I went to school with those guys here and did some recording with them a long time ago...I will see if I can upload one of their songs that I mixed for Ted (lead singer). I dont know if they play it or not, but you might like it. As for import alliance...I havent thought about it, but it wouldnt be too hard for me to get off work, maybe I will go.

Finally had time to hit the shop and do a couple things!
First I cleaned up a bit-


Then I cut up my front x member. Gotta get my hands on a ETC or something soon before I do any real hard driving/racing...


Then I just plopped in the ole K&N for kicks temporarily.
I think I'm going to "tuck" my intake too (just do a 90* off the throttle body and have the intake sitting right above the axle/rear Xmember.)


More to come. I need to bleed my brakes and then I'll be good to drive it around a little more.
Got to raise my fuel pressure (idling around 40psi... needs to be more like 45-50) And change out my spark plugs. It's breaking up throughout the powerband and vtec is nothing...
Just a few bugs. I'll get it right...

Huh. I'm not sure what to think about that place. It sounds like a nice deal. I wish they would post prices for the parts (before you sign up) so I can see just how much savings there will be.

I guess a place like that would be VERY good if you saved up a bunch of money for a selection of parts and bought them all at the same time. Then you would really save some moolah!

They have some prices up...I just compared my front camber kit and it was about $20 cheaper than what i paid and i looked everywhere for the best deal, ut you would have to order quite a bit of stuff in three months to make it worth while.

Before the first pass...



on the second pass, about 6000k into 3rd gear, it clunks and he shuts it off. pull into the pits and find this.
Timing belt snapped and the valve cover is broke. (is there any connection? lol)




so we trailered it home and tore it apart-
whoa.





Then we decided to pull it out. (theres gotta be TONS of metal shavings in there and stuff... so he's just going to figure something else out)



Had to bust this baby out more than once.....


Mr. Motor!



crazy day...

My car is working great, been driving it around a bunch! pics and vids up soon.

Update on Dev's motor-

Continuing to strip it down. He's gonna just use his LS block, my B16 head, and get his car running again for a while. I've got plans for this GSR Block

On to the pics

wow.... "YAY CROWER STG 3's!!!!" nawt...


Devin at work



Then got the head off. (BTW, ARP studs are 13mm, 12points.)


Bend valves much? Each cylinder had at least 1 bent... (per intake/exhaust)


Then we dropped the pan to check out the insides. It looks like the oil swept most of the big stuff away, but you can still feel the metal in there. Time for hot tank!!



So most of my updates will be on this since it's taking up most of my shop time. We're gonna try and get him running by this weekend (lotta work ahead of us! ) Thats our goal anyway. We'll see......

Oh yeah... this is a big LOL!

I'll just let the videos do the explaining...




So I guess I was right, they were little banana spiders-


Now I have to deal with this crap on my B.
I'm thinking the hot tanking will take care of all of that though...


GAH!!




LOL

Holy crap! I really feel for your buddy Devin, Andrew. I think I'd cry if that happened to me after spending all of this time collecting parts for my build.

I never knew "Stage 3" meant 3 pieces.

And all those spiders and larva are just natures loc-tite. lol.

Whoa....

Dad figured they had just broke in half (or in your case, 3 pieces).

It happens, unfortunately. They may have went together bad.. may have been dropped at some point.

Who knows.

Just think if you had been spraying :P

Andrew

I know right. I think it could have been a MUCH harder break. as it is, I think the bottom end is fine, and even the head is fine, but it'll just need new valves/valve guides.
There is actually 1 place where a cam cap is cracked (on the exhaust cam, nearest the cam gear), but thats nothing a doner head wouldn't be able to fix.

Heres the progress on my B16-

Pulled/packed the cam caps-



Pulled/packed the Cams-



Went ahead and labeled the head bolts. I don't guess it matters too much, but it makes me feel a little better knowing they are in their original spot. I guess it's my CDO coming out in me. (CDO is OCD, except in alphabetical order, like it should be. )



Then pulled the head off- (I was surprised how relatively clean the surface was! (untouched)



Then pulled the tranny off-


Then bagged everything up in trashbags to prevent further crazy spider/maggot things invading my parts... lol




And thats that.
I suppose Devin will be using my B16 head on his LS block, unless we think up another plan. He just needs his car running ASAP, so it's all hands (and parts) on deck...
