You can save money on not renting tools. do something like this to get the flywheel off and tightening it

 

 

Heh, thanks. I actually just used pink dremel grinding stones for the finish smoothing, not with sanding drums. The grit of the pink stones is pretty fine, and they are cheap. I probably spent about $10 on stones not counting the ineffective Tungsten carbide bit I tried.

 

Dude,

Whats holding your pallet racking up???


I didnt even address the bar in my tool list. I found a scrape piece of metal an just made it work.

 

I agree, those 12.00 bits suck. I just came into a air die grinder. Cant wait to let it rip. My dremel is toast.

 

That's the same jack I have... great jack. So you used a metal bar and pumped up your jack?

 

I think it's a great thread to ask my question. I have a s5 TII jspec engine with 90 psi on both rotors. Since the engine is out, I am rebuilding it. I guess there will be a lots of parts that will still be in clearance and size numbers. What are parts that must be change when you open the engine ?

Thanks

 

Only the gaskets and O rings have to be replaced, the balance are a function of money ( if in spec). On a tii its best to renew the apex seals. I personally like to replace every spring. While they might be in spec, they are the next weakest component.

 

oops. wrong forum. i probably just brought back a really old thread. sorry

 

for those who have rebuilt rotory's.. i have a question.. if i had one of those videos, and a manual. and i have about a 6-7 months of automotive training. ( so far biggest project was pretty much rebuilding a dodge daytona turbo engine) and i m pretty good at solving automotive problems on v type and inline type engines.. would that merit enough experiance to remove and rebuilt a rotory??,, i have alot of the tools needed to do this by what the previous post state.

also what is the time frame most people experiance in the rebuilding process? with ordering the right seals and what not., any info would be great because this is something im seriously looking into cuz i believe im getting a fc s5 for free it has a small engine problem . and i want to rebuld it to make it last.. so any help will be appreciated .. thanks mark

 

You could do it. I did my first one with little difficulty and all I rebuilt before it was a Honda B16 (Integra) engine. It took me about a week to disassemble / measure / reassemble everything for the 13B, not counting porting time.

 

I'm finding that most of the time spent in my rebuild is actually cleaning and inspecting the parts, getting it from the engine bay -fully hooked up- to an engine stand, then completely dissasembled took around 6 hours. (I think)

 

ok sounds like i can handle this .. now to find the lucky car ehehehhehe

 

I put some of the bolts back in the flywheel, longer than stock ones and used some large washers to hold the bar onto the flywheel. I used the jack as an illustration that you can use it instead of the concrete hump I have under my door.

 

Are you referring to you having a b16 in your integra? If your not, I dont think any integra's ever came from the factory with b16's in em'.... GO VTAC!!! hehehe

 

It was an older Integra and the engine block had B16 stamped on the dataplate. The bada$$ vtec that the honda kids like is the B18.

 

B18C5 that is.

 

how long would it take someone to rebuild a jspec they just got with no knowledge???

 

depends on mechanical apptitude and organization skills. If your a wiz at piston engines, using the rebuilding tape that is being sold, the FSM, Haynes manual and have a good understanding on how to use the measuring devices, i would say it would not take more than 5 hours longer than the everyday rebuilder. I taught my kid how to do one (he did every minute of labor including the front stack and end play measurement. It took about 5 hours longer than I do them in.

 

what will be the cost of a factory new rotary 13b 6 port engine with a street port? im talking all new parts, new housings, new rotors new shaft...

 

I took a few minutes to work up what it would cost in parts only to build a new NA 6port as if I was building a crate motor.

Here is the total:

And I am sure I missed a few things.

 

i cant open that file

 

need excel to open

 

well i dont have excel can ujust give me a price? lol

 

$5,720.62
