clearly you have never owned a rear wheel drive, worked on a toyota, etc. . . people like you should get the boot, although I'm sure your kharma is already f-ed

meh, I really have not had luck. Do you have any good ideas as to where to look online for motors shipped? Also, I thought that the Honda heads had their own part number or description. I ask this with the idea that maybe the d15b7 head is the same as other heads, meaning that I could...

If only Honda would have done a few RWD's in the eighties...

Beautiful car!!! I love the wheels, sit her down a bit... you have some great friends :) I look forward to seeing you on yota forums? I'm sr-winter on Toyota Starlet and other K-Series Toyotas (has this become the hate forum???)

I have a customer (side work) with a 1992 civic, auto with d15b7 who seems to have blown her motor. I have not spoken with the mechanic who diagnosed the problem, but it appears that something internal has failed. Assuming that the head is still in decent shape, what is the most readily...

actually gas mileage is not that great, considering it's so much fun to mash the pedal. with the dual carbs... seems like it's too hard to be light on the throttle, and without an o2 telling the computer proper mixture, i'm sure a lot gets flushed out the pipe. i'm still in the process of...

note: the noob should have written d16a6 sorry and thanks :D

newly painted d14a1 valve cover...

The run down: I am in Europe, driving an EDM 1987 civic GL hatch with a d14a1 dual carb. I am having a cam from my old d16a1 sent to me, however I am trying to find info on properly adjusting my cam gear and dizzy. Apparently there is a half-tooth difference, and I'm wondering if someone...

Now looking for... an edm or jdm shop manual for the d14a1 carbureted. they are KeiHin carburetors, and KeiHin does not have a direct web site, nor does the internet have any manuals for this specific civic. it's an odd ball, being a d-series with a carburetor. is anyone able to source a...
