Say 'Hello' to a hot shift knob....hehe, I've got a metal shift knob and a short shifter on in my car and the exhuast keeps it nice and warm in the summer. It also likes to rub on the exahuaust when it rains.....don't ask, the only thing I can think if is that it contracts quickly.

If you have a rattle, firgure out if it's in the inside or the outside. If it's inside, you'll likely just need to see if a panel's loose. If it's on outside, get under the car and see if things are tight. Wiggle the exhaust (when it's cool obviously), check the suspension, heatshields etc.

Heatshields are notorious on any car for rattling, but they usually just require a quick tightening with a wrench. Easy 10 min. fix.

[frozenrice]

I know on mine, it was a baffle inside either the cat or the resonator (I can't remember which one). I ended up junking it all and upgrading to larger diameter piping and high flow cat and stuff.

Quasar, good find. I wish I had thought of that instead of getting those other tips welded on.

[Moonracer]

I had my heat sheild removed and that stopped one rattle but there was still another. Turned out to be the cat. It was toast and the stuff inside was bunged up and that was rattleing.

The tach looks like it's from a 90-91. It has it's redline around 6600.

Anyone else see this?

[GT2NV]

as far as i know unless you have Vtec your redline should be around 6600rpm in the G2teg. i don't think they changed the gauge clusters between the years

[freakin]

The clusters are different from 90-91 and 92-93. They have a cleaner look to the 92-93 and the redline is a slightly higher 6,800 on the tach (the motor cuts out at 7,000RPM, trust me, hehe). Take a close look at the lines between the numbers. They're small and there's more of them. And of course, there's the GSR clusters that go to 8,200 RPM and the JDM clusters that have KM/H only and the speedo only goes up to 180 instead of 210.

90-91 cluster:

92-93 cluster:

Just to be a dink, my 92-93 JDM XSi cluster being installed (VTEC BIATCHES!) :poosie:

I hit a patch of ice while going hard in second. I swear the tach went up to 7200 on that one. Hopefully that never happens again.

No we gotta do that at the track, way more fun and safe. :thumbsup:

I had to bail early that day. I wish I had stuck around for the twisties. Hopefully we get something like that again. Mind you comming back down 22x from Powderface with Dave and Phil chasing me was pretty fun . :burnout:

At least you got to go to Banff......I'm definately in for the next one. You guys think there'd be any interest in doing a Calgary/Edmonton G2 meet sometime this year?

[Moonracer]

There's already a 403honda meet in the works for the mountains with bbq! Consider that one as well. Clicky (http://forums.403honda.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=336387#post336387)

It's a great time to do a valve adjustment and replace the cam seal. I'd buy an aftermartket one though.....the leak is a factory installed option I believe. :poosie:

Basically just pull the plug wires and unbolt it. Probably not a bad idea to get a new gastket for when you put it back on as well.

[gen2teggy]

oh man...whats going on now??? hahah im never online

[b16Ateg]

you can reuse your gasket if its still in good condition.. like mine.. heheh

Don't worry about it too much. We all had to start somewhere. I don't exactly have too much going under the hood compared to some of the other guys. Simplest way to get around it is not to open the hood LOL.

[Vick7]

[lam-boy]

mines dirty, and I'm too lazy to clean it :poosie:

Is yours for sale? What parts do you have?

[b16Ateg]

i have the turbo and some other stuff but i'm selling the turbo.. cos i want to go with a brand new one if all well works out if i can budget it with the baby coming.. but ya.. its a t3 with a crysler flange.. if oyu want pics of it ask me on msn and i will send them..

its not a bad turbo but not what i'm really looking for cos i want a t3super60 or something but i want brand new.. which is going to cost me 800 around there and i'm gettin rid of this for around 100

[frozenrice]

I'm interested. How'd you get the turbo flange to work with the exhaust manifold? I'm planning on keeping my air and p/s so I'm limited to the kinds of manifolds that I can get.

[GT2NV]

vick let me know when you wanna go pick up that mr gasket dress up kit:bigpimp:

[b16Ateg]

i dont have the manifold for it you have to get one custom made at a crysler flange and your a/c might have to go with a turbo cos it would be pretty tight.. but i dunno its just the turbo really

i'll trade you parts for turbo? what do you think?

[Moonracer]

Hey drew, that dizzy is shot too. :( Went to acura and talked to a tech and he confirmed my suspision. A new dizzy which only comes as a housing is over $400. Then you would have to add the guts out of the old one. I'll keep looking for a used one for now. Thanks though, we tried. ;)

[b16Ateg]

ya sandino i will look and see how much i paided at harbour auto for ya.. i can remember it was cheaper than that i think

Sandino, go talk to Pat at Speedtech. When I was telling him about my distributor going a while ago and how it cost me close to $700 to get it on the road again, he mentioned that he had a few kicking around. I'm sure he'd let them go for a reasonable price. I think I'll be up there tomorrow, so I can ask him for you if I remember.

Logan, send me some pics of that turbo and some specs if you can. I might be interested in it as an upgrade for my other car.

jeez Sandino, I forget where I bought mine for the b16a but it was like $350 shipped from the states. Im in Vancouver at the moment, but Ill check the name on the box when i get back. Also, I might be able to sell you the one from my parts car which is an obd 1 B18A.

JDM source and customauto might have some kicking around. maybe try A1 honda?

i didnt' think i paid that much for my dist..but i just looked at the bill and it was 600 installed.. what was i thinking.. god..lol

[freakin]

Yep, I didn't have a choice at the time. I needed the car running asap and didn't have anyone else to turn to. In retrospect, I'd have done it myself. I just didn't have the time or knowledge back then.

i don't really like the look of them unless its a darker colored car ( black housings) just to much contrast

And just to let you all know that i finally do have shocks coming. i am going with KYB AGX 8 way adjustable. to bad my supplier has to get them right from KYB i should have them installed in a month when i get them but her better late then never and just in time for spring

I guess it kinda sounds throaty!

If it's decent outside we'll meet at the upper west side and if crappy, the lower underground west side. There's two levels down there I believe but it's the lowest level. And ya meet at 11am and probly start rolling out around 11:20 to wait for any latecomers.

Sandino,
I finally got around to checking with Pat. He doesn't have one, but he thinks he may know of someone that does. I'll wait until he gets back to me with a price, but he was under the impression that it would be a little on the pricey side. Sorry man.
