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)
my shocks clamps over my lca so mines a fork type
Thinking of running 13x7 +0 opinions thx
15" cheaper tyresQuote:

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

13's could get you that low look lol
Im think of sell a car, maybe a crx but civic would be better to sell
ohh gawd please dont fit 16s or 17's to a 4th gen !!!
Think my only option is 16".... 15" won't clear the brakes
: (
what parts are needed to make a ed9 front bumper fit onto a ed6 hatch? thanks
Not the correct place to be asking, and try searching. It's been covered
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to markismaximus again.Quote:

getting dry ice for sound deadening and hopefully take out engine tomorrow. big things.
Nice. Where you getting the dry ice from?
Um there is a place near the airport apparently, they said they sell it so yeah. Do you know of anywhere reputable?
Unfortunately not. That's actually why I was asking :p see where you were getting it fromQuote:

You should be able to get it from most BOC stores.Quote:

You can get dry ice from woolloongabba. I got it for I think $20-30 a kilo
where in Woolloongabba? name of shop?
I forgot but is across the road from south side Honda ironically
I got a few steps further along on my ED project. Full story later, but today, I got the engine in my donor car running on the original wiring loom (a challenge, seeing how it was chopped and tucked and had an aftermarket alarm spliced in), and dropped it out of that car. Photos didn't happen much, but when I can get some more pics happening, I'll start a build thread.
It's stupidly hot in brisbane at the moment, I know how you feel! I was like swimming in sweat taking mine out.Quote:

Wont be too bad i think. I will enjoy it because i will feel like a race car driver :)Quote:

Not including the dash mat that I've also removed, it felt quite heavy as Kenninho says, perhaps a similar amount to the floor deadening.
5kg is 5kg, every kg counts when n/a
wow 5KG's !! might have to get my act together and remove the sound deadening finally.. I need a few more KG's back to make up for the cage.
how do you take off the headlights,frontbar,aprin off a ed6, tried today took bolts out but still didnt come off...
perhaps a bit of a wiggle and maybe a mallet? gotta keep in mind ED's are really really old cars, in 5 years time, these cars are classified as classics, so some of the parts can be rust-binded togetherQuote:

You need to remove the front bar indicators. Behind there are 4 bolts which hold the front bar on.Quote:

^ wattt u go an EG hatch now Mick !!?! ?
Yeah bro, had it since October. I was looking for another Gen 2 CRX, but at the time there werent any decent ones available/in my price range so i settled on an EG :D
Turns out i cant read today either. Somehow i thought this was the EG thread. Sorry guys!
Maybe it's just me, but I find Adelaide ED's are all in good condition compared to QLD. I'm down here for a business trip and I see heaps of clean ED's lol
Bring one back with you...
Such a long drive. But sounds like a good idea haha
Got a few questions, if I am using the donor car loom, and it has electric climate control, and mine has manual climate control, will it work? Does the ecu control the climate control?
what model car and year is the loom from? Also, when you say electric climate control do you mean the heater box direction flaps are electric? or you mean its a digital climate control?
anyone know if a Bride fixed back seat with eg/dc2 rail would fit a ed6 or what would i need to make them fit thanks
gave the zc a service before it (hopefully) goes in tomorrow. Need to figure out whats the go with the looms + ecu + efi hoses.
i can just use the crx engine loom, right? do i have to worry about the cabin loom?
The car is a da7, 4 door da import, but I have a feeling it had a ZC before the b16. And yeah, like to make it come out different vents its all electricalQuote:

Perfect sense :) I had a feeling that because it was manual I wouldn't have to change it much, but just wanted to double check, thank you for easing my mind!Quote:

Anyway been building this for the past 9 months or so.
Today I picked up an EF9 tank, sits better than my DA9 tank.
Did this: OBD2A EFI loom for 4 door sedan

Haha Cheers Grifty!
A few updates to share, but no pictures.
So in the last week, the engine and loom has come out of my ed, and the engine has come out of my donor car. I recently purchased a set of hasport mounts, ef9 fuel tank etc. Turns out the mounts were for hydro, not cable, and I'm still waiting on the fuel tank. Hmm. Anyway, slowly getting there, conversion should be complete by the end of march :thumbsup:
Idk where else to post this.
Link removed, I think I wanna buy it.
Came across this, pity it's an auto. Looks like it's a jap model though? Vicroads check shows up with a VIN that looks like a Pre-SEVS import vin.
^ WOW it's got the 'ZC hump', bronze glass and a parking pole !! is worth the price just for those bits !
what what i need if i wanna do a b16a conversion to my dual carb ed6? thanks
Engine, gearbox, loom, da9 driveshafts, ecu, hasport ef B series shift linkages/ef9 shift linkages, EF B series hasport mounts ( if you have cable gear box you will need cable mounts, hydro box will need hydro mounts). EFI tank, change fuel hoses to efi rated hoses. think that's about it.Quote:

If converting just convert to B series. Not that much different in price.Quote:

In an ED:
A D16y1 is bolt on with factory EG mounts (no extra mounts to buy)
Wiring isn't too fierce (or use a piggyback set up - ECU for lights etc and ECU for engine)
Existing driveshafts will fit (from EG or ED)
Shifter linkage is a case of using existing hardware or EG hardware.
Fuel injection can be sorted by an external pump (like AH OEM)
Exhaust will likely have to be worked on regardless.
If you're lucky, you'll have almost everything you'd need for the swap just by getting the package.
I was estimating 1k for y1 vs 2k for bseries.
Then again if the sound is more important than performance I should probably shut up.
as long as its vtec, get to claim mad tite hella jdm as fuuuuuuuuu
Go b18b. So ****ing cheap, loads of torque, profit.
i agryQuote:

B20 its cheap ish.
Then add the vtec later
Im sure a ed9 with stock b20 goes off
I do like my b's tho
im going b series thanks for the info guys
If anyone needs an EF/DA B-series timing belt bracket, hit me up

What panel filter options are there for an ED/EF?
Is your car injected or carby?
