That oil gag was the funniest thing I've seen in a while 🤣
Much appreciated! It's nice when the humor bits land! 😆
The oil rebranding just killed me rofl! That plastic "spout" on the power steering fluid container is legit. Great to clear off small niggling items of Shaken.
Thanks! Yeah, the pour spout definitely helps control the mess...I edited out the part though where I overflowed the PS reservoir and still ended up making a mess! 😂 I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!
I remember wanting the Power Folding mirrors so bad back in the day. Awesome feature
Yeah, they really are especially with all the tight parking spots. They get used basically every time you park.
Man I have a soft spot for this car!
Me too! This has been an intense bonding experience! 🤣
wow that before and after was crazy. good work
Thank you!! The engine bay refresh video series shows all the details - lots of time and work but really worth the effort!! Really happy with how this car is coming back to life.
10/10 oil gag.
Glad to see you getting good use out of your Batter Monitor even if it's not for the best reasons! It's one of those products that's nice to have but you hope to not need too often😂
Awesome job on the fault finding and I'm BLOWN away but the change in engine movement? Have you not changed engine mounts or anything? That's crazy to me!
The Battery Monitor has been super handy as you've seen. Such an easy way to check what's going on.
The old mounts were shot so the fresh ITR mounts definitely made a world of difference. I did Nismo mounts on my old S13 and it was the same thing - simple part with dramatic effect. Less engine movement makes the car feel more responsive/faster. Just stay away from poly mounts on street cars unless you like tingly fingers. Haha. Learned that lesson twice. 😅
so exciting! cant wait to see you take it for a spin
Feeling closer than ever now!!
I recently fitted a set of power folding mirrors in my Civic EG. A couple thoughts that may help you as our cars are probably extremely similar.
Firstly, the relay under the dash with the blue connector is only for the folding functionality and has nothing to do with the mirror adjustment. So just because your mirrors adjust, doesn’t mean that relay is working correctly.
That relay has 12v, ground, and a signal wire from the switch. It then has 2 output wires for fold in and fold out. Each of these output wires are split so that each mirror has a fold in signal and a fold out signal. I would firstly check for continuity between the switch and relay, and then check if the switch wire is sending 12v to the relay when pressing the fold button. Then confirm that the relay is getting power and is grounded. You should be able to hear/feel the relay click when the mirrors start folding, and then click again when they stop folding.
Next check for continuity between the relay output wires and the terminals at the mirrors (both the fold in and fold out wires). Then check these same wires at the mirror connectors for 12v when pressing the fold button.
I suspect it’s something with the relay or wiring as it’s unlikely both mirror motors have failed (not impossible though!).
Goodluck!
Excellent write up - thank you for taking the time to break it down! Once I get a multimeter, it will be game on for figuring out what's going on! Great resource here to refer back to - hopefully it helps someone else as well. Also, do your fold switch button stay down when you press it (my van's does) or does it just go down and come right back up? I don't recall how mine was before I pulled it apart and want to make sure I didn't screw mine up! haha, whoops.
@@BRICKHOUSESPL You're welcome! My fold button doesn't stay down, it comes right up again when being pressed.
@@jonkat323 excellent - thank you! That makes me feel better! Haha
I agree with you. If it's came from factory it must work :)
Right! I'd really like to get them working...I mean since I'm in Japan, then I SHOULD have "JDM" power folding mirrors! Hahaha
Lol..ahhh..the oils. Hilarious man. Love the humor😄😄
I really appreciate that! Thank you! It's fun to work it in where I can.
It's literally a dream of mine to do a project car like this. With fuel costs though where I live the feasibility of even an economic car like this is daunting.
I hear you. Filling this with premium is going to hurt but at least it has the 4.4 cruising final gear in the trans versus the Type R 4.7.
@@BRICKHOUSESPL Nice. Would be interesting to see someone electrify one of these cars, eh?
The plug your holding goes to the power door lock control box. It gets screwed down in the big pocket right where the plug was when you started.
