For the most part the trim is going back to black for now might go gray like in the gt4 later on
An im puttin the red tenzo seats in after i have her running right an itll end up wil a racing streering wheel at some point too

I know ill beat alot of stuff at the local drag strip with the exception of my buddy/next door neaghbor.
Hes finishing the rebuild on his 96 civic hatch. It ran 14.3 before an said his rebuild will drop atleast a second off his time plus hes going turbo after he gets around 3000 miles on it
Hes a good friend but every time i get an inch closer to catching him he gets a mile farther away lol
Stupid hondas an being so cheap to build

Could find a TRD supercharger and the components for it. "Toyota Racing Development offered a bolt-on TRD supercharger kit for the 1997–2000 Camry, 1998–2000 Sienna and 1999–2000 Solara. Power output was bumped to 242 hp and 242 lb·ft of torque." The Hondas are ugly anyway, unless it's a Prelude or NSX. Celica=much sexier. Don't know why you'd build a Civic anyway. rolleyes.gif Cheap power, just find a Vega shell and throw a 350 in it. thumbsup.gif

Good luck to you on your quest.

I'd check out Smaay's tear down thread for pics of the vac lines. Saves a trip to the junk yard smile.gif

And thanks for the tip on the nail polish remover! We've tried everything we could think of.

My plan for the 1mz is to try an stay all motor an hit close to those numbers
I might try to useca custom supervcharger setup but thats a ways off


I cant say anything bad about my buddys civic hatch. His isnt like every other riced out honda its done up more like how we do celicas lol an hes,probably got more money under the hood of his than i got in both my celicas
I mean honda or not 280hp fron a n/a 1.6l is bad ass lol

Ive looked at smaays an 95celicagts mr2 both are alittle different from mine or atleast they look it in the pics

An your welcome. The wife was using goof off an relized it smelled just like her remover just not as strong. It seems to work great. Might dry out the leather alittle but thats easy to fix too

Well im off to the scrap yard

If there is any issues like that you guys ever need help with ask me and i can probably help find a cheap way to take care of it. Growing up poor and a lot of kids to your family you learn a lot of stuff like that...lol just like if you ever get gum stuck in fabric Polish remover works on it too

Well, that's a Civic we can live with I guess. Seems most of them think they're in the "Fast and the Furious". No, you drive an econobox. rolleyes.gif

Any who, glad you found what you needed and good luck on the vacuum lines. The only thing worse than trying to figure out electrical is vacuum lines.

I wouldn't put the money into S/C'ing the 1MZ. If F/I is something you would want to do down the road I would get a 2GR and start putting money aside for a Harrop HTV1320.

Yea my buddys hatch other than a type r lip kit is a sleeper lol

But back on topic i got the vaclines reran an i was only off on 2 maybe 3 an thats mainly because of missing parts but thats all fixed for now
I will have to figure out better placement for parts later on though
the charcoal can from the Lexus makes the celicas look like a baby lol
Picked up 2 sensors i had missing an the vacuum tank i didnt know i needed
She does seem to run alot smoother an it feels alittle better under a load too
But im hoping after the exhaust an o2 sensor is put in she feels right. Cuz ive only had her to 2500rpm an it feels like no almost no power but im figuring thats due to having just upen exhaust manifolds lol
Going tomorrow to see if the exhaust shop can finish her for 140 since thats all i gots left to spend for the next 2 weeks. But ive done just about all i can for now
Going to try an get my hands on a code reader an see what codes are showing since im getting nothing from pinning the obd1 port.

95celicast- if i do deside to s/c the 1mz its going to be low boost an just mainly to say i did it.
If i want boost ill end up getting a 3vz an do a full rebuild an the run about 12-16 psi
An drop this motor in the coupe
Not that ive been thinking about it any
Of on alil side note the junk yard will sell me the whole front clip from a 92-93 camry for 850-900
Not that i can afford it right now lol

Ill probably have her make me a new one in yellow

Did you make that boot or did you buy it from Vincent-doggy?

Also have matching floor mats, ebrake boot, and arm rest cover in the same stitch.

I have yet to use the floor mats as my car has been parked since I bought them, so they're still brand new going in this summer... sweet. thumbsup.gif

Wish I was able to make stuff like that. Hopefully can get her done at the exhaust shop for cheap. My local shop is reasonable, hopefully so is yours.

Let us know how it turns out, hopefully they can work something out for you. My boot is still good, I'm just jealous of the ability to make things. I've never been good with making things, except problems. mad.gif Currently in the process of fixing what is now the passenger seat. Had swapped the passenger seat cushions and covers to the driver side since was in better shape. And frankly I care more about me than the occasional passenger. tongue.gif

Ok i got the charcoal can mount today
Im not as happy with it mounted behind the tire as i thought
I think im goin to start looking for a small overflow tank to put on the drivers side by the strut tower so i can move the charcoal can to where the overflow is now.
The main reason for this is because i only have about 1/2 inch of clearance between the tire an the can when the tire is at full lock.
An i only have that because i cut off part of the plastic inner fenderwell

But ayleast its all in an hooked up for now

Ok time for pics an small write up on how its hooked up
So lets start with where its mounted

I have it as far up an over away from the tire as i can.

This pic you can see the big hose that runs to the vsv on the top of yhe motor

Heres where that hose connects.

Here is the hose that connect to the old evap hard line on the celica

Here is the hard line it connects to

Heres the sensor that was on the can
Its now mounted to the strut tower.

An heres the sensor thats connets to the sendor that was on the charcoal can


The only thing left to do is tap the last open line on the charcoal can into the intake tube
Ill do that that by putting a t in the valve cover vent tube.
