Nah dude im 100% serious im starting it tomorrow. im getting the junk block out and getting rid out the powersteering stuff. then prepping the bay and waiting for the mounts while i do a little work to the GSR. If anyone is in need some the A/C, P/S, or any other engine parts let me know. The tranny is perfect. Just grinded going into 3rd above 5,000 rpm.

Im hoping twoloud gets the mounts soon.

Im also selling a yamaha ttr225 4 stroke dirtbike. bought it new title in hand runs great very fast. And a badass gaming computer. PM me if interested.

PM me if interested.yea send me the vaccume switch on the back of the manifold,it is a carb car right? the one with three hoses that go to it,i just broke mine and i need it for the SU project.

[OldSkoolA20accord]

alright. ill try to see what your talkin about. if you can get me a pic it would help. just cover shipping plus a 2 dollars for pulling it. lol

[lostforawhile]

alright. ill try to see what your talkin about. if you can get me a pic it would help. just cover shipping plus a 2 dollars for pulling it. lol it's the thing that screws into the back of the manifold with three rubber hoses going to it, there are two of them,one has two hoses and one has three,they are right next to each other. dummy here broke the only good one he had. i think they weigh about 4 ounces. lol.

[OldSkoolA20accord]

Hell i dont need it ill just send it to you. if its not broken.

[lostforawhile]

Hell i dont need it ill just send it to you. if its not broken.yea there wasn't enough clearance under it when i screwed it into the water passage on the SU manifold, and the top popped off,have to move it to the thermostat housing,which means have to take it apart again and weld yet another piece on.

[OldSkoolA20accord]

Well since its going to be a badass setup i will just send it to you bro. Ill pull it tomorrow.

[OldSkoolA20accord]

By the way guys im pulling the shifter off tomorrow and taking it to my machine shop tuesday. Im going to make my own short shifter. If it works out the way i plan i will keep making and selling them

By the way guys im pulling the shifter off tomorrow and taking it to my machine shop tuesday. Im going to make my own short shifter. If it works out the way i plan i will keep making and selling themi used to just shorten them by cutting a section out of the shift handle,above the ball,then welding it back on. the honda has such short throws anyway,it seemed to work well.

[OldSkoolA20accord]

well i drove this dude kia that he had made a short shifter for and the throw was crazy short. Kinda like an s2000's throw. Plus i need something to keep me busy at school

[OldSkoolA20accord]

I got some pics im going to upload later. Getting this engine out without pulling the axles is a BITCH! But its almost there. Im gutting the harness and all. Im looking into RYWIRE.com. They have a thing called a mil-spec harness which is kinda like a universal b series harness. Its going to have a DA integra dash harness with a DC integra cluster. Im deciding on what engine. Either a
Boosted B17. or a plain B18C1 (GSR). Im not 100% sure tho i might just wait on the turboness. Also i picked up the throttle and clutch cable for a DA teg for free and i might be getting some axles for free also :rockon: Im really just waiting on the mounts. And my check. lol

My drill is so fast.



I wish i could just get rid of the fuse box but i need the rear defroster and shit. i might just cut the wires i dont need and leave the box there. Honestly i only care what the engine bay looks like now cos im going to keep it a straight sleeper when its done.

I cut 5mm above and 3mm undrer the ball and weld it together.. works fine and has really little trowel.. Now thinking about shortening the clutch pedal.. its like half a mile long for me, I was sold when I drove Audi S4 with short clutch.. I want one too..

[OldSkoolA20accord]

well i just want to make one so i can be like hey i made that. Plus id be the first one at my school to make a shifter. and i wanted to bent it like an inch to the bottom left corner.

why? bend it..
I say its easy to do, just cut out peaces at a slight angle for both cuts so you have alignment issue gone, when you going to weld it back together.

[OldSkoolA20accord]

I know i did thecut and weld thing to my friends civic. Its just a thing with me. i just like to say hey i made that. Can you?. lol Why you think im doing a b series swap?

[Rendon LX-i]

Dude its going to be sick when your done. I would love to see it in person

[OldSkoolA20accord]

I told you bro i want to check out that turbo setup. This car should be done in about 4 months if that. ill be up there this summer.

[MessyHonda]

rywire might be able to set up your wire harness...they are local for me
