1. springs with matt. going from neuspeed sport to eibach pro kit. my exhaust scrapes everywhere when i have 1 other person in the car.
1.5. raise shock plate in the back so the rear doesn't sag
2. upgrade busted endlinks when i do #1
3. install new subs (adire audio shivas), and build box.
4. install components (CDT HD-62's)
5. amp it all up
6. put in power steering as soon as i get a pressure hose for under the $190 majestic wants for it

Rep Power: 329

it sucks. parking can be a bear, let alone parallel parking. but street driving i get used to it for the most part.

when you corner fast, it's up to you to keep the wheel from going some other direction though. makes me drive slower.

safcII
greddy turbo timer
hayame 2.5 turbo cat-back

matt, can you explain alchy injection for me? thanks.

 
Rep Power: 511

sounds like we got pretty similar setups with the exception of fuel systems and bov's. one thing, if you get a MBC, make sure it is a good one cause if you gtet a cheap one you risk the chance of boost spikes and end up blowing your engine like that guy in the FI section.

as for alcohol injection, i dont know much about it besides that it add the extra fuel needed at higher boost to help the engine run better. most people setup alcohol injection to start around 9 psi.

 
Rep Power: 511

only thing i would change with your setup is the turbo. your gonna be spoolin around 4k RPM and that doesnt leave much time for boost between that and the redline. i have talked ot kevin and he says he regrets that his turbo spools so late. im opin mine to spool around 3300 rpm or so

Just little stuff to the Type S for now.

Revo SS
DCRH
Exhaust(Not sure what I'm going with yet)
Drop(not sure what I'm going with yet)

And I'm waiting it out to see what I'm going to do major wise. I still have not decided if I'm going to stay N/A or go F/I.

So either, Crower cams, Skunk2 springs and valves, K-pro, and 9K redline

Vs

JRSC or Comptech SC(When its released. Its in the works now) or Greddy Turbo kit or Cybernations Turbo Kit.

Regardless, I'll be getting LSD a new clutch and flywheel. I just can't decide if I want to ton of power. Its kind of pointless on a FWD car. Just going back and forth. But it will be a good year before I'm boosted if that happens.

whats a DCRH?

matt, i'm running a T3 instead of t3/t4 now...but yeah spooling at 4k won't be fun at all...but i'll see what i can do. maybe a t28 later sometime. what do i need to run some alcohol...cuz i'm afraid at 7psi, i may be running lean even with safcII tuned...dumbass stock FPR...what do you think?

 
Rep Power: 511

all you nned is to put the alcohol in your windshield washer reservoir and use the stock pump from that and add a relay to turn it on at 7 psi and route the tubing to a sprayer that injects in your charge pipe

Its out for the RSX and new SI with their Stage one kit only. They are working on it with the Stage 2 and 3 kit right now.

It will be out with the kit they are getting ready to work on for the D17.

Also they are goingto be making it to work with other turbo kits. Isn't that nice. hahahaa

All I know is that I have read so much about the gaurdian that it is too goo to be true. But its all real.

I'll post some threads about it from Clubrsx.com so you can find out alittle more about it.

i can't seem to pm these shifter pics to jodster so i load them here

help me figure out what shifter this is! i got it free with the car

 
Rep Power: 511

revo short shifter? i dont know. unless that is your stock one he replaced with an aftermarket one that is already in your car? it looks used, so im gonna guess it is the stock one.

look for an acura name or something on it

 
Rep Power: 374

Thats the factory shifter for the 7thgencivic. Its not a Revo SS.

 
Rep Power: 329

doh!

like i told jodie, the only identifier on it is this japanese price tag looking thing. thats it

he told me he had the short shifter but he went back to stock because they were fairly short throws anyways. doesn't revo make a non adjustable one?

EDIT: now i see where the adjustment can be made. i bet this is the non adjustable shifter that preceded the current one. it looks JUST like the revo except for that adjustment.

I'm so poor... the rest of my money went to the motorcycle The Civic is going to be unloved for a while as it needs to be paid off, and have some door dings fixed (I HATE parking in this god damn city, no one can watch their doors, or their shopping carts... it's rediculous) I'm just finishing up the motorcycle tweaks - new exhaust and intake, rejeted the carb and got a new rear tire as well. Next up, clip ons for the handlebars and a new wind screen. Then paint. Yay!

/watches money go down the drain!
