Sorry if you misunderstood my small kicker in the beginning of my last post. No knock on maintenance, personally when I see someone's car thread has a new post by the OP I'm hoping to see a type r wing install, koni/gc install, or something along those lines. That's why I made that small joke. Excited nonetheless about all the new parts I'll be ordering soon; I love getting packages in the mail. It goes :shocked2: to :banana:

The first wave of parts came in the mail today

OEM water pump


OEM timing belt


Golden Eagle cam plug


Trying to convince my dad to help me out with the timing belt/water pump/cam seal replacements. He's like trying to move a boulder, you just gotta chip away at him til his defense shatters lol

I suggest getting the crank tool makes everything so much easier.

My Razo ra89 came in the mail today! For some reason I imagined it'd be a litttle heavier and expensive feeling, but looks great nonetheless. I bought mine off of a team-integra member. Great communication and fast shipping. Now for some pics.

The rest of the parts that will be installed when I get the timing belt/water pump installed

S2K OEM Honda Oil Filters


Valve cover gasket


Sparkplug Seals


Cam Seals


Timing Belt Tensioner Spring


Power Steering Belt


A/C Belt


Alternator Belt


Honda Bond


Wrinkle Black


And that's pretty much it til I check the voltage output on my o2 sensors to see if they're causing my P0420 and P0430 codes. If they're alright it's gonna be the cat or combination of both.

Update* Bought Walker direct fit cat and both Denso o2 sensors-codes fixed

Laid down primer on the 96' se/gsr starfish wheels. I think I'm just gonna keep it classy and paint them original silver unless I think of a nice color combo.

why switch to that filter?

My understanding of the s2000 filters was they filter a little more but drop oil pressure. I noticed a slight drop in oil pressure when i used one. Went back to a regular sized filter.

I've read that they're better for filtering on a thread. Someone had cut open a few different filters (forget which ones) and explained that you could clearly see the difference in quality. Wish I had the link but this was a while ago and didn't bookmark it. I figured it was worth the investment. I've read nothing but good things from people running them on their tegs. Superior quality.

One a side note:
I finally got my P0420&P0430 codes fixed by replacing the cat&o2 sensors. I noticed a difference in performance, with a little more pickup in the lower rpms than previously. Not sure if this makes sense but it's definitely there.

I'll have to wait till next fill up to see if it's been affecting my mpgs much but I'm hoping it'll increase it as my last tank I got 269 miles out of 12.53 gallons which calculated to just over 21 mpg.
