Glad you and your car is OK! Take care T.

 

[HondaDreamS]

Glad everyone and the car is ok. Its amazing how from one second to the next all hell can brake loose...

 

[Nero Tenebre]

What was the issue?

 

[Nefarious]

Man that would make my stomach churn. So glad you didn't have any damage. Someone was watching out for you and your homie.

Why?? I've been running a C25 pulley for over 8k miles on my C30. It's an OEM pulley with no built in dampening....Very noticeable improvement on throttle response. I'm not going back!

FD3NSX, im in silver spring let me see that monster in person!!

Are you going down to the OC car show (June 9th and 10th?)..If not, we should all meet up and go on a cruise

Looks great.


Imo a http://locustom.com/ antenna and losing the windshield stickers would really clean it up nice!! Maybe tint the side markers as well.

Car looks sweet though nice work.

+1 re shark attack 2 antenna.

i was going to suggest removing all the stickers as well; simply because it is starting to look a tad too busy with all the beautiful body modifications all around.

I kinda like the old school antenna. My friends also tell me to change it but for some oddd reason, i love em! :smile: Im changing the colors on the stickers. Im planning on running with some strickers over the summer for events and take them off later

wow, unbelievable job well done ! two thumbs up for all your effort to make it happen.
can you post pic of the fnished ek9 civic intake? i am curious if you modified anything to make it fit on that side hole . congrats !!!

Ill take some pictures once I clean my engine bay. Its pretty dirty from the fire

What was the issue?

Axle rubbed against the oil hose and cracked it opened. It was so close to the header/exhaust and caught on fire.

Man that would make my stomach churn. So glad you didn't have any damage. Someone was watching out for you and your homie.

I know right! I got my fire extinguisher now!

updates on this baddie?

 

[FD3SNSX]

​

plumbing is done. Ive been really busy at my work and only had alittle time on the weekend to finish this up. I still gotta run wires...etc But its coming along. I got the external fuel cell from N/X with built in pump/FP regulator, so I dont need to mess with my stock fuel system. I will only be running race gas with NOS system and planning on doing some engine work over the winter before actually going all out with the kit. But we'll see

I need a bigger trunk!​

 

[FD3SNSX]

I added some colors to the ITB system while they were out. (And repolished the stacks

Here is the new center console I mocked up for all the NOS switc/accusump/purge..etc

Finished product coming soon.

Little update -

This is what caused my car on fire. Oil line rubbed against the axle.

then, two weeks later, my car caught on fire AGAIN!! small fire though!. I was coming back from Hyperfest/HIN WV, and noticed a sudden drop in oil pressure. I looked back and saw a puddle of black smoke out of my rear end...
Oil line rebuild on the shoulder!!

This is what caused it

Oil line expanded under heat/pressure and the ziptie cut through it.

Solution!

New SS lines!..Also, my boy Xavier(Tech7024) rebuilt my rear axle for me. Thanks bro!

A picture of my car still standing after two fire incidents!!

Stay tuned! more stuff coming:biggrin:

How do you not scrape with that front diffuser. Did you custom cut that yourself?

This is one of the best builds on prime. Fantastic work.
