When will your project be done?

[HondaFan81]

My goal is driveable by summer and to enjoy it before winter. Valvetrain, intake manifold and crankcase ventilation system tweaking, then dyno tuning is what is left. Been working on other people's cars lately, have to dedicate time to myself and this project.

WOW. Read all 34 pages. Sounds to me you don't want to lose that fight. I wouldn't want to lose all that money either. I would rather enjoy it. Keep it up man. With all this technical knowlege your brain has consumed on this build. Have you considered tuning yourself? but, understandable you are always on a time crunch.

Stay focused on your mission.

[HondaFan81]

I am focused on getting engine driveability consistent before this winter and accumulate some mileage on this vehicle. I'm trying to eliminate any tuning concerns this time around. I'll update as tasks are completed.

The fact that you are able to keep this going after getting recently married gives me hope

[HondaFan81]

Honestly, the only reason I'm near completion is because I was around 85% complete before I was married. I could have started this project afterwards, but it would have taken far longer.

I know the past 2 years the project has been dragged out, well that is basically due to being married and other priorities coming up. I have less time to dedicate to this project, but I'm not giving up and simply have to work that much harder. I have to push myself to work on it, even when I get home from work and have "home duties" to do. Just keep pushing with any break I have.

Lately, I've had a real itch to drive this car again. It handled so well and I really enjoyed daily driving it and flinging it around corners, on/off ramps. Comparing this car to newer sedans, I can appreciate that it is lighter, can handle well when modified properly and has decent power to weight ratio. Most newer sedans are now are 4,000+ lbs.

Hey man. Been meaning to call you back. I have been soo busy and everytime you have called, I have been at work, and then forget to ring back.

Hope to hear about this being on the road again soon.

Oh Cisco how you inspire me. I just read all 33 pages straight through and it is now almost five in the am and currently only three degrees outside. but it just makes me want to go out and mock up the exhaust and finish the rear disc swap on your old red coupe. I know like every one else that this is going to be a one of a kind build.

Ot. Honda tuning recently had a cb3 grace its pages and its absolute rubbish compared to your cb7.

I know man I read every page on the white and the red project. He was a great member, the he got married. That usually ends every tuner except like 4% of tuners have women that support their money pit.

[Joey GT-R]

I disagree with that. It is not that tuners' significant others don't support their hobbies, but that they can no longer afford the investment, financially and in regards to time. When you now generally have a larger dwelling, extra upkeep bills, eventually more mouths to feed that's a lot more responsibility. Suddenly that extra couple hundred bucks and 10 or so hours a week gets eaten up pretty quickly.

There is a decent amount of members on this forum who do have families and are successful enough to that they can and do have multiple projects going on and the same time as well as families they tend to.

[HondaFan81]

It's more about having the time towards this project, than money. When I do have time, it usually involves working on our DD cars or a family member's car. Need to make time for myself.
