yeah thats right. Hey chaos, want a 90-91 spec Si cluster? I can't stand seeing those stupid freaking dx and std clusters in anyones cars
nah...i love the tach i got now...and if i got another cluster i would have to take it out....bc 2 tachs would be pointless lol

how do you drive your car in the corners? are you aggressive at all?

the reason i ask is because if you are aggressive cornering at all, i would definately suggest some kind of hold down for that battery. if that thing flips over and spills or grounds itself out you are looking at a LOT of serious problems. Battery Acid never goes away, and fires arent always easy to put out on the side of the road. Grounding the battery out for a couple seconds can fry your entire harness....everything.

just drill some 1/4" holes, get some 1/4" all-thread, some 1/4-20 nuts and a hold down. don't use anything conductive for the hold down without an insulator. the battery could slide and ground itself out that way too.
nah im not aggressive on corners at all....im only crazy on straight aways.....but yea i plan on strapping it down....just gotta give me some time :lol:

plus those pics were taken with the seat all the way forward.....when the seat is scooted back all the way theres no way the battery is going anywhere

Nah, that other tach is kinda "tacky" really. (no pun intended) lol but it isnt all that bad really. I used to run one, till i realized that people wanted to steal it from me lol so I sold it and used the money i got for a CRX si cluster. I have been happy ever since.

heres the stock dohc zc when i first bought the car 4 yrs ago ....


wanted to make it look better so i added some red s**t and ebay intake -= RICEY STAGE =- ....


threw a rod thru the block and rad so i bought another dohc zc motor -= UGLY STAGE =-....


cleaned up a lil bit


painted valve cover black


painted the block, head, and intake mani chrome to make it look clean lol


changed out intake pipe with a black one


went crazy with black paint lol


spun a bearing, i think bc it was a ebay motor, when i tore it apart it was NASTY!....then i built another dohc zc with bigger rods and forged pistons ...


and now with the wire tuck ....

Looks great, man that's too much work for my, plus I would probably jack up something.
Wiring has always scared me for some reason.
I would get a new coated header and I think it would set it off nice, also I think if the valve cover was red to match your wheels it would look very nice.

Respect bro!!

lol yeah I like the "paint gone crazy" stage of this.....I used to go paint crazy too....everyday I wanted to paint something....but now I have barley enough money to buy parts.....after getting an infected tooth pulled I havent worked in 2 days, and I might have to take one last day off.....kinda sucks

haha i loved to paint s**t as well....anything i could think of to paint i would :lol:

luckily ive gotten outta that stage....i wouldnt mind getting a ramhorn manifold though instead of the HF mani....and im going to redo my valve cover again .....just need to think of what color to go with....any suggestions ???

im also gonna redo the charge pipe that goes to the throttle body....instead of the white curvy one im gonna replace it with a straight intercooler pipe with the bov in the middle.....i have some ebay piping left over from the intercooler pipe kit....so now that i have the battery in the back i can do a lot more with the engine bay piping....plus the white pipe is getting old...

get it powder coated black
ramhorns are $$$, find a mini ram or a tubular log.

yea but i LOVE the look of the ramhorn....

cheap but looks good lol
Yeah they are cheap and do look good, but I bet it will last as long as the one I ordered. I hope to get a manifold from full race at some point...maybe this one from them, price is 1049 plus shipping

Contact Greg at Go-Autoworks.com. He makes great manifolds and are cheaper than that.
