Hi all, its been awhile since i posted that preview photo. Anyway, here's the whole build process in photo. Not much was changed, I basically had a full overhaul of my slightly-unhealthy B16A4 (it was puffing sporadic white smoke and we found out i had probably fried my piston rings), but i dropped a few more goodies into the engine since it was already down.

Enjoy!!! and sorry for poor photo quality, used an iPhone.

Car on stilts, engine out:

There's a build section for threads like this.

EKs are getting increasingly rare on our streets, our govt puts a 10-yr limit on the lifespan of cars here. so after ten years you have to scrap the car or cough up $10k plus to renew your vehicle registration. im very happy i have this beautiful car, i love it to bits. sorry for spamming threads, im just not sure where to put it. mods, if you want me to move it to the build section i will.

anyway, my engine bay!:


little outing with my group of hondas:

haha, that intake was developed by a well-known garage here called Choon's, so we gave it the Choon's Fat Tummy moniker. Its a 6-inch inlet with a blitz filter, very nice metallic ring when you push hard.
