Sup guys!? Got a question you want me to answer on the video I'm making for 50k subs?? Leave that question here and I'll answer it on the video!!
Why are you only attracted to the 5th gen Civic and earlier? Never seen you make a video on an EK or EJ. Just curious.
Will you ever do a turbo build in an EF?
What is your current favorite in your stable? Also, with all of the EF's you have had, what has been your favorite engine and transmission setup?
What do you think about 4th and 5th gen accords? Have you ever owned/worked on one? Would you build one now?
Thought on ever doing an ep3 or sedan? I know ep3 are the bastard child's of si's but I love em, my first si haha
I don't care how many rebuild honda time laps are on youtube, they never get old
I hear that!
Yeah, I enjoy working on them too
Hey man. Long time Honda guy... I ended up with an NSX and slowly forgot what it was like to be a real honda guy. I picked up an old CB7 that i fell in love with. I fell in love with being a honda guy all over again. Your videos really helped me fix a shit ton of things on the old girl. ty.
Love to hear it man, it's like I'm right there next to you!
Canada here...yup, teach the youth lol, you n I know.. what one man can do...another man can do...
Right on!
I appreciate you guys saving another Honda. Hey if he has the vtec e see about swapping to a z6 head before the supercharger. Super jealous on that Jackson racing supercharger. The e is the econo VTEC so reverse of performance. Can't wait!
Absolutely! He's working with what he has for now. Hoping to get this car a little faster in the future!
Watching your vids has finally gotten me off my rear end to get my 89 Si hatch back to road worthy. Going solo, would be so much better with friends!
Excellent, it really is, but honestly I'll be outside by myself 80% of the time. My own personal quarantine. 😀
Those tires are great but they are LOUD. I had them on my EF and it sounded like I was being followed by a small engine airplane. I just bought a set of the Federal 595 RS PROs for my GTI which are an updated version of the RSR-R with way less noise. They are super grippy. The EJ and EG chassis are my favorite old school civic I think.
Thanks for the feedback!! I don't know if he'll care, but we'll see. I'm interested in trying out their updated tire also, I loved how these felt when my friend in the silver crx let me borrow his car for the day in this video. Forgot to add the link. czcams.com/video/N791C2-wlgU/video.html
@@GarageBuiltHondas The price and performance of the RSR-R far outweighs the noise to me honestly. The grip was great for the money on my EF with Ksport Kontrol coilovers and Konig Wideopen wheels. The RS PRO are amazing on my GTI so far. I actually went to a 16" wheel and 205/45/16s and 330 w/tq, I can't spin 2nd anymore.
a supercharger :))) cant wait to see this.. welcome to the jrsc family. great content as always Jon
Thanks, should be fun!!
Loving the wheels, black and gold theme cant go wrong there 👍🏾
Agree, it looks so good!
Killer rebuild. I wanted to do this with an EJ1 I found at an auction. I've got a soft spot for those.
You didn't get it?
@@GarageBuiltHondas nah with fees and everything it was going to be a bit much. I'll keep my eyes peeled for another.
I hear that
Finally a ej civic I would love it if you build one for track use
😎👍
If it were me i would have just pulled the motor out to do all of that stuff easier and in one swoop. I hate working on that stuff with the engine in the bay lol. Mainly cause you had the knuckles off anyway. (Not that im trying to tell you how you should have done it. Just talking out my ass a bit.)
👍😁
Saw you replaced the rear main while in there, any tips on removing the old one easily? I love that you're resurrecting these old Hondas!
You can use a flathead with a good sharp tip and work it around. Just be extra careful not to damage any of the aluminum that holds it in place. Just do it with care and patience it’ll come out. Some of the old school guys do it a little differently, they take a screw and in the center of the seal they just run in the screw a little bit until it bites the seal pretty good then just get a clip removal tool or a pair of pliers and yank on the screw it’ll come out.
To put the now one in just place it as straight as possible and tap it into place using preferably a seal installer tool but you can do it with something like a dead blow rubber mallet or a piece of wood and tap it with a hammer. You want the seal flush around all sides and not crooked
Could use a pick or something that’s hooked and slim as well to get behind the seal from the inner sealing area that seals the crankshaft ... put in the pick..turn it...and pull. Boom seal comes out.
