nice yo
i hope you broke that motor in b4 you hit boost .... did you ???
93 sol Si
95 sol S

I've had mixed advice on how to break it in so I started off slow and made sure everything was good and started driving it like I will normal just easy and not boosting much if at all.
Only problem so far is the 3 front bolts that hold the VC on are striped and leaking oil. Not much but its still a leak and the only leak.
damn i love how u put the teg cluster in there
nice mang!!
Not going to lie it was a bit challenging. None of the write ups I found were right.Originally Posted by dabuilding

Found a pin out for the 94 integra that told me witch pin on each plug did. Then found a pin out chart for the 90-91 CRX and matched them up. The hard part was the VSS(vehicle speed sensor) its electric on the 94 integra. I wires it up and it started smoking. I ended up using the speedo from a CRX cluster for the pulser and wired it up between the integra cluster and the wire drive on the transmission. I wish I had done it that way to start off with I would have saved myself $30.
Mike, it is looking great. You have put so much hard work into this and it definitely shows. What's next?

First thing I need to do is fix the valve cover bolts and get the oil leak fixed.
Then the next is to get it retuned at 15psi. That are some wheels.

yep its on honda-tech also.
Be sure and get us a video of outside car action. Maybe a few 2nd and 3rd gear pulls. Oh, and how much boost are you planning on running with the new setup? I'm sure you've stated it in previous post but I must have over looked it.

^^^ i think he said 15 psi
15psi or what ever my 450cc injectors can handle safely.
come do the ls cluster swap for me. im too lazy
I'm never doing a cluster swap again.
Took a pic at the Gainesville meet tonight. Well I took 10 photos and this is the only one that didn't blur or wasn't to dark.

I love you. lol, car is sooo nice man, how long has ur build taken?
almost 4 years now I think.
Well sh!t... I pulled the turbo off my car and put the stock header on and guess what??? No smoke at idle. I let the temp come up and still no smoke.
The oil drain on the turbo is soaked so that leads me to believe the drain collapsed in the bend and caused the oil pressure to get to high for the turbo seals.
I still got to get it back together and drive it around to see if its the turbo for sure. But it looks like I'll be N/A for a while.

Damn, and you just got it back together and running. Sucks, man. Back to the drawing boards eh?! Haha.

Looks like I just need to rework the drain and get the turbo rebuilt. I got to put the cross member back on and drive it some but it was smoking at idle with the turbo on and with out it theirs no smoke so far.

Well I messed up last night. I lost it on a mountain run and messed up my car a bit. So far it looks to just me cosmetic and it could have be much worse.
Took a look at the crash site this morning. Last night the black marks were much better. But you can see how far I slid and how close I came to hitting a 4x4 post and a large concrete ditch.
I still haven't started repairing the car I just don't have the energy to mess with it right now just kind of pissed off at myself I guess. Its my first crash that I caused. I've been in 3 other crashes but I was hit from behind every time.
Heres the car.
Other than the pounds of grave in my fenders wells and the scratched up drivers side rim thats all I've found. I have to pull the bumper off to see if it got the intercooler but it was boosting fine after the crash.
It could of been a lot worse.
glad your ok bro
yea were good. I'm just glad we didn't hit the embankment or worse go off the opposite side of the the road and down the 200foot drop off.
that how my a4 bit the dust. a turn just like that up close to Suches, GA. Just glad to see you ok
