that didn't work at all for my wife's A/T. it would have bent the flex plate a LOT. i actually used a rubber/plastic strap wrench on the pulley to keep the crank from spinning and wedged it against the alternator bracket. i then took a big-ass breaker bar with extension and just turned the bolt loos...

blown engine: 115k?
unbelieveable. on the way to work today, it developed a severe rod knock. as i was coming home, the engine temp started going up, severe loss of power and it died. it would not idle or start up after that. nothing is visibly blown or leaking. sad part is, it's got 115k on it. i thought these damn th...

it's all sleeper i'll have a full damper setup (JIC flta-1?) in the next few months, and i might drop it a touch, but not much. after that, it's all go. it will get a turbo swap (most likely EJ20 from USDM wrx due to availability) and a standalone management system. fuel and turbo upgrades, header, ...

i'm not referring to adjustble lateral links, i'm referring to adjustable swaybar endlinks. the $169 is for the adjustable swaybar endlinks ONLY. it's like $850 i think for the lateral links and endlinks. the bushings on my OEM lateral links still look great anyway. i've only got ~115k on the chassis

It is off a good 5 to 6 inches, so the top should remain in its place and the bottom should come out 5 or 6 inches. holy shit man, it's no wonder no-one would touch it. :shock: 5-6inches is WAYYY off. maybe if it was an inch or two, but FIVE... DAMN. i think you need to be realistic here. even if y...

wow, i'm VERY interested in this buildup. being a former honda guy, i LOVE NA setups. please post as much as you can about it. i'm curious to know what makes it a 2.5L versus the 2.2? is it in the stroke, bore? i can't even imagine what a high CR boxer would sound like with i/h/e and big cams you WI...

turbo swaybar w/GC endlinks on my NA BF
i picked up an OEM turbo wagon rear swaybar from a legacycentral member, and installed it today. instead of swapping over new lateral links and using crappy drop links, i converted it over to the GC/WRX style "C" style endlinks. i welded on 4 "tabs" to the NA lateral links, and p...

can't you just rip it out and weld a sheet in place , then do the body work ? am i missing something ? no, it's defnitely NOT that easy. the roof is extremely thin, any welding will result in IMMEDIATE warping IMO, just remove the sunroof and plug it with a sheet of aluminum/CF/lexan/etc. honda guy...

JIC flta-1
anyone have experience with the JIC flta-1s? rates for GC6/8 are 7kg/5kg
are they adequately damped?
it will be for daily driving and regular autoX/rallyx. pricing is right, and i like the features they offer.
