no thanks, i eventually got one but it was actually my thottle bodie that was the fault. thanks anyway

hi guys, im looking for a electronic air idle control valve for my h22a engine, its the jap import engine. if anyone has one laid spare id snap it up (depending on price)

did have a power output day orginised but aparently if your car is lowered it'd struggle to get to it (theres a dirt track). guna try and find a local rolling road (with a good reputation) and try to orginise something.

hi people, aint been on for a couple of weeks, jus been really busy again. im still guna post a 'how to do' so other people can try, alternativley i can carry out the conversion if needed. ive just had the mugen race chip installed in my ecu, you cant see but i have a huge grin from ear to...

spool filter gasket mate, about £20 from the dealers, chances are its clogged up, undo the vtec solinoid (3 bolts) from th head, theres an o-ring style gasket with a metal gause. it'l be full of #!#!#!#!#!#!. makes a world of difference cos the oil pressure will have dropped. trust me i'd do...

its the gasket between the vtec solinoid and the heas, its held on with three 10mm bolts, its a simple diy job, its a routine maintnence thing but few people know about it and even less change it. its dealer part only but there is a jap shop selling them for the b series. its a rubber o ring...

oh i forgot, ive also put a chunky ground kit on aswel

thanks, does anyone know if the civic vtis discs fit a coupe? ive got the prelude calipers to bolt on and the vtis discs are the same diameter, just dont want to go ahead and get some to find they wont fit. ive just replaced the spool filter gasket on my civic, i highly recomend everybody does...

there not the start and finish times, when i 1st posted i only just got the donor car (i think) the whole conversion was done in around a month but as im self employed i could do it day and nite when needed. i could probably do one much quicker but i stripped out the engine bay to respray it as...

hi, sorry i aint been on for a while, ive been really busy. well my civics all done now, got it through an mot only needing a trye, brake pipe and a service!!! its been on the road now for nearly a month and used every day. im just slowly doin bits and pieces (performance) when i get time. got...

its nearly all done now, the sparky finished off the wiring on thursday nite, we sorted the power steering and got the batery in the boot. its going to an exhaust specialist to get the down pipe extended to mate up with the maniflod. i'd do it myself but i dont have stainless welding gear...

it runs!! we got it running tonight, not for long though cos theres still pipe work to finnish and a few other things but we had it running long enough to make sure everything was working ok. not be long now till its finnished.

i painted the rockercover yesterday, its honda le mans red, it was a nice colouc but i decided to ad a blue pearl and for sum reason it came out PINK!!!!!! lol. it looks really trippy though with all the pearl. its just pink!!! ill try and get a pic today in the sun

cheers fella's, i got the paint for the rocker cover today, its a honda red, aint sure of the name tho but its the closest i could get to the type r badge. its etch primed ready to final prep tomorow. the sparky's guna stop back on monday nite and do the wiring for me.

heres a few photos off my phone

aint been on my pc for a bit, been busy again. ive finished off the mounts, painted the engine bay, got the engine sat back in (for the final time i hope!!! lol) its pretty much all piped up now, got the power steering to finish off tomorrow, exhaust to mate up, then its over to the sparky to do...

try this, do a compression test on all 4 cylinders, make a note of each reading. repeat this process but pour a small amount of oil (a tea spoonish) down the bore before you check for the second time. if the readings go up then your piston rings are goosed, if it stays the same then it could be...

true, im also trying to make it look like the engine was meant to be in the car instead of just thrown in like most conversions. its taking alittle bit longer but it'll be worth it when its time to sell.

they were already on my coupe when i got it, the manifold is a japspeed but i aint sure about the make of the shifter. i want £45 for the pair

it takes me no time at all now lol! yeah i custom made all the mounts, i cut them from the donor car and re-fabricated them to suit the civic. ive since found a company in america that does a conversion mount kit for $500. the good thing is that mine didnt cost me a penny to make just time!

they were on my coupe but i dont need them anymore cos im doin a conversion. the shifter still has the rods attatched cos there was no play at all in the bushes.

all the engine mounts are in now and welded and the engine is sitting level, got to take the engine back out for what seems like the 100th time so i can prep and paint the engine bay. aint long to go now

hi, ive got a quickshift and a stainless manifold off a 99 coupe 1.6 single cam, not sure if its the same tho. £45

yeah mines a h22a, got the gear box mount sorted today, its ready to weld in tomorrow then its just the rear and front support to do. i went and got the paint today, its defo goin audi s3 white with a black bonnet, roof and tailgate now, no turning back!!!! does any one know of a big disc...

my drive shafts sit straight, if yours are at angles you'll probably end up poping the shafts out or damaging the driveshafts. if they are on angles, when you work the steering from side to side the driveshaft will be moving forwards and back ain they mite even touch the struts. sounds like...

im 25, i am a mechanic but i mostly do bodywork etc.. now, i rent a part of my dads garage from him for my own buisness, between us there aint much we cant do. cos i do the work myself i dont have to pay labour costs so it doesnt cost as much lol. ive decided to paint the coupe an icey white...

cheers mate, yeah i aint booked any work in so i can have some time to do it, i started doing the engine mounts today , hopefully i'll get them finished tomorrw and then i can fit the engine. im having sunday off cos im off to donny for the day. anyone here going?

ive had a couple of set backs the last few days (one of my dogs died:() so unfortunetly im guna miss my deadline for donny. the good news is the drive shafts got sent off at 8:00 am monday and were back by 4:00 pm the same day!!! hows that for service!!! they fit too!! my calculations were good...

had a problem yesterday, i tried to "cheat" and fit the whole leg assembelly off the accord on to the civic, it worked but i only had about 1mm clearence off the coilover and then i hit another problem, the stud pattern was different so my buddy club wheels wouldnt fit!!!! so after countless...

well its started, i aint got time to wait for the conversion harness so ive had a good friend (who is a excellent auto electrician) re-wire the harnesses so i can just fit and go, the drive shafts are a bit of a head ache but ive got one thing to try in the morning with the hubs or else im guna...

if you get one make sure its the rite 1 for your car, there all the same just set at different pressures. if you get one off another car you'll need a gauge and set it up. to set them up you need to know what pressure your engine is running at before you fit the boost valve. then fit your...
