13310-RK2-A01 (3.7 crank from MDX/ZDX/TL)

 

Thanks. I would have liked to powder-coated the parts but im trying the paint out. I used Rust-oleum Metallic Engine Enamel (BlackNight).

 

Time for winter mods.


Got any hints as too what we are to expect in the next few months kris?

 

Videos or it never happened.

































Please.

 

 

 

With any luck, long tube headers, full standalone, stretch the fenders 2" for 3" lips for the RH C2's, and redo the hood/grille/bumper

 

Doesn't sound like a bad plan for those long winters up there.


Are you ever going to throw boost at the beast

 

Nope. At one point i was, but after my knifeedged 3.5 crank was damaged and as it turned into a 3.7 boost went out the door. I liked the idea of NA. If i were to do it again id probably go the FI route.

 

That sounds like Sex.... Shit REVs stupid quick!

 

Like i said in post 1158, Throttle response is incredible. Wait till the long tubes.

 

 

So... who will inherit the car? Those revs seem too easy to reach for the motor. Next video must contain Vtec crossover

 

It gets up there quick. As soon as its broken in ill get a vid of that

 

 

Long tubes....too bad you never take enough pics of your endeavors

 

What pics am i missing with this one?

 

I want to see so many damn pictures it might as well be a video.

 

better get to some driving then..

 

So kris your not the only one to snap a knock sensor. Fml

 

Those things break SO easy. I broke the one on the J32a2 i pulled out of my car by just unplugging it. And its not that its hard to replace, just a pain because of having to remove what you have to just to get to it.

 

I took a ton of pics. But each step of the assembly, hands were usually oily and once in the grove i didnt want to stop.

Here are all the pics i took along the way

Got 200 miles on it. Going to change the oil out and start driving it a little harder

 

My wife didnt like coming home to seeing this written on the driveway in front of the garage

 

Lmao thats awesome. Well worth a night on the couch.

My knock sensor broke while I was putting the runners back on. I didn't even touch the damn plug, I pulled the cable by mistake and heard a crunch. I freaked out at first til I noticed the nut was still there and was an easy fix

 

Meh, IF she ever said you are sleeping on the couch to me, id Either A.) Go sleep in my mancave downstairs B). Go spend the night in the garage tinkering with the car or something (Time of year doesnt matter, Its heated/cooled, tv, stereo, fridge with beers and sodas for mix drinks) or C). Go get the nicest hotel room available with a hot tub in it and bring the above said beers/supplies for mix drinks with and go relax for the evening


I think between a little age and the heat it sees down in the valley the plastic just gets brittle.

 

damn, i'm gonna have to see this thing in Spring sometime

 

Yess

 

 

Almost 500 miles and it keeps feeling stronger.

 

Its all in your head. Your just giving it more gas and not noticing as you do.

 

Whats with the avi? Did yummy or legobrian strike again?

 

And now that there are more ECU options for the HonData Flash Pro im soon to be converting the wiring to be able to tune it

 

Negative. Though i am giving it more gas now too

 

Mmmmmmm tunable....only took 10 years.

 

went through this whole thread & it just keeps getting better, 3.7 is just

 

fsttyms1 found it!!!!!! I did not even think to look in this thread. So what has to happen to run Hondata??? Harness and ECU from 07+?

You can use various cars now for wiring, and ECUs. The big thing (if you arent opposed to using a soldier iron) you can use a Auto ECU and convert it to a manual ecu (modification is only needed for cruise to work) Having said that though, auto guys are screwed as this wont work for autos.

 

Thanks fsttyms1 I will have to keep up with you on this, seen where you picked up an ECU. Will we have to change out our cluster and wiring harness like youngone did since we are 2G TL?

 

Ohhh this is an interesting development. Another ECU option, hmm...

So basically this ECU will work with a Gen 1 J series engine, so that would work well for the 2G TL cars.

But I'm not sure if our cluster uses the same signal as the 3G ECU. Definitely will keep an eye out for updates.
