yup... dude hates me. technically I'm not allowed to do any car work per HOA rules, but they haven't seemed to catch on. Luckily the car is off stands and shit right now, but still gonna a pain in the ass to have to wait around till the weekend to even turn the car on (get home too late from work).

Gonna knock some small stuff before deciding where to take the car.. pretty pissed about the whole car deal at the moment.

MOVE!

HOA's suck. I'd be fighting the man and listing my house for sale at the same time.

Find you a house in the woods and never look back.

I have a few tricks up my sleeve.. Yeah I wouldn't move to the sticks, not worth the extra commuting time just for occasional wrenching. And now with home prices the way they are, yeaaaah not happening.

[Kaan]

my time commuting is the same, the time of day i commute and the distance changed

we can thrash all weekend with the stereo turned up and not a single cop.

Could also throw in an o2 detector for good measure

[navin]

Yeah that still sketches me out... gonna see what I can iron out "quietly" over the week and take the car out for another spin this weekend.. time crunch is starting to catch up to have it tuned and tested before hyperfest.

Navin do you own or rent?

Welp, brakes work. Turned out that a seal was missing in between the booster + MC. Hit some VTAK as well today to test out that the motor was running somewhat right.

Car needs to hit the dynoz, alignment, and some misc odds and ends and we should be good.

[navin]

Figured I might as well update this... Car is ready for hYpeRRRRRRRRRFEST.. or so I hope. I was able to get the motor tuned + car aligned. Here are some stupid pictures.

Danger to Manifold!!!

Pretty happy with the ghetto AFR gauge mount...

Dropped the car off at MachV -- just so happens that my tuner is doing some work with them, so they were cool enough to let us use their dyno. They also aligned the car + some misc stuff that I was too lazy to do.

And for the lulz..Motor is a basic h2 Honda Challenge b16a (itr cams, intake manifold, header and intake are free). On the low end of power for a DynoJet especially, so if you ever need to get a J-spec motor I'll def. tell you where not to go!

Not terrible though for a light car. What should those numbers look like?

[D_Eclipse9916]

Is this the same car????? It looks awesome!

What's funny is that my old GSR (1.8L) motor might have made less HP than this one, haha! HP should have been around 160ish, and Torque just a few more. I'm not too worried, the air/fuels and everything else is all set, hope the motor stays together!

EDIT - thanks for reminding me, I need to roll it across the scales if time permits this weekend after the winter diet and compare it to last years weight.

:x

CF hood + got the bumper painted over winter... that's all.

[WRXtranceformed]

That's honestly not that far off, it could have been within the margin of error. Car looks good!

I think your missing power is due to it not being 100% max to the rules... if you are comparing to other H2 power numbers that is.

1. port match that bitch... might as well throw the hondata gasket isolator thingie on it
2. is your TB at the max 62.5mm? i bet its "close" but its not really
3. Adjustable cam gears
4. injectors... its not always about the amount of fuel (your tuner would have told you) but the pattern

PS- you can PM me where NOT to go lol

1. meh on port match, has the hondata gasket on the intake manifold
2. TB is the ITR TB.... I doubt .5" is going to help that much (that's what she said).
3. Spoken with plenty of the other h2 folks + a friend who just had his tuned by the same tuner, on a mustang dyno... Didn't even touch the gears
4. RDX bro

Only thing I can think of is milling the head to legal amount + using a 4-1 big tube header.

As for the motor... lets just say I should have bought from Japanese Engine Import or Honda Motors Online...

[rherold9]

I'll be happy if I can put those numbers out in my car...

[Kaan]

Don't meh on two ways to get more air... When you have the injectors to give the fuel.

If there was an option to adjust gears im not sure why he wouldn't at least try.
