Default 1993 Blue DX EG8

Well I just got this car about a week ago. I got away from hondas for a little cuz my eg6 go stolen 2 times in a month.... So I found a nice 91 MR2 turbo. I loved that car, but all the parts for it cost way too much and it was not good on gas at all. So I sold it for 1k more then I got it for =P and got my self this lil 93 civic.

This car has TOKICO shocks, with BLOX springs and Blox camber kits all the way around. It still has the stock d15b7 engine in it and its about on its last leg lol. So the day after I got it I when out a got a JDM d15b vtec to put in it =P.









Here is the D15b vtec engine I got for it.






So I started to take it a part so I can clean it up and replace all the seal so I know that it will not leak =P






My friend had this cover from a 03 civic, so Im going to clean it up and use it.



Here it is after a lil cleaning.




Here is my engine after cleaning it up a lil.






So I really dont like my stock clutch set up so Im got a stage1. with an 8lb fly wheel.




Here is my new dizzy


God speed drain plug



So thats about it for right now, Im going to work on it more tomorrow.

Well here is My engine after I got it all cleaned up and all new seals and gasket.








So today was the day to take out the old engine and put in the new one.

And so all you know it was very hot today and I did all this work my self, cuz my friends said it was too hot -_-.












So my "throwout bearing" was making a lot of noise, and I found out it was the bearing in the tranny... So i need a new tanny now. =(

Some New Updates:

Had an overheating problem: Changed the radiator, and got a slim fan.

When It was hot out side the brake peddle would sink to the ground: Got a new Brake Master Cylinder, also I have all new rotors and brakes on there way.

Clutch Master Cylinder was leaking in to the car: Got a new one and clean the line out of all the old black fluid.

Car would star up and die, there was no noise from the fuel pump: Got a new fuel pump, now its load as hell lol.

Didn't have v-tec: got a p28 ecu

Ill get some pictures of the engine bay soon.

I really don't know what I have not replaces on this car =P