Zeisan Shima I would advise against this method as you could gouge the metal surface if your not careful and cause leaks in the future.
One tip I have seen is drilling a screw in the middle of the seal and pull on the screw. I was just wondering if garage built Honda’s had a better method.
Thanks for the reply 👍
Zeisan Shima lol I see we were typing the same thing at the same time. Good tips 👍
5:20 that’s what it’s all about right there! Good times, brotherhood, companionship, positivity and learning and growing. Had a GSR swapped EJ1 that sadly rusted out from too many Midwest winters, but this brings me way back Jon.
They are fun. It's nice because as you get older it's hard to find time to spend with friends. This helps!
Garage Built Hondas I feel you in the limited time for friends, we do our best to make a few meet ups a month but with the current situation it’s been tough. Keep up the content it’s been great and the garage is badass man!
How much you want to bet.. That was a 10 mm socket under that tire...
Hahaha
Hell, I've found 10mm sockets on the ground in parking lots before. I replaced the one I had lost, by picking up the one someone else lost.
👍😁
Looking good . Ton of work got done. I remember when i picked up a eg hatch with a b series in it. Wasnt driveable because flywheel bolts backed themselves out.
Interesting. Must not have torqued them correctly
Damn I miss my old coupe. Clutch.
My favorite EG body style right here too!
Great progress guys, do you guys ever glean the dirty engine bays? I’m all for a clean engine bay, a clean engine is a happy engine
We really need to, and will. This one needs it!!
It's totally impressive and amazing how people know so much about cars and engines. How to repair and fix. It's amazing. Great work. Great job.
Really kind words. Thanks!!
Excited to see where this build goes! Dont forget to remove the AC Receiver Drier from the front core support ;) I would have bought this car fir $500 too as its so clean compared to midwest cars.
Thanks buddy! We did after we dropped recording, also removed the wiper fluid reservoir also. 👍
I have a set 5zigen and I love mine.. i really like those.... the car is truly a come up.. ?! love the footage!!
Thanks buddy!
Satisfying seeing a cheap civic take shape after a little care from the right sets of hands. #garagebuilthondascertifiedpreowned lol I swear if I could trade in my job at Toyota to do basically nothing but save cool older imports all day I’d do it in a heartbeat lol.
You and me both!! If CZcams was my job, I'd be out here 4-5 days a week!!
Love the Z1's! I have a bit of a weird obsession with them haha, if you guys run into any drive-ability issues message me. The Z1's are really particular about what you do to them as the vtec-e is a 3 stage fuel economy vtec. Before vtec-e engages at around 2400-3200rpm depending on throttle, it is running in a 3-valve per cylinder operation. Once vtec-e activates it is in 4-valve normal operation. They're really fascinating yet simple in terms of how Honda designed them to operate in lean-burn. California models use a 4-wire o2 without lean-burn, the rest use a 5-wire o2 which is essential for the lean burn operation, it's quite interesting what Honda tried in the 90's.
How do you think it would react with the supercharger installed?
@@GarageBuiltHondas I feel that would boil down to which ECU you decide to run the engine with mainly. With the original p07 ECU you'll be running really lean up until v-tec engagement and will have a 6200rpm rev-limiter. I believe the Z1 would most likely benefit being ran off of a chipped p28 or similar ECU since that would change the fueling and rev-limiter, but you might need to change fuel injectors at minimum as the OEM Z1 injectors are 180cc compared to most of the D series models being 240cc. The Z1 should be okay with an increased rev-limiter as it uses d16 137mm length rods on a d15 sized crank journal, so you have a higher rod-to-stroke ratio than most other d-series for less friction during operation. Might have to re-grind or swap the cam for more performance in the higher revs, but not too sure as to which. The Z1 is one of the only D's that has a roller-rocker valve train as well for quieter operation. Compression is 9.3 to 1 where the Z6 is a 9.2 to 1. The Z1 is essentially the 1.5 liter model of the D16Z6 as they share many of the same parts. The Z6 uses a 104 tooth timing belt and the Z1 uses a 103 tooth belt but the same tensioner, and both use a TD-42u distributor. Also keep in mind you might need to port match most manifolds that aren't the OEM Z1 intake manifold to the head as the Z1 has the smallest intake ports of any d15.
