***Official What did you do to your EK today***

[Dyln.bxtr]

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.


But after being stupid and not tightening my valve cover nuts enough, I have lost 3.

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.

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

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

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.
