Whats under your hood?!?!

Anyone have an engine set up they think deserves credit?? As long as you put some sweat and blood into it, i dont care if it's a D15B8 core lol.
LEAVE SOME PICS AND DESCRIPTIONS AND LETS SEE WHAT WE ALL HAVE UNDER OUR HOODS! my pics are my avatar and signature. leave comments, lets recognize the real gearheads out there with imagination!

since no one has replied, i guess ill throw mine up.
DOHC ZC mated to an 89 Si tranny. ZC tranny will be in whenever i get enough money to buy the new axles.

Whats done to it: (and yes im proud to say that i did everything myself)
-Port and polished head also port matched
-3 angle valve job
-dh-racing crank pulley
-b&m fuel pressure regulator
-short ram intake

-exhaust w/ highflow cat
I just rebuilt the entire engine last month because I bent a rod. Rebuild consited of all gaskets, bearings, and new rings. also cleaned everything to like new. Painted the engine bay flat black along with my intake manifold (gloss black).

what do you do in the 1/4 mile?? cuz i have the d16a6 and all the parts that you just listed in my brother's 88 crx dx

JDM D15B non-vtec with DPFI. I tuned it up and got it running sweet, perfect idle, quiet, clean, with almost 36mpg in the city and 40 on the highway.

Hey guys, thanx a lot for the replies. Its awesome talkin to so many diff 4th gen configurations. As for the SOHC peeps keep it up. If you're non vtec, keep it up, if your engine is broken, I will pray for it. If you have Honda's muscle machines D15B's, well good luck with a swap, if you want the d15 to make power (meaning +100hp), you have balls. Think outside of the box guys. Thanx again and keep this thread goin' feel free to ask anyone question about their setup if you are curious, thats y this thread is here.
LONG LIVE 4TH GENS

and thats me in a nutshell....well, dx shell

Haven't gone to the track yet... I have a small tear in driverside axle boot and howling wheel bearing on passenger side. So guys should I take it to the track before I get new or get new stuff first? Also, the 1/4 is pretty damn far away from where I live so I have to make it back home...


check the torque of your passenger side axle nut. improper tq can cause bearing noise. Correcting it may fix it if damage was not already done.

Pardon my ignorance, but which nut exactly do you mean? the spindle nut? The wheel spins straight and there is no movement except for some slight (like 1mm) of play in the axle itself. Thanks!

the nut on the end of the axle is used to preload the bearing. In the rear it is a spindle nut, since there is no axle, in the front it is the axle nut.

d15b7 so i guess its newer than the stock b2 but same hp. i got a intake, thats it.

hopefully in 2 month ill get my lsvtec in with soem sort of stage 2 cams, b16 pistons, exedy flywheel, dc headers, dsm 450s, uberdata tuned. actually looking at it now, looks like 3 months, lol.

lol, and then 3 months will quickly turn to 4, then 5 and so on, trust me my year and half build of my b18c1 was only supposed to take 7 months including install...

yeah my 3 month assembly of my EF is still ongoing at 2.5 years. damn conversion ideas and more parts keep it off the road

after calculating costs, i came up with 3700 roughly, i make about 1300 a month, so i figure in 3 months with 3900, that should take care of all the unexpected costs.

hasports mounts - 500
clutch&flywheel - 500
syncros ls trans - 200
b16 obd1 dist - 200
obd1-obd0 conversion - 100
p28 ecu socketed - 150
laptop - 500
uberdata equipment - 600
cams and retainer - 800??
GE lsvtec kit - 200

idk might have to forgo the cams for now. i have to go back to school in august so im just going witht he bare essentials first, i might not even have the money in time to tune it with uberdata, might just have to run off a stock pr3 or p30. but yeah i know what your talking about, about it taking way longer than expected

any a lot more money... my motor was only supposed to cost about 10g's and im up near 13 now and still going..

all i have is a JDM DOHC ZC

Vibrant Intake with APC Filter
