- Mon Nov 07, 2011 11:42 pm #280646 got everything but the header un-bolted/screwed/clamped. motor will be out tomorrow and I should have the other one in by the end of the week!

the only thing that worries me about the JDM motors is.. it has been a good 10+ years since its ran. keep your fingers crossed for me fellas, lets hope she fires right up!!!!

because of how close the Evo O2 housing is to the block, the manifold/turbo/downpipe have to all come out as one piece..


worlds longest civic downpipe

- Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:20 pm #280859 ^ engagement, chatter, life, much more abuse to my diff/axles.. and two of my buddies are having this issue..



watch the EK. once he put it on the 2-step to launch, the clutch very slightly starts grabbing without him letting off at all. this is not an adjustment/pedal height issue, it's the clutch, and it's not very old.

the old girl all stripped down..


JDM B18b now has the.. Intake mani, alternator, freeze plug adapters, oil plate and clutch/flywheel. Also did Timing belt/water pump and a new thermostat. All that's left is the dizzy. waiting to put the oil pan on till the motor is in

ready to go..



why does the rear t mount gotta be such a bitch!



Cranked the motor over quite a bit with the dizzy unhooked to get everything oiled up but.. couldn't get the oil light to go out. looked for leaks but didnt see any so i hooked up the dizzy. she fired right and the oil light instantly went out. let it run for a while trying to get the air out of the coolant but couldn't get it to "burp".. fan kicked on but it seemed like the thermostat wasn't opening. it's brand new but i've heard of them failing right out the box. the lower radiator hose stayed cold.. gonna try again tomorrow. gonna put my oil gauge on to see what's up with that too before she goes on the road.



motor did sound healthy though. gotta get all the bugs out and some miles on the new clutch before my dyno appointment on the 1st
