Random yank

For some reason I felt compelled to post pictures of when we yanked my motor most recently.

Ah, victory! I'm not shown, due to the fact that I was taking the picture.

Well, if you can notice that in the second picture, I'm missing my radiator support... that was torn to shambles due to a towing incident. $2,200 in damage. :banghead:
Oh well. =)

wtf I would get the tow company to pay for that shit. What's going in there next?

Nothing, he plans on running on hopes and dreams. Or he can push it across the line. Or better yet, Tow it? :lol: . J/P mang! Late...

dude, didn't you hear...he lives his life a quarter mile at a time

wtf I would get the tow company to pay for that shit. What's going in there next?
yea i'd sue them for that tow. And inquering minds wanta know whats going in =D

lol, yeah. Good ol' "Not responsible for any damage." Ain't that some shit?
White trash Dewey's Towing. :icon16:

Anyway, the motor is back in. We coated the bay to a flat-black but we had to yank it because well, the car died. We figured it out it was the alternator, but now as some have read me posts... it has a wierd idle. We replaced the TPS and such... but it still has a 1k-2.5k jump. And when it is in gear: for instance going 25 in third gear and the RPM's fall into that 1k-2k range... the car accelerates by itself. lol

I was thinking about just having Honda look at it. =\

Oh yeah, forgot. Was thinking of just saving for a B16a2 or something and pop that in. Not like swapping is hard, just coming up with the cash.

But then I would have to get rid of the Z6... most likely just gonna pop it on E-bay or something.

Btw, a thought entered my mind. Wouldn't you want close gear-ratio's if you are racing? Because the dude who owned the hatch before me swapped the CX tranny into it... making it a slow shift. I mean... 125 in 3rd gear? :screwy: I'd think you would want shorter than that.
