^^ Forsure aye Luke!

Thanks Guys for your support!!

The thing is too Will,I'm 34 and had manuals all my life so the gold coast + an auto was and still is so nice to have.

I buggered my left ankle a bit from my bride bucket seat by having it at a bad angle and driving in it all day on my first track day,so near gear changes is a good thing.It's like it gets a bit swallen after a bit of work on it..

yeah fair call, it would be convenient. iv come from the opposite end of the scale, im only 20 and i learnt in an auto, wrote that off then bought a manual and spent 2 days teaching myself, after that and enjoying everything after it, i wouldnt go back to auto unless i was too injured to drive a manual, or if i needed to tow a caravan or something

how goes your D? I think i read somewhere that you're putting that cam in now?

[beeza]

Yeah man,it goes great guns! It's perfect really.I wouldn't want bigger power at all.The stage 1 bisi cam will make it funner to drive.

Here's some video's from the track http://www.youtube.com/user/beeza2

I was running the stock shocks then...

[will13]

nice vids, those are with the cam already in?

im thinking either stage 1 or stage 2...depends on how bad my idle will be with the stage 2

[beeza]

No I haven't got the cam in yet.Stage 1 U can just drop it in and reset the ECU.

Stage 2 U should replace the springs and retainers and tune.

Some guys run it without the springs and retainers but it's a risk.

hey guys

i need some info and im confused >< i want to know exactly what my engine is now before you flame me im buying teh car had a drive etc.. but i didn't get the engine number or anything off my brother in law and he isn't very mechainical at all so simple question:

I have a EG5 95 Civic VTi Hatch (SOHC) Vtec engine.. what is the most likely one in there? i can't remebr if its 1.5 or 1.6

also were these models rare? a friend of his said that "the EG5 are the rare ones" im lost so yeah help a bro out

also since my exhaust etc.. is done the next step would be a better camshaft, whats the best bang for buck without (if at all possible) modding the ECU and the rest of the Valvetrain (excluding the cam gear)

thanks in advance

PS loving the thread been reading through the previous posts trying to learn...not working though hahaha

cheers

1.59 SOHC VTec but yes its listed as 1.6

I put a con rod through the side of mine with to much boost hahah

the sum roof is designed to leak its not water tight

[hitoriko]

yeah im generally not a fan of sunroofs/moonroofs etc.. there a bitch to fix when things break and etc.. but lucky mine is good for the moment (touches wood)

so what shuld i do to this engine its going to be my daily and can't be off the road more than a weekend what kinda cam would be good for daily driving but still seeing a track once in a while

[ekcoupe]

same cam that beeza is putting in a stage 1 bisi cam. he uses hes car for a daily and occasional tracks it.
