now on to the motor build. here are some pics of when i was tearing it down and what not


















UNUSED LS RODS (SAVING FOR BOOST BLOCK)




rebuilt and packaged
















finally got some motivation and put block and trans into car







then got to putting head on the block and bought aebs intake mani and vented the block with the ports from prelude

 

good luck with the build..

 

thanks im trying to get this on the road as quick as i can. work from 11am-730pm and its cold out when i get home/all day hate pa weather. what plug is on this gsr tb.

 

recieved my chip kit yesterday got 3 bags of parts from xenocron. going to try to tackle chipping and adding vtec to my pr4 ecu. still need to convert the harness and make my jumper harness. gotta drill the 2 rear holes to mount the shift linkage and drill the hole for the clutch cable. is going to be a b*itch to do since i have no idea where to drill the whole. thought about taking the dash off and drill from the inside to the bay. what do you guys recommend.

for the harness i just follow the pin out for both ecu's correct.

 

nice

 

finally got my obd0-1 ecu diagram made so i can start soldering my jumper harness. also got my drive axle 94+ since i have the 94+ dc half shaft.

 

what do u guys think of my build so far. anything that you would upgrade(exhaust header intake cam etc let me know open to opinions

 

pic of the diagram?

 

what are your plans for the exterior? Im kinda liking the half red and blue combo.

the build is definitely heading in the right direction for sure.

 

here is my diagram i made on excel. open with excel if u can. decided im going to paint my sedan Montreal Blue Metallic Clearcoat........B-35 1988 which will look like this but just the sedan. the blue on the trunk is the og of the car.

 

i want to get ride of power steering do i just need to buy manual rack or do i need a rear cross member also? if i was to keep power steering with my lsv swap what pump and and can i reuse the civic hoses?

ttt for answers

well this weekend i got around to drilling holes for the shift linkage and put in shifter from ed wagon haha here is the pics looks like one of those performance shifters.

 

here are some more random pics of the car from last weekend. i know no one cares about my threads. no love

 

4dr EF's are gangster. good luck with the build.

 

ttt for my answers.. thanks for the comments.

 

ey man good tread i am doing da same thing hope fully soon to a ef 4 door just with a single cam do auto to five speed here i come

 

back to update this thread. havent done much work on this car.

well i plan on doing a da front knuckle swap to get bigger brakes for the lsv swap. im in the process of taking the motor back out the car so i can put the crank pully on and time the motor and attach the engine harness once i recieve it. i was going to tuck the harness but decided to just go with monotech conversion harness for 300. he does nice work.

before i started taking the motor out i was messing with the shifter and feels so slopy. not sure what the cause or case would be to fix that but it was an auto and i swapped to manual. innovative linkage.
