I went for a quick cruise in the mountains with a couple friends before work, we were taking pictures of the cars but I decided to head out since I was running late. I left the rest stop and the very first corner I must have been going to fast or I didn't slow down at all, not sure I was...

I was in a car wreck about a month ago. My car is somewhat totaled. I know it can be fixed but honestly I would rather sell it and buy my self a stock Honda. maybe a prelude or integra. I am selling the engine and car together but thats only because I am on bed rest and can't take out the engine...

I have a 203 whp civic. I want it to handle better than it does now, If i launch at a high rpm it spins the wheels too much, I'm thinking of upgrading my wheels/tires setup to 16x8 or wider, currently have 15x7, better tires might help too but i have brand new kumho tires. It also sucks at...

I've tried researching but i have somewhat of a Frankenstein going on, so I need help. Here is what I have. chipped obd1 ecu looking for a 2 wire iacv. 3 wire obd2 iacv. 96-98 auto y8 intake manifold 96-98 manua y7l throttle body with 96-98 auto y8 rotor and throttle cable. my iacv is...

hmm. good question. so here is my experience. ebay intercooler. good in my opinion. its godspeed. fitment was "universal" but its perfect for my civic. intercooler pipe. came as a kit. fitment was dead on. I only had to make a cut which was a 90 degree, up to the turbo. but the cut was...

I won't quote everyone but, the car runs great. besided the idle. I still need to get a two wire iacv. which means I need to get a manual intake manifold. and stuff. I am getting 9psi on my boost gauge. not sure how accurate it is. I will test it with another one. it's manual so I assume...

I have put a lot of parts into my civic, so I can tell you from personal experience a lot of parts are a waste. headers. help a little. but the y7 has the cat on it so you HAVE to get a cat from an ex. your car will sound like s**t. and smell like it too. ebay headers are hit or miss. mine...

I've had a couple problems with loosing boost. but I got that all fixed up by my tuner shop. so far its great. :) , boost is soooooo much fun. I think better than an engine swap imho thanks. I looked at the first pictures I posted and its hard to believe its the same car. doesn't even smell...

Yes sir. right away. Here are the new updates :D

I got a dslr finally and decided to do a short photoshoot. I think my car has had a complete make over lol. Just to update since who knows when this car has remote start alarm system. new headlights, taillights, front/rear lip kit. full headers back exhaust system with brand new cat. y8 intake...

Thankyou that helped a lot. the car runs good now. no misfire or smoke or bad idle. Now my only problem is the throttle cable getting stuck. I'm going to get the EX one tomorrow since I'm off work. I have been trying to buy a new one from parts store but no one sells them. is this true? they...

I have replaced the intake manifold gasket with a new one again. torqued all the nuts down correctly and checked for leaks. It is all good now there. I replaced the throttle body gasket with a new one too. but I am 90% sure they gave me a y8 gasket. the square hole is bigger then the y7 throttle...

I've searched for a couple hours and have only gotten more lost :( I swapped a auto d16y8 intake manifold on my y7. I used my y7 throttle body with a y8 rotor. kept the y7 throttle cable. everything else stayed y7. lower intake gasket also y7. I blocked off the cruise control nipple. iacv...

Haven't been around in a while. but i'm getting closer to finishing the car. so here is a little video I did over the weekend. no its not pro. I didn't use high end cameras. or a high tech computer. so enjoy this video. http://youtu.be/4ulval83aV4
