so as said - had the car 4 years, spent all my money on it, not finished spendin money on it - on here to try get the info i need to get it mapped and also to show others and inspire/be inspired

this is loged from aroudn summer last year - iv got a full build thread on numerous other forums, i'll do that bit later!!

the engine is a B18C4, it was burning some oil so came off the road in Dec 2007 for engine rebuild, it came back on the road in early September 2008

iv now rebuilt the engine and installed ITR JDM pistons, had the head skimmed, crower stage 2 3/4 race cams, exedy clutch and fidanza flywheel, Y21 gearbox replaces the s9b and also has a Spoon 1.5 way LSD fitted. skunk2 pro-series dual valve springs and retainers, and skunk2 pro-series adjustable cam gears have also been fitted (all fitted in my back garden/driveway, check my build-up on Civicsportsclub.org, Hondatech.co.uk or Civclife.net for pics of the rebuild), have Hondata S200 and will be getting mapped very soon (dont know where to go yet though)

iv resprayed the engine bay to freshen it up a bit, fitted an ITR dual length rad, a nice Mugen twin-Loop exhaust system, ITR rear brakes with EBC grooved/dimpled discs and spoon pads. ITR master cylinder and bias-valve also fitted.

the front end was then resprayed (AGAIN), the back bumper painted and also had the rear-wiper hole and H badge from the tailgate smoothed off and painted. ek9 dials and an EP3 steering wheel have been the only additions to the interior so far

another new set of wheels in 15" Rays Split Rims, had the lips re-polished, the split bolts gold plated and the centres painted to colour code with the car

so without further delay - here are some pretty poor quality pics which iv taken with the digital camera - my mate took some but was a bit dark

YouTube - B18 Clover Green @ Knockhill 02/11/08 Speed Sunday

another vid from nearer pit lane - had to avoid an accident on the way round the lap lol

YouTube - B18 Clover Green Civic @ Knockhill 02/11/08 Speed Sunday (good quality)


all was well until the crower cams snapped and bent 4 valves :(

DSC00205.jpg


rebuilt the head and got it back together just last week with standard cams in, had it on a RR to see what the scandal is - its running way under power and the graph is all over the shot - needing mapped sooner rather than later

got a 2nd winter/track bumper with a VTI lip on - iv just fitted my Next Miracle X-Brace and still have a Safety21 7-Point Roll Cage to fit - pics of how she sits right now at this very minute

so im looking into getting a new set of cams ASAP, also trying to get Hondata S300 sourced and fitted (been told there a boy on here i need to speak to....Will.....) - also gonna get the ehadlights off again, resplit and seal them as there very condensated the now after sitting for a while.

Cheers - comments welcome

watched this car build since it was a little ej9 on the jordan forum.
Lots of effort and time spent on it.
Car looks great mate.
Hope to soon see you enjoy the car and stop building :nice:
 
you guys wait till you read the full build, its awesome to see where its come from! :D looking stunning as allwasy dude
 
Fair play m8, Great car realy like it as its not the Norm and you obvously love it to death.

Bet that cam made one hell of a noise lol.

Think it was Blinx's who said dont touch crower.

Have you raised the Redline on you B18 yet ? Coz i have the same motor and you pretty much done what i want to do. Just wondered coz i want a 9.5k redline and you have thr mods to do it new cams, valves, springs etc.
 
Looking very nice! Dont speak to anyone else but Will (aka Ek9Turbo) about getting your car tuned! Read Tim's, Jimbobek9's or Haribo's tune thread in the resource area and that will make your mind up straight away!
 
good looking car! Too bad with your crower cams. Did you sent a letter of complaint or anything?
 
Hello and welcome mate ,like i said on civiclife the man ya need to see about the s300 mapping is will aka ek9turbo ,he'll sort you out :nice:
 
cheers for the comments guys cheers

had a look at his technical threads, impressive stuff - iv sent him a PM so we can chat a bit more about getting the car down for setting up, his work looks spot on and very good stuff, safe but with alot of power and the right things happening at the right places - very complicated to understand but spent most of this morning tryin to figure it out lol

will hopefully be up crail april 19th, whether car will be running mapped by then im not sure - see what Will can muster up and depends ong etting other parts in etc (need a mugen airbox and a way of fitting it)

cheers again for comments

Steve
