MY EYES!!  OH GOD MY EYES!!!  Man those are saaa-weeeet!  I'll buy E-AT a burger and a beer if he shows up at bryman's party with those.      That's a nice project you've got going there, and yes I'm totally jealous of the size of your garage.  :suffers from garage envy due to his *small* 1 car garage:

Haha, that's not as bad as January 28, 2004, - 35C (-31F) !! Cpiddy on flagstone under the DX
dropping the gas tank to solve a sputtering fuel problem... Turned out to be the fuel pickup neck
had a pinhole in it.

Who needs a garage, garages are for pussies...lol. j/k, Our lives would be 100% easier with a
garage.

Awesome, that subframe is just sexy, even if it is just a subframe!

Also, if you haven't gotten that last bolt out of the crank yet, you should be able to file/grind two sides flat and remove it with a nice good set of vice grips.

Cheers,

i had thought of that too, but i don't have a vice to secure the crank in. plus its got that hole in the middle of it. i think that would comprimise the integrity of the bolt itself and just break off in the jaws of the vise grips. a machine shop could get out right? they have more tools than i do. almost ready to get the machine work done if i can decide on the piston situation.


WHAT is the piston situation you ask? well, im not sure if going through the trouble of locating the proper 1.6 piston will be worth it. i'm looking at a money spent : reward ratio.

either a: get the pistons, and deal with the way high compression and necessary tuning and additional parts that will come with it. or

b: keep the stock piston and shave the head just enough to put around 10:1 which is where i was told i want to be on pump gas.

all the information i have gotten is from here. yes i want this to be a fast machine, but not one so complicated that it sits in the garage for two years because of indecsision, parts hunting, incompatability of the parts themselves, etc, etc.

scott <----sure wishes there was an easy solution.

well i started off like a bat out of hell then slowed down, but now im back to work. how is yours coming along???? btw i updated my thread

[calmoc9]

unfortunatly, mine is still sitting. almost zero progress has been made. i'm ashamed to say it but i'm having trouble finding motivation. my ass is really getting fat watching tv. the only thing i've done is drain the gas tank. and that was so i could mow the lawn! however, glad to hear from you! didn't expect a sohc d series.

UPDATE YA'LL
change of plans. the zc will in fact be going into this car after all, as a stock replacement until the ew4 gets rebuilt and into my white car. the block is in machine shop now being cleaned, honed, and checked for cracks. right now im cleaning the engine bay to get it ready for paint and get the zc off the floor. im tired of being a lazy ass and watching everything collect dust.

see other post about deleting the fresh air intake.

edit: back from the dead. jeez, a year already. pathetic

wow, three freaking years almost four, and nothing. still got it. piled in a corner with all the parts piled inside. collecting dust with another project laying on top of it. however, i feel this is the year.... if i can finish a bodywork project, a cb 750f project, and a do a turbo on my white crx, the black car may have a chance.

Git R dun!

At least you don't have rust like I do. I think I'll name my project, "Mine's Worse".
