Blasphemy!! /s That looks like a pan pacific part number/any idea where it came from?

I didn't think of that! Part number would be handy thanks xoxo

I've got a few at the lockup somewhere buried but Lockdown means I can't get there

Overnight parts from rock auto. The shuttle started intermittently missing, I did plugs cap leads etc a while ago. Only thing I didn't replace was the coil so ordered another. Pull everything out and make sure its precariously positioned carefully put the screws in the box so you dont loose them. Then knock everything on the ground One screw escaped the box new coil in and we'll have to wait for our next big outing to the shop to see if it still misses - It was super intermittent and only really missed at idle in traffic so time will tell Ive been wanting some oe style tips for the churbo one and they were cheap enough and shipping wasn't any more so I grabbed a couple at the same time as the coil as it cost no extra for the shipping I've been reading up on trubo manifold runner sizes and come to the conclusion that the piping size I ordered is the right size afterall, Had all sorts of barry ideas as to how I'd match the pipe up to the oval header flange. Found sinco make reducers so ordered a set and they arrived - They'll be close enough and I can weld/die grind the rest

Nice Is it out of a accord or a integra/civic ? Accords have biiig oil pumps with balance shafts and early civic/integra have smaller oil pumps/possibly steel pans

I think I orderd this kit. First Lockdown. Due to covid shipping it only arrived November last year. I better slow down finishing (getting a project operational) in less than a year!

Lighting is a bit bright for me There are four options. Red, blue, seconds flashing, or off The middle tube was displaying the line symbol initially but isn't now, might be a dodgy solder joint as the pins were all corroded. Will investigate tomorrow

More progress Had to resort to the fat solder as that's all I had in the toolbox in the car. Fitted knobs and standoffs

The fan in the beagle only working on full speed was getting annoying. The correct blower resistor is nla everywhere, I've been looking for years. Was sharing to my uncle a while ago and he gave me some high power resistors Twist tape AND soldered them in Unceremoniously shoved in Auto speed control even works now. What luxury having multiple fan speeds

Yeah they unbolt easy Can get them ex pick a part for not much, nothing too much goes wrong with them so would be worth a gamble imo

The shaft on the right of the first pic is the half shaft for the CV's/cv shafts. They are a relatively tall engine. Make sure you get the non povo spec motors (either type R or the ones with the red I-vtec. The others basically run 12v mode down low and then switch to 16v up high. I'm saying that even the povo 160 hp spec will still go really well. Rwd you'll need to fabricate a intake manifold and the water outlets on the head etc etc generally the motors are the cheap part of the swap

Honda k series Injectors Overall length about 65mm Bottom o ring to base of fuel rail about 50mm

so after this clock kit gathering dust after a year and a bit I've made a start

What length do the injectors need to be? I have some honduh ones which look to be shorter and may work

Or aeromotive do their phantom systems if you are feeling super wealthy https://www.speedscience.co.nz/products/aeromotive-efi-returnless-phantom

Radio refitted, fan down button still doesn't work so switch itself is fucked. Cbf fixing it so I'll get another radio and this can go to the wagon. The beagle decided it wanted to weep coolant out of the drain plug after. Lucky I'm a hoarder and kept the one out of the wagon for reasons. Swapped it and and all fixed Fitted the heated mirrors on the daily. I had hoped that the looms would be the same but they aren't. Luckily I grabbed a bit of loom when I got the mirrors. They just need a extra wire for the heater. I'll trace/run it in the future but I've repinned the plug for now

I was mega restless today so finally pulled the radio out of daily. Its had sticky buttons since I fitted the nz new radio. Exploded it into a million pieces Scored some heated mirrors from zebra so wanted the button to match. No of course it wouldn't be that easy Cleaned the human slime/mysterious brown smoo out of the buttons and pit everything back together fingers crossed it still works/the fan control buttons actually work now

So battery life is about 4 days. I've been using it all day when I've been home and it hit the low battery cutout today. Tried charging it and realised I had wired the plug wrong Had to twist tape and barry everything together as I have next to no tools at home and everything is in the lockup Charges now

Remeberd I left the cooked mounts out of the wagon in the garden when I ran over them today. Pretty safe to say they are fucked

We can get decent freight through work and I've been thinking about grabbing some rolls when I redo the Honda loom

Could the random miss be fuel supply issues due to the the burnt fuse holder? Going back down to idle let's pressie build back up? Do you have logging of fuel pressure when it's playing up?

Wanged my amp into a wooden box and hooked up a alix battery controller to a laptop battery pack- Its been cranking away all day, Will have to see how long it lasts https://imgur.com/iOFHUaV

Aliexpress recommended some rice for me. I was $17 curious so have it a whirl

That's enough productivity for the week Both front lower arms and front shocks replaced with new (to the car) parts. Changed engine and gearbag oils. New (to the car again) zebra radiator and thermostat. Rads in. I thought it was sitting lower than it should, its the same size as what came out Hmmm Hmmm That might just do it... Reused moubts and called it good. Wanged some rad flush in and replaced the rear wheel bearings and parking brake hardware It's a million times easier to fuck around with the drums with the hub/bearing assembly out of the way Rock autod the brake stuff. Landed pads, parking brake shoes and two wheel bearing/hub assemblies for the price of one bearing/hub assembly here. Doesn't get hot, the fans cycle and do what they should and the 'noisy tyres' are fixed with new wheel bearings. Wof shop can fit the tyres when they do the wof

That'll do it Didn't think I did it up that tight Had another second hand sump in stock and some honda bond
