Been a while since I posted the progress of my P.O.S.
Just finished up installing a new water pump, arp head studs and extending my oil distribution block, allowing me to attach it to the firewall....easier access....got tired of trying to cram a wrench down beside the oil filter....had to lengthen the oil sender(dummy light) sensor some to reach....but all is well..
I am waiting on my Profab/Hondata gasket to arrive, so I can slap on the head and intake mani and get it torqued down...
Once thats on, I will grab some cam gears and get the timing belt on and aligned....
With that out of the way...its time for turbos and manifolds.....then fabbing my downpipe and what not....
Finally some injectors and the dreaded wiring.....old harness is hacked all to H3lll.....(old dsm injectors).....
With that all done, oil feed/return and all the vacum lines.....should be close to tuning...
Laterz..... 8)
thats the best part tho.. once everything comes in an you have boxes a mile deep.. it gives you some motivation seeing everything there an wantin to see it on and in action.

Yes sir. I am starting my mechanical engineering program now. I just finished Northwestern before christmas and I'm here for a couple semesters then off to OU. But yep, I had class there till 3:15. I don't know about EVENING, but if it was before 3:15 then yes.

Thank ya. It runs mean for an N/A engine. I LOVE it though. Shifts smooth as hell. AS soon as it hits 6 grand vtec screams and then I usually shift about 8200 and it'll drop right back to 6 through every gear. Plus the ASPEC package handles excellent. (Designed by the gentleman who designs the suspension for the NSX's)
But thanks for the props. I need to get rid of my injen sticker. I was looking for some sponsorships when I put that up and eveyrthing just seemed to sketchy so I turned it all down. But OH WELL.
RSX' are sweet.. Jason had umm I think exhaust an intake on his when I drove it.. it'd chirp a pretty good 3rd as long as you kept it in the upper rpm range, like you said
you gona be out & about in town tonite?

I'm sure I probably will. Depending on whether or not my girlfriend wants to be a bitch. But I'm sure I'll be in pburg. <text removal edit by RobbieNelson> Ha ha. If she's with me, then I'm not allowed to though. :(

And yeah, 3rd gear is definately where the rsx's shine. 1st is weak, 2nd okay, 3rd puts you in your seat. I just can't wait to put some boost behind it.
lol i schucked 2nd out of my tranny the other nite.. so i just kinda cruise if im out. it sux havin to skip shift 1st to 3rd.. good thing i got a shitload of torque lol
