abunai civic (present)

I bought a used valve cover cleaned and welded two -12AN fittings.
This mod will help with the ventilation of the engine at high rpms
the extra small holes that i opened to the baffling of the valve cover helps with venting too.
Determing the color was hard but i finally went with a classic vivid red color.
Some carbon vinil sticker to the spark plug cover will make things look better
gonna fit this later...

that's happen on my way home from work ...
a drunk b#ch came of nowhere and never stopped to his stop sign
thanks god i had a fast reaction or things could be worse.

 

[abunai888]

a good friend gave me a drivers door for free and another one took all the hard work prepairing the car for the paint.

 

[abunai888]

finally after 2 weeks of waiting the car was ready !
the color is from the ek9 championship white code nh-0.
added some red badges and tegiwa type r stickers on sides.

 

[abunai888]

first thing after i got back the car was to replace the valvespring retainers
a critical part that can fail and most owners ignore.
i know at least 5 cars that had destroyed engines or their cylinderheads due to a broken retainer.

since my engine had over 100.000km that was a must to do !

also desided to relpace LMA's with newer spring type.
a vtec filter was an easy task at the end of the day...

collected most parts from honda a euroexport spring compressor and a 10mm wrench that i bended to help me with the valve lash adjustment.

thanks man
since you will remove cams deff go for it !
retainers are cheap motor insurance.
just give a look at s2000 forums the weak point on these high revving motors are the retainers.

i was planning to use an rfm copy header since this header hits on oem fan i bought a used spal one for cheap.
then made a shroud i used ugly bolts instead of rivets but later i'm gonna fix a better one.

sold the j's racing intake so i can buy a chipped p28 ecu and a convertion harness from hammotosports.
then made a new intake using a 3,5'' - 89mm pipe,a vibrant velocity stack,aem dryflow filter,dei gold heat reflect tape and some silicon couplers.
the new intake performed better at top end and was simmilar as the j's at mid range.
also total cost for the custom intake was lot cheaper than the j's racing.
but anyway i ended spending more money on parts lol

 

[abunai888]

more parts
autoban88 radiator hoses (they wont last long ,they will leak total crap)
b&m fuel pressure gauge ( it will rust in a few years,bad readings total crap)
usdm itr throttle cable and bracket oem honda.
outlaw thermogasket kit for the throttle body and the intake mani (great item better than hondata)
ASH radiator hose adaptor for the water themp gauge i'm gonna fit in the future.

[abunai888]

bought a set of front and rear tie bars from ebay
first installed the rear one this made the rear end feel so rigid and front end feel like jelly lol
everything balanced when front tie bar fitted

 

[abunai888]

removed the intake manifold cleaned it,tb and all sensors like iacv etc was cleaned too.
then fitted the vented valve cover and removed the allen plugs from the back of the engine moving them to a better catch tank for even better breathing !

 

[abunai888]

a hard work almost 1 wole week on the car for all parts to install well most of them...
power steering removed the result was a bit faster revving and -6kg from the car
also hasport EKSTK motor mounts installed !

a good friend lost his b20 vtec so i bought from him his full exhaust .
rmf 4-1 replica header & 70mm exhaust with fake cat cel.

gave all parts a good clean & polish then
i used a dremel to clean the ugly welds off the header and maybe make it to perform better.

rmf header had bad ground clearance and exhaust had some metal bits and oil from the broken b20 we realised that when started it at my car for first time lol
