Well, just thought i'd share some pics of my project that I have been slaving over in my garage for what seems like forever. I finally dropped the tranny and engine in, and have pretty much everything together for it's first start up since the re-build, but I can't get any spark. Everything was working when i pulled the motor out, put a new coil in, crane Hi-6 led indicates a signal when i crank it, but still no spark... i'm waiting for a new stock gsr distributor to drop in, and hopefully that should do the trick...or maybe i'm hoping it's just a loose ground if i'm lucky? bahhh? anyways, here's the dam thing as it sits thus far.

the quick lowdown:

97 GSR B18C1
JE pistons 9:1 (.020 over) / Crower rods
Nuformz blockguard (yeah yeah, i know, hehe... i'll be
building a spare block when i get some extra cash...AEBS)
Skunk2 valve springs/ valves/ retainers
JG TB / JG victor x manifold
AEM fuel rail / cam gears
Revhard piping
Apexi gtr intercooler
Greddy type S / Greddy Profec B
InlinePro manifold (Thanks ART!)
Precision SC61 turbo (Thanks again ART! )
revhard dp / tanabe exhaust w/ testpipe (for now )
Tial 38mm wastegate, still working on the dumptube
AEM EMS, greddy 720cc inj., walbro 255lph intank, mallory fpr
Stainless fuel/oil lines and AN fittings (Thanks STAN! )
Greddy Boost/egt/oil pres./water temp guages & turbo timer
DSS level 2 axles, ACT 6 puck w/ xtreme pres. plate
(boooooo no quaife ) still saving... $$

money's running kinda tight nowadays, but it's all part of the turbo game i guess, eh? still have to buy some dam silicone reducers and some black vacuum lines...but really i just want the dam thing to run! blah! any suggestions on the ignition system or my setup are appreciated and welcome. The car cranks really strong and gets plenty of fuel, just no spark. comon ups!! wish me luck guys....

not the craziest setup, but built with my two hands and honda-tech info!

Damn thats a good looking set-up you have there. How much power you hoping for?

 

well, i've been at 280 whp for the longest time with my revhard kit, and i thought that was fast for the street...so i can't imagine 400-425ish whp? But i think with good tuning, and also they sell 100 octane at the pump down the street, i think it's doable. My crappy *** open diff. prolly won't cut it though, hehe. We'll see...*fingers crossed*

 

Very nice job man!

 

what fpr are you using? thats a very nice looking car.

 

mallory fpr...comparable to aeromotive. thanks for the comments....hopefully, she'll be running this weekend.

 

Good lookin car man. Very clean

PS. nothingwrong with stock diff's. I ran 550whp on mine, till it exploded at the end of the season, hehe

 

best looking hatch on honda-tech IMO...ive loved your car since the first time i saw pics of it (when i drove through jacksonville last week en route to my condo in daytona i even thought about it )

 

nice nice nice!!!i love it..

 

now that is some pos!!

Nice setup man. The car looks really good bro.

Nice job!

 

one of the cleanest hatches I've seen on this forum...nice motor set up as well.

Thanks for the props. With a little hard work and persistence, you can do it as well my friend . best of luck.

 

that thing is beautiful

 

for those that pm'd me about the color, it is silverstone metallic off the '03 nsx, with a platinum pearl thrown in one of the clearcoats. oh and someone requested some interior shots...so here you go (remember, under construction, heheh) some of you may have already seen these pics, but they're all i have for now.

 

*Back on Subject*
I'm thinking its your ignitor.
Borrow someone's dizzy and swap them out and see if you get spark. Goodluck

yeah, thanks for the advice. I'm hoping that's what it is. For the same price of an ignitor, i got the whole stock distributor, so hopefully...as soon as the UPS guy delivers it, she'll be good to go.
