When I first got it
Image
All stock EX, some crappy aftermarket wing, "hx" wheels, needed a master cylinder and the clutch was going bad. Also had no radio.

Mid April '10
Image

Lowered on PIC coilovers, had ASR brace, 24mm sway bar, and fat fives w/Runways! Drove awesome, thought this was a stopping point cuz I wanted to focus on getting another Jeep.
Image

May '10

Swapped a B16 in... and got new wheels and mounted my Momo/NRG stuff
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

And then it started... I wanted to get serious w/auto-x, roadracing, etc so... I did what any ricers does... Pulled the interior and removed all the sound deadening.

Image
Image
Image

November '10 came and I took a couple days vacation and did a wire tuck, also "tucked" and resleeved my wire harness.
Image
Image
Image
Image

After completing the tuck and all that, the car remained unchanged for awhile. Til, I got my bonus and decided once again that I wanted to make some changes.

So, I bought my all time favorite wheels The Starks.
the first initial test fit on April 7 '11
Image

And, once again car didnt change for awhile. I managed before the end of the auto-x season to get a few heats in. (it's Aug. 2011 at this point in time)

Image

The del sol in the picture belongs to a member on here, can't remember his name though.

Image

The car at this time had no rear sway bar and was on Bilsteins w/Nuespeed springs.

and now... we're up to date. (so to speak)

Image
B20V

Bay as of right now
Image

I've bent the brake line that will run from the MC to a bulkhead on the firewall, I've also bent both front brake lines that will run from the fenderwell to the stock brake line location.
Image

Master cylinders mounted up (still need fittings to finalize it)
Image

Catch can in place ( i will replace the fittings w/black AN from summit more than likely)
Image

Also decided to replace the SS line that runs from the oil filter adapter tot he head (on vtec conversions) w/a hardlines. So I bent that up, using 1/4 fuel line.Image

I still need all the fittings for the brake tuck, all the fittins and hose for hte fuel lines and some other misc. stuff.

And, I'll leave this with a shot of the engine.
Image

Thanks for lookin, I'll post updates as often as theyre made!

#284405 I spoke to my uncle at work today he said that he'd for sure have one of his guys press out the blox bushings and bore the holes to accept the hardrace bushings. So I borrowed a dial caliper gauge deal and measured them.

Hardrace bushings are larger than the blox. The inboard and outboard (subframe and trailing arm) are 31mm on the blox and 35mm on the hardrace, the shock bushings are 35 on the blox and 37 on the hardrace.

I dont see a problem in massaging them just a touch!

So in short, if you're wanting to replace your Crappy Blox bushings with OEM Honda or Hardrace bushings, you can, just takes some work!

LOL
