yea because red valve covers add 20whp.


congrats on the swap. But dear lord that thing doesnt look like a car out of miami.
Why is the hood black underneath?
Maybe cause the pictures were taken at night.

Nah.. looks like there was a fire in there or something, cause there's black all over the right side of the bay as well. Who knows.

Congrats on the swap! How are you liking it so far?

 

Yeah that car is dirty as hell, but good looking swap and at the end of the day function over fashion or atleast until you get funds to fix the outside.

 

Cool. Keep it NA.

 

Cost? Simple green that engine bay.

 

Looks slow .

 

sorry to say this man..but im sure the motor runs good..but the rest of the car looks a mess. before doing the swap you should've tried to clean up (what looks like) the burns on the inside of the hood and engine bay. i really hope you have plans to make that car look better.

good luck

 

I hope you have receipts for those S2000 seats

 

OMG WOW a real B16 in a hatch!!!

i have NEVER SEEN THAT DONE BEFORE!!!!!

oh, and you didn't even do it yourself!!!! i'm so impressed??

wtf.

 

nice

 

They did a nice job putting those Vtec solenoid wires in a loom... Can't imagine what the rest of the harness looks like.

You like driving slow cars, don't you?

 

So Far ..... nothing but hassles to be honest .......

I drove to the gas station right next to the shop that did the swap turned the car off and went put gas and when i went to crank it, it didnt turn over ........ i felt like i feel right now but ill explain that situation in a minute. Well we push it over to the shop and comes to the comclusion that the alarm is rigged with some sort of kill switch to keep it from starting. so we play with the alarm and the bitch cranks. i drive everything is working fine car runs great. Then all of a sudden all my gauges DIED everything tach,speedo, gas ,temp ...... i was Like WTF

I go this morning to the shop have my alarm taken off and everything wired to factory the car cranks as soon as the system is removed and werent having a problem i take it back to the mechanic and he tells me the fuse for the fuse for my guages is missing which is obviously impossible if it was working and then stopped ..... well he slaps the 20 amp fuse in the car and the gauges get right back to work ...... i drive to work and go out to break now the car is completely DEAD like i had a dead battery or something ????? nothing ligths up i wasnt able to push start it ..... but then again that might be because it was only be pushing .... im going to give that a try later but if i cant even push start the bitch what do you guys think could be going on ..... other than major electrical problems