Yoooo, that is super helpful - thank you! Is there a reason it would be missing and/or those other wise are cut? Or should I try and find that control box and plug it in? Currently, when I cycle the key in the door lock it won't automatically unlock the passenger side, would this solve that? Appreciate any insight you have. I'm going to have to research it more as well. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
Hey Steve, your RVM motors are most likely seized TFU
You may have a blown fuse, but if you change it and it blows again then you may have a better time just looking for used RVM in order to transplant the motors.
You're almost there for shaken, keep it up
Thanks! It's feeling close! What's a RVM motor? Rear View Mirror? Like the power folding mirrors motors are just seized from sitting so long?
@@BRICKHOUSESPL Looks like it yes, (Rear View Mirror, RVM) . Have you tried folding em by hand? try very gently and see if they move or not, alternatively you could directly power em alternating the polarity in very small bursts and see if there is movement/sound.
I am not sure on these mirrors but you are either looking at a screw type motor (like for many power windows) or geared one, but either way there is polarity to them to reverse the turn direction
@@y.b.- Okay, awesome. I need to get supplies to properly test it - multimeter and wire, etc. Fingers crossed I can get them sorted out. The Honda mechanic made it sound like the motors being bad/seized is possible/probable. I'll get some power to them and see how it goes! Thanks for your help!
Costco oil xD. I cant find the video where you introduced the battery tie down, what is tie down called? i would like to purchase one for my s2000
Haha, I had it on hand plus it's like less than half the price of name brand oil. I'll likely switch to something more suited for track use as the car gets there.
Here's the link for the battery monitor - there's a large and small size depending on your battery size. It's been quite handy so far! www.limitbreakauto.co.uk/product-page/battery-monitor
Hey dude, the Battery Monitor is my product check it out at www.limitbreakauto.co.uk/product-page/battery-monitor-small. It's available in 2 different sizes☺️
Do you remember where you got that battery tie down with the volt meter??? I first saw it a few videos ago and figured I could probably find it online on my own but no luck so far. I really like the look of it plus the functionality.

its in the description of the engine bay refreshment final video, so 3rd video back from the latest my man
@@fredd3.14 Of course I saw it 2 back LMAO. Thanks 4 the enlightenment cuz.
Thanks, Fred! And yeah, here's a link to the large size which might fit USDM batteries. Mine is a small for JDM battery size. It's been quite handy so far as you've seen!

@@BRICKHOUSESPL No doubt. I need urs as I run tiny Odyssey batteries in my 4 vehicles lol.
Omg how do you fin a DC2 oil caps, i try to find him for mine :/
It was a gift from @lowballzach (IG). He always has rare OEM Honda parts for sale so check him out. Good luck with your hunt!
@@BRICKHOUSESPL thank you 🙏🙏
Door lock control module missing and relay that’s why mirrors won’t fold they took your keyless entry off the rhd
Ohhhhh, so I need to track down some missing modules/wiring for the door harness? Are those items you mentioned normally in the driver side door (JDM car so right side door). I'm really not sure what they were trying to do but someone definitely removed some stuff so any tips on what to look for would be a big help. I'd definitely like to get the mirrors working properly. Really appreciate the info!
Hahaha, switched from HKS to Motul real quick! 😁
It's interesting how the coolant is in a bag there in Japan, just like kids' juice packs, only 10 times bigger
Also, how about doing a 199,XXX KM to to 200,000 episode?
Haha, I was wondering who would catch all the brand changes. 😂
They also had some plastic jug style but it was premixed. A lot of times, like laundry detergent, refill packs are sold in plastic bags like that since you likely already have the solid plastic container at home. So that might be more the thought with this stuff.
200,000km might be on its very first test drive! (Assuming the odometer works. 😬)
Real UA-camrs use Valvoline 😆
I look forward to being on that level! Haha. But for real, I think it would be cool to partner with a JDM oil/lube company with an international market/marketing effort.
Stop saying yuck. Perhaps knitting be more yr speed.
Hahaha. Noted. I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for watching!
@@BRICKHOUSESPL welcome to UA-cam, Steve, where people think they have the right to tell you what you can/can't say. This guy needs to get the yuck outta here...
@@speedacademydave haha, yeah. I try to keep the Gary Vee mindset of "thanks for taking the time to watch and engage with the content." Not everyone is going to like me/my style but there's probably a channel out there for them.
