Wrecking Monster DA6

[Monster]

Hey Ive been working on this DA6 for just over a year now and thought I should start a thread to let people know what Ive done.

Its a 89 DA6 I got of some surfer dude for $2000 stock standard. When I got it it had no vtec. A quick oil change fixed that.
To bring you all up2 spec Ill list what Ive done up2 now.
By the way most of the shit on my car Ive made cos Im a fabricator welder and if I can make it I will. you will see in some of the photos.

B16a gen1, custom airbox, 60mm throttlebody, portpolished the runners in intake manifold and opened up intake, custom 3'' stainless intake pipe, K&N xstream filter, strut brace,weld brace behind bumper, 45mm thich alloy civic radiator, vtec prelude front brake upgrade with bedix ultimate pads, daiyama coilovers, custom 2 1/4 inch exhaust straight under fuel tank low as fuck, custom c-pillar brace custom rear strut brace and a brace in back of boot like type Rs have, chipped ecu, cam fc, and custom alloy pannels in dash, type R shifter and knob, battery in boot, no A/C no heater, realy not much of fuck all. Stripped all the weight I could find. Racetech 4000 seat, momo 4 point cam lock harness, toyo r881 205 55 r15, Im sure there are more things Ive forgoten. Aw yeh and seem welding.

Im not sure how to load up the big photos so just bear with me till i figure it out.

More pixs of SIMM09, Aw yeah I did foget some thing Jun 3.8kg chrome molly flywheel, that mad a big differance, made teg rev up way faster.

[Monster]

On last count I think it worked out at 910kgs, but I have done all the braces and metal work so Im not sure of the weight now.

[Monster]

This is when I got it

[IVTECU]

Looks good mate (now...lol) Looks like you've done a fair bit to it

What other plans you got in the pipeline?

[Monster]

Wana put my lsd in for next trackday and finish of the B18CR hybrid Ive got and slap that in. Wana get round to caging it, Its pretty much a never ending project and just keeps evolving into new ideas.

[IVTECU]

Sounds cool, good luck with the rest of the build

This Flywheel I got from 41 automotive. Im driving the black da6 to work cos the red gen2 da6 I got for daily drive has shit the dizzy and now the black da6 rev counter has fucked out, so I put a new dash cluster in, that I know works and rev counter still not working. Any ideas.

[bOOd]

could it be the speed sensor?

could it be the speed sensor?

I think It could be something with dizzy maybe.
