thedb63's da build thread

i will try again?

well i guess i should start with the way i had the car before…
last year i had a b16a2 that i ended putting in

i ended up putting in nitrous

picture of the engine bay complete


ended up trading my track r’s for some slips

got rid of the whole b16 set up ripped the b16 head off and put it on a b18c block with pr3 pistons in it “poormans type r” also had gsr cams in… that lasted a day i spun a bearing due to a piece of plastic or paper getting caught up in the sump (engine just got sent to the machine shop yesterday)
i ended up selling the nitrous and bought a b18b1 engine and also bought a turbo kit…here are some pics of it installed “mesy”


i like this pic of the intercooler and the vis cf hood

so car was pretty much ok for now until i was at a friends house and had the girlfriend go warm up the car…she ended up turning the key while the car was in gear and the whole car turned over and ran in the hitch of a dodge ram… (yeah my car used to be a automatic and didnt have the clutch safety switch) and she didnt know that at the time…any ways, my tranny didnt sound so great after that and my hood and radiator support was crumbled up… i wish i would of took pics… but i have none of the hood, but here is one of the support

on a new note im wire tucking my engine bay relocating my battery trying to get a 88-91 civic/crx nonpower steering rack and seeing what else i can do… here are some pics of what i got going on so far this was the past two days


fenders are off
