My rice car: 1989 dx

[xohcef-t]

Heres a small update. I have started getting a small pile of parts going for the upcoming year at Bandimere. I have gotten a small sponsorship through performance porting which is a small shop up in loveland CO, so the head is up there getting the full race treatment. I have gotten an adjustable fuel pressure regulator along with a secondary Walbro 255, New set of Aero wheels and mickey thompson wrinkle walls. I will be having PFIspeed build a custom turbo manifold. Heres a pic of the slicks on the car.

Holy wheels batman!

Yeah they stick out a little eh? I'm a little more used to the was exospeed/lenso does their offset which is metric, when I saw on the web that these wheels offset was measured in inches I was a little confused, lol. 1.5 60's here I come!!!!!

nice nice man! i love it.

 

[boosted_zc]

So im an idiot(previous post) anyways i like it good job man but hitting 1.5 60foots will be hard... anything is possible i guess though

nice nice man! i love it.

EDIT: I couldn't find your last post, what were you referring to?

Thank you also for the props. I think it'll be do-able though, I pulled out several 1.65 and lower 60's last season on a harder compound slick so I really don't think it's out of reason, I just plan on raising the rpm up to about 6500-6800 and throw some more agressive numbers in the timing and fuel and I think I'll be right there. Thanks for the props guys, I will post up some more better pictures when my head comes back from Performance Porting, thanks to Dustin.

[PPorting]

[xohcef-t]

Thanks Dustin I appreciate you doing all the work for me. I'll be up at pfi tomorrow I'll give you a ring when I get up there. Where are we at about 80% done? You should bring it with you.

I've had my head back from Performance Porting for a while now just haven't had to much time to post pics or update the thread. I will try to get some new pics up of the head and intake manifold asap. Big thanks to Dustin at PP for his time and help with everything!

 

[xohcef-t]

Well heres some pictures of some new things/parts some old some new but here ya go. Some updates also, I blew up my ball bearing gt30 due to some bullshit bolts. So I have my first race test and tune of the year this next Friday and I gotta get a t3-t4 adapter and I'm borrowing a buddies t4 60-1, I also have to get this thing tuned all within the next 6 days. The vtec head below will not be on the set-up that gets tuned because sadly like other Americans income has grown short Updates will follow quickly over the next week so stay tuned.

I just took a couple of hours to solder up some old connections, relocate the fusebox and harness connectors inside the car. Looks a million times better.

Chillin in it's home, don't come look for it. Protected by a whole F'n arsenal

The work done on my head by Dustin at Performance Porting. Full race port and polish and then some on the head, and a port matched y8 intake manifold.

Slicks

 

[slowcivic E G]

what kind of wheels were those? offset? are you using extended studs and spacers?

 

[Genuine Rolla]

Still pretty sick

 

[Ej1_sleeper]

damnnnn very nice build man, cant wait to see the numbers with that beautiful head!

 

[xohcef-t]

They are aero wheels, I got them from a fellow d-series guy here in CO. He just told me last friday that they are actually dirt track wheels +2" offset. No spacers/extended studs needed!

Still pretty sick

Thanks again

damnnnn very nice build man, cant wait to see the numbers with that beautiful head!

We actually crammed me in on the dyno last Thursday night only made about 4 pulls since it was 11pm by the time I got on the dyddno my hondata ended up being bad so we had to start from a scratch map and something was wrong. At 20 psi it made like 280hp and 270ft/lbs. I ran a couple of 12.8's on 13psi and ended up breaking the s**t outta the diffy with the new slicks comin outta the water box. Will keep you guys posted on more numbers and parts as they go on.

 

[xohcef-t]

The turbo that was lent to me after I trashed mine and the t3-t4 adapter plate. Thank you Brent Leivestad.

new fuel rail and regulator so I wont run outta fuel this time.

The carnage of the waterbox lol

 

[ej2rey]

Yikes! That is some carnage.
Turbo is looking beefy tho.

 

[Dan.]

i think i have your wheels,the older integra ones.

Yep I cant wait to get my Hondata back and actually get a good tune on it.

I actually got rid of mine, wish I didn't though they are some good lookin wheels!
