Anyway, here's what I worked on today. Stripping some redundant wiring from the track toy. Feck I hate auto electrics!! Apparently that white grease they use in the door connectors is carcinogenic (he says after swimming in the stuff for the last 2 days :eek: )

[Brian92]

I bought one, well it was yesterday but forgot to post.

1996 EK with 124K on the clock! Already on coilovers and 16" wheels, with some tint.

Got a front strut tower bar as well for her today, and take delivery this week.

Plans are now afoot for the slowest Honda I have ever owned. :) But suspension and suitable seats are the first things to be considered.

Oh, and since its my first post...Hi everyone, lurked about for a few weeks as I was looking for the right car as a project. Thanks for all the info, and help, so far.

Ok lads need ur input on this, ive thought long an hard about the future of my civic, to rebuild and shoot for 400hp or to buy a new replacement, an frankly, im more so leaning over to buying a new car, more so a S14, not as a drifter but more so as a replacement as ive always wanted a Rwd turbo since ive gotten off my p's 3 years ago, an since than the civic build has progress more than it shoulda lol

As the car stands now it is making at 140kw with high boost an moddest 120 kw on low boost so its a fun little toy.... But the dilemma is that should try to sell the car as is, later on the year with the full custom turbo kit an all the goodies inside the car minus the amps an sub and bucket seat and with no road worthy?,

OR

Better off just parting out the car all together and selling the car for like 4- 5k with coilovers and rims?

strongly advise against building the civic more

all the money you put into building the engine wont make a big difference to end selling price and may even scare off buyers

iirc the turbo hondas that have been advertised on here with built motors dont fair so well

plus the more you mod that car it will become a dog to drive being fwd and neverending money pit. more power then stronger clutch bigger wheel/tyre coz no grip etc. etc.


cut losses imo

Busy day today.
Took out all the a/c gear to clean out the bay

Finally fixed up the intake so it's not quite so tight anymore. Still a bit squeezie but it's finally sitting up nice and tucked feeding from all that cool air through the bumper.

A brake change. Old ones didn't have much on them, seemed like it's about time they came out. Just throwing some standard pads back in before I do a larger pad upgrade to the the 280mm

Lastly, I finally got the front diffuser/dust cover back on. Originally took it off due to scraping, but it's been sitting around and cars up a little higher now too. Going that it also helps a little with some downforce issues on the front drives.

You can remove the paint on the backing of the gauges so that it is transparent on the back, not sure if that is how he did it too. I did it for my redline :)

Why not do a rear disc swap instead?

[Dyln.bxtr]

Lack of money's....

[Super-DA9]

Why not do a rear disc swap instead?

Was just thinking this. 242mm and drums is way insufficient for B18C7 in EK chassis.

Illegal and unsafe I would think..

[Dyln.bxtr]

Surprisingly, mod plate passed with flying colours. I have heard of rear disk conversion being required for mod, but the engineer advised me that the drums, because they're 220mm, were sufficient. However, he recommended a conversion.

[cbauto]

Lack of money's....
I have what you need for disk swap.

[Dyln.bxtr]

Also, I've heard that a disk conversion isn't really worth while.

I would much prefer to just do a big disk upgrade on the front.

Rear brakes are very important, they're there to relieve a certain amount of strain from the fronts and keep the car from lifting too much weight off the rear during braking. If you were to do continuous hard braking (track or downhill mountain road) just think about how hot the front brakes will get.

Honestly you will have more braking power by adding rear discs than just upgrading the fronts. I think if you look around you could probably pick up a 4 disc setup for the price of a big front upgrade or less if you're lucky..

Also if you check out the Brakes Direct website there is a video where their technical director explains the importance of rear brakes and why they should be upgraded with the fronts. If you wanted to hear more about it that is.

+1 Unless u personally done a drum to disc conversion, it makes a huge difference on track and when giving it some, the breaking feel, gives u much more confidence

recipe for disaster hahaha

Quick update, was suppose to do a headgasket job, but seems like the head was warped causing the gasket to seep abit off coolant,, but no signs of gasket damaged sigh! Bore looks too shiny, no good, and signs of scratches on the bore, but not enough to make me worry, but because of the top of the bore, there seems to be heavy discolouration and slight damage, enough to put my finger nails in, caused by burning coolant or something else, so will need to be machined 20 thou

Plans are:
YCP 75.5mm piston
Skunk2 Rods 138.62mm
arp rods/bolts (already had head bolts in)
Machine, Deck, Hone block
Machine Head flat

That is it for now, D16 heads are good flow for upto 350hp, was planning on doing head work, but no point for my power goalsa and limted budget :(

Pulling it apart as i speak SLOWLY as im i cbf in this winter, cold rainy weather lol

if you modify the led's you will reduce the hotspots you have, heres how i modified mine, i also snapped out the tabs next to the 2 bulbs under the rpm gauge so they spread light better. http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?150689-Comprehensive-Ek-Civic-Led-Cluster-and-Climate-control-Conversion-*Updated-22-07-11*&p=3023986&viewfull=1#post3023986

Nice work, big plans ahead??

