Ok, I'm still hunting for that stupid camera cable. Once I find it, I'll post pics.

I'll include the complete turbo, wastegate actuator, etc. I gotta check and see what else I have leftover, I accidentally ordered 2 rebuild kits so I think I have some extra stuff lyin around for it. But whatever I have for it is yours.

Default Updates

Here are some updates. Yes, I finally found the damn camera cable. Anyway, these are somewhat old. I'll take some more tonight after I finish up the interior.


My buddy's hatch is now in the garage for some work.


Two boosted hatches, one garage.


Turbo'd LS-VTEC making 352 whp @ 10 psi Garrett T3
(Go ahead and try to find his hatch.. not registered at the current license plate address)


Bottom end back together.


Look how clean she is!


JE Pistons, Eagle Rods


Fresh after a hone.


The head, patiently waiting for some attention.


Some more work to the bottom end.


The bottom end is all re-assembled now. The engine and tranny are in the car for some mock-up work, I'll post pics tonight.
Thanks for looking.

EK hatch for EG hatch?I I am VERY happy that it is coming along and is what YOU want it to be, Matt. I would repeat myself on what I just posted on my other thread, so I will just let you read about it. It's the third to last post on my EK vs. EG hatch thread. You can see pictures of my EK on there too, by the way.

Thanks for the link man. I like your hatch, I have always kinda wanted a white one.

I personally dunno what I would do in that situation! Your car is pretty clean and stock. A great starting point. His car is nice looking, also very clean. Its all up to you man, its all about what you want.

I do want the EG, Matt, but if it does not work out, I need to make myself focus on my EK. If that ends up being the case, you and I will definitely be working out a deal for your parts. After all, I like all of the parts I listed. They'll make mine look almost as pretty as yours. haha


EDIT: Actually, my main focus is my EG sedan which is also white. The hatch will most likely become a sweet DD...for the time being...if I can keep my hands off of it, which I doubt. haha

Yeah man thats completely understandable. It took some courage to stay focused on my EK because I had people offering me trades, and cash for my hatch. But I love it, its my first car and it'd be difficult to get rid of it if I ever had to.

OOH, a white EG sedan AND a white EK? Ballin. I love white/black combinations on Civics. Especially with the front and rear lips black, CF Hood, CF trunk, and the roof painted black. Or just the Hood, trunk, and roof painted black. MMMM.

Well, if you cant get ahold of that EG we can work something out on those parts.

haha...you have no idea how many offers I have gotten for my hatch. WOW! My mechanic used to keep it at the junkyard and I would get at least ten calls a week and that is being moderate, of people wanting to buy it. Then he took it to his house and the calls kept on coming. If it were an EG, we would not be having this conversation right now. haha

lmao@ballin. Yeah, I like the color white on cars, especially my cars. I agree on the white/black combinations.

Believe me, if the deal falls through, I have the utmost faith that we will work something out on those parts.

Haha, thats funny man. It is becoming a little harder to find clean EG's and EK's. They are getting somewhat old.. and a lot of people don't take care of them.

Haha, yeah man. I am also thinking about selling my rims, in favor of some GSR fat fives. I just like the OEM look for my hatchy. Keep it stock looking, but mean under the hood.

I've been friends with the girl that owned this one since she bought it seven years ago. The story with it is that she had the transmission replaced by my mechanic, along with the water pump, tensioners, valve cover seal, grommets...etc. etc. and then the tranny died. So, she gave up on it. I swept it up from underneath her, chucked the automatic transmission which was shit anyways, took the tranny off my EG, put it on the EK, upgraded the EG's tranny to an Si, replaced every freakin' seal on the Y7, including the head gasket....*catches breath* and yeah, now she regrets selling it. haha

Those are nice rims. What size are they?

EDIT: Not that it really matters now, but the timing belt had also been replaced.

What d16 engine did you have before? I'll bet that's the IACV plug. You'll need to convert it to a two-wire for your new engine. If you don't have the plug, go to a junkyard and get one. Or you can just go without it if you don't mind a screwed up idle. (I went without an IACV for about 4 months Feb-Jun.)

More than you ever wanted to know about the Honda IACV - GasSavers.org - Fuel Efficiency, Save Gas and Gas Mileage Forum

obd2 -> obd1 IACV Fix (3-wire to 2-wire)


EDIT: Wow, I feel like a moron. I didn't notice that this thread was 6 pages long. So yeah... I'm guessing you figured it out.
