The Panda Project 3.21.2007 *Daily Updates

[maxoutracer]

the panda project...
owned for well over 4 years and went thru so much crap... when i first got the panda... zc motor was strong and pull hard... now it has clutch issue and burn oil really bad... guess time for new transplant... pick up a part car with good motor, swaping it in... :) plan boost sometime in the summer/fall 2007
burn qt of oil every 1500 miles... no leak... compression hold about 150 across...

AWESOME! what's your plan for boost, anything extensive?

[Pico]

Cool.

[Cheeseburger]

sweet!

[Legend_master]

First off, I would have sex with an aligator for those wheels :lol: . Second I think you need to buy some chains next time you sell some of your old rims. I laughed when I saw the seatbelt buckle. So what type of products do they make for the ZC internal wise? WIll you be running stock sleeves or just factory? Good luck with the project and keep us up to date

[frantik]

:thumbup:

[hotdoghogie]

ha... omg nice!

[EricW]

Nice work. I replaced one of those power steering boots on my car with a moog one and i have to say that is not something that i look forward to doing again with the rack on the car.

I would clean as much as you can while that motors is out, it will never be that easy to get to with the motor in.

[mkymonkey]

wow problem after problem huh? at least youre taking care of it lol

[MessyHonda]

yeah...that sucks about the clutch....i thought 86-89 tegs had a similar clutch to our 3geez.

[speedpenguin]

So are you getting a full clutch kit or just a new disc?

[maxoutracer]

So are you getting a full clutch kit or just a new disc?

this was pulled off my blacktop zc... since im dropping complete new motor... oem clutch is in use, since just my temp motor... im going back with act street disc when i build up the blacktop zc.

[maxoutracer]

[russiankid]

[jschatte]

thats the jdm old fogey sticker actually
i thought carotman looked it up on wiki and it was for learner drivers in japan

[gp02a0083]

i think thats a green and yellow one that kinda looks liek a militlary badge or something wiki ittt!!!!

[maxoutracer]

So how does this motor run? Any difference from the other one?

runs lovely.... no oil burning, the zc pulls alot harder then the d16a1... due to the cams, im not planning to swap them over tho.... just as commuter for now.

[frantik]

The fukushi mark or kareha mark is a orange and yellow teardrop-shaped symbol that elderly Japanese drivers must display on their cars. Conversely, the green and yellow shoshinsha mark (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoshinsha_mark) or wakaba mark (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wakaba_mark) denotes new drivers. Both marks are designed to warn other drivers that the marked driver is not very skilled, either due to inexperience or old age.
