I don't have a sunroof and mine is an lx. Does it have aluminum wheels?
 
my bro got his 93 4door for free..needed a VC gasket..
he put header back exhaust,intake,amber corner lights,new radiator(we accidentally put a small pinhole) and drives it everywhere..only had 127k when he got it..
only problem is the rust and the drivers window has been off track since he got it..

The LX never came with all the power options/roof and had steelies. The EX did had the roof, and so did the two years of the SE. Some SEs had leather too. The trim levels are set up the same way since they have been since 1990. LX is the base model with no options. EX gets you some power, roof, and alloy wheels. EX-L gets you leather and a different style alloy wheel... sometimes a size bigger.

Wow at this thread jack. Get some pics up Matt!.
 
I was referring to Ethan's, but what trim was that one?

mine is a lx. everything power no sunroof.

It also has these jetta wheels on it. (From a Jetta)

lmao can you tell i was tired with that last post?
 
No updates as of right now, still waiting to see when I'm going to be on the dyno.

I did buy a set of Darton MID sleeves for the B18 though, so those will probably be going in this winter if I get the chance.
 
Well, I hit the dyno last night. Let me just say one thing: there's a LOT left in this car. Both Cody (the tuner) and I know this and we're going to go back a couple more times this winter.

Problems I ran into:
1. The place we dyno'd at didn't have a large fan. My car was running hot the whole time, thus not making as much power as it should have.
2. The car's tachometer is messed up. It's reading more than the car's engine is actually turning. So, I basically had a rev limiter at 6k rpms. Boo.
3. This is with NO methanol and only 9.5 degrees of timing @ 20 psi, which is a fairly conservative number. Some cars leave the dyno at 12.5 or more degrees of timing @ 20 psi.
4. My intake manifold is holding me back. I know it. The car should have made more. But, I do think that the RPM's are a large factor in this.

Anyway, here's the graph of my best pull:

319.1whp and 282.5 ft/lbs @ about 6,000 rpms.

Not a bad start, and this thing is an animal on the streets now! My god a 320 hp Civic is a lot more than I was expecting!

Oh.. and the Darton MID sleeve kit is here..... :ph34r:
 
nice numbers... wish i had 319hp! lmao l
 
Yeah at only 6,000 RPM's. I've got a weird issue with my tach, I'm not sure what to think of it. But it'll do for now.

320hp is crazy. It's a blast tho :D
 
Haha, you're all the way in New York! Otherwise I'd say it'd be before winter hits. :P

I ordered my Edelbrock Victor X Intake Manifold today. I can't wait for that to get here. I am going to pair it with a throttle body and install those over the course of the winter.
 
yea shit sucks for me. but if all goes well im moving to florida soon.
