OFFICIAL BigDare's Build-up Thread!!!

[bigdare23]

Um, the sidewall is larger with 205/50-15 tires. The correct size for an EF with 15's is 195/50-15, so there's nothing wrong with Dare's setup.

Quoted for truth

[JDMJAYDC2]

idk maybe its just me i liked the way my teg looked on the 205's better but im not gonna whore up dare's thread keep the jdm goodies coming mr stunnin on em man

[KevinT707]

I suppose yall are right about the sidewall being higher on the 205/50/15 than 195/50/15 but I still don't like 195s though. And yes I am use to riding on low profile, the 205/40/16 (Dunlop Direzza DZ101) on my wheels now have a low sidewall.

Darryl, just be ready to race whenever I call you for the numerous track events coming up in the next few months. I'm pretty sure I'm not doing the SE Drag Day but I'm almost positive I'm doing the Nopi NHRA drag event at Commerce March 29/30.

Thanks homie, I was up there meeting up with one of CRX homies from out of town. I would of holla at ya and EmminoDaGreat but I had to hurry up and get back to studying for some exams. School FTL


(it was a pretty good showing at the Accord/Prelude Meet)

[bigdare23]

Well, I been working on the hatch for the past two weeks. At first, I thought the car may have a blown head gasket because it was driven hot, but I forgot about Honda's reliabilty . So I checked the car out and BAM found the problem. The radiator was crack where the cap goes. Also the radiator cap wasn't setting properly, so I replaced those parts. Next, I notice that oil was all over the bay, then I looked at the valve cover and the gasket wasnt properly set. So I replaced that and problem solved. Afterwards, I went to crank it....no power. Now, I'm pissed cuz it was about 11pm. So Guy and I went to Walmart and picked up a cheap battery. I throw that in and car had power, but it wouldn't turnover. DAMN!!!! So I checked the ecu and it showed code 16 which is the injector code. BINGO main relay. So I came back yesterday and installed a brand new main relay and the car started with no problem


Now, the only things left to do is bleed the brakes (it has no brakes what-so-ever, that's a post in it's self ), replace some hoses, and it would be driven to my apartment by the end of the weekend.


Also, the people that want parts off of the car. I have the following for sell (cheap)

-front bumper (has a few scuffs and a small cut near the driver bumper lens)
-filler piece (mint)
-rear bumper (mint)
-hood (mint)
-headlights (driver side has a small hole)
-fenders (passenger side is bent but easy fix)

If you are interested LMK because I need to get rid of this stuff asap. I'm also willing to trade off parts for *new* (not used) cooling hoses LOL (no lie). So if you are interested in those parts, goto autozone, oreilly's, and/or advance and buy me some damn cooling lines!!!!

[Papa_Smurf]

you know i got dibs on that hood dare, LMK when i can come get that ish!

[bigdare23]

I just installed a HF front sway bar today on the REX. It's smaller in diameter and should cause some understeer (similar to a larger rear sway bar).


So, I have a Si/DX front sway bar (with new bushing) up for grabs now LOL

[kuniEF]

GOOD S**T DOGGIE. DID YOU EVER GET THOSE BUMPER LIGHTS HOMIE?

[Whiteboy™]

ghey

Actually, D, the HF bar would cause less understeer than the Si front bar. A common set up for our cars is the HF front bar with a Si rear bar to get the car to rotate better. Some people will even run no front bar with the Si rear.
