the wonderful brown man (and i don't mean smartass :gayhi5: ) dropped off some new parts today. i'm actually going to start to take apart the car friday night after work because my current motor is taking a dump. who wants to help lift the motor outta the basement? jaybro? wayne? jeffos? glenn? smoothie? hahaha jk

a wha dis?



my XTD 6 puck clutch came in:



also my RC eng. 750cc injectors too



if you look closely, there's 3 ports for fuel to come out of instead of one on the stock injector; pretty cool:



and after some hardcore swearing, i finally coaxed the O rings into place on the manifold :*****:

 

wow ur putting alot of money into your car


and

its coming along great


and im jealous lol

 

let us know how you like that XTD clutch. i hear some good things about them for the price you pay. but it's always good to hear from people with real world expeince with them not just what other people have "heard"

more importantly let me know how the 6 puck ceramic disc is for daily driving.......

looking good so far!

750cc's......mmmmmm.....good for 475-500whp.......crank it fuzz!!

 

,looks good dude wow 750 cc injectors thats insane!

 

fuzzy let me know if you want help dude...give me a shout...

 

You're going all out man - Id like a ride in the finished product. Also if you really do need help getting the motor to where you want give me a shout.

 

Fuzzy,

You may have installed the injector O rings incorrectly...

Step 1: The rings that come with the injectors get inserted into the intake manifold (no force required)

Step 2: The fuel rail is placed between the injectors and the manifold (no force required)

Step 3: Screw down the fuel rail and seal up the O rings.

You do not use the old factory O rings. The RC O rings do not fit over the injector the way the OE rings do. They seal at the base of the injector. This is how RC recommends installing them. From the picture it looks like you have the OE rings still installed… that is what lead me write this.

Nice clutch!

 

Atta boy Fuzz... looks sick!

fuzz if you need help lifting, call in real men, the yo crew

 

I was gonna write something similar! Also, where is the upgraded/pretty fuel rail?

 

it looka like a man!

 

edit: your right, i diden't get any instructions with it but i figured it out, they weren't in the fuel rail right. good thing i diden't dremel them too much. i gotta stop working on the motor when i'm tired :P

fixed:



thanks doug, my mind has been going a mile a minute lately :confusedo


oh and wayne, the rice fuel rail is on it's way :finger: ...i hate waiting on shipping

i also thought i'd buy the rest of the OEM parts, so i went buck again at acura. picked up:

-OEM timing belt,
-oil pan drain bolt
-all new oil pan bolts
-all new bolts for the oil pump
-new OEM fuel filter
-new OEM ignition rotor
-new OEM distributer cap
-new intake manifold bolts (all)
-new exhaust manifold bolts (all)



i just realized.......that i replaced every single nut/bolt on this motor :wtf:

 

Im running the stage 1 xtd clutch. Feels like the oem clutch, and hasn't changed one bit since i first installed it. For the price i think it's really good.

nice stuff fuzz

 

u R going MeNaTaL with this car/engine Fuzz!!!

be mindful, power corrupts

 

No problem... I was dealing with the same issue a few months ago

 

WOW man i cant wait for this to get down and dirrrrrty on the streets, looking real good man

 

Any plans on upgrading the suspension?
Good work man and if you need help on lifting the engine, call the YO crew.

 

Now you just gotta change every body panel to get rid of the rice :finger: :laugh1:

 

Now you just need to do something about the nut behind the steering wheel.

:finger:

 

It'll look good hardparked.

 

You know fuzzy is a

 

i'll help supervise

 

Well Friday I am working then heading straight up to Cayuga with some people, but if you need help Saturday let me know

 

Just eat some PUMPKIN and lift in up the stairs :laugh1:

 

Fuzz, that is some serious coinage in the mo-tar bud!! It's going to be crazy nice when installed, I may be able to lend a hand with the basement extraction, although I ain't no Yo!!

 

How's it coming along???

 

woah 750cc thumbs up im going to have 310cc soon but im having second thoughts of putting it into my car coz it might max it out lol ..... im pretty sure ur TURBOd

 

Very impressive Fuzz.

Hats off to your dedication. Good luck, I want to see this finished.

 

diden't get a chance to drop the motor because of a last min. family thing. but i did start to pull out all the unnessary crap like AC, cruise controll. i'm still waiting on my fuel rail, 3 inch catback w/high flow cat and a prop valve and i'll be good to go. :*****:

 

If you're doing boost, you're really likely to run a high duty cycle with 310's. depends on your setup and how many psi you're running. if you're doing all motor you should be good to 200+
