haha me too. it will never end. im about 700 dollars from finishing my tuck alone fml
Yeah, it looks cleaner than the 2-piece one that comes stock in the EK. It's more like the brake master cylinder and mounts entirely on the firewall. It is mostly done for looks.
The loom for my harness came in today. I also made what is hopefully my final order to Majestic Honda, so when that comes in, I should be able to finish assembling my engine.
It also looks like I'm going to have to depin some of my plugs. Does anyone have tips for depinning/repinning plugs? Any advice is helpful.

Haha anything helps. I've been experimenting with the junk harness that came on the engine. I can depin them pretty easily, but I can't seem to repin them. So I don't know what I'm going to do yet...Only tip I can think of is, pins come out easy once you figure out how they are locked in place so don't force anything.useless info, I know.
I'll mess around with it some more tomorrow. Hopefully I can figure it out.
use a pin or somethign to push them back in, they snap back in
Alright thanks
I dropped the engine off the stand and replaced the rear main seal (cross your fingers that it doesn't leak...). Installed the Toda flywheel.
Went to install the Exedy Stage 1 clutch, but the pressure plate won't slide the whole way onto the flywheel. The clutch disc seems to thick. Any suggestions??
Help please...

i believe mine was like that but when i bolted it. it made it fit on all the way
Alright, so you think I should just start bolting it down and see what happens?
yeah now that i thought about it, its supposed to do that. right now the clutch is pushed against the flywheel because the release bearing isnt pushing down on the fingers. this is normal. had to think how the system works lol
love this build, can't wait for mawr!
^^^ yea MMMMMMMMAAAAWWWWRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopefully this works. I'll try it later today after work.
Hang in there fellas. I should have some more updates after this weekend. I am, after all, hoping to put the engine in over spring break, which is next week.
