CHILD'S *EK* ... finally i have an EK
- Thread starter CHILD
- Start date
Yeah it's been awhile. Having my son really threw everything on the back burner for a bit. As far as the cluster goes, I've been talking with Gaijin-Garage (an authorized Spoon dealer) about a modded cluster from Spoon. The part hasn't been listed anywhere for sale, but Im hoping to get ahold of one. So I do have plans to change it but if I can't get the one I'm after, ill just go with an AP1 cluster. I'm currently just picking up tools I'll need for the swap and I'll jump into swapping it asap without an exhaust for the moment.
Thanks you guys!
Haha. Me too actually. I'm excited!*sweating from anxious anticipation***
EG/DC chassis parts arrive tomorrow!
No specific date, although I do want to make it to Wekfest TXSo... New ETA?
Man I know your pumped bro. It's been a long journey and your almost there. We all know your build isn't over once the swap is done but it will damn sure be worth it all the first time you give the car 100% throttle and vtec engages and you take off like a rocket ship on the interstate or highway of your choosing.
So by December 15th?
not too farAre you serious? I'll be there.
!!! If the car isn't there, i'll be doing photos and video for sure and hanging around with team5star if not soloBIG SHOUT OUT to Alex, K-N-2-EK, for hooking me up and doing a great job with getting my EG/DC parts powder coated!!! I appreciate all the effort to get me what I wanted!
Makes my paint job look pretty dull hahaha
I'm right there with you on that. My daughter has sapped nearly any free time I had left... I was planning to install power door locks and an alarm in mine this weekend, but my wife is already tapping me in to have the baby all weekend.
I'd like to offer help to do the swap or come see your car at wekfest... but my wife would never let me go that far to 'play' right now
I'll keep an eye out, but I'll be solo. My car isn't wekfest worthy.
Just look for the star on my neck lol. I do respond to Childstar, or "HEY!" Lol
I could use my ek subframe and have way worse ground clearance especially since I have the taller k24, not enough room to fit anything other than a PRB (rsx) intake manifold, so less power or mods needing to be done to the radiator and/or core support to clear the TPS, also I'd have a bad axle angle that tends to snap axles easily when over 200whp which is basically a completely stock swap.
Thanks boss!
As if that's gonna stay untouchedDamn! Those parts look fresh!
That poor engine bay paint gonna kill your swap vibe!
It won't be that dramatic because I need a compete paint job and body work and I don't have the cash for the type of work I want done. I'll be driving before paint.
Only EK9 set I know of in America
