Yesterday was my first official training towards becoming a real honda tech

Lesson #1: Installing jdm fd and sp00n fw (pix are sparse due to time constraints at the shop)



when all else fails, force it! j/k


I'm a weak and skerd n00b so my sensei shows me how it's done at his hyundai shop


Since the question of LSD verification comes up alot


j00 should be able to see straight thru it like so


tranny almost back together



here's the other half of the casing


removing the heavy stock fw


fw and clutch is on and ready for tranny


tranny is done and car being lowered


everything is back in and my sensei is putting in the filler t00b for the tranny oil


kaa l00ks like it was never touched


the work area


only a few more cars to work on...


yshi - who can't wait for his next class

(if j00 f00z wana see bigger pix, just add ".orig.jpg" to the end of the pix url)

 

good deal.. whos car?? i didnt know the dealer does those kinds of work.

 

How long did the entire process take?

 

yoshi, the best slide show story teller on honda-tech

 

how much are you paying for theses classes?

 

Your car usually has no intake?

Nice pics...

Chris - who would like to learn the same things young grasshopper yoshi is learning....

 

yoshi: why not run the ATS FD?

n/m y0shi is running an ats.

-Dave, who is actually considering doing a ATS in the gs-r.. that'd be weird.. actually installing my own FD for once

Marc ---> who has ATS FD and Toda flywheel at home in boxes waiting for Dave & D

 

nice yosh!

 

it took a few hours, since mikehyundai had to explain things and my n00b *** was slow since it was my first time. stopping to take pix slowed me down also

these lessons aren't cheap, but that's ok for me b/c what better place to learn how to wrench on cars than a shop that even Honda brings their cars into

yshi - who'd like to thank mikehyundai, oops mikehonda, rick and the porter (forgot his name) who stayed late last night

 

Very nice yoshi. I would love to sign up for a class like that, instead of learning the lessons in a hard way (touch wood)!

 

nice work...

Sounds like expo '03 needs some 'tech sessions' during the day (or in the evening)....

Will
-who is off to think

 

I was thinking the same thing...

Yoshi: Care to share? And did you move your battery also?

Alan

 

ah, the missing intake....still have the stock box; just took the 'final' pic w/o it
battery is still there, j00 can see it in da pic.

will: tech sessions would be awesome!

yshi - who might sell some of his mods to help pay for some real tools

 

baonest- who will [maybe] buy some of yoshi's mods so he can pay for real tools.. whatcha got?

 

Want some help? I'll bring the beer . . .

 

Damn, everything l00ks g00d, EXCEPT..... Why mountain dew?
-Will

 

to tech sessions at the expo. That would be very cool. If anyone is planning on mods in the spring, maybe hold out until the expo?? just a thought

 

Stay tuned . . .

 

werd and what better place to try out your new mods than at the track!

haha nice pics and commentary yosh. mike was probably ready to cold **** you with all the pics and lagg! haha to mike and his car

 

I'd be up for some tech sessions at the expo.. last year we had "how to change a clutch at Walmart in 30 degree weather"

expo 03.. ?

 

I would like to see a FD install in person...

JN who can swap a clutch and flywheel like nobodys business...but is way to wussy to tear apart the tranny on his own......

All I need is to have an avatar that says "owned!!! by himself"

 

Hmm....

B2 - who wants to swap a flywheel, clutch, and final drive.

 

cool.