You really are the expert! Lol
Love the info, thank you greatly. His charger came with upgraded injectors and a chipped p06 that the previous owner was using but I don't know if he knows what engine the charger was on as he bought it online off Facebook. The car has a p28 installed so he has that option too. I guess we'll try the chipped ECU after we get it installed. It'll be interesting to see. I don't have any experience with superchargers yet so it'll be fun to learn some things along the way. I'll definitely keep you in mind if I have some tech questions. Thanks again Devin!!
@@GarageBuiltHondas Not a problem! It's more of a hobby of mine haha. Can't wait to see how it goes for you guys! The p28 seems like a better option to start with since it is a vtec ecu as well. I don't have much experience with superchargers but I am excited to see your results!
I ran into a guy a long time ago that had an EJ1 with a Z1 in it. It was turbo and averaged 70 MPG. Absolutely crazy for that time
Saving one Honda at a time loving the content as always
We're trying our best!
This is awesome! I would give anything to have some help on my cars lol.
It's fun man, you'll learn a ton too!!
Nice work guys! This is so fun to watch reviving an old vehicle. Goes to show with a bit of cash and knowledge you can score huge. Good luck making it to race season ✌️
Thanks Kevin, covid-19 canceled our first two events. We should easily make it in june.
Refreshing the car ground up with the new wheel bearings :) Nice wheels too!
We're trying our best!
Canada here... I'm with ya on this one...you can probably see his mind expanding by the minute...nod to the young fella for gettin in there lol... your usual get it running first is key, then due to body...open slate...factory or all the way to Grand Tourismo lol...keep turning that wrench... one love...p.s. As the times show...damn it's good to have projects! Peace n love Northern Style!
I love these types of videos.
Can't wait for the next one.
Kevin Johnson me toooo it truly is my favorite channel and the next is Youngstatic!
Thank you so much!
Yo! I'm on Montana and 375! Pretty cool to see someone from El Paso making these videos
Awesome man!! 👍
Only the best maxpeeding ;) if you know ya know
I really wish I had space like that to work on my cars 😭😭
I'm very lucky and grateful. 👍
Great work! Looking forward to seeing the car in person
Definitely man!
Hey ive always wondered if i could find a junkyard supercharger that could be adapted to a b series intake manifold
Itd take some serious fab skills but might be possible.
My favorites 92-00 civic coupes..
Coupes for man's and his dog.
Hatch for kids.
Sedan for family guy's
Lol
@@GarageBuiltHondas 😂
I ride around with my dog in eg hatch honestly it's better
@@michaeldavidmontalvo2402 coupes have more style...
@@michaeldavidmontalvo2402 hatches for kids with their dog.. 😎
Thank you bro for this video. It reminds me of my old ej1 I used to have. It puts at ease on these times that we all are going through. Thanks again. 🙏 amen to you brother.
You got it, stay safe, and thanks for watching!
I'm glad I bought a coupe now.
👍
I’ve had that exact same thing happen to me. Where I lost all clutch pressure and thought my slave cylinder went out. Turns out the pivot ball busted through the clutch fork.
Seems common as they've gotten older.
I restored this car with f20b im happy with it along with couple of other modes ( short ratio gear and ecu chipping )
Nice
That’s a nice $500 dollar pick up on the coupe. And I love that tire and wheel set up. And where did you find that supercharger at?
Facebook marketplace!
Garage Built Hondas oh ok I see! I would love to put one on my del sol that’s why.
It should be fun!!
Garage Built Hondas yeah I can’t wait to see the video when it’s getting installed and the test drive after.
Nice! Love my 93 civic ej1 coupe, and miss my eg hatchback... these cars are great
Agree. Fun, cheap reliable beaters!
Love the video Jon. Please keep safe out there with this COVID-19 crisis.
Thanks, likewise.
