Nice car but ummm.....boost gauge?

Frigg973 · 12-26-2009, 09:33 PM

when i bought the car it had a boost gauge a/f and water temp and also a apexi vafc2 but i removed it all as you can see in the one picture

Frigg973 · 12-26-2009, 09:34 PM

all the first pics are when i got it and when i had a b16 then i have recent pics of it with the h2b swap

b16 trans on an h22?

with some cleaning up of the interior and bay, and real suspension, the car would be pretty nice

Frigg973 · 12-27-2009, 09:10 PM

yes its a b16 trans on a h22 and i didnt put the suspension on it was like that. in the future coilovers are going on it and as far as engine bay im going to remove the remaining ac lines and redo the valve cover

lownslow95 · 12-27-2009, 09:22 PM

Looks clean. Get that lip resprayed.

Frigg973 · 12-27-2009, 11:32 PM

i will when i respray the whole car.. i work for a body shop so i can paint it whenever really

mg23 · 12-27-2009, 11:46 PM

looks good, nice to see another em1 on this site

sundaybikes · 12-28-2009, 01:36 AM

a ls or gsr trans would probably make more sense with that motor, unless you like fewer mpg's and more tirespin

Frigg973 · 12-28-2009, 01:57 AM

thanks and how would that make more sense? its an all motor build you would want shorter gears.... gsr wouldnt be bad but ls is more for boost because its geared longer.... if i wanted more mpg i can just throw a type r final drive in the b16

the b16 trans is almost too short for a b16 haha. youre right though an ls would be too long but i think a gsr would help put your higher power to the ground better.

and whats a rough estimate on a respray (same color) for my integra?

Frigg973 · 12-28-2009, 08:13 PM

gsr wouldnt be bad but the b16 is doing just fine... i dont really do side jobs anymore due to the fact i dont have anywhere to paint outa of .. i cant paint out of my job anymore so unless you have a spot to spray out of cant really help you there.....

BigWhiteTodd · 12-29-2009, 03:46 PM

is that h2b with no plate if so have fun hope you have AAA.

Frigg973 · 12-29-2009, 06:21 PM
