in addition to yanking the engine and re-installing, we added all these parts:
AEM fuel rail
AEM fuel pressure regulator
AEM fuel filter
Skunk2 intake manifold
Skunk2 throttle body
Skunk2 CAT-back exhaust
Skunk2 short shifter
ACT flywheel (he already had ACT clutch)
ZEX nos kit
Koyo aluminum radiator

we also polished the cr@p out of everything....here is the after pics:

the batteries died in my camera :banghead: i'm waiting for him to bring it back for more work for some more pics :naughty:

:eek2: :ylsuper: :thumbsup: Another clean, bad ass, clean, impressive, quality install. I love your work over there. Keep it up, and i'll move out there to work at your shop.

pwr > koyo :iceslolan

Who uses a engine hoist anymore, you need to get a lift. :smokin:

Oh, looks good by the way. I love fixing other shops crummy work.

daaaaaaamn, how much does it run for a job like that? around here one of our most popular shops ar emillenium auto sports, they charge 1000 for a swap with lifetime labor warranty

awesome work Ami!

yea, maybe i would have a lift if we had taller than 7' ceilings....which is a good reason there are rumors the shop is moving to a larger location :naughty:

jeremy's brother is coming up from NV today and we're doing something similiar to his 91 b16 hatch. i'll be sure to add more pics to this thread after he leaves next week....

his hatch is going to be a beautiful thing...i may shed a tear when it's done :icon16:

Y'all do good work. I'm seriously considering buying a hatch already done up like the one pictured above. I could probably get the bank loan for the cash. The problem is finding a car worth it. I love Honda hatches especially with badass motors. Using high octane fuel would suck, but a built up hatch would still be better than a brand new POS IMO...

one of these days you'll have to call us. we can and do build anything. any color. any style. any engine. he did 12 volt electronics for 8 years so anything is literally possible :naughty:

nice work Ami. Good to be back and see you've been working hard, tis me, the Aussie CRX driver SLAVE, on a non-banned name and isp. :P

hahaha, Slave...you sure know how to announce your presence :grinno:

we have brain washed the owner of the 96 civic after a spin in our b16 4th gen hatch. he has informed us he is buying a 90 Si for us to install his b20/vtec into. :evillol: he is buying my y8 (say whaaaaat?!?!) to drop into his 96 and then sellng it.

.....stay tuned for the next update, some pretty sick stuff is about to go down :naughty:

some pretty sick stuff is about to go down :naughty:

OHYAH .... I know what it is :evillol: and yes CRAZIER than ANYONE on this forum.

what? air ride into a 4th Gen? lmao

elloz Ami!! Yeah, I don't tip toe much, but I do like to shout!!!!

And yay this lil Aussie man is getting married!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! AND HAVING A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And, because we have a family car (CRV, kept it in the family!!) I got given permission to strip my CRX, drop in a new motor and go nuts with my lil 90 CRX.

what? air ride into a 4th Gen? lmao
not even close. ;)

....stay tuned for the next update, some pretty sick stuff is about to go down :naughty:

:uhoh: :dunno:

You traitor!

Is that a B18C5 with DOHC? Ugh...





BTW, looks pretty sweet

they guy who owns the b20/vtec bought my y8/dc header/center force clutch for his 96 ex, which is being sold.

my next post will be a bunch of pics of a b20/vtec in a 90 si :naughty:

What do you guys use to clean and polish those motors???

looks really nice ami :) where are you located again? I might have to plan a summer road trip with my woman to come have some work done on my car. :)

nick: I gave you the answer you seek on AIM...somehow you didn't get it. hit me up again and I'll tell you again. did you call that place for a tranny?
