SpankedYA!

Alright I got my new motor put in my 96 civic CX hatch. The old Y7 had 170,000 and was still going but I got another Y7 with 50,000 on it so I changed it. I put a Y8 manifold on while it was on the stand. At first it wouldn't start for ---- and then once I got it running it was idling at 2k and dropping up and down like a vaccuum leak. It wasn't a vaccuum leak, it was either the MAP or the TPS. I changed the TB to the original and POW! it runs mint. Only problem is the Prothane Poly mounts are really harsh. Man, you feel every RPM. I may pull them. Still undecided. Now I can get my turbo stuff on a good motor and new clutch.

Turbo items I have so far:
Saab 900 T3 42.48 I believe
Saab SMIC
1G dsm BOV with mount
Custom log manifold made by A buddy and myself.
Phantom A/F gauge
Phantom Boost gauge
DSM 450 injectors

Still need:
P06
Chipping for Uberdata
OBDI to OBDIIa harness
Charge and exhaust piping
WB O2 set up.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I've got them urethane *****, everything in my car rattles, even my freaking shift **** rattles. I'm gonna thake them things out when I do my clutch.

boo hoo.

I didn't think it was a big deal either until I put them in and realized I can feel every vibration of every rpm even with the radio turned all the way up. My change in the change holder rattles at almost every rpm, my radio rattles, the shift **** rattles, somehow my steering wheel rattles, the ash tray rattles, the window roller upper things rattle, and the keys rattle. My headlight rattles, my corner lights rattle, my sunroof rattles. I think that's about it.

Boo hoo my ***.

Well I tell you what. Only put one in and its ok. It rattles a little but not as muck and it is still better performance than the stock motors mounts. OR you could qiut being a ----- and not worry about it.

That rattling means more power at the wheels

I drove about 80 miles last night and it only seems to be a problem at launch or idle. I'm gonna leave mine in. Once I'm rolling or at speed the car straightens out. A little buzzy from the vibes but not unbearable. My wife at first thought the car was fucked up but she said it doesn't bother her anymore.
