Engine Rebuild. Completed.

Hi Guys!

I took my car today from the garage. Finally the project is completed.

By the way, i still remember that last engine rebuild/overhaul was done back in May 2009. During 2009, my project was quite crazy..  using VTEC parts etc. Yeah, I'm quite crazy at that time. Wanna try new things. HEHE.

For 2014, no more crazy project like last time. Using back all 4G93 and MIVEC parts. Bought back 4G93 connecting rods and crankshaft ( because i sold my rods and crank to a person from oversea back in 2010 TT ). Change my VTEC 81mm piston to MIVEC 82mm over-sized high compression piston. Other parts can be seen from my previous post...

My 1.9L MIVEC (1881cc)

By the way, this is my valve cover/rocker cover. Look quite nice with the wrinkle effect right? :p HEHE

spray with Gox7 wrinkle spray.....

A closer view of the texture............

All i can say, i am very happy with the new setup. After breaking in the engine ( using dyno machine to break-in the engine... thanks to the technology :p), My mechanic did dyno tuning to the engine. Seriously i am very happy to see the horsepower gains (secret :p). The response is astonishing!

Voila!!!!

Cusco Oil Catch Tank

Hi guys!

I'm in holiday right now so i have a lot of time to spend with my machine and this make my hands very itchy to buy stuff. I think i cant stay at home without doing nothing. So i bought an oil catch tank and DIY it at home.

It took me about 2 hours to install this oil catch tank. It looks easy but the hardest part is to find suitable place to put the tank. Since my engine bay is quite full, so i have to take out my standard air-box to fix the tank beside the fuse box. The oil catch tank looks better there than where i put it before ( beside power steering tank ).

Hmm.. Its an eyesore for me to look at the engine bay without the standard air-box. I prefer standard bay looks because i dont want to attract the authorities. They might think that i use the car for illegal street racing. LOL, just kiddin'. Do you guys spot the condition of my cold air intake? It is broken already! Need to find a new one as soon as possible.

regards.
