Physically smiled seeing the RPF1's uncovered! I was expecting the new PF06 but was happy to see the RPF1 still getting some love. Perfect choice! And great engagement hack to put the valve cover ground in the wrong spot.😂 I came to the comments to see everyone all fired up and wasn't disappointed. Might need to double check where mine is attached now. Haha Really loving this car!

@Dibbs10101 7 месяцев назад

Was in high school when the first Fast and Furious movie came out. School went from Mustangs and pickups to lowered Civics of all sorts. This EF would had been a holy grail back then.

@Brock_Landers 7 месяцев назад

You are absolutely right! I was 18 when it came out and I had a jacked up, 302W supercharged swapped 1994 Eddie Bauer Explorer with 33x12.50s on it and a full stereo system with subs. I moved to Pennsylvania and immediately traded it for a 1992 Acura Integra GS. I also got a full leather interior swap with it along with four Kicker Solobaric 10s, a Soundstream Reference 1000w amp, and a set of ugly 17" chrome rims. I put an AEM cold air intake on it, a Neuspeed short shifter, and a full exhaust. It had 134k miles on it with cold AC, and it ran mint. About a year after I bought it I pieced together a junkyard turbo kit for it and it went on to make 257 whp @ 10 psi on an old Dodge Daytona T3 turbo. It was black with cream leather interior and silver RPF-1 rims.

The valve cover ground is in the wrong location, it has to be on the VC stud next to it. That small bolt hole is for JDM throttle cable brackets.

@speedacademydave 7 месяцев назад

we actually moved it to the back of the valve cover over to the shock tower area.

@ZacRockwell 7 месяцев назад

The back one is for power steering hose bracket, the front one is for RHD throttle cable bracket. Oem is under the front right valve cover stud . I just bolt mine to the head next to the header

@dstorm19 7 месяцев назад

The point of that ground is to give alternator ground direct to the headlights and fans through the valve cover stud. The valve cover itself is completely isolated from the rest of the engine, in most cases.

@mikey631 7 месяцев назад

Watching this series brings me back to the early 2000s, when I built my 89 EF hatch over the course of 3-4 years. It's final iteration was similar to this, but a little more hardcore, with a 2.0L GSR motor, jdm siR trans, roll bar, integra front brakes,racing seat, coilovers, etc. Was truly a track monster that was dsuper fun. And yeah, swapping those shifter bushings is a huge improvement. I'd also recommend installing a front traction bar, or at least replacing the old front radius bushings with spherical bearings. It makes a big difference with the front end stability and steering feel.

This car actually has 200k miles on the chassis. It was the cleanest EF I had ever seen, that's why I bought it. Glad it's being featured in this build. I miss it but wasn't driving it so it needed to go to a good home.

@1stGenCRXs 7 месяцев назад

Ran a B series for decades without a baffled pan at the track. K series on the other hand, it got a baffled pan before ever seeing the road! Spot on with the rake! I always setup mine to have 1/4 in but the suspension is very stiff.

Me at the beginning of this build series: "Oh, man?! Another Honda build??" Me during the last five minutes of this video: "Oh, man! Sublime....that's the stuff..."

@gooniac33 7 месяцев назад

man this takes me back!! I have had 3 EFs and really miss them both! First was a 91 Hatchback Base car with lowering springs and nothing else. it even had a 4sp trans and while it handled incredible man was it slow... until I installed a DOHC ZC and then things got interesting! But I wrecked it pretty soon after that... then got an 88 EF 4 door for $400 from a charity auction and swapped that ZC into it. Interior was stripped so man was that thing a blast! Made a weird mod by adding some ITR Rear TEIN Coilovers and left the front stock. Oddly enough the car was a blast and I put about 15k miles on that before selling it for a 90 Si with a B18C in it!! That was pretty close to what this build is and I would really love to build another! Keep up the good work and can't wait to see the numbers from the dyno! These things weigh nothing!!

@SFJCreative 3 месяца назад

I recently bought my first 4th gen Civic after wanting one for over a decade and this build series is just perfect. Looks incredible on the RPF1s with the B-series, hoping to do something similar myself soon!

i still have my 1991 civic si - owned since Junior year of High School. I'm now 45. Owned for 30 years. 88k original miles. Kaminari ground effects, momo wheels, stereo, lowered, tinted. Red. Needs a new carpet kit inside and major cleanup. Been sitting indoors and not started since 2016. Has original engine, trans. Would love to do an upgrade like this to a real SiR.

@xacoviex 7 месяцев назад

I bought a civic EF Si with sunroof in 2017 with a B18c swap (1998 type R head and 1994 JDM Gsr bloc #101 serial number) and hydraulic transmission swap S80 4.4 FD. That thing was a rocket. I put a innovative front traction bar, 4 pistons Wilwood calipers in the front, full 2.5in exhaust from Yonaka, ultra racing strut bars front and rear upper and lower. Skunk2 short shifter, Momo competition steering wheel, I had 195/50r15 Dunlop Direzza tires matched up with I believe were replicas of Spoon sports SW388. Car was black with tinted windows. I had Eibach lowering springs on KYB AGX (4 ways adjustable dampening) ... I sold it on 2021 when I had my second child... and bought a 2004 Neon SRT4. Man... I am missing that gem so much

@samagon00 7 месяцев назад

oil pan leaks: the 90s is when JDM manufacturers moved away from cork gaskets (which were amazing) and into rubber, or just straight up sealant. so a B-series with a leaky oil pan gasket is literally a gen 1 type issue. but we can't really call it that, because the move away from cork was for a very good sustainable reason, it just resulted in a lot more oil being introduced into the ecosystem while these teething pains happened. lol. for as good as cork was as a gasket, you dreaded dropping the pan, half the gasket would stick to the engine, the other half would stick to the oil pan. lots of scraping later and you could put a new gasket on and put it all back together.

For axel installation, position the C- clip opening to 12 o'clock and axles go in easily. 14 inch HX rims are lighter, made by Enkei and, in my experience, will perform better with period correct goodness.

@Patrick94GSR 7 месяцев назад

Please move that ground wire over to the valve cover stud, the OEM location. Where you put it isn’t actually grounding the head because the VC is isolated by the gasket. You can have alternator and other electrical issues around the front end of the car if it’s not attached to the VC stud in the head.

little trick I learned at the dealership is to use some grease on the snap ring before installing and this helps "hold" it in place. idk if it's a good idea, but it worked wayyy more often than leaving it dry.

Using the 90-93 Integra rear arms/hubs will widen the rear track width on these EF's. 94+ Integra arms and hubs will go in and not affect track width.
