Haha will do. Hopefully this deal goes through.
The guy I was going to buy the ITR trans from sold it before I could pick it up. I'm pretty pissed, guess I'll be rolling with the B16 for the time being.
Anyway, more parts:
ITR front upper strut bar
My birthday present, to go with the front, a CTR sway bar
'01 Prelude 1" MC and BB
40/40 prop valve
AEM CAI
My next two paychecks will be spent on a massive order from Majestic Honda and a clutch/flywheel/pressure plate. I was thinking an Exedy Stage 1 with lightened flywheel. Any suggestions?

Exedy actually makes OEM replacement, stage 1, stage 2, and racing clutches. I was going to get either stage 1 or 2 because I don't plan on making a ton of horsepower(at first anyway).
Ok so maybe a stage 2? I also had a friend recommend the Competition Clutch stage 4. Anyone had any experience with that clutch?
my buddy has the competition clutch 4 puck on his dsm, i don't know if that is stage for or not, but i know that the 4 puck is amazing, if you have only drivin on stock style clutches, prepare yourself. the engagement on this thing is immediate, the second you start rolling off, it is engaging, you take your foot off the floor at all and its grabbing, i love it to be honest. its easy for just a pure laziness factor of not having to take your heel off of the floor cause its got like an inch or less of pedal. it also can take an ass whooping when you need it to. personally i would recommend it.
Yeah I think the one you're describing is the stage 5 clutch. My friend strongly recommends the stage 4 and says he is going to change to it (in his K-swapped EM1) as soon as he gets the chance. It just seems like overkill for a lightly modified street car to me.
oh it's overkill by a f**king long shot, and i always ragged on him for getting it saying your not in a race car why bother, but once you are use to it and once i drove it, there was no going back. if you are looking fir something cheaper with less harsher engagement and not as extreme of a clutch i wouldn't recommend it, but if you plan on making some pretty decent horsepower numbers, id recommend it.
Yeah I think it may be a little to intense for me, I just don't know what to choose.
What did you think of the Exedy clutch you had in your B16? What kind of torque were you making?
It was alright, nothing special. I dyno'd at 111wtq 156whp with just intake, header, and exhaust. don't get me wrong, it worked fine, but I would have needed more with more mods to avoid it"hanging" at high rpm gear changes
Thanks! Yeah I definitely want a lightened flywheel to make it rev a little faster.Great build so far!
I have an Exedy OE clutch and Fidanza lightened flywheel on my stock Y8. I love it!
That is basically all I plan to do in the foreseeable future so maybe I will stick with an Exedy stage 1 or 2.
Hmmm, so many choices...My K20 has a Stage 2 Comp Clutch / lightweight flywheel. Grabs so fast with little pedal movement. Best purchase I've made

I finally got some shelving to organize my parts and even have a little work bench now.
I pulled all the wiring and hoses off the motor (cross your fingers that I can figure out how all the hoses go back on). Then I cleaned some sensors that I would be reusing. Next I went through and labeled all the plugs on my P2P harness and marked the ones I need to modify or remove.
I cleaned the fuel rail and sent my injectors off to be refurbished.
I stripped the black spray paint off my Skunk2 intake manifold (no pics yet).
Also I picked up a Spoon Sports Venturi intake manifold. Unfortunately its for an OBD0 B16, the coolant port is on the opposite side.
Anyone interested??
So I have been thinking about painting my engine block, head, and trans an aluminum color. I have seen some pictures of it done and I kinda like it. Any opinions?
Well, it's been awhile since I've had any updates.
I borrowed my friend's sandblaster to throughly clean my IM.
I also got my injectors back from servicing. They are all operating at 100% now.
Also got some more Spoon goodies.
