The most rusted car (BLOWN MOTOR PICS IN FIRST POST)...
 

*UPDATED*
Instead of creating another thread I'll add onto this one. My isp blew up a fiber box so I was running at 28.8k for the past few days so I couldn't upload pics until today when they fixed it.

Here are some pics of the motor I blew up, more rust in the rear of my car, shots of the cutting and rewelding of my car and a pic of the world's largest rearview mirror...

My next set of pics will be of the motor in the hf, but that'll be in a week or two. I am taking my time with this swap.




Well it was time to retire my 86 crx.
I bought this car about 4 years ago for $100 from my cousin's boyfriend. I had no idea what I was buying. I had two 85 civic dx's but never a crx or something that was fuel injected. I bought the car and drove it home. I drove it for a week or two when a friend told me an 86 teg drivetrain drops right in.

I found an 86 teg for $300 and swapped the drivetrain in my crx. I had no idea what I was doing and it didnt' run right till a few weeks later when I realized i had to do some wiring changes. :-\

I bought another si for $50 and swapped some exterior parts over as you can see in this pic:

The motor developed a slight knock considering it had over 200k miles on it:

The d16a1 developed a slight knock and I wanted a zc so me and a friend hopped in my van on friday after work, headed up to Toronto and picked up a zc. We drove it home and installed in my car and had it running by Sunday night so I could drive it to work on Monday morning.

The zc just couldn't cut it for me so I put together a HMT kit. It lasted for a while when I got a little greedy with the boost at the track and blew some ringland in the zc. Then I decided to purchase a sleeved d16a1 and some rollerwaves and some eagle rods from a memeber on this site (B16destroyer). I had the lower end assembled and i did the rest with the zc head and all the rest. This is the same motor I have today.

Here is the built motor with zc head:

Well as most everyone already knows my car has a 'little' rust problem. :P

A friend of mine was selling an hf already converted to FI and had a d16a1 in it with a bad rod knock. I took care of the rod knock when i drove it to my garage 55 miles ;)

Here is what my 86 si looked like in it's better days:

Well, today I stripped down my 86 si to the bare shell because I am dropping the built d16a1 with zc head in my hf. FYI a crx can fit in dumpster :'( :

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

nice dumpster work, did you pull the wiring for you new shell?

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

Canadian? I'm not canadian
"NYC86ZC" :P
It took me 9 hours to drive from NYC to Toronto each way. That's why I thought it was a good swap weekend.



Highroller54, no i didn't pull the wiring harness for the hf. I acutally worked on this car when my friend had it and i did the wiring changes to it so I am just going to keep his harnesses.

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

I'm right outside the city.

I chill in there all the time cause I have a lot of friends that live in midtown. I used to race in hunts point(bronx) and greenpoint and flatlands(both brooklyn) also on ocassion franny lewis blvd in queens.
Why do you ask?

RX7......those rims?????!?!??!? Me and my boys call them "dominoes", they're nasty. If I had a set I'd give them away for shipping expenses.

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

how many more threads are you going to start about this same project!

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

man those rims are OG, if you find a set send me a pm

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

5.9348928934895892 more threads

That's why on my last thread i asked if people wanted me to post up more pics and stuff and nobody said no. Therefore this thread came about.

I took a ---- load more pics today of the blown engine. It had a hole in the front and rear of the block. The cap separated from the rod and then the crank got stuck on the rod when it hit the cylinder wall. I also have a mess of pics of all the debris inside the engine/oil pan.

Don't worry I won't post anymore then.

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

I want to see more.

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...

And I do too laugh at crx dumpster pic, although I was expecting you to have pics of you chopping the car up and putting the pieces into 27089724678926348972893 trash cans :-\

AND WE NEED MORE PICS!!!

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

Its fine to post pics of your cars and stuff, but stop making new threads about it, keep it all in 1,

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

why whats the point, more threads is good, cause I"ve seen this thread, why would I wana check it again?

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

Slowpoke,

I split them up for the reason Spenser brought up and also becuase it's such a PITA to search for new pics when I update it.

Then the question is, Where do I post the pics? At the end of the thread or the first post? If at then end then more people post below and it makes it annoying to find the pics.

Just my 2 pennies.

I think I'm gonna make a new post about the blown engine shots later on tonight. It's pretty bad.

Re:The most rusted car (BLOWN MOTOR PICS IN FIRST POST)...
 

More pics in first post....
slowpoke, i kept the pics in this post for you :P

Re:The most rusted car (BLOWN MOTOR PICS IN FIRST POST)...
 

haha, nice carnage pics man. How far along is the new engine?

Re:The most rusted car (BLOWN MOTOR PICS IN FIRST POST)...
 

I like the post. Lots of history. haha. I'm kinda disappointed about that block shot though. I was thinking that you could bust a bigger hole than that. :P

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

Last I checked you weren't a mod? :-*

Re:The most rusted car (BLOWN MOTOR PICS IN FIRST POST)...
 

wont the trash man be kinda pised?

Re:The most rusted car on HMT is no more (PICs)...
 

this kind of works both ways, i dont remember every post ive clicked and who started them but i had seen 3 of his threads that i wasnt intrested in, had they all been in one thread i wouldnt of gone back to it any longer because it was something that didnt grab my attention, but since he made 3 diffrent threads and i didnt remember his screenname, i got tricked into looking at more pics of his beater rust car.

if you edit the title with updated and stuff like that, the people that were intrested will come back.

to the mod that said i wasnt a mod, whats your point! im not telling him that he cant do it. I asked him a question, and he awnsered it, thats all, the end!

Re:The most rusted car (BLOWN MOTOR PICS IN FIRST POST)...
 

lol, i wonder what the trash man thought when he dumped a damn car into his trash truck ;D
