a quick update that i should have posted a few weeks ago..
i took the engine to the honda specialist in adelaide Street Level Tuning, he is a top guy and did an amazing job, Engine got the new seals installed, the clutch,turned out to be in need of replacement so got that done while i was there including regrinding the flywheel, the sump that had been leaking since i bought it turned out to be lacking the copper washer, so all the silicone was cleaned off and the sump was given a new coat of paint.
in other news the project is on hold while it is relocated from adelaide to Darwin, as i relocated for work so hopefully ill get a break from work over the months leading into december, and im fortunate to get some good weather so i can really make a dent on this project.
i also had the brakes cleaned, seals changed, and all new pistons installed as well as painted in caliper blue ready to be installed (i did start doing it myself but i was pressed for time and needed to get it done with)
and finally i got the subframe powdercoated in gloss black, to protect it from going rusty, i imagine i may need to get this done again in the future after i bolt or weld on brackets for the radiator, but hopefully i can bolt them and avoid having to do that.
and heres some pics as i know you all like pics
