    Something to note about this video: We no longer endorse Jspec as a source for buying JDM parts. Jspec was supposed to be a reputable source to buy parts from instead of buying from the classifieds. It's sad to hear there are allegations against them for selling stolen parts from Japan. Because of this, we can no longer endorse them as a source for buying JDM parts.

    That is a really good rattle can engine bay job; so good in fact I'd believe it was done with a spray gun; kudos for going to these lengths; the new hardware, hood latch etc. is just the icing on the cake, and what separates a great swap from a good swap.

    Under hood looks ok cleared but doesn’t look “just like oem” as you said. You could have simply cleaned and cleared it if all you wanted was the glossy look.

      As long as you don't crack open the hydraulic lines on the master cylinder, you can remove the booster. It has it's own set of seals, and does not make contact with hydraulic fluid (unless the master cylinder is heavily worn, and it would require replacement at that point anyways)

      It doesnt. But, I know Ben will also be doing other upgrades in the powertrain, such as a ceramic clutch, lightweight flywheel, limited slip differential, Urethane or Delrin mounts, etc... All of these will increase NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) and will take away from it's smooth driving characteristics as it had. I have actually driven this Civic, and it changed my opinion of Hondas of that era. Can't wait to meet up with Ben sometime this year and get an opportunity to drive it afterwards.

    • @Bytrl

      If he runs hard mounts, doesnt keep ac, runs a twin disk, doesnt have decent coilovers, or runs a 3" exhaust, uses race harnesses only, deletes the heater core, or runs a top mount shifter, it's not that it's not streetable, it's that you wouldnt want to use it to pick up paper towels at cvs or hit a drive through late at night. It just becomes an annoyance for normal life stuff.

    Recommend Evapo-Rust to remove rust from any rusty parts before painting. Drop it into a jar or bucket of the stuff, and rust will be gone in a few hours. Sand or use steel wool to knock off any remaining buildup.

    I wasn't going to type the tip but...Probably the easiest way to clean the bay is to section at a time, spray degreaser on it, scrub with a wet wheel brush, rinse the brush when it's too dirty, then rinse the section, repeat until clean.
