Hiya Internet peeps.
After about 8 months of looking online i located this Beagle about 650km away at the opposite side of the island, The price was too good so i bought it asap and got in the car with mr. Haydz and took off.
After a 7hr drive, and a cpl hours sleep, we took it for a quick cruise around the block and paid the guy and started the trip back up north straight away. Got it home no worries, Inside fans not blowing, power mirrors and only a couple windows working. After alot of fun got home no problems.
It's a '94 Beagle
EF5
Automatic
ZC 1.6 SOHC
with your normal jdm beagle bits minus the front bullbar and side bars.
Stripped out the interior looking for any rust. Gave it all a clean. Seats out and carpet lifted up. was barely anything to fix, just clean.
Painted the valve cover as it looked horrible.
There was a wire taking the low beam from the left headlight and sharing it to the right... Found a Relay by the radiator that smelled like electrical fire, Replaced it, Wired everything back up like it should be from factory and got my lights working on their own relays, power mirrors and interior fans back... Don't ask me how the relay fixed all that...

Also picked up some EF Civic Hatchback Suspension, and some 262mm Slotted Drilled rotors / Calipers / Hub assembly from an Integra or an EK Civic
EF Civic Hatchback Suspension
262mm Slotted Drilled rotors / Calipers / Hub assembly from an Integra or an EK Civic. :
Changed over to the new brakes and installed the lower suspension. Planning on making some top hats soon.
AAH!~
CHOO!!
Stoppers.
Check out my stick.
Grounded some wires where the auto shifter was, Ran a set of reverse lights and done.
More updates to come when they happen.
Purchased some Mugen MR-5's in excellent condition with centre caps. 15"x6" +38 offset and a set of front camber adjust. (Installing today.)
New Alternator & Battery Installed, When i pulled the motor last time i rested it on the alternator, the pulley was wobbling like crazy & shaking the dash n making a horrible squealing noise, Fixed.
Front Camber as the EK / Integra hubs gave me some mad positive camber.
As you can see in the last photo, the front has come down but with hatchback springs the rear is just too high. sooo.... Salvaged from the maroon shuttle hit by a truck, some Height Adjustable, RSR Spring & Extended Top Hat rear shocks.
From left to right 1. Unsure but off the maroon shuttle. 2. Civic Hatchback Suspension 3.Beagle Suspension.
Think i'll turn up the rear suspension height at least until i can bring the front down, as my main problem is the front are too soft and bottom out as it is. Will need to sort a new exhaust as there's under an inch clearance off the ground. But it does kink down so with a new pipe it could go lower. Good Times.
More to come...
Pulling the 4WD gear to clean it up, service. Didn't have time to put this on the 4WD Box but if it runs well i'll concider it. (using int shaft bracket ofcourse)
Going 2WD so it's atleast not on axle stands for a while.
This motor's already faster and alot more fun.
Thanks to Haydz retiring his motor, and being an easy swap.
OBD-I D15B Vtec running chipped P08. I'm using a boom-slang harness, extending a cpl sensors, dizzy adapter, OBD-I Dizzy and a Hush Performance intermediate shaft bracket.
Still using the OBD-0 engine loom with OBD-0 Injectors with the resistor box. Plan to run the OBD-I's and eliminate the resistor box, just need to dremel out the tabs so the plugs fit on them.
We had allready given the D15 a new timing belt, seals and all that jazz less than 1000km ago so it's ready to go straight in.
Changed the engine mount when it went in the other shuttle a while back etc.
It's hilarious to use the launch control to say the least...
More Updates when they happen.
Why did they stop shipping these over in the USA in 91.

EF9 Conversion, B16a package i picked up for $500.
Is this really a 94? If so, how come it looks so much like an ef and not an eg? I'm from the United States and that generation looks different here.
They were electric windows and everything so not round earlier.
EF's Stopped, but they kept the shuttle line going untill feb 1996. (non beagle too)
Then the Honda Orthea came out Feb 1996.
Or if you need any parts! my garage is too full.
Old one fits inside the h22a one... Sounds amazing, Can hear the vtec now.
OEM Intake setup wouldn't fit over the throttle body so got some goodies.
Made a cold air box out of linen stainless steel. Just need to mark/cut the intake pipe hole.
I know the pod filter / intake wont be adding power but that T/B is nuts.
For this i had to put the battery in the boot.
Looks good - Keep up the good work
