Catch Can


I was going to wait to start this till i had most of my shit together, but I will make one now. Car is a 94 CX hatch with a JDM GSR swap and JRSC(BIG FAIL). I figured i would stripped the exterior down and then auto-x the car for fun. But the JRSC isnt enough for me anymore and I dont want to auto-x this car. So going turbo.

Here is how the car looked when i got it.




Then with the snow we got this year, i ripped the front bumper off. So then the car looked like this.



Went to my friends garage and we were bored so this happened one weekend. Painted the DS camo then later that day just straight Khaki.



A week later we finished the car. Its my $80 paint job. All spray paint!! Could have been probably 40-50 if I didnt use the Kyrlon $7/can spray paint.

One of my friends started to part out his car. So I got most of his turbo kit. P-FAB log, Turbonetics evolution wastegate, ebay intercooler, piping and bov. 3in 5 bolt Down pipe. He wouldnt sell me the Synapse BOV. 




This weekend I took the SIs off for a potential sell and it didnt happen. So i threw on my half stripped EK optionals.




Once i sell some of the shit i can buy a TB, spacer, and thermal gasket from Chris.

[Gold DA9]

Forgot the engine bay shots.LOL




Here are pics of the old interior too. Totally forgot i dont have pics of the cloth interior. GSR leathers were sold/traded for cloth seats.

The yellow panels have been replaced with black ones also.

Car was converted to power windows and locks.

[Joseph Davis]

Kinda surprised you sold the GSR leathers, those things are comfy.

I want your blower. 

[jabberwock]

im picking up a 1st gen skunk2 manifoldi tomorrow. so not this weekend but the following one It should be going on.

[Joseph Davis]

First gen S2 IM on a GSR is a form of failure, that's an ITR plenum/runner clone with a GSR flange and shit doesn't work like that on that manifold.

Get one of the AEBS/Pro Products units, they at least have the angle of entry into the head correct.

[Gold DA9]

Its something to get me by for now. Only paying $100 for it. Plan to use Chris Ms 74mm TB and spacer.

You should listen to the old man, despite his lack of hair, his inability to pull women who aren't crazy or physically fit/attractive, he knows what the fuck he's talking about.  When old man speaks, I listen, it hasn't steered me wrong.  I love my Lenovo t500.

[Joseph Davis]

Were you able to talk somebody else's gf into bed?  If so, which tactic did it involve? 

[Gold DA9]

I don't plan to have this manifold for long. I want a Victor x.  I just need something to hold me over while I sell the jrsc. This is my DD and only car.

[Gold DA9]

i was just offered a ebay turbo kit for a sohc for my CF hood. I think I may jump on this.

This thread might be alot of fail.

[HiProfile]

If it's a 1-ply ebay hood, go for it.

[Gold DA9]

How can you tell if its a one ply? Its a JSP hood.

[Joseph Davis]

How's the fit and finish?

[Gold DA9]

The fit is pretty good when it had the body kit on. What i failed to notice was that the car was hit in the front previously. And not fixed properly. The had brackets holding the front bumper to align it and the holes in the fenders were made larger to adjust them.

Total fail on me.

[Gold DA9]

searched on here and have been looking at some of the catch cans. Most didnt have a drain. I was also looking at the Z10 one and there plug that eliminates the black box. But im a cheap nog.

Contemplating trying to do something like the Z10 one. Which would be easy to do, while swapping the JRSC for a intake manifold.

i need to do more research.

Also what do you guys think about venting the valve cover with a tube under the car?

[Gold DA9]

Kinda surprised you sold the GSR leathers, those things are comfy.

I want your blower. 

With the heat around here they were starting to crack. Plus i wanted cloths for a while.

Do you seriously want the blower?

[Gold DA9]

Picking up a HX35W on Sunday hopefully. Should be buying a intake manifold gasket and tb gasket tomorrow if I get up early enough.

$40 for the hole slut needs some work, but i think it will be worth it.

gpop or ebay for the rebuild kit is what im debating.

[SuperDave]

Holy shit that Rear Low Window wing is FUCKING GAY!

Seriously want, yes.  Afford?  Not at the moment. 

[Gold DA9]

let me know when you do. Might still have it. JRSC are a dieing bread.

Need thermal gaskets, Chris' 74mm TB and spacer, rebuild a holset and a few other things.

Prelude block has what you need to get rid of the black box.

Just re-read what you said. The mid-wing always gets mixed reviews.

CrxVtec91 thanks for the info. My friend has 2 h22s sitting in a garage. Wonder if he would let me grab these off of one. Probably better if I buy te new though.

[Gold DA9]

Anxiously awaiting the arrival of my 74mm TB, spacer, and thermal gasket that I just ordered from Chris.

Also searching for a holset...
