Nice build. Engine pics? I don't really like the grill, broadway mirror, and definitely not feelin the gauges. For all of that money invested in c2 gauges a mounting panel or something should have been used. It just looks unfinished and tacky the way it sits now, clean it up and you will probably get more points at shows (I'm assuming that is what you do).Also what is with the baby seat on the vent? lol.

the gauges have to go. i'll keep further criticism to myself.

Good luck getting that venom intake mani to work. And I sincerely hope you do not plan on using a throttle body made for the d16. It will not work. I fried my sensor ground inside my EMS trying to get it to work. I don't really want to explain all the tech details of why this happened, but trust me when I tell you, you need to use a d17 TB and IACV.

looks pretty good. but dont like the gauges...

hey. great set up. if you dont mind me asking, what did it cost to build your drive train. i really want to do a turbo set up on my 04, but want to get a realistic idea of what i would have to spend.
thanks

boostnut87

i am actually running a h22 style throttle body and i have not had any trouble wit it thus far

boostnut87

its because of the flash, even during teh day u cant see behind the guages and i actualy get alot of compliments on them so im a little suprised about every1 take on them, ima b building a nice structure for them nd fill it in maybe some fiberglass or wat not.......as far as grill goes i dunno wat gril ur refering to.....the broadway mirror helps me alot on the highway cuz i now have little to none when it comes 2 blindspots.....and teh baby recaro race seat was a joke but those have come out.....i didnt spend that much for the guages, my old sponsored helpd me out wit those.....nd yes it is a show car, but i do appreciate the cristism it only helps me out

boostnut87

as far as drive train goes, im still waitin on buying the quaife lsd i just havnt had the money to spare ive been building my bike, but tis summer it is a must and i also want 2 get soem axles from teh drive shaft shop.....that right there is 2gs for teh lsd nd axles.....as far as teh motor goes i didnt spend all that much bcuz i was close to teh shop owner at the time

Where are the Numbers? I smell bullshit all gauges and no go. Ha.
Let's see that dyno sheeet pal.

Or better yet let's race

Bwhahaha... Called out and shot down. The outside is a little ricey.. and I'm not feeling the gauges either, but good luck with the rest of the build. I hope you do get the venom intake and TB setup working. I was using a d16y8 mani and TB and the IACV fried something inside my EMS box, so I had to switch to the d17 TB and y8 mani.

nice is that 400whp i see. good ****. . See I wish I could do that as a DD. I just hit 200K, going to Giles to get tuned next month

betancivic2k4

hey man not that its my business but i would never sup up a d series. i just didnt bother with all that b.s. just put a k20. mines type r. better yet we should see who wins a lil race.

iTrader: (4)

You sir are a tool bag.

boostnut87

hahaha....how comes evry1 brings it 2 racing.....but on another note i do regret buildin my d17 somtimes cuz i kno i coulda gotten more power out of a k series, but then again havn a single cam 1.7 spankin ppl left nd right, then it feels good, lol but not 2 b 2 cocky i do have fun wit is cuz it deffs impresses ppl

How do you have fun if its a show car? Sweet build though I hope you keep it for a long time. Alot of guys on here build up their car only to sell it or part it out shortly after . How is the AEM EMS working out for you. I think only like 2 ppl on here got it to run functionally so maybe it's all about the tuner in the long run.

boostnut87

i do screw around wit it but cops down here are crackn down......as far as the ems i had trick engineering buil nd tune the car so it is about the tuner all day long.....my friend ran the ems in a rsx and the guy who tuned it screwd it up.....so deff do research if u want 2 get the ems....

I have a 02 civic ex d17a2, besides intake and exhaust the motor is stock. i wanted to do a t3/t4 kit and was wondering if im risking damage to my engine, a safe psi to run on until further engine upgrades, and some good upgrades. thanks

fiend

nice ride, my criticisms are pretty much all the same as everyone else's but overall it's a great build...im impressed. how did you do your trunk setup like that? when it comes to interior builds, i.e. subs and what-not, i don't know anything , hell i don't even know how to wire a stereo, lame, i know but i am no good with wiring, just confuses me real easily, who knows, maybe i just don't do it enough to really understand it

civicsrcool

nice car! i think you need to make the gauges flush with the dash though, it does look tacky the way they are set up. maybe a piece of sheet metal and have the gauges sit in them? i think it would look a lot cleaner if the rear trunk lid had no civic badge and if you had the cf trim piece as well. if your doin show you gotta get some nicer rims too some volk or something..

in addition to that, those are pretty high numbers for just a t3/t4 IMHO! nice. i cant figure out why your boost peaks at your redline and not earlier. you can probably get some more low end if your turbo was running smoother.

Hani?

civicsrcool

^^ his photobucket is haniboy. so i would guess its hani.

boostnut87

yup its hani lol, and as far as teh turbo goes, i am currently looking to sell my t3/t4 so i can get a more suitable turbo


and for the guages, i actually started my fiberglassing i am flush mounting teh guages thanks to evry1s input

boostnut87

my 1st turbo kit was one of teh old SF kits, but with that i ran mine at 9 psi and put down a noticeable difference and i ran it like that for about a yr...my muddy had teh same kit and he ran 8 psi, and we both beat on our cars and had no probs......wat sort of upgrades are u looking for.....any further questions check out Dezod, i made the mistake of buyn my old parts from another company, but now its all bout teh d17 gurus....

boostnut87

o and hey paul, i will be calling ya next week so i can get my new head gasket and teh vacum manifold.....and also the car will be at HIN this weekend, i had a nice carbon fiber dezod motorsports sticker made up for my car for HIN (my buddy baught a sticker machine), ill have pics this week 4 ya
