shaving the sunroof would be a mistake.

just keep it closed. lol.

I would also consider a plug but I'd rather have it removed properly 100% free of leaks.
or you could just buy new weather sealing to go around it.
seems like the cheapest, easiest, proper way of doing it.

I wear stretchy pants
this is very true.
looking good man. what s up with the wheels?
I haven't been able to find a set of rims that I like in a CRX but those rims in 16's would be sex for my taste.
how much do those Work wheels go for?

Well its not just the seal. It rains rust flakes on me when its open and it falls off the track every time I open it. I have to push up on it to close it (takes like 3 tries back and forth to find the sweet spot.)
Those in 15x7 are $950 from Infinit Wheels.
Im sure you set the valve lash cold but just asking?
Buy this tool, its worth the 20 bucks.
Good job so far, some things I might of done different but overall at your age damn good job.
What tool? If there was a pic its not working.
Also he is doing a good job for any age if you ask me. I certainly was not as car savvy at his age.

Yep done at cold. And I managed to set the valves fine with that wrench.

Yeah, you're so right. It did tighten up every time. I eventually had to set the valves loose then when I tightened them they would be at spec. And they all have a slight drag, one size up (0.001 in) wouldn't fit.

VTEC engages at 6000 RPM instead of 5600 suddenly. It was just starting to run normal !

Chipped P06 with a P30 stock basemap chip from Xencron (spell?) 4500 sounds amazing to me. I wait forever for VTEC to come, especially with the long gears. I probably need tuning, no one around though. Might have to travel to Seattle in the worst case.
oil level, dented oil pan, or clogged solenoid are the main issues for vtec being late/non-existant.
also, i know it may not be as fun, but 6k really isnt that bad for an engagement point. My prelude was set at 5900. You couldn't feel the difference but you could see the difference at the track.

Oil level has always been perfect. Either my solenoid, cam seal or VC gasket is leaking though. I should replace them all.
Pan is dented a little bit but I don't think nearly enough. Solenoid screen has always been clean. I think the solenoid may be leaking a bit and lowering the pressure = late VTAK.
Once I can afford a descent header I plan to get it tuned then the tuner should set VTEC engagement to suit the powerband. And I think I want to delete the pressure switch in the ECU, nothing but problems for me.
My idle is high again too but I think my tach signal is fucking up, it jumps around some times.
I've been thinking about the tick and it cant be the valves because most of the time its quiet. I think its a worn LMA. The more time out of VTEC, the more the LMAs get used? So if this motor just putted around its whole life then the LMAs could just be worn.

Got code 7 TPS tonight and the throttle is being hesitant. I could never get my TPS calibration good enough so maybe this one was bad.
