be here thursday. Also got a manual steering rack for my car so I dont have to be ghetto and loop my lines. Coming along pretty well I'd say. After thursday all Ill be waiting on is my gaskets to get my block back together and my exhaust which will be done by the end of the month

 

you might want to look into using a integra rack in your civic, it's PS but it has a much tighter ratio

 

already paid for the civic rack. 50 bucks...figured that wasnt too bad. Maybe when I paint here in awhile Ill switch to the integra. Good info tho bense

 

So adapter plate in, upgraded shipping on parts to saturday so ill have my longblock done this weekend and hopefully transmission on. Still taking advice on what to do about my crank snout. I think I might order that washer Bense found since I did get that 1/2" over alt. bracket

 

some eye candy for ya
