Well couldnt cut and paste with updates from the old thread so i will start over.
Well decided to put the VX back together this year after selling the old setup off and stripping it down.Here was the old setup
(FUCK OLDhmt!!!!) ran some 11.6 at 118mph with that and now looking to go tens. Big thanks to dvst8r for the help with the roll bar and other stuff.I decided enough of the B series shit time to get back to the dirty D :y
92 Civic VX Comp Eng roll bar kit me and Brett [dvst8r] welded in,painted by a old drunk guy in his barn/garage thing :D its stripped inside with a alum dash that cost $60 O0
Motor- D15B vtec 75mm Vitara pistons,FJT rods,Crespo springs and retainers :l, Colt cams regrind,Skank int mani,edelbrock TB
Tranny- stock SI/EX tranny replaced a couple seals and a bearing as well added a OBX diff and a LSD 6puck sprug disc heavy duty pressure plate and 12 lb steel flywheel.
Turbo- Holset HE351CW,Eville140 manifold,CDM 38mm gate,CDM 50mm blow off valve,Peakboost front mount and charge pipes from Urban Indians kit and a white tent 4" mild steel downpipe to CDM SS 3" catback :P
Fuel/Management- ECtune,chipped P28,Hondata 4bar,Precsion 880's,Walbro 255,Aeromotive regulator,LC1 WB and fuel lines half converted to -6
Suspension needs som attention its pretty much stock with Skunk 900lb rear springs will get some shocks,urethne bushing and traction bars this winter.
Pics so far.I cut most of the brake lines out when I stripped it down and was gonna do a tuck etc but then realized im way to lazy for all that bending so i bought a box of Russell Speedflex hose and made SSlines instead way easier way to make brake and clutch lines :6
Strip down and new rad support

Sold it :D

Judging by the huge ricer muffler, you sold the vibrant flat black too.

I call bullshit on the ecutune. You are going 90dx style and using this

-
Hmm that does look like 90dx's work bench.
-
Okay some updates so the car is mechanically done just needs some finishing electrical inside the car i have a 3 3/8 " tach to go in beside the Tuner View as i prefer a standalone tach even though the Tuner View has one.As well i need to finish routing the interior harness make a mount for the ecu.Last the windshield needs to go in once i know all the gauges are working properly everything is routed cleanly etc. You cant take the dash out with the glass in :D

The downpipe is 4" adapter cut down then 3" looped around in a U coming back down under the pan then a flex into a vband.Its all flux core madness so i wrapped it after as its gonna cook the clutch slave its actually touching :?: The wastegate dump is 44mm stainless tube fluxcored to a 38mm mild steel flange :D Should fall off at some point but i will get some bends in to make a new pipe rerouted into the D.P later on.

Now the bad news my brand new Ostrich v2.0 is bunk i think :'( It will not show up via the Moates firmware updater or ECtune and i tested this on two computers here then on Urban Indians laptop against his Ostrich where it does not show up either. >:( I think it needs to be sent back to Moates/Xenecron to be inspected. I might toss either some stock EF 240's in and a stock map sensor to break it in or try firing up my old Willems Burner and get Crome running but i dont want to be buring ten chips to get the idle-2000 rpms at a good AFR for warm up first cycle. This fucking blows.Ectune is really nice software though i made a basemap its really user friendly and smooth interface lots of options etc. I just wish i could burn chips with it.
-
how late you working till tomorrow.
maybe try and come supervise me and levi put in his motor
-
Looks good, when you come out to castrol, we can fix the fluxcored madness, and put a vibrant on it. Even if I have to drag the tig all the way to Edmonton.
-
Nice work. Just remember man, you always run into problems when messing with your car. I got my shit turboed finally, and my 5th get syncro sleeve took a shit after the bearing above it decided to take a shit. Shitty thing is I was on the way the get it tuned. Good luck with the build, its coming together nicely.
-
Send the Ostrich back to Moates. They'll fix it for you, fo free. Just get in contact with them first before you send it to them.

Have you viewed that tunerview at an angle before? You may want to box it out (or in) so you view it flat instead.
-
You need to buy a nitrous kit. Haven't you heard? 9's are the new 10's.

I think that turbo has enough in it for 9's, but I doubt that transmission does.

Verified the Ostrich is bunk tonight so pack it up to ship out tommorow :'( I'm not sure what to run the car on for the mean time or just wait to get the Ostrich back, I could use Crome and my Willems burner but that shit is getto. I will get the wiring finished up after my 4 day tour on the weekend.Went to help Urban Indian out this evening but it was total cluster fuck/failure scene there :D

So honestly, is it going to be ready for the weekend? Or is there just all sorts of Indian Fail going on?

The build is looking good :)
-
Can't wait to see some colour in that hot mini ram mani or w/e its called. Looks awesome dude, glad you got back on this.
-
INDIAN FAIL LOL
ok
-
Okay RMA from Moates done he is good to deal with as always unfortunetly though the shipping is gonna cost me $100 to get it there and back in a faster then the USPS tuna boat method :-X As far as running a 9 i am pretty leary about this SSR 4.7 final drive i have in the tranny along with the general D series shitty trannyness that is always looming :?:
-
So you'll shear a FD trying to launch super hard on anything bigger than a 24.5" slick, or trying to bang gears. Do like the rest of the world and pile on the power to offset mild driving.

You should grab the Indian's Burn1 and at least get it fired on a chip.
I just saw that turbo make 545WHP on a CR Cummins, So it should have no problem making 600+ on a Honda.

whats the over under for how long that bay stays pearly white?
nice build tho, still a little skeptical about the cage and the rear shock towers.

I am a little skeptical about the bars tying into two 1/8th plates sandwiching the floor, but it pass's NHRA tech... The shock tower is probably the most reinforced place on the car, as it has to carry the weight of the car. I could have put the bars to the floor, but having built a number of off-road cages that have been flopped and rolled, I would trust my life to that setup. Albeit I wish we would have done the front half and not just the roll bar, but that was 90dx's call not mine.

90dx plans to drive it on the street as well. It will be a street legal race car, as such is kind of trying to keep it "low profile"

But is it still your car?
-
ya update nog :P
-
No I sold it to someone i know. He will let me take it for some passes at the track in spring when they open up. Got 4500 and a super JDM style LS/Vtec EF for it :?: The new owner ordered some wide front fenders for it should look really good. The Tunerview is giving me a little grief getting it working right but other then that it runs nice no leaks sounds good too.
-
How about an update with pics and vid... :P
