So earlier last year i bought a 93 EJ1. This is the progress of that car thus far.
The motor wasnt running right so i went and bought an LS/VTEC swap from a local shop and swapped it in with my cousin. heres a pic.
i also purchased some performance parts for it as well...
heres a pic of the motor in the car
i also purchased an ITR shiftboot and skunk2 short shifter and shiftknob
some other parts i have lying around waiting to be installed. included are jdm headlights, power folding mirrors, JDM OEM yellow foglights and red and clear/smoked taillights.
heres a pic of the rear with the taillights installed. not sure if i like it much yet.
now, my motor has had problems but its basically fixed. The only problem it has left is that VTEC isn't kicking in. The tech had to wired the VTEC solenoid to a toggle switch, which pisses me off and it still feels like its not up to its full potential. Heres a vid of it.
i ask him some questions about it while test driving it. Idk what it could be honestly. When i first swapped it it kicked in and it kicked hard. Idk why its not kicking in now, so if any of you could have any idea that i could look into, let me know.
