Default JDJ Conversion Finally finished...pics inside!

Well...it finally got done....took forever in the body shop, as it was a favor from one of my best friend's dad who owns a body shop, I fix his computers, he fixes my car....so I really have no room to complain

I just go the car back, but unfortunately, the motor still isn't done, so the car looks all jacked up in the front. That's why in the last pic you see me and a friend towing it home with my truck......what an experience that was.....hahahahha

Any way, tell me what you guys think....keeping in mind these are really bad pics just before it rained....damn south Florida weather!!!







Opinions???

Darton 84.5mm sleeves, JE pistons, Crower HD rods, Rev valves, Toda Spec-C cams, Toda cam gears and timing belt, 70mm Erick's Racing TB, JDM DC 4-1, another new ITR tranny(long story), and some other stuff that I'm sure I'll remember as soon as I turn off my pc....Most of that is just upgrades from what I had previously before I put a rod through my block....so I guess you can add a new ITR short block to the list as well...When I get it done...I'll take some pics and post some dyno graphs. Hopefully Pacific performance will finish with it soon...Hint Hint (if you're reading Darren).

Later,
Aj

Looks just like the gap in my conversion. *shrugs* Although i would probably screw the passenger side hood bumpstop in a half turn. Might help the hood stay down more.

i think he's talking about the gap between the wheel and the fender...No motor in the car will give it a rally look

There is no motor in the car, so the front of the car doesn't have any weight in it...once the motor gets put back in, it's pretty low to the ground....I run Ohlins coilovers, so there's normally only about a half inch of space between the fender and the wheels.

When It gets done, I'll post more pics of the car...

If people learned to read instead of just looking at pictures like a 2 year olds picture book, they could answer their own questions. "Mommy, where do babies come from?"

Hahahah....towed it fine I guess, the car doesn't weigh much as it is...but since the battery is completely dead, I had to drive it with the windows closed in this hot *** florida weather, which sucked, not to mention it started pouring rain....

But now it's not OEM Honda, and you're not cool without em...

J/K. I'm not a fan of those wheels but that's an awesome job with the conversion. It came out nice.

What caused the hole in your old block? What was the situation (misshift, racing, city driving, etc.)
