if your anywhere near Kansas City I can take you to my buddies shop and hook up his OBD2 scanner and it will tell you everything.

yeah i was just reading something on energy suspension bushing help with "wheel hop and traction loss". Also another question. if you bought new control arms and sway bar endlinks, would it be a good decision to buy the energy suspension bushing even though your buying something with new...

So i was just wondering what would help with wheel hop. Like a traction bar? I was wondering b/c when i try to get a good launch when I want to gun it at a stop light; it doesnt get traction when I try to accelerate really fast it just hops till I let off the gas. I know that this is bad and...

Just got to Ebay, you can find one pretty cheap. Cheapest i've seen is $300. Most expensive around $800.

i see that u did the same to the wrx

You can spray Brake Clean on the area you think theres a leak. Sounds stupid, but he did it on my 01 civic one night while were at his shop just to see if everything was all good.

Okay so I found a TSX k24a2 engine for $2300. Is it better to buy the entire k24a2 engine or should I just try and find what I need from k24a2 and k20a2. I want to upgrade all the internals in both the block and head for turbo setup. What would you recommend keeping to save money? I've been...

Thanks for the advise. Actually I have a friend who has a really good reputation here in KC and he had a k24a2block and k20a2 head and dropped that into an integra and made it a 9sec car. Ridiculous right. He is a genius for real when it comes to honda motors. He knows everything. So he is...

thanks for the advise. the only reason i was looking into a K20a and not any of the other K-series motors was b/c I wanted an engine that started out with higher hp. Yes it is hella expensive which is why I asked about the internals, but it could be worth it in the end. They do say that if you...

wait. so do u get better mpgs with a higher octane fuel like 91 or does it just make your car run better cause its a better mixture of gas. cause i know if u put higher octane gas it gives you more hp, maybe not in a D17a2, but in say a K20 then I would think so.

So I was looking into upgrading all the internals when I order the K20a so I can put a big turbo on later and have a motor that can handle all the boost. I was looking at Blueprint Racing (and many other companies) and they have upgrades for everything. I dont want to sleeve it or bore...

Kautic_Zues i'm not talking about the lower control arms. Skunk2 has those for civics. I'm talking about the lower arm bar which ties both rear control arms together. I see now that the lower tie bar from neuspeed would help support the rear sway bar. I wanted to upgrade the rear sway so i...

Sry for the confusing posts. I will try and simplify. I was just wondering if the skunk2 lower arm bar and neuspeeds rear tie bar were the same thing? And it seems like they are from what your telling me.

I want to turbo my car over the summer and I was wondering what would be the best exhaust to buy? B/c there are a lot of companies that offer new exhausts for an 01 civic, but does anyone know if you turbo the car would the same aftermarket exhaust work or is there another exhaust that would be...

Okay so I figured it out and now I can have my cake and eat it to. I ran a wire to the actual light switch in the car from the halo switch and the halos turn on when I flipped the running lights on. And the lights dont come on when I flipped the switch for the halos only. So everything I...

Alright so the switch works now, but I still want to be able to turn the halos on when the lights are running without hitting the switch. I tried running a wire from the switch wire to my ignition wire on my headunit, but that just turned on the headunit too when I hit the switch. Should I...

Okay so I am going to take disconnect the wires from the running lights. Then im gonna run the red wire just to the switch and im gonna run the other red to a ground. So that will turn the halos on and off when I want. Okay also so what you guys are saying it if i splice a wire to run to the...

Ok so what I do is take both red wires from both lights and unsplice them from the parking lights. Then I connect one red wire to the switch (this will be the hot wire, correct?) I made and the other to another ground in the engine bay. You are correct when you say that I would have to leave the...

I dont have a link to post up cause this was just an observation I was wondering. I was looking on a couple of websites and noticed that skunk2's bar is very long a skinny and just one solid bar, where as some other lower arm bars are differently shaped. And neuspeeds lower tie bar looks like it...
