well made a new and very fun addition to the honda pack at my house!

guess ill start with the new car then a quick blurb about the others

its a 00 with 55k and it came with some extras
18 rpf1 with 225's all around they rub a bit but it doesnt bug me. RSR lowering springs, Competition Clutch stage 5 (way too much clutch i know), a fresh top but its the vinal window glass upgade soon

the plans
-MAINTANCE!!! oil chanve with PCX filter, MTF, mobil1 75-90 in the rear diff, magnetic drain plugs in the tranny and engine
-upgrade the "shortcomings" of the 00 oil jet banjo bolts, the rear diff (talk to puddydad), and some other little upgades here and their to just tighten up a car that has rattled loose over 12 years of rough NH roads

for the other car


91 CRX Si
d16 block stroked to 1.7L using a 05 civic crank pistons and rods, ported y7 head, 11.3:1 new bushings, eibach springs and koni's few other little mods but i wont bore you with the details



the turbo 4dr ex

too many mods to list really basics are vitara pistons, h beam rod and some boost I 100% fabricated the kit, built the engine, tuned the car every bolt was turned by me


ectune antilag works wonders

quick video of when i was breaking the engine in no vids of high boost pulls yet

any suggestions for some other things to do for the s2k to make it the best version of "stock" i would like to hear them until then ill keep scowering the boards for more little things to upgrade and improve

 

and welcome....

 

 

Thanks guys hope to have some fun times with the car

 

Welcome!!

If you are going to be diving into the engine for maintenance, you may want to consider upgrading to AP2 retainers. The retainers were one of the weak points of the AP1's. Often times if there was a mechanical over-rev, it would weaken the retainers. Later, even during non-agressive driving, the retainer(s) would fail leading to a costly repair. There are many threads on ths topic... do a search (too lazy to link )

I like the turbo civic and CRX. I used to have a 4th gen civic hatch so...

Based on your earlier cars' level of modding, I doubt you'll be able to stay stock for long

 

Trust me well before I bought the car I did my hw ap2 retainers, banjo bolts to keep the pistons happy, puddydad rear or maybe a Nissan swap whichever is cheaper I can do the fab no problem.

It will be a fun car for sure and yes it won't be stock for too long
Ap1 lip the angles were a little off and the lighting on the dslr-phone was a bit a miss but f@#k $ 500 cameras is what I'm getting at lol


JDM Honda mtf, JDM J's racing pcx oil filter, JDM Magnetic drain plugs for the tranny and engine, some uber bright JDM 4300k stock white HID since a stocker was burned out

That didn't last long haha

 

kn drop it I really like the design of the OEM airbox I feel like any mods would be for more noise I might gut another stock airbox if matty sells me his haha


5 sticker power!

drove the car a bit with the kn and compared to the black OEM one I pulled out the car drives much better!


threw in a fresh belt the OEM one looked good and it isn't work but I figure after 12 years why not?

thats all for now doing the fluids and HID's tomorrow
