GSR Build Begins!!

[96 EK]

Hi everyone, thanks for all of the positive feedback. I just wanted to let everyone know the results of the track last Thursday. The ram air definately helped. I know the times are slow, but I now have a new personal best. This is for a bone stock D16Y7 BTW.

The best time I could get before the ram air was a 10.9. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldnt get better than a 10.9. Now Im at a 10.84. No other changes have been made except for the ram air which I am planning on modifying really soon. Here are my times:

Run 1:
.1279 (Reaction)
2.56 (60 ft.)
7.12 (330 ft.)

Ok, heres what Ive been working on this weekend. Ive been working on getting my nitrous nozzle installed in my ARC intake box. Ive fabbed up a small bracket to hold the nozzle in place. The bracket was just a normal L bracket that came with my ram air kit that I modified.

Keep in mind that this is still in the rough stage. I am doing this so I will not have to drill holes in my new air box. I am going to modify the bottom of the air box (lower filter area) so that I can run my nitrous line and still use my ram air. Once I get started on this I will post pics. For now, here is the area that will have to be modded:

Heres the nozzle and bracket I made:

Heres roughly what it may look like once its installed. (Changes still need to be made)

Almost done; I still need my Chase Bays wiring harness, Comp. Clutch, couple other gauges, a sensor or two, and axles. Other than that, Im ready to drop it in. Its really close to being finished.

Another Update:

I just bought my 750cc RC injectors. Thanks Blue Ridge Motorsports!!

Here are a few teaser shots of the engine. We've got the cams installed this weekend and all thats left is to set the valves and start bolting everything on. I did a quick test fit of some of my parts and I still need to straighten, tighten, and adjust some stuff. I also still need to trim my timing belt cover for the cam gears and other things, but Im really close to being done. I just wish I could finish it before the East Coast Honda Meet.
