WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR ED/EF/CRX TODAY!

Hey guys!

I noticed there was no thread for early model civics, so I decided to make one, as I will be buying and ED in the near future, and I want somewhere to post pictures and ask questions etc. So please, everyone, post away! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Don't everybody post at once ok. I'll start. My plan is to buy an ED GL for cheap that's for sale in my suburb. Then convert it to efi and do an engine swap. I just have some questions though. When converting to efi I will be using an 88 crx fuel tank, upgrade to higher pressure rated fuel lines (ofc) and add a vent hose from the carbon canister, and mount a fuel filter. Just a question though, do carby cars already have a carbon canister? Is there anything else I need? Besides new engine and loom etc. Any help would be great. I know this question has been asked 4000 times, so don't rant about how I should search, that's what this thread is for. Cheers :)

Hahaha yeah, I was quite dissapointed when I noticed. But i have some skunk2 coils on the way, so that should fix it up :)

Some bad news also, went for a drive yesterday to fill up the tank and maybe find some corners to test out the car, but mr. Po po was waiting at the servo, so i got a yellow sticker and a nice fine. ****.

So didn't happen today but good story.
I had to change my fuel pump in my dark blue crx.
So I dropped the tank, took the old pump out and rewired the new one in.
Thought why I had it up I would service it.
Did that then let it kick over for a bit, then took it for a drive.
Its the first time I've serviced it since I've bought it lol.
...... Oh yeah I did lower it a lil while ago hehe (Lowered the coil overs in front and put rear coiled sleeves in the back).........
So took it for the drive and it was running really well through town.
Took it on the on ramp and gave it a bit (went so well).
Hit about 110km and then it happen.
The hole ass end started to float, tell ya wasn't as fun as you might think
good times

metal scrap yard towies will pick them up. It's gonna scrap the shit out of your driveway/concrete pulling it up there. but at least they will take it. free of charge.

Just got it off egay man. Easier than waiting to autobarn to order. yeah, only reason I had to change it is because the last owner tried to put it back on after paint valve cover faggot red, and fuked it up. Just sealant around the corners and a light smear on the straights for piece of mind :P

boys boys boys, got an offer today to buy an ef9 wreck off a mate of a mate.

It has some pretty bad front end damage - not a repairable matter but the engine still runs. everything from the mirrors back is in pretty good nick (including the interior).

heres a pic, how much would you pay?

I would pay 300. But that's just me, I tend to over value everything so I'm not ripping the person off. Wish it was in brisbane, I would take it straight up! If you do end up buying it, want to send me the roof lining? ;)

ouch
11-11-2012, 09:37 PM
seriously? just a few hundred dollars?

pat88c
12-11-2012, 12:02 AM
I say between $600-1500
For me interior is worth a big if you look at prices on ebay or yahoo auction, if the a/c panel ha no cracks worth about 200, and any other JDM goodies are worth something to someone
Plus you got all the parts for rear disc swap and bigger front disc too but check before to use the front hubs yo see if there not bent or broken
I say buy it

The motor and gearbox may look and be ok, but after crush like that there will be some damage to block or gearbox housing cracks maybe

Kenninho
13-11-2012, 12:54 PM
TBH the reason why he wants that much for the b16 in that EF9 is because it's OBD0 and cable driven. Doing a hydraulic conversion isn't easy, there are kits, but most are developed for LHD and there are hasport ones which still use cable (but often snap).

On another note, I'll buy the cluster and the cluster housing for $100?

CivicEGSI
13-11-2012, 10:18 PM

You mean this? http://hushperformance.bigcartel.com/product/v2-5-1-ef-pro-street-cable-to-hydro-conversion

Kenninho
14-11-2012, 11:30 AM
haha when you actually do it you'll see, hush performance is still developing RHD, which is probably impossible as where the clutch pedal pivots is too shallow and will hit the top. If you try and order the kit off Hush, there is no option to ship to Australia once you click checkout (cos' it doesn't work with RHD)

As with the sonem EF, same deal, how these kits work is that they mount the clutch MC facing towards the driver therefore pushing the pin towards the driver rather than towards the engine bay. However, as I mentioned before in this post, where our clutch pedals pivot, there is not enough room to even mount a CMC on to do a true cable to hydro conversion. So what I did was I cut the firewall and mounted the CMC on the firewall.

