hey guys just wanted to post some pics of my new project!

the only thing i am missing is top bumper peice. the part that goes between the headlights and the hood. do i need a crx one or can i use a sedan or coupe? a friend checked out the junkyard for me and only found one from a hatchback!

there is a engine hoist in the back yard at my work and my boss said i can use it but i just need to get a truck to get it. then i will get the engine out of the backseat!!

also i traded a scooter for it!!!

 

Cool new project Si, good luck!

 

thank you

 

SCORE! you suck lol. Nose has to be from a CRX. Civic noses are steel and shaped differently. If I were you I'd get a new one & reinforce it.

 

hey thanks for the info just what i needed to hear

 

got the engine hoist in the garage tonight. and took some mor pics

 

nice GL!

 

thanks!

 

Snaps!
Look great!

 

Sweet car. I love your license plates :p

 

hopefuly i can get crackn on it this weekend! now that i have a garage i dont have to worry about the rain

 

my license plates love u!!!

 

nice project, i always wanted to put a 2.0 pelude engine in one back in the day.

 

hey every body. this project has been on the back burner for a long time but i finaly got her goin

got the motor in the car and now im having a problem with the idle. i removed the ac and there is a vacum line that in the book needs to be plugd so i pluged it but the car will still not idle corectly. at first it would run at 2000 but now the rpm is like 3000. any ideas would be appreciated. thanks ht

i will get some pics up soon

 

try adjusting the idle air control valve on the intake manifold. if you remove the two phillips head screws you can remove the cover and then use a flat blade to tighten it down. tighten it all the way down.

 

It's called a FIT-V, but that's the first thing I'd check, too.

 

hey thanks for ur guys help. it was the fit-v i ended up replacing it for another one. the one i had was broke on the inside.

 

i have another question.

i got the car running and it ran very well for 3 days. got the car smoged and every thing
i was being easy on it because the motor is new and all of a sudden i felt like it had no top end. the car will stop pulling around 2500 rpm. would any one know what might be up with that or were i should start lookin?

 

Try checking your cam timing.

 

the timing is good when i check it to the crank pulley. i think thats the same as the cam timing?

also i got a few pic i will share

 

i still need turn signals and that header pannel

 

she looks pretty good...keep it up man

 

hey i figured out what the prob was the cat was cloged. so i un cloged it with a peice of rebar lol!

 

Looks good!
Glad to see you got it back from your uncle's.

 

cool project, its coming together
