The car is another EG Civic was a 1.3 duel carb engine but it was a rolling shell when i bought it a couple months ago but now it's a fully forged D16 ESI turbo conversion.
Will let the progress speak for what ive done so far....
This is the car as i bought it. No engine, wiring, seats etc etc had no suspension on but i had some struts laid about from other civic's me and my m8 was working on, so stuck them on so i could get it rolling
Bought a Spoon carbon spoiler
The D16 esi engine
Took the engine apart and fitted some Eagle rods and forged pistons 8.5.1 ratio, sorry no pic's of the engine been built up forgot my camera that day.
My lass bought me a 6 puck clutch and alloy flywheel for crimbo
Skunk2 inlet manifold
70mm TB
Compared the difference between the ESI TB and the 70mm TB
690cc Percission Injectors & AEM fuel rail
Sent the Inlet manifold away to be ported for the 70mm TB and fitted the engine andgearbox into the car. Also painted the engine up ready for this.
Stripped my cam cover and painted it up
Bought myself a Nice Garett turbo 63/63AR - wastegate & thermal inlet gasket
Got a cheap cast manifold and fitted them to the engine with some Black Tegiwa silcon hoses
Stripped all the cars sound deadening as this is just extra weight ( front and rear )
Got my inlet back and fitted it to the engine
Also picked up some coilover and fitted them but no pic's, i'm also doing a full engine bay wire tuck with brake tuck and have moved the battery and washer bottle into the back of the car
