      Hi there loving your videos,I was wondering if you could advise me on what driveshafts I would need for my 1990 ef hatchback, I am have fitted a b16a2 vtec engine but am experiencing a lot of vibration with the ek4 shaft I have fitted, any help would be appreciated.
      Many thanks Neil.

    • @GarageBuiltHondas
      @GarageBuiltHondas  Рік тому

      Depends on your intermediate shaft. Either DA or DC Integra usually. Unless yours is using the original part then I'm unsure which axles to use with those for the driver side.

    • @GarageBuiltHondas
      @GarageBuiltHondas  2 роки тому +2

      You'll still have AC. It just won't supply the far side over there. The center and right vents will get all of the airflow and shouldn't be any issue for an AC equipped ac.

    @elliswilliams1050 2 роки тому +1

    Yes you did it! I've been running my hydro converted pedal assembly for almost a year now and my D series hydro trans shifts a lot easier since going full hydro. But I've found that the EF clutch pedal just doesn't have the right throw, so the leverage is never quite right. My plan is to fabricate the firewall of my EF to fit an EG clutch pedal assembly. Seems easy enough to do, but I'll have to delete the brake booster, luckily they sell brake booster plate for $50 on ebay! Hoping I get it done soon!

    • @GarageBuiltHondas
      @GarageBuiltHondas  2 роки тому +1

      Mine seems great, the CMC piston is pushed in all the way and I had great feel even with a little heavier 1.5 Competition Clutch.

    Makes me wonder how LHT did his?
    Oh. On another note. If you haven't yet. Since it's a track car. And if you haven't done it yet. You should try to delete your steering column lock. For safety purposes.

    • @GarageBuiltHondas
      @GarageBuiltHondas  2 роки тому +1

      Me too. Maybe use a Hush kit of something similar?
      That's a good idea. I wanted the JDI push start anyway and it does that so that'd be cool.

    • @hmmhuh12
      @hmmhuh12 2 роки тому +1

      @@GarageBuiltHondas not exactly sure how LHT did it. In his recent series, the crx he was working on, he put a hydraulic clutch in it. But he never did say what he used for the pedal assembly. But he probably has a write up somewhere.
      And the jdi setup sounds nice. But I've heard mixed reviews. Something with the boards shorting out and stuff. But their main relay replacement, now that's something worth buying

    • @GarageBuiltHondas
      @GarageBuiltHondas  2 роки тому +2

      I had the JDI in my EK and didn't have an issue with it. I'd still give them a shot. I do want that relay setup though.

      Not at all. I have a heavier 1.5 Competitive Clutch. I think it kept stretching the cable and wouldn't allow the car to go into gear smoothly and I hated grinding this S80 R trans.

      I haven't read these "comments" you're talking about. As long as a hydro setup is braced properly there shouldn't be any issue with heavier clutches as the CMC is still able to push the fluid with no movement in the CMC.

    how is the pedal feel? I have the original hush kit that mounts to the U part of the clutch pedal and it has some slop and is super stiff with a stage 3 action clutch. the new one im making is super similar to that bracket.
