Friend helped me wrap the aluminum trim around my center console/radio...the silver was getting to me.

I converted my latest wagon to manual and f20b and the f20b had a bad oil pump and died.... replaced it with another motor from a new supply house (That I will never use again) and the h22 ran for 10 min and died..... replaced with my old blue cb7 that also used to belong to kottorak.... it ran for 2 days and choked at 3500 rpm going to work.... pulled that one and now I have a lightened fidanza flywheel, a new 6 puck sprung act clutch and unknown pressure plate that was from Gdout.... and picked up another h23vtec blue top PDE head.... Running smooth as butter.

The first swap and conversion was done at the same time we did Smokinspeeds car..... 2 manual swaps and engine swaps in 2 days. FUN TIMES.

Pix up soon.

Replaced the busted up clear corners on my CB7 sedan. Still gotta get the spacing right on my intercooler to fit the bumper lamps in tho. Total cooling system flush on my CB9 wagon, bunch of rusty water in it. Pulled the radiator, hoses, and thermostat out, flushed it all really good, and put it all back together. Drain and fill on the tranny, fluid was mud brown. Reinstalled the bumper lights, had to pull the bumper to get the dang wires back in place, and secured my alternator better so the belt will stop squealing. Took out the center console to run some wiring to make a fan switch, and put the console back in. I plan to try to drill out my empty slot where the fogs button would be and make it as stock looking as possible. Have the torque mount on the way, should be here by Tuesday or Wednesday, so I'll do that next weekend. My old wheels are one the way from South Carolina, and already have a set of coilovers ready to put on probably next weekend. Oh, and changed the oil in my wife's car while I was at it.

Yeah I have idle issue as well, haven't been able to find the cause yet. I need to install my bisi intake heat shield gasket and see if that might do it as I have cleaned iacv, checked and played with hoses, diff ecu etc nothing helping it.

I might be an option in the spring when it warms up again, if you want to be able to put in your own prep and buff tien to get a better than macco job without spending an arm and a leg..

Yeah, I'm not painting anything until after the H22A4 swap. But I still am working on the plan. The pewter color on my new trunk/spoiler looks kinda slick. The H22A4 is still sitting, just working on details. First off is a 2nd car, so I can drive while working on the swap.

Here are the parts in question:

[Smokinspeeds]

Changed ADR 17"s to JDM old school Sparcos.

AAAnd got a civic with an H23A Vtec. Goodies are going to come off the CB7 and then it will most likely be sold after it is painted and cleaned up.

Locals will get first dibs on the good stuff, I will be especially interested in stock trades + cash.