[carayan]

Nice work, big plans ahead??

definitely, way bigger plans ahead, i just happened to have a b18 so why not throw it in. (i actually wrecked an integra and instead of selling the motor i kept it)

That's a great attitude to have haha. What are the plans?? Got anything definite yet??

So, I painted my valve cover and intake yesterday.

Both were looking tired and worn out.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/03/bu4ade4y.jpg

But after being stupid and not tightening my valve cover nuts enough, I have lost 3.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/03/ypy5e2ad.jpg
Anybody got some ideas of where I can get more like them?
I've been thinking of replacing them all anyways, so may aswell do it now.

[EKVTIR-T]

You can use generic ones from a nut and bolt supplier or from any Honda dealership parts dept. ^

[Vvvtec]

Bro what happened with the lettering on your valve cover lol. Next time just sand the paint off the letters with a block, that way you will have nice edges

[Dyln.bxtr]

The last time I went looking for some like it, I was told they weren't produced anymore... Guess I'll have to try again haha

[Dyln.bxtr]

The paints the wrong colour and the cover needs to be replaced anyways haha. Just did a rough job until I found a new one

[u mad?]

They called a dome nut, every bolt shop should have them

[Dyln.bxtr]

Yeah, I think last time I was looking for the ones without the top. Just the nut with the washer as the base. If that makes sense...

there you go Dylan nuts

[Dyln.bxtr]

Got the nuts. But, since I did the led conversion, my temp gauge is reading overheated, even at idle where it would normally read half. Is there anyway to reset it or any tips or idea you guys might have??

your bulb might be causing it to over heat

[Vvvtec]

Or you know, the engine may be overheating too

[Dyln.bxtr]

Nah, not overheating. It's only started since I removed the needle to take the gauge out. It'll cold idle until it's 3/4 then sit on overheated when idling. I've tried resetting the needles, but it has made no difference.

[Vvvtec]

So umm yeah it may be overheating

[Dyln.bxtr]

Not overheating.... Gauge is playing up.

[EKVTIR-T]

you put the needle wrong

[Dyln.bxtr]

Yeah, that's as far as I got. What's the best way to put it back in? I've tried putting it at 0 when I first start in the mornings. I've tried putting it at halfway when the cold start ends. They all end up with the same result :/

[cbauto]

You need to fix this.

Even if you get another temp gauge, you have to calibr8 properly again.

Or just get someone to do it for you,

[Dyln.bxtr]

I'll google up what temp the thermos are meant to turn on and how to calibrate properly. Just wanted to see if there was any advice.

If you didnt touch anything, its probably just the nedle position like bowruz said

[Dyln.bxtr]

Yeah, needle is all I've touched. I've noticed the fuel and others are a bit iffy too. The only one I've calibrated is speed and partially tach

[Gray.]

Did this the other day but had to take off the rears because they rub my guards when I bottom out. Car is on King Springs which makes the fitment nice, but they are too damn soft and everytime I bottom out I rub my guards obviously. Need to source some coilovers but that means money which I need to save up for =\

Definitely needs camber because from the back it looks stupid as hell poking out so much. Don't know whether I should keep these or sell them for wheels that won't give me so much hassle. I got these relatively cheap so I thought what the hell, but now it's going to cost me more to sit them in suitably. Thoughts? Car is in the making... I don't know a lot about cars coming from sport bikes (bought this for the winter). Rest of the plans is to spray the moulds white, get a front/rear lip, and a new boot... long story short, it had a centre spoiler, last owner had silicon'd it on, tried to remove, ****ed up paint behind it all, now looks ugly.

Edit: Wheels 15x8 (+10 offset I think). Tyre specs 195/55/15 and 185/55/15 for each pair.

Stiff Coilovers, Guards Rolled or pumped and a camber kit is what you need. Looks good. reminds me of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxglvadvbO8

This is exactly what I thought of.
I'm trying to do mine the same style but black, and a bit more aggressive looking.

Got it dyno'd again, without 10-50w and really messed up plugs that were both 8000km old, replaced with 10-40w and plugs which would be in decent nick at 4000kms or so.

Which is left, and which is right?
Which way is up and which is down??

[Vvvtec]

Dylan pls

You bolted your control arms in upside down instead of doing things the correct way

Do not try justify it

[Dyln.bxtr]

You didn't answer it. Can you tell what the differences are?
And outline any negative side effects there would be, as to which way the control arms face.

[carayan]

lmao 10/10 response

[Dyln.bxtr]

I've been hearing plenty of shit talk and trolling surrounding the way that LCA's are installed, yet no one has given any info, shit talk or factual as to what side effects could be had due to them facing differently.

[Vvvtec]

The difference is the control arm was desinged to work one way. You are just lazy.

[Dyln.bxtr]

Still. No factual info at all.
You're talking directly from that shit filled mouth that's crammed right up your ass.

[Vvvtec]

Theres no hope for you
