Under construction.
THE FIRST BUILD
Build started out as a Jdm h23 vtec swap into a Cg5 accord you can see it wrecked in photos from the tow yard
Wasn't my fault got a payout. Bought back car as salvage to start again. (big thanks to my mates for helping and storing the motors during the first build) will try to dig up photos of that.
THE NEW PLATFORM
Bought EK sedan, Came with a mexi spray job, Not terrible but has flaws. Is a color shift goes from purple to black has a bit of gold flake in it. car was well taken care off no rust and no big interior flaws. a few surprises, like a front quarter replacement can see it was in a small accident as passenger side quarters have some gaps nbd can fix. everything else is still oem they had different wheels and a exhaust that they hastily swapped back. we will get to that later.

2000 HONDA EK SEDAN BUILD
5/30/20
Photos of motor getting pulled
(3/13/2021)
Update time, things are moving forward now. Balance shaft delete is getting buttoned up and i have a few pics of the process.
oil pan removed
balance shafts out
oil girdle/gallies removed from end caps. you can see some of the oil ports with hollow dowel pins, Some of these are removed and solid dowels pressed in to plug the oil ports for the shafts. This will increase oil pressure. There was also some tapping on the main line but we are going to remove the end caps again and drive the tap a lil deeper.
making some press bushings at work and taking measurements on the crank plate.
pushing out seals trying to ghetto drive in the smaller of the plugs.
the larger plugs where to stubborn to be driven in with a dead blow so we resorted to a bottle jack and a large solid steel "anvil" assembly.
the finished crank plate with plugs pressed in ready for reassembly
More updates in bound.
(3/14/2021)
main line plug.
Reassembly
Buttoned up
(10/24/21) Been awhile, didn't take as many photos as i had planned, to busy with things. Also dont remember when what was done. But here is more progress snaps.
(unknown date) D Series coming out
H series going in
taking out the dash to get to fire wall, Need to cut a whole for the shifter cables, D/B series trans are solid shift linkages, defiantly more rewarding to use, very solid and honestly may go H2B in the future. How ever, accord trans (p series) Are so cheep and im going to be banging gears really hard so if they fail its only 100-200$ for a replacement. just swap over the lsd and final drives nbd.
`````````````````````````````````````````````` STYLE POINTS
Acura Integra LS Mesh wheels Cant see in this picture but the car sits on Hankook ventus concept II's 205/50/15
Also has a 3m 1080 carbon wrap on the trunk

FG1 COUP DAILY
(12-11-20)
So its been almost 6 months since the last update. I live in a liberal state and as such, have to work around the covid madness. But lets be real, projects take back seats all the time. And i got quite a few going at once.
Not to be defeated, ill just add another one.
Ah la, The FG1 Manual Coup.
Basically the Poor lil d16, as d16's want to do. disintegrated her head gasket. Now im not a lazy man, but i am practical. Im not going to take the heads off, and fix a 300k mile motor just to pull it out and scrap it for a bigger bader built one.
Instead i just let it melt a few plugs, blow some hoses, over heat and die, Run it on three cylinders. And finally in a last gasp of breath, blow the water pipe completely apart.
So now i got the fg1 to be my DD. Shes got some beauty marks and a load of clear coat scratches. But shes only 112k miles, a manual, and fantastic gas mileage. I have ideas for it, but its at the bottom of the list.
BUT! i must show it some love. So here is the new shifter.
And a few family shots.
Thats my update as of now. Making moves in life and hopefully, these moves will open up more time and money for the hobbies...
(unknown date)
Replacing passenger side wheel bearing.

Can't wait to see how this pans out. I fucking love EK Civic's.

thanks for tuning into the build.
originally the plan was to find a 5th gen prelude to just drop the motor in. But now its evolved into some more complicated swap action.
