I just sold my AP2 valve cover to a local AP1 guy

Who's got the hookup on coilovers?

 

what's the difference between valve covers?

 

The different design helps with oil consumption that AP1s suffer from.

 

I dont even have anywhere close to 40k and I can't get into that kind of debt right now lol

 

Dude... Start making donations to the sperm bank. We all know you beat off 20 times a day already. Might as well get paid for it

 

lol wut

 

I remember those day.

 

The AP2 covers have a different type of PCV valve. They slosh less oil on hard right handers. S2000's leave PLUMES of smoke on hard right handers. Enough to bog power.

This generally only happens at a race track.

AP2's still do it. Just a little less. You need a vented catch can to stop this. Or a baffled valve cover.

 

Crappy, poorly designed Honda engines....

 

I heard it was only on long sweeping curves where you might starve the engine of oil.
I fix this by going against traffic.

 

If you have a full crank case and are turning hard enough to starve an engine on the street:
-You have an insane set of tires
-You are lying
-Stop driving like that

 

Do you remember it like it was yesterday?


...because it was yesterday?

In reality, all you need is a catch can and to remove the oil separator system. As long as no oil gets dumped into the intake, you're fine.

Also, there shouldn't be much oil up in the valve train to cause any sort of sloshing...all that should be in the crank case.

 

On very hard right handers, it is extremely common for the oil to slosh into the breather tube from the valve cover. At high RPM and high G, the oil cannot drain back out of the head/valve cover and into the crank case.

We's got mad videos. Happens a lot. AP2's are better off...but not by much.

And yes...a catch can is a solution

 

I don't drive like that ever. I rip it here and there, but not when anyone is around. Mostly because I'm not a kid anymore, and mostly because I have a kid.

 

Most likely nearly impossible to achieve on the street. Probably a bigger issue on the track with sticky tires (R-comp or close to them) and in a long, sweeping corner?

 

Track? yes.

R comp? No.

Long sweeper? Probably. My car has only done it on long duration turns.

There is an off-camber, downhill, long sustained right turn (T10) at gingerman long config. HOLY SMOKES.

 

Roland. Less techie, more funny.

 

I thought that HOLY SMOKES was pretty funny.

 

Honestly, you've set the expectations high...that was very rudimentary humoure

 

Anybody in this thread wanna buy a set of 20x9/20x10.5 wheels?

 

Indubitably, astute observation

 

God damn comedy quotas. All day at work, I make painstakingly make prototypes and designs for mechanical testing. "STFU with the tech and make us a joke, nerd" is all I hear from anyone.

My life is hard AF.

Jk. I am VERY good looking.

 

so you name your penis life too??


whale done chap

 

I cannot say the same. When people make fun of me, they mean it. So I bought a car with a big engine to make myself feel better.

 

20's on an S

 

you are saying these don't look good?

 

My car has a 2 liter. And I'm so ugly :'(

Giver of life, maybe.

 

Got this beast on, finally. 3" all the way to the header. No rattles. LCA and swaybar cannot hit the piping unless the shock first shoots through the hatch. All the hanger geometry is set so that there's no stress on the hangers...but the exhaust is extremely stiff. Matched the bumper angle with the muffler tilt so that it looks OEM.





Its loud AF....which sucks. But...it makes power, sounds good, and it will make me deaf by the age where I don't want to hear what my wife has to say to me anyway.

So far so winning.

 

RolyPoly, nicely done.

 

Thanks man. I thought I had it done before those pics. But had to re-size the axle back section for better swaybar clearance. So...I just went ahead and cleared the EFF out of it.

 

rayce kar

 

yo rolando!


when you're rolling and polling around the gayrage, what crawler do you use? lmk.

 

Too much car talk and not enough penis jokes going on in this thread.. Did I miss something? :/

 

I have a very vintage "Jeepers Creeper" that was made in Canada in like...the 60's. Likely out of old hockey sticks and beard hair.

I don't often use it often, though. I clean the floor prior with pinesol and a pressure washer. And the floor is epoxy coated....so I can slide around pretty easily on my t shirt. This is my dad's garage though.

I also wear silk shirts with tribal flames on them and apply SO much axe body spray. I smell amazing.

Lmk.

 

You're Guy Fieri?

 

Ahh... gotcha

 

It's hard to miss my meat stick

 

I roll around the garage epoxied floors topless.

 

In normal penguin fashion, I slide around on my stomach.

 

damm so maybe instead of getting a crawler, i should just epoxy the floor...


right now it's just shitty linoleum stick on tiles that's been there for ages...
