I took mine out when I had the E36. They really wear your syncros out faster, especially in stop and go conditions.

I dont see how the clutch stop can shorten the life of the syncros when all its doing is just stopping the clutch pedal from pressing all the way in.
The clutch engagement is still the same so mechanically wise nothing has change.


With the short shifter i can see that happening as your are altering a direct component

Edit:
Atleast in my honda that is

What I have been upto the last few days

pretty lame dude, should have d15y8, and also make the miata a 4door, as a homage to your civic

Licensed, insured, tested, and off to its new home with my best friend.

Great choice with the K24. Emilio over at 949 Racing seems to regret choosing a K20 with all the extra work needed. I wish I could afford this swap! Actually, I wish I could even afford to hire Chikara for their services!

acquired the following:

Oem valve cover
BWR Tri bar
BWR vtec solenoid cover
Circuit hero shift extender
OEM honda spare key
Billet aluminum spark plug cover
buddyclub side mount seat rails

:megusta:

so it begins...

Which K24 did you go with?

Installed some 15x8 rims with 4" backspacing on my CR-V. Got some poke now. Probably a little to much once I lower it. Oh well I guess I'll go Mexiflush for awhile until I find some different rims. Guess I'll use these for my winter rims and stick some taller tires for snow driving.

Berz out.

Choose the k24a2 from a tsx. Its more costly because you would have to get the engine harness and charge harness plus k20 oil pump.

One of the best Honda motors ever made, wouldn't settle for anything less myself! If you don't mind me asking, how much did the actual complete motor cost? Because I plan on swapping in the same motor in the not too distant future once my current K24A4 wears down.

Switch over to the LCI tails

Now it bumped up to the 2012 trim :troll:

It's on the opposite side of an island from where there used to be Ralph's.

- Osaka Japan Auto parts
- JK Auto parts.

Their usual turn around time for vehicles = fast.

I always bring enough cash around so that whenever I drive nearby, I always swing by and happen to acquire nice parts whenever I need certain.

Day 2:
Samco intake arm
Samco Rad hoses
BWR Tower bar
BWR billet vtec solenoid cap
Comptech Engineering drop in Sponge filter
OEM honda type R valve cover
Motul V300
fresh transfluid

installed the circuit hero shift extender as well :megusta: because race car.

oil changed
finally got to try out the e-z drain valve
man i love it, took a second to stick my hand underneath and open it
haven't had any issues with it considering it's hanging 2 inches off the road

i took some pics but lazy to upload,

did new rotors and pads all around and a new caliper (one was seized)

also replaced axles because boots were toast and when i took the driver out it fell apart completely.

now my car vibrates under load until about 60km/h.. .fcking lordco axles :( will see about replacing them/exchanging and maybe going oem route if i have too

its a little annoying doing maintenance to make something better only to have it seem worse.

on the bright side, my car stops on a dime! :D inb4 i make a thread about being rear ended..

:ifyouknow:

Bought gas cans because the car is a gas guzzler :fuuuuu:
http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...527_224005.jpg

Then went down the border to gas up
http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...527_224835.jpg

Got about 24 gallons / 91 litres of gas and saved about 30$+ :notbad:
http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/...527_234524.jpg

According to this i get about 450km per full tank so
Thats about the same as my 21 years old 2.2l honda.lol

If you haven't done so, sign up for the Shell Fuel Rewards card! It's a minimum 3 cents savings everytime you use it at the pump :fuckyea:

No garbage bags?!!?!? :troll:

Oh man, I hate those jerry cans - slow as fuck. Do stores no longer carry ones with a separate vent?

I use those cans to fill up with E85, yes they are slow. I think the only one crappy tire sells with the vent is the narrow jeep 4x4 style one.

Jackpot, where did you buy the 25 liters jerry cans? From what I know, I have only seen and used 20 liters before.

25L Gas Can | Canadian Tire
Flo N' Go Home Filling Station, 25L | Canadian Tire

I know it might be inconvenient.. but do strap down flammable liquid in your trunk.. you are probably a safe driver but if you get rear ended...

i've always thought to do this but I don't know where to strap it onto in my trunk...pull up the sides of the bottom panel?
