      I'm really digging the Teggy and all the work you've put in to both cars. Keep us updated.

        Thanks guys

        Bought the DC2 home from work finally and is back in its garage / home in hibernation for winter.

        Picked up the snail / manifold / WG for the DC2's new engine too



        Had my IACV adaptor turn up from Rosko racing



        Also got a steal on a full exhaust off a CD6 which consisted of Mugen headers, and a Tanabe G medallion rear muffler, Along with a custom shitty midpipe.

        The headers will get need to be polished before I use them on the H22A I'm building for the car, But I thought in the meantime I would put the muffler on. Needed slight modification but I've made it so it bolted up to the stock midpipe so if I want to I can change back to the stock rear muffler




        As soon as I started it, I knew it was exactly how I wanted it to sound. Subtle, but with a noticable burble, Whilst at cruising speed, Can hardly even tell it is there - Perfect for the daily.

        Heres a short video, Don't mind the fact the car is filthy :P

          Bit of an update now, A friend of mine polished up my muffler for me whilst I did some work on his B20V EJ1, It came up great!







          And tonight I went and saw my engine builder and picked up my shortblock Has been acid dipped, honed, new genuine honda rings, new bearings, crank/rods/pistons have all been acid dipped, crank has been polished. Can't wait to get this thing finished!

              Thanks

              Bit of an update, just going to copy/paste from my build thread over on nzhondas :P

              I took it to work, put it on an engine stand and proceeded to put on all the bits I've had laying around for a while now, oil cooler, water pipe, oil pump, pickup / sump etc.






              So the details of the bottom end are:

              H22A blacktop closed deck
              Acid dipped block, crank, rods, pistons.
              Honed
              New genuine rings
              New big end and main bearings, new thrust washers
              All O-rings on the oil pump replaced
              New front and rear crank seals
              New front balance shaft seal
              New sump gasket
              Euro R oil pump pickup
              Euro R sump
              New water pipe O-rings


              I went with the Euro R sump over the blacktop sump as its a little larger, maybe 500ml - 1l larger. The extra oil capacity will help with lubrication, oil temps etc.

              Did a service on the CB last week, Gave me a chance to have a look to see if it has developed any oil leaks and such, None bar a slight drip from what I assume is the cam seal (Not doing it as H series should be done soon hopefully)




              Managed to get a hell of a steal on some BC golds out of a CD accord from strongs last week, So bought them and put them in the CB.




              After fiddling around with the ride height for a while I found a happy median. Wheel centers to guards measure in about 325mm front and 330mm rear. puts the jack points on the sills about 115mm off the ground.





              Before photos of height for reference!




              Picked up my head from being machined, All valve seats have been cut, all valves have been refaced and the head has been refaced too. Ready for me to reasemble with the new valve stem seals, Then can bolt the head onto the block, exciting progress!





              After work tonight I reassembled the head, with new genuine valve stem seals, And bolted it back to the block using a new genuine euro r head gasket, and euro r headbolts (multi point vs single hex blacktop bolts). Will reassemble rocker assemblies, install the cams and set valve clearances tomorrow night / on the weekend





              Can't wait to get this thing in the CB

              Have been looking for wheel options but its quite hard to find a particular set of wheels here, in the spec i want, in 4x114. So am currently looking into doing a 5 stud swap on it, Will open up wheel options alot more to me, get rid of the hub over rotor front end, and look alot sweeter

              Was reading info from this thread, looks like it will be quite easy to do

                  The new ride height looks great! I always thought these cars look best when the tire JUST fills the wheel well.
                  I'm glad to see you're still going with it!

                    This is exactly how it's done .. man! I think I'm more exited to see this project through ...
                    Awesome stuff man ..

                      Thanks guys!

                      Not much to add, Valve clearances are done, New thermostat housing o-ring (where it bolts to head) installed, and new front water neck o-ring installed after giving them a good scrub. Getting there




                      Quick question about using the euro r manifold, If I get the throttle cable adaptor from rosko racing, which throttle cable should i use in my car? still using the auto pedal and cable, Will an auto BB1/4 H22A throttle cable work with the euro r manifold and RR throttle cable adaptor? Don't want to have to change pedal if I can get away with it

                      Thanks!

                        Bit more of an update

                        After sealing down all the end caps, I installed some new cam seals



                        Installed a new blox polished cam end plug



                        Installed the OBD1 H22A distributor with a new o-ring



                        Modified the Euro R throttle cable bracket so it would suit my stock F22Z throttle cable



                        And got a new cambelt, tensioner and balance shaft belt



                        Random photo of it



                        All parts I use are genuine BTW

                          Massive thanks to a local NZHondas member for giving me a set of spark plug leads and a prelude power steering pump and bracket to use! I'll have the last pieces of the puzzle next week, yay!

                          Found a F23A crank pulley which is identical to my factory pulley, which means I can reuse my AC / Alt belt, And will just need a different P/S belt to suit



                          Mitchell started polishing my headers while I did some work on one of his cars :P



                          And bolted the lower half of the manifold on to see how it will fit, They tuck up nice and close to the sump so will give great ground and subframe clearance!




                          Compared to the stock lower half, its a little bit shorter, so for the meanwhile ill extend the mugen lower half so it matches up with my stock exhaust. early in january I'll get the 2.5" system made



                          Also got my P91 ecu back from another local NZHondas member who has loaded a basemap onto it so I can run the car in and get it to the dyno for a proper tune once the new exhaust is on

                          Not long to go now and am getting excited to having this run running in my car!

                            Awesome bro! who's doing the tune for you, and what software are you using?

                                Ended up going to pick a part on saturday afternoon, and got the P/S high pressure line off a BA8 prelude.

                                Also bought my vtec solenoid gasket and bolted that on, Found out the top gasket in the vtec solenoid is missing too so will have a new one here today for that.



                                The P/S pump before I rebuilt it



                                All the o-rings and the shaft seal



                                And after it was cleaned and rebuilt



                                And thanks to domanib18b / Markus for having an aluminium 10mm EGR blanking plate laser cut
