New EG hatch!

[94civicturbo]

could be it? haha it came from the cincy/nky area, i wish i could find my old ls swapped ef hatch

 

[hondafreak513]

mine didn't have a sun roof and it had a ls swap, and a shit ton of suspension work done to it. and it had a trailor hitch on it. I used to haul my dirtbike with it.

 

[94civicturbo]

oh okay haha, this one has a pretty good suspension setup on it, tein springs/shocks, blox camber kits, and blox lca's

 

[hondafreak513]

oh yeah and be careful using those slicks with a stock motor. they will break axels and tranny's. if you do use them keep the air pressure up high on them. Unless you plan on putting high end axels in.

 

[94civicturbo]

alright thanks for the tip, any psi recommendations to still hook but not break stuff?

 

[hondafreak513]

Probably around 24psi bout what you would have on a street tire.

well its back to the dying problem again, im thinking its tuned into the computer to shut off at a certain temp, so im gonna try another thermostat (hopefully better one) and hopefully it fixes it again, so its left at a friends house until tomorrow

 

[hondafreak513]

its dying again???

 

[94civicturbo]

yeah, theres info about that on the second page i think, it goes into some kind of limp mode and wont rev or anything, but its fixed, put another new t-stat in and its fine once again

 

[hondafreak513]

huh odd. but good its fixed.

 

[94civicturbo]

yeah i talked to DK that tuned my car, pretty cool guy he helped me a lot over text, he told me to only use Honda t-stats in my car so if it screws up again thats what im doing

 

[CAFROG]

Really odd fix. You flushed it a week or two ago....right?
If it starts acting up again, start a new thread so we can get more input from others.

In Limp Mode.....no CEL???

 

[94civicturbo]

its not really limp mode, its heat protection mode so it cuts it down really far to where itll barely run and he told me i need to put a honda OEM thermostat instead of an auto parts store one


acquiring a new winter beater tomorrow probably, heres a hint

Its purple, has 4 doors, and is lsvtec...

 

[94civicturbo]

take that back, getting it tonight, ill have pics up here in a little while after i get it

 

[94civicturbo]

got the car and drove it home, its got a VIS OEM style carbon fiber hood and trunk, LS/VTEC, Hasport mounts, Cold air, and apparently the motor was "built" by TPR but idk about that, it is wrecked, but i traded a $500 truck for it lol, ill be starting a thread for it probably tomorrow, im getting some of the parts to fix it from one of my friends, but anyway heres a couple pics of the "good side"

 

[hondafreak513]

ha ha ha TPR Yeah my brother thinks Rob is a honda god... well the good side looks decent. hope it runs good..

 

[94civicturbo]

it runs great actually, the ls/vtec is goin in the hatch and the b16 is goin in the 4 door

 

[hondafreak513]

cool you should sell me the civic cheap i need a car
