errrrr ls vtec??
yeah agreed clean that biznatch up

 

Looks like "Sam" left his shirt under the hood of your car...Better call him back.

 

i noticed something, your missing 1 bolt on your throttle cable bracket.

 

LS-VTEC........YUMMY ! ! !

 

how do you like lsvtec?

 

Good job, looks very good

 

ok, i know, the engine bay needs a little attention......

"Sam" is me, i used my work shirt to hold the power steering fluid in, i was going to put it back in, but decided it didn't matter, so now all i have to do is pull the lines...... fun fun

the missing throttle cable bolt is because the LS bracket holes didn't mount up to the Si intake manifold, but i am getting an ITR manifold, so maybe those will match up, if not i guess i will have to buy one

the engine alone is very very strong. with the Si pistons it yields approx 11.3:1 compression, probably a little more because the head has been resurfaced, i haven't had VTEC engage yet, because my ECU that i had wouldn't cooperate with the engine (chipped P28), so i'm rockin the the LS ECU for now, my TPS sensor was broken too, so i had to borrow a TB of an ITR swap that's sitting in my shop, i think i'll have to buy one for myself, it's GREAT

the E30 in the back ground is MINE, i love that car, i never drive it anymore, but can't bring myself to get rid of it, so it just sits most of the time, it needs some body work, but other than that it's excellent

ARP rod bolts
NEW 99-00 Si pistons

ECU has yet to be determined, the one i had didn't work properly, currently rockin the LS ecu kind of defeats the purpose huh

 

good job

 

Why'd you get new LS rods...and how much did they cost?

 

all the new parts i bought from honda b/c i get wholesale, can't remember individual prices, it was like 6 or 700 for all parts

 

 

Dude, looks like someone keyed it on the left side, then I'm guessing they spun it and hit a bridge w/ the front end
You made my old car look pretty good, i knew you'd use that blue hosing you've slaved like a bitch on that and you deserve a few s for it, i think i deserve a few too, i told you to torch that head bolt, LMAO.We'll run as soon as i get my next car, i think 1 BAR is fair?

 

LoL, here's the first pic i ever took of that car.
then this

then....

then it's all yours.

 

 

nice
