CHILD'S *EK* ... finally i have an EK
- Thread starter CHILD
- Start date
The majority of the time, I was far too busy with actually getting work done, but here are some pics that I snapped alond the way
Pulling out the sohc
draining coolant...peep that authentic spoon!
just an underbody shot for reference. So filthy!
Radiator, battery, fuse box, and header removed
engine harness disconnected
safe keeping
some goodies waiting...
where the sohc belongs
gross
new subframe installed
EKK2 mounts, rack, and downstar hardware
engine harness wires waiting to be modded to enter the cabin via the oem opening
stock exhaust removed
oem shifter removed
wireworx harness routed
billet rsx shifter installed
dash removed along with, heater core, a/c condensor, and blower
throttle cable connected
K-tuned firewall grommet installed and cables ran
starter motor wired up
radiator and fan installed
intake installed
K-Tuned ram header installed. Tons of clearance
Mishimoto overflow installed (later removed due to the hose supplied. It does not create a good seal)
Unnecessary but I like the way it looks
battery and charge harness installed
WS2 installed
After a few times of letting the car idle, the header is turning a nice gold. I also use a glass cleaner like Windex to degrease it before introducing a header to heat. It tends to turn gold rather than a bronze/brown-ish color
Currently dealing with issues of it running properly. I couldn't get a decent idle for awhile, swapped the TPS and MAP and that helped a lot. The CEL illuminates around 900-1200rpm currently and I have a high value in kpro, INJ (ms) is around 15.06 and typically during idle I am running extremely rich with a 10.4:1 A/F ratio.
