    Default Little evolution with the DD civic

    Just playing around with my daily driven cx hatchback
    throw me the hates, throw me the loves. its the internet :boobies:


    getting ready to pull the fire puffing, 60 horse power, d15b8






    in with new motor. jdm d15b vtec




    little touch up after the swap was done


    semi wire tuck










    started playing with paint





    blew the jdm d15b, so down graded to a d15b7.
    not enough power, so on with the snail. how it sit today.







    pulls good and strong. should crack 14s with 8psi.

    Looks good. Run that oil feed line around the motor, relocate the battery, aluminum radiator/over flow tank, slim fan, and clean the over spray off the windshield wiper fluid tank.

    Seems like a lot, but it's really not at all. and it'll make your bay look fresherest.

    been too many times i've been disappointment by meets so i stop going to them. where is it at by chance?

    shit you can pass people better than me.. my slow ass 4 door with its d16y7 will probally get passed by a smart car
    haha, i just dont try. only if they are extremely under the speed limit

    Hows the d15b7 holding with boost? I just dropped in a jdm d15 saterday in my 94 hatch
    holds boost just fine. its stock other than arp head studs.
    i love the jdm d15b. i made 123 to the ground with ebay bolts on. ran 16.2 1/4 all motor and 2 teeth off timing. 14.9 with 50 shot nitrous.

    mmm <3 this civic. especially in the white snow picture

    In that case you should wait til the fall to start attending, bcuz during summer attendance is slim, but they're usually held tuesday nights @ 9pm, on the 3rd floor of the student center parking deck

    i had to stretch the front bumper because of the pipping. while driving, the plastic and screw on the side that hold the bumper on. came out from the fender and the tire rubbed the mount hole on the bumper so now ill have to get another bumper. but yes, i will be getting one soon.

    the intercooler dosnt slow you down your spool that much. i rather have it extra cooled then a split sec slower spool. its a t3/t4 turbo.
    im keeping the a/c lol. hard to get a hand on a good 100% working set. pulse its going back in when i put in bigger swap.

    I would go with a smaller IC if you're only running 8 psi, but that's just me.
