endo617's 98 Civic LX Project: Balance

[endo617]

Had to completely rewire the door harness with one from the junkyard, the wires were to corroded and broke off after the the first fix. Good news my oil pan baffle came in.

Wish things looked better. Winter seems to be dying down in Boston finally. Going start installing and replacing my parts. Also get the car ready for paint

Ahh. The 12th I have Autocross School to knock the cob webs off. And then the 26th is my first official event and the signups look good, lots of heavy hitters. Let me know, it's in Ayer, MA.

Buddy Club N+ were installed today, I went too low need to raise it up. Rides great though, really smooth. Summer wheels put on too.

Ok definitely want to come to the second event I'd what I'm doing on that day yet but I'm really interested in coming and seeing your car in person you have plans for paint anytime soon also you should look into a nearby sponsor whether it's a food place or shop just to cover cost of paint n body work maybe even a cool wrap on your car

Ok let me know. I might be painting my car like my integra and do a complete color change. Satin Red I feel will stain too fast.

Also I'll be taking pics of the new coilovers, need to change the front sway bar bushings while I lift the car.

 

[endo617]

Raised coilovers today, changed sway bar bushing, top off trasmission, changed the oil to Mobil1 0w40 and Bosch filter. All ready for next week.

Coilover Pics

New vs Old front sway bar bushings, they were junk as you can see.

Nice

Organized my oil, dang.

 

[endo617]

Little routine maintenance before Saturdays Autocross School, gap to 0.044 and torqued to 13lb.ft.

Yesterday Autocross School was awesome. Again learned so much from so much seat time. Buddy Club N+ coilovers did an amazing job as well as all the other small fix and add ons too. I was only like 1/2 sec. slower than one of the veterans that would beat me out last year by 5-10 sec. Next event is in 2 weeks. Sorry for the lack of an poor quality picture. Should have a short video clip.

Quick someone record of me through the slaloms.

My old spherical endlinks well no match to New England salt fiasco. Ordered some replacement Blox endlinks hope to install them before my 1st Official Autocross the 26th.

 

[endo617]

Just ordered my rear strut bar today just because.

yes sir nice and solid

Update:
Happy I found these by White Line ordered them just right now. They are 21mm Sway Bar lateral lock collars. It prevents my sway bar from shifting to one side, which has happened.
