Writeup? It's not that hard

You take stuff off, press out the old bushings, press in the new bushings (lubed up properly), and put stuff back on. Done!

 

lol

 

You said "lubed" hehe.

 

Right....Anyway I wish I had replaced the bushings BEFORE undercoating with POR-15. It's going to be a bit of a pain to have to clean out all the threads before the nuts can be removed. Didn't think of that at the time.

 

Still running an OEM suspension - odd for a guru like you Eibach pro-kit and AGX's will be hard to beat for a simple suspension upgrade.

 

I was actually looking at the AGXs w/ Racing Beat springs. I was in such a car recently and was very impressed.

Suspension was never on my mind much before as I was concentrating on other things.

 

i thought about agx's!! my oem suspension is shot. winter project

 

This was linked in the 1st gen section for you POR-15 work. Great write up on everything I read so far!

 

I have KYB AGXs with RB springs. Spectacular ride and handling. I also have new urithane suspension bushings and RB sway bars though too.

 

i have AGX's with racing beat springs and swaybars and it is lovely.

 

looks awesome, i love your attention to detail on everything. keep up the excellent work, definately an inspiration to us. imo.

 

do you know at all how that anodized paint is going to hold up to the heat and abrasion?

 

I'm hoping that it will hold up well. The can says it's good for 700 degrees or so.

I'm also hoping to post another update before the month is over. This one will blow some minds.

 

...... When Aaron explains that he's actually swapping over to a 4 cylinder Honda engine, with "V-TECH" written on the valve cover in sharpie.

 

Honda Insight drivetrain + transversly mounting in the back of an FC = oh so sweet.

 

now that i begun my 6 port turbo i understand the time and effort it takes to do such a big project. i couldnt even imagine a project your doing.............waiting for pictures.

 

What do you mean? Just doing a simple turbo setup like you're using is like a day project...

 

almost, considering i needed to buy all the stuff, read, never touched a turbo before, read some more,get out of work at 3, start on it, an hour later its pitch black out, no garage. i guess i started friday after work, and im so close to being done. hey sonic, what did you use to connect the turbo to the maf? also dont forget im a noob the boob,lol.

 

aaron cake is my hero.

your awesome, i hope to do this to my car some day.

 

mmmmmmmm.... . Electric motor for <2500 RPM paired with a rotary... . yummy.... I want it!

 

I just use a mandrel bend and some couplers usually, you can even use some of those generic intakes off of ebay if you wanted, it's just a pipe!

 

Now that I've done the hard work on the NA turbo thing and posted all the information on how to do it, the process of just turbocharging the NA should be pretty straightforward. I did all the legwork (except the manifold adapter, that was VtekEater) years ago, so all anyone else has to do is just copy what I did.

 

lol...same here

 

and that i thank you!!! ive been researching your web site forever and got info on this site so hopefully it should be fine. well i know it will be fine. i thought about using a rtek 1.7 tIIecu with the maf and boost pressure sensor since i know nobody close by that can tune a after market ecu a.k.a haltech or anything like that and then i can boost to about 10 or 11 psi next summer. for now im going with stock boost though. thanks to all that helped and i still wanna see pics aaron!!!

 

cool, thanks!! i was just curious as to what you use. autozone has a cheap intake pipe for a civic ill check out.