Running s2k CMC and EK clutch pedal. There are many ways of doing it. But keep in mind that the firewall wasn't designed for a hydro clutch so reinforcement may be required either by creating flanges or reinforcing braces. I've just cut and welded.

Anyone know if Crx and jap spec ED6 have same rear disc brakes? Dont know what to look for when buying them

just buy rear brake assembly off an EG Si or VTi.

They can be bolted up, are newer, and easier to find replacement parts for in AUS.

I'm running EG Vti discs all round on my ED. Front have the discs and calipers swapped over but still using the ED knuckle, rears have the whole rear brake hub (trailing arm is still ED part)


dude we need a build thread for that beast

+1. post more photos and create a build thread. There are still some ED junkies around that need a fix

prepped and sprayed my hatch spoiler in primer (got a HVLP gun for xmas)

First time I've ever sprayed not using a can. Pretty impressed with the lack of overspray from it

If you mean EF2 (25X models) they come with rear drum, not the same as ED9/EF7 or EF8.

The imob lost power, went into a safety loop and can't bw brought out until you do a manual override. To do thus you need a 4 digit pin that I done have. Le sigh. (I've worked out how to do it though)

Biggest problem with the remote was that it's surface mount and I don't have a small enough tip :(

You will need to get eyelet type coilovers. As ED6 stock LCA's are homosexual lol

Lol like I said. There's eyelet type and the "fork" type. You probably have EG rear LCA's so it will fit. Whereas what skunk2 is saying is the LCA on Pre-89 ED's have a hole in their LCA where the strut slots in rather than the conventional LCA the strut has an end fork that clamps over the LCA

As would i, but sadly i graduated a month ago and have no access to the labs :| Thinking about buying myself a proper resoldering station, oscope and decent power supply but then i realise that i could just buy a whole new car with the money instead ahahahah.

If its a fork type, just need ef8 gear no? Or am i assuming that skunk2 make stuff for forks wheras in reality they only do eg/dc setup?

lol that reply was to Civic EGSI when he said you don't need to change LCA's.

It really depends what you have on the rear, look at the centre of your LCA's and see if there's a hole where the strut sits or whether the strut clamps over the LCA.

not too sure whether the skunk2 coilovers are fork or eyelet type tho, you'll need to check up on that

I've been spending the last few days doing the wiring for my swap.

quick question, pgmfi ecu, the main relay wire from the ecu.

this should only receive 12v when the ignition is on correct?

Yours is eyelet type. Need to change over your lca's UNLESS you can find eyelet type sussy which I doubt

Don't know how to explain any simpler...

Eyelet type shock fits into LCA that looks like this

This is the fork type

http://www.fortyone.co.nz/media/blox/IMG_3204.JPG

Bolts onto the LCA like this, goes around it not inside like eyelet

Fair few more results on YJ. There's a reasonable amount of eyelet parts, just not big in the US so im guessing exposure is limited to those who understand japanese. (i cannot speak/read any of it btw, google translate ftmfw)

15" cheaper tyres

markismaximus

I think 13's are too small, even on an ED.

Agree with above, 15" tyres are in the sweet spot regarding performance vs. cost

trism
17-01-2013, 10:08 AM
x2, 13s too small, tyres $$$

Ive been considering going to 16, or even 17 for something different.

I'm in it for the looks, not the performance.

For 15s to have good fitment with very little tyre to guard gap, the car needs to be slammed.

this is barely legal height, 195/50r15

16's are also good, more wheel options from EG's and DC2 drivers. But I've always been put off by the size of 16's on ED's. It's almost like a polo GTI with 17's
