Default Just bought my first Honda.

Well I decided it was time i wanted vtec. And with my roomate owning a 500Hp Honda, I decided I want to start building one for my self. The tib gave me way to many problems...

so here it is, I went from this...



to this...




The guy I bought it from jerry rigged alot of ****... it had no rear mount, because he still had the d series t bracket, and broke the t case cause he tried to use that... I also got a new sub harness, and cannot get it to run right. The tps and map seem to be giving me problems... That and I need to figure out how to wire in vtec...

Originally the car was a auto, so this guy just wired in a button to start the car, cause he didnt know about the three wires you tie together to trick the NSS... LoL. fixed that...

B16A with a GSR head...
other than that, it has ugly *** tan interior... ebay lights and strut bars, oh and coilover sleeves - this thing rides like ***.

But the plus side is i picked it up pretty cheap... it had a nasty tick.
to bad he didnt know that valve lash can be adjusted

Oh man, I know how you feel I got completely bent over, no lube, for a car that ended up costing way too much for hidden problems. Luckily this forum dishes out decent help and there are usually people with the same problem.

As for your interior check this thread out https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-civic-del-sol-1992-2000-1/how-diy-custom-interior-project-%2A%2Ano56k%2A%2A-2500737/. He's doing an interior coloring and carpet swap, and it looks pretty good with many pictures. Doing this will also give you a chance to clean and such.
