Project Honda Beater phase 1 complete! Daily driver (pics)
That's right....
The neon is my race-like car, but I needed a mostly stock, daily driver...soooo
Yes!
I picked up this 91 Civic STD for $100 bucks.
Then picked up a DISASSEMBLED B16A swap, with tranny, etc for $580
Honed it, put new bearings/rings in it, and sourced all necessary swap parts:
Civic Dx hubs $100 pair
91 Integra Axles $100 pair
B16 swap mounts (eBay) $120 shipped
Used Rotas $250
Ebay catback exhaust $250 shipped
Only thing is, I didn't replace the rear main seal, and now it's leaking like a SOB, into the bellhousing, and as a result the clutch slips like a ****, so I ordered an Exedy clutch, and will be replacing those this week. Yay! Cheap, Reliable, and pretty damn quick if I do say so myself...hah...
On with t3h picz!
Look at me Ma! Now I'm a Hawnduh boi....