@@GarageBuiltHondas cheers.
Hell yeah bros! Get her back on the road! DEFINITELY need a new black hood...
At least paint it to match it all up!
Great video. EX coupes are my favorite
My favorite eg body style too!
Looks alright, would prefer Turbo set up myself.. Have a question for you can you give little information on how to build that home made wheels bearing installer???
Of course, watch this video here! czcams.com/video/_V8sBGy0BAU/video.html
Nice job keeping these Hondas on the road. Keep fixing them. Easy to work on. Be sure to tell people to check there oil level in hondas. Nice pad too. Where state?
Thanks! In Texas. 👍
New project can’t wait to see more 💪🏾
🙏😀
I have 93 civic dx that I'm fixing and it my first time doing it haves a D15b7
Some wheels and touch ups on the front end and this car will look brand new good steal fellas
Right, did you check out the 2nd part? The car is looking sharp!
I love this channel. Cant wait to see what you do with this one 🤩
We could use you here in H-Town? I have a daily driver, well it used to be my daily driver. It's a 2004 Accord V6 with 231K miles on it. Loved my car! No major problems until now - transmission issues. This generation of Hondas has had loads of transmission issues. I got more miles out of my Accord than most have. Suddenly one day it's driving fine then without warning all hell breaks loose. Well, I can't honestly say it was without warning because I had noticed a definite jerk, usually after turning a corner. I had a friend that had changed a bad motor mount for me so I attributed it to a bolt that may have come loose. It was my only mode of transportation and I had no other option to get to a new job so I put it off. On my way home from work one day after leaving the parking garage and half way home, it suddenly wouldn't pick up speed after taking off from a red light. It wouldn't go beyond 20 mph any attempt to increase the speed was pointless the engine would only rev up. Then all of a sudden it changes gears and it was fine. I haven't had it diagnosed as being the transmission, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist. I'm guessing that installing or rebuilding a transmission may cost more than what the car is worth. It's taking a much needed rest. What would you do Honda lovers? I'm open to suggestions!
Sometimes you just gotta let her go boss 😥
@@leoochoa1894 yes I figured as much 😥!
You could probably find a used transmission at a junkyard for $100 tops. Check local shops about rebuilding a transmission and go from there. Make a decision then.
That’s a 1000 dollar car where I’m from😂😂
thats 150 dollar car here
im finally garaging my 2010 civic sedan si. i wanna build it street/track use nothing major maybe head work and thats it. my question is is there a book on 8th gen hondas telling me name of components so i know what to delete from engine bay that i will have no use for like a/c .. i live in Chicago so need for a/c if i cruise the highways .
There isn't. Do a lot of reading and watching videos, you'll see plenty of info.
Can we get some info on your wheel bearing replacement technique? That looked pretty slick.
Yeah man for sure, take a look at this video here. I explain in depth exactly how I do it. czcams.com/video/_V8sBGy0BAU/video.html
Question: what are the essentials to start a project from scratch to trackcar?
Tires, brakes, suspension, then power. Always in that order.
This was for the Q&A By the way
Cristian its in de exact order of what i am doing but i looking for something that i am maybe missing...
Lol
@@fspecperformance what's your budget?
I want to do the same on my car, excited for next episode on this build
👍
Almost 50k subs brother! Congrats
Thanks man, love the support and subscribers I have!
Poor little Civic, glad you boys are cleaning her up 👍👍
Btw love those ED hatch's
Thanks, and thanks! 😀
Nice, love low budget rebuilds.
Would like to see a video done in real time
Lol, that'd take forever!
Keep up the good work!
We learn a lot with all ur vids ignore the comment saying u needa slow down ☝️
Lol, I'm sure you have noticed I pretty much do my own thing all the time anyway
Salute to the best!!! We gotta throw my ef in that yard bro....
Bring it over!
it needs mad scientist work hahaha but still daily, if you drive it you won’t believe it’s still street safe, shame on me...
Lol
I miss my Ej2... And now with the cuarentena I miss my doghter 🐶.
I hear that.
Where did he get the 5zigen wheels from? Looks much better with the new wheels.
