For sure. I can't wait to get his teg running either. It's nice, I am jealous. well tomorrow I pick up the rear disc swap. I plan on turning the rotors at work on monday and probably replacing the pads sometime next week after I get paid again. Next on my list is an aem accessory eliminator kit just the crank pulley with the alternator belt only. Should drop a bit of weight on the crank. After that the plan is a tuned ecu and conversion harness. If anyone knows a good site to find ecus that the place will tune for your setup let me know!! I wanna get an exhaust as well but I probably will not end up getting one for a bit anyways.

Another couple side jobs came up. First of all some rear brakes on a 2000 cady seville, my mom's friend, that I have known forever, so I am giving her a good deal. And also a buddy of mine and I picked up a 92 accord lx with a blown head gasket, for $600 to fix and sell. Best part about it is that the owners of the car know my friend who is going in on it with me really well and are willing to basically give us the car and wait for payment til we sell it. It comes with full coilover suspension, some white 6 spoke 17" wheels, and a spotless interior. The suspension is going to be swapped onto the friend's car he has a 91 ex. We are going to throw his basically brand new stock suspension on the lx, and may switch the wheels as well. It has about 174,000 miles on which isn't too great but for the condition of the car I am thinking we should at least be able to get $1200 out of it.

Got the civic running finally, got a ton of work done on the accord. Brakes were done by someone else. Bought a set of brand new kyb struts, and shocks for $100 on craigslist.com for the civic. Next up a set of lowering springs from eibach, skunk2, or progress. I need to convert it to obd-1 and get it tuned so I don't go blowing up all my hard work.

I am looking for a relatively stock motor it's my daily driver. I am trading my coilovers on the car for a set of 93 gsr wheels the 14" ones. I was planning on going with eibach or skunk2 springs on the kyb struts/shocks anyways. I also got ahold of a 95 gsr rear brake swap by gettin rid of some extra stuff in my garage.

picked up a set of 90-93 gsr wheels today. The tires are going to be dismounted tomorrow so they can be sanded down and painted black. $60 without tires due to curb rash. I happen to have a set of 4 tires that fit these wheels waiting to be mounted as well.

dude there is a search bar in the top left hand corner of the screen. Besides I am pretty sure for that swap all you are going to need is the engine, tranny, and 1 integra mount. I believe the back mount. The stock civic mounts bolt up. Check to make sure. I stuck with a d-series motor. By the way is that a manual y8? If so if you are willing to sell it I would like to buy your ecu.

I feel bad man that does suck for sure. That is a ton of work for such little power. But unfortunely that's how our underdog motors go man. But 168 horses does seem low. I have heard of mini me motors that put down 150 something with a full exhaust and a cai with a bit advanced timing complete stock block and head. Which motor did you build though?

Anyone know if the ecu code 37820 p2p a12 is auto or manual? I can't find it anywhere including the reference materials section on here. I tried googling sites with lists of honda ecus and couldn't find many that were detailed past the 3 middle letters/numbers.
By the way if anyone ever wants to buy parts from Prostreetonline.com I wouldn't suggest it. I have had a pretty bad experience buying my cam gear from them. There website said nothing more than approved as the status of my item for the first 2 weeks after I ordered it. So I called them exactly two weeks after considering ground shipping is supposed to take 4-7 days. They were closed so I left a message. Never heard back, e-mailed them got 1 reply then nothing. Finally talked to someone about it 3 weeks to the day after ordering it and he tells me it was back ordered for 3 weeks and will ship out that day, mentioning it will arrive early the next week. Well here it is headed to Friday of the next week 1 month and a day since ordering the cam gear and still have yet to recieve it. Not to mention my account was charged the day I ordered the cam gear. I called again today only to leave a message again because they were closed again. Frankly I am getting very annoyed. This is pretty much the last thing I need to be able to get my civic back on the road without blowing it up the first week. Plan on buying an ecu this weekend after I cash my check, as well as finishing sanding and painting the gsr wheels and taking them to work to mount my tires. __________________

Yeah but this build was all about budget. I found the entire motor including every accessory, most of the motor mounts, with the complete d15b7 I bought with 85,000 miles. The motor was clean as hell and I got it for $250. I am about to sell the head to make some of my money back. But I think it was a pretty solid deal for a motor that I finally got running two days ago. I am having some strange issues though..I have an erratic idle everytime I push in the clutch from 1,000 rpm to like 2,000 rpm. Also my timing belt seems to slip closer to falling off the cam gear, to the point where it has rubbed up against the timing cover multiple times...has anyone else had this issue? Either of them? Also I need to go through my suspension and tighten all the front end components. Something is shifting around turns and making a pretty ugly sound.

so think I figured out what was up with the suspension being loose, and the timing belt is not slipping anymore. I think my plan is to try and talk the mechanic at my 2nd job into tuning the fuel pressure for me. I could do it but I don't have a gauge. I decided to throw the best two eagle gt tires I had on the wheels, and buy two tires from work for the front.
