Cant remember the prices off the top of my head sorry. Check ipg parts and race eng as thats where i got 90% of my stuff from .
Its cool how we get the cargo compartments and sunroofs and stuff but Australia is so tight about modifying cars. You cant lower you car lower than the height of a coke can (thats any part of the car i.e exhaust cant be lower than a coke can) , not legally allowed to do much to your car in the way of mods either which sucks !!
Im really liking your exhaust btw swap'd-D , colour is going to look sick aswell!
Im currently trying to work out what throttle body to get. Im going with a skunk2 mani (with a zc adapter... BTW if anyone else is after an adapter please put an order in because i was the first of 4 so im still waiting on another three orders before production can start :S) and was thinking of getting a 65mm TB. Im planning on making roughly 200 maybe 250hp, would a 65mm be appropriate without reducing lower end performance?
Thats what im hoping! Feeling a bit unmotivated at the moment as i havnt been able to drive the car in probably 10 months and atm im just collecting parts (waiting on an adapter plate for the intake mani). hopefully going to see a lot more progress soon though
Anybody (with experience) have some advice on TB size for me ? THANKS

Yeah you lucky bastards! That does suck about how strict they are though. I'd imagine some new cars don't pass the height standard though? Thanks for the compliments man! Looking forward to see where you take that lil ZC and the wagon!
There has been little to no updates in the last few months because i completely ran out of cash. As of yesterday i sold my civic eg and i am now going to use to money to get the wagon up and running. I am currently looking for a US site that sells OEM parts and ships to AUS (need water pump, timing belt and so on). IF ANYONE COULD RECOMMEND A SITE THAT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATE!
Got a question about the parts numbers as well, on d-series it lists the water pump as 19200-P01-004 but when i type this in to http://www.hondapartsonline.net/partlocator/index.cfm?siteid=215743 it lists it as a part for a 1995 civic. also with the timing belt is listed as a 88 prelude on d-series but when i search for it on the same website it lists it as a part for a 1991 prelude. If anyone could shed some light on this it would help me a lot because i want to order ASAP.
@SIRge the wagons got an intake fuel pump atm which i will be replacing with the walbro
@Grifty cheers for the PM.
I rekn the timing belt is gonna be right (fingers crossed), they arnt too expensive anyway so ill give it a shot and if its not right just grab another one haha
I wouldn't be too fussed about the exhaust gasket, you can reuse your own. Unfortunately that website only does Honda parts, i dont think there are any Acura dealers that are allowed to ship to Australia anymore.
For the throttle body gasket, i believe all D series are the same.
AFAIK all b, d and h series throttle bodies are interchangeable and that would lead me to believe that the throttle body gaskets are the same also. I used a b18b throttle body and gasket on a y8 intake mani without any issues. Hope this helps, if not I'm sorry
@Grifty not at all. Got the clutch on ebay. Think it cost somewhere around $200. If you need it, i can find the parts number for you. Just gotta have a look through my receipts :encouragement:
Got a semi update, ended up finding some Delta 272 regrinds off theZCR. Motor has now been at the builder for a little over two weeks. Ill try grab some pics next time i get down to the shop.
Cant wait for it to be driving!!!