Someone local had them for sale, great price of $325 no tires.
I was thinking the D15z1 was non Vtec when I saw the HP numbers online. Wonder why the HP is so much lower than a Z6. 90 vs 126hp.
Can't wait to see what else you guys do on this car!
It's a VX engine. But he's working with what he has. It's temporary as he works the bugs out and eventually will go to a larger engine.
My civic is having the same issues
Hello from florida, I hope you've been staying as safe as possible. Just wondering what your views are in regards to Osaka, Japan's racing scene. Or Kanjozoku, Ground Zero as they call it, in some cases.
Is this the 50k question, or you want me to answer it here?
@@GarageBuiltHondas yes this should have been part of the questions in the original comment you posted. Please if you can answer this question in your upcoming 50k video, I would love to hear what you think in detail from there so I can really see your emotions. I see you've so many EF's which most KANJO drivers heavily use :) Stay safe brotha
I just bought a 97 civic for 550 it's body is nice but it's engine has been thru alot I'm hoping I can learn enough on CZcams to make this into a really cool cruise car
There's plenty of info and you have a perfect platform, just keep working on something and you'll make it happen!
@@GarageBuiltHondas I don't know anything about cars so I'm learning from CZcams I guess, radiator reservoir blew up sent steam everywhere today I'm hoping it's just thermostat cause I'm gonna change tomorrow morning
The best learning is experience. If you're willing to learn, you will. You may have a bad head gasket if the coolant reservoir is filling up and bubbling.
@@GarageBuiltHondas changed thermostat and it's still spraying steam from the reservoir hose coming from radiator. Guess it is a damaged head smh.
Not necessarily a bad head,but the head gasket may need replacing. The coolant is mixing with the oil and the heat is causing the coolant to bubble over and push out through the coolant reservoir.
Love the low $ builds, my specialty! 👍
Thanks! 👍
👍👍👍 AMAZING
Thanks!!
Can’t wait to see the finished product
Us too, still working on it!
Another good video widmer. Some solid work
Thanks homie
Man!!!! I'm jealous of the garage. Great video!!!!
That white hatch looks good!
Thanks! You can see more of it here. czcams.com/video/P_TcIsEsP0k/video.html
Getting oil on my 20 year old driveway makes me cry 😢
Getting oil on my fresh concrete makes me happy. 😀
Just a suggestion less music and maybe a more asmr style where we just hear you working instead of the music. Sometimes I find it hard to focus. It might just be me. For example taylor ray on youtube does this and I like it. For my question
Where did you start researching and learning information about these cars to become so knowledgeable?
And maybe a wind blocking cover for the mic lol
@@ManMrKrazy definitely!
I like that too, but sometimes kind of boring for others maybe also. I'm trying to keep viewers watching. Hope I can compromise for everyone. 👍
Wait a second... How did this coupe come with d15z1 ? Those only came on vx hatches
It was swapped in at some point in time.
Just bought a Running GSR integra for 500 the other day, needs a rebuild tho 295k on the odometer!!
I would've bought it too!
sweet ride!
😃👍
nice little build
👍
The goat🙌🏽
👍😀
Subscribed. Definitely wanna see more of this Honda.
Awesome!
Fast and the furious tribute? Ayyyy
I thought that would be so sick!!
So am thinking about doing a brake booster delete on my 98 civic. Wanted to know the pros and cons and if you can give any advice
Google this "civic brake booster delete pros and cons" and then read and make a decision. I can't give you my opinion because I've never driven a car without a booster.
@@GarageBuiltHondas ok thank you
This video is awesome!

how does the sealed floor hold up to jackstands? does it crack it or damage it easily?
No. It holds up well. It might scratch it if you drag it across the floor though. It can also be chipped if dropped from.a high height.

Nice...have 2 93 coupes which one is a bare shell I just got and need to slap a swap in it.
They have such sleek lines. I really like the EG coupe.
My first love was a 91 integra but also have a weak spot for egs
Yup, DA's get me everytime!
Was just watching this and saw the 915 tag in the corner! Ive always wondered if there was any car youtubers in EP
