R13's 97 Gs-r Build thread

[Aussie]

That's def why it's not running right. No O2 means no info to adjust fuel trims, pretty sure it will just run at 100% all the time.

I was thinking the same thing.

Kurt, Im sure if you installed an O2 you should be good. Now if you want your motor to perform at its peak I would have it tuned like Nick suggested. But of course you already know this

 

[R13]

Yep yep, I got a clip of it running, I think the timing is off a bit as well but it's still crazy rich.

Here's a quick snap of the bay, As for the vc I don't know what happened there, I started stripping paint off it and just stopped because I liked it, I call it "Relic" :lol:

Tow it to get it tuned properly. That is my recommendation, especially if you have no primary o2. Also, what do you have her timed at and how did you set your timing?

Dlo, you should make a vtec solenoid cover as well. That way your artwork wouldn't get covered up.

Yeah, I think an o2 sensor is a good place to start and should make a difference. .

Yeah after seeing that awesome seal get covered up I need to start making some solenoid covers. I do have my b17 head to model off of. Dont have a smaller solenoid to measure, but got the 92-01 covered at least.

 

[R13]

I know, I feel bad for covering up such a work of art

 

[dlo253]

Its blasphemy!! Just need the same thing on top of the vtec solenoid.
What would be desired? Just blank machined with optional engraving on top, or?
I think I have an idea but customer input is always appreciated.

 

[R13]

I'll gladly be your first customer if you make one that fits my car, Yes the R13 logo would be desired

 

[dlo253]

Cool cool. Well I will model it off mine and have you dbl check dimensions on yours. Pretty sure 92+ are all the same and the early b16 are bigger. Wont be able to start on it at least until my car is back on the road and I have enough bench space to unwrap the b17 head lol.

The smallest wrench vs the largest wrench I own :lol:

the other two are for scale, A 12mm line wrench & a 1/2" torque wrench.

Just wanted to get my f&f quote in for the day :mrgreen:

I've snapped two cam cap bolts on my b1 with a 1/2 inch torque wrench. Had to use a 1/4 inch and I stopped snapping shit lol.

Lol, I snapped one a few days ago with a standard 1/4" ratchet, Got the replacement coming in Monday along with the new o2 sensor.

 

[LoweredDC4]

Nice. I've found out that left handed drill bits are very helpful getting snapped bolts out.

I'm always lucky enough for it to leave about 1/4 of an inch so I can twist it out with needle nose pliers.

 

[R13]

Ignore this post I'm just posting these so I can easily remember which wires go where, I got my o2 today instead of Monday.
