As the title says my 2nd hatchback has been sold and part of the proceeds will go to my Turbo Build Fund. It was fun owning two hatchbacks at once but currently I don’t need the 2nd one so it was sold and now I can focus on picking up a D16Z6 1.6 VTEC block and start working on it. I estimate this to be a 6-8 month build just in time for next years drag races at mission and should perform quite good with my projected 250 to 300hp.

The bumper and fender swap between the two Civic’s was a success, it was quite easy and only a few tools were needed. I pulled the bumpers and fenders off by myself but got some help from a friend to put them all back on. The reason for this swap was that my bumper and fender in my 93 Civic was all dented from rocks but the 95 Civic had a new painted bumper and a fender with only 1 ding. I will post pictures tomorrow as I didn’t get a chance to pull them off my camera yet. I also replaced the drivers side headlight on the 95 Civic because it had  a hole in it and the inner reflective part was all rusting away. Check back tomorrow for some before and after pictures.

Finding great resources can sometimes be really tricky specially when your looking for something really specific.  I found this 62 page manual on the 1992-1995 Honda Civic transmission and thought I would share it with other EG (92-95) Civic enthusiasts that might need it for reference.

Step 21 - Support the tranny with an extra floor jack and then unbolt it.

Tools Needed: 17mm Deep Socket Wrench, Floor Jack, 2×4 Piece of wood.

Place a 2nd jack with a piece of 2×4 wood under the tranny. Then get your friend to grab a hold of the rope with some gloves. Once the tranny is supported you can start unbolting the lower front transmission mount using a 17mm socket wrench. Then Tell your friend to hold the rope tight and start unbolting the last 3 top engine mount bolts using a 17mm socket wrench.

Step 22 – Grab the tranny and wiggle it left and right to dislodge it of the engine.

Tools Needed: Gloves

Grab the tranny with your hands and start wiggling it left and right to dislodge it off the engine. Careful not to move the engine to much so it does not fall of the jack support. Once you get the tranny loose, hold it while your friend removes the 2nd jack out of the way and you can slowly lower it to the ground.
