ohallo
back in april i sold my EK1 to fund a DC2. Looked at a few that just werent up to scratch condition wise. Lots of them were beat up and not well taken care of.
Until this popped up on gumtree. Clean, stock, low(ish) kms and owned by someone who actually knew their shit about the car, and was previously owned by an old guy.
It had 2 weeks rego and no roadworthy but all it needed was 2 tyres and a seal.
Sorted myself some 195/55 RE002's all round;
and got roady/rego.
picked up a few other bits like a DC2R lip and DC2R gear knob
Then found a package on gumtree cheap.
Tein street flex DC2R coils, dc2r LCAs/endlinks, ASR 24mm sway bar, asr rear subframe brace.
swiped them asap and got them on and this is how it sat for a while
Stripped the black from the ASR and added my own touch:
I was absolutely in love with the way it sat and handled. So much grip. The potenzas are really awesome tyres even in 195.
Picked up and installed a Mugen twinloop catback:
Sold my potenzas and DC blades with the intention of picking up buddyclub P1s with toyo proxes T1Rs but sale fell through.. so now im on ghetto spec wheels
Mugen MF10 reps up front, Jazz stockies up the back.
Kinda like the MF10s.
Recently, I picked up a B20B8
Along with;
Moroso Sump, Edelbrock Adjustable Cam Gears, Type R Oil pump, new water pump, walbro fuel pump, gates racing timing belt, ARP main bolts and a baffle plate.

Started tearing down the motor
Heard all the stories about things people did to get the crank pulley off.. said lolk and rattled it off nws.
Pulled the head, pumps, old sump, thermostat etc and everything else off.
And thats as far as I've gotten with it. Gonna start cleaning the block up tonight.
Next week I'll order a bottom end gasket kit from JDM yard and a VTEC Conversion kit, and once the block is all sorted, I'll pull the head off of my B18
