Good night in the garage last night. When i got the civic i also bought a set of vti rear trailing arms for £150. Ive put off doing them as its always a risk that youl snap bolts everywhere. So i got stuck in either way.
First up, rta bushes, did a wee exchange with @kanjabrer for the replacements as hes going full poly so i fired up the cut through anything saw and had the new bushes in and done in no joke 15 mins.
Excuse the discs, once the car is moving ill refresh the brakes fully.
Next up was pulling the old arms, i just chopped the flexis as ill get all new replacements next time i order bits. Shockingly the only casualty was a camber bolt which was easy access with a grinder to get it off.
i even managed to get the full handbrake in working order again so we are all gucci for a fat burnout when the time comes!
Ill need to add flexis onto the list along with upper and lower front balljoints so the car is decent enough all round for an alignment.
slowly but surely the vision is becoming a reality certainly a world away from the dc2 in every way so far
Also managed to get a replacement fuel pressure guage for the rail then ryan adjusted the regulator and wired up a fuel cut off switch on the dash under the big ass rev guage.
Next up i need to start on the cooling system, drive shafts and get rid of that awful ebay shifter as its absolutely terrible. I honestly cant see past the oem dc5/crv for a k swap.
(not me trying to convince you to come to the H Series lol) tbh the h2b is a waste of time imo, a full H is the way to go but back to the post at hand, loving the build bro, gonna get a new intake manifold cause i can assist if you still aquiring parts buddy.
