car has come a long way I still remember walking you through a engine removal haha

[88lxi-shortram]

Lol I know. That was first engine swap.. You helped out alot. Lol since then ive done at least 10-15 swaps. U sparked the flame XD

[88lxi-shortram]

allright well to start off im legal on the road now . passed emmisions for the last time and everything ive been driving it to work and back for almost 3 months and everythings been going good besides an oil leak. but i recieved my new hose in the mail which will stop my oil leak hopefully. but today my car was idling at 250 when i got off the exit and everytime id stop from acceleration. soooo... i played with my idle screw a little and took it to 1000 rpm just to accomadate for later idle drop. also i checked my fuel pressure and im only running 30 psi while running. if im not mistaken it should be at 38 correct? i have an aem FPR i can use but havent put it on. someone clear up exactly what my fuel psi should be and what else could cause this.... o and my passenger door is jammed shut so if anyone knows how to magically open it plz spread some knowledge

[obdriver6]

Fuel pressure should be between 36-41psi and why is the door jammed shut?

wow its been a while since i updated on the car. so heres the updates. im now running the pacesetter header, port IM, and a carbed engine i got from luke(but its FI of course). im also a "tad bit" lower. and am planning on building 2 3gees, one boost and one all motor. ive recently got a new house so funds are a little short until i start being able to average out my bills and such but you guys will be seeing more of me here again since i now have access to the internet again and will soon be buying another camera. but pics coming to you guys in the next few minutes here.

[Dr_Snooz]

Looks boss dude.

[88lxi-shortram]

thx man. thinking about changing colors again soon but this time the car will be down for a while. im going to full strip it down, do all the body work;every last ding; and have the interior, engine bay and exterior of the car paint the white thats coming on the new crz. it has a slight hint of blue pearl in it and i love it lol. other than that ill be doing a tuck on the pass. side of the bay and recoating the underside of the car.

ill be buying another 3gee to rat out to the fullest soon. ive heard of people running s2k trannies on c32 motors which i just so happen to have laying around so im going to be building the first (that i know of ) front engine RWD accord. it wont be a fast build but you best believe it will happen piece by piece.

[Dr_Snooz]

That sounds completely sick! Take lots of pics and vids.

[88lxi-shortram]

i will once i get the funds for a project shell lol

[88lxi-shortram]

been a while huh guys lol

[2oodoor]

Hey I WAS just thinking that when I saw you on, what r u driving these days?

[88lxi-shortram]

right now im driving my eg. its been a great daily but damn its hard to go anywhere in it. egs are getting stolen left and right and it makes going to the store for more than an hour is nerveracking. i just recently finished painting my bay. lol actually its still drying. ill post pics of it once it finishes drying. planning on dropping the motor into it next weekend. also got a beautiful set of sei leathers i threw in the car. next ill start restoring my rear disks. (caliper rebuilds, next rotors/pads, new bushings for the entire rear, painted backing plates and new undercoating. now that i have access to a computer ill be keeping everyone updated more often...

on a completely unrelated update i will be having a baby boy in july. so that is a reason ive been slacking on the build lately. been busy on getting together baby stuff and making room in my house for him.
