Ah spring has come to the city. I have a week off starting this friday and I will be doing a full 5 lug swap and alot more. So If you have some time and want to turn some wrenches or crack jokes about Hondas shoot me a pm and come help out a fellow rotorhead. BYOB or whatever I don't care. Plus there's gonna be some leftover stuff for sale.

 

takes an hour, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm wrenches and sockets.. preferably an impact. bottle of brake fluid and some penetrating oil (pb blaster etc.) :P ill give ya a hand friday night or somethin after i get out of work if you want

 

Cool. C'mon on down. I might have worded that first post wrong....there will be alot of parts being swapped.....

 

Too bad this weekend i'm going to be gone... Whatcha going to be doing?

 

It's going to be going on all week. The week-end is just the start of this maintenance marathon. Swapping everything from the flywheel back. Lots of wiring including battery relocation. Interior swap, pretty much everything except the dash. And if I get around to it swap the front suspension....in a nutshell making an na into a T2. Lots of fun.

 

PM me a p hone # and address etc. I got a wideband o2 if yer interested lol. aem UEGO, probably needs a new sensor tho but ill let it go in trade mebbe lol

 

pm sent....

I think I have an aem uego....somewhere....

 

well shitm, gimme yer sensor LOL mines hosed. need any tools or anything? if you got a compressor this would go MUCH faster :>

 

I don't think I need any tools. I did an engine swap a little bit ago so I have alot of tools layin around. I've got a pretty good little compressor, it takes flywheel nuts off so it's good enough for me.

Might need another set of jackstands tho....

 

Hmm if you still need some hands i'll be free wednesday on.

 

alright ill bring some jackstands and some air tools so we can rip thru this. hell ill bring a goody bag of tools as to expedite this process

 

I'm sure they'll be something to do on wednesday....There'e always something that can be fixed or replaced.

You sound like you're on a mission boosted...I got not problem with that. Maybe we can set some kind of swap record....

 

i think i hold the swap record, complete na-t2 in 10 hours :P

 

I should be getting started this morning around 10. Might even drag the heater out since it looks chilly.

 

If it spills into sunday I may be able to come out, sounds like you are getting some good help though. Put up the full list of what your swapping so I can see if its in the scope of **** I have done before.

 

Lets see stuff left;
install trans
intall driveshaft
swap dash
swap interior
relocate battery to bin
swap front suspension (if i find new struts)
swap sunroof
swap hatch
swap headlight motors

there's a little more but I can't remember since I'm not in the garage right now. Still lots of stuff to do.

 

how bad are your rear rotors? (4 lug)

 

pretty chewed up. they were beat on for some time it looks like.

 

How's the project going?

 

we should have a mini rx7 meet/hangout

 

I agree. Rotorheads should meet more often.

As for the swap it's all pretty much done. I didn't do the front yet since I need new shocks. Here's the new hotness as boosted would say...

 

looks good. its funny cuz the front wheel looks like the temp spare...but its the factory 14" wheel.
I'm down for a chicago meet

 

^^ Is that the pilsbury dough boy by the muffler?

Delicious!!

 

dont be talkin smack about the new hotness

 

The doughboy goes where I go....

I'm always down for a local meet even if it's just to bullshit.

I got some duals put on it now and it sounds like a rotary now.
