My 94 Civic Coupe: Motor installed!

I cant believe I dropped that fucking $7 dollar little grommet piece. Why the fuck are those things so expensive? You can get a whole valve cover gasket with spark plug seals and those grommets for $20 shipped on ebay, so if we dont have them cheaper than that at work in a set im gonna buy that.

 

Not that anyone follows my worlds slowest buildup, but if nothing else this list is for me to remember what is coming up. Here are somethings that are planned for my car in the near future:

1. Skunk2 Full Coilover (within 2 months)
2. Window tint (within 2 weeks)
3. Finish converting interior to black + suede door inserts and headliner (within a few weeks)
4. Reclear coat hood (within a month)
5.. Begin saving parts/money for a turbo setup. (within a year)

 

Heres a shot of the new valve cover. It looks MUCH better in sunlight I will take a better pic later and try to capture it.

 

Looks cool.

 

hey it may take forever to build up but I bet when its all done its going to look fawkin sick!!

 

haha, yea... those lil grommet things are gay... I can't believe work wants $7 a piece -_- that's sux... just get a new set shipped for cheap

car will look even better with the tint and new suspension good luck saving for the turbo set up... with what we get paid *rolls eyes* that should be fun, haha

 

Damm dude that looks sick!

 

dude, I changed my oil today and there was like 1 quart of nasty oil in it Im kinda upset, I dont wanna talk about it... Anyways I put some seafoam and new castrol syntec in it so its running better now. Too bad I must be burning oil tho, lets see if this additive does anything.

*note to self: CHECK YOUR DAMN OIL MORE!

 

ewww...nasty oil is no fun... hopefully that seafoam works...

 

coupe looks really good

 

seafoam FTW!!!!


love that stuff!

 

Yea that shit is awesome! I put it in like every month. I cut off my ac compressor belt since my compressor fried and it made the car a little quicker too

 

Very nice ej coupe man!

 

thanks!

Heres a new toy I bought for the car with the money im supposed to be saving for coilovers lol. It was $48 bucks and I wanted it, so I got it I got a single gauge a pillar pod too.

 

Heres a shot I snapped tonight to show you my new intake. Its a shitty shot but ill take real pics later. What do you guys think?



Heres the new gauge, I should have it mounted soon

 

looking good

i like your whale penis intake haha

 

^LoLz

niiice car man

 

what is the guage? shift light and what else? looks nice

 

Thanks guys, the gauge is a shift light, and it reads the RPMs digitally. It can also recall peak rpms, and do some other shit I dunno about yet lol.

 

Was there a diffrence that you could notice between your old intake and and your "whale penis"? lol

It looks good too by the way, I love the blue you went with!
