Man just wanted to let you know. 1 month ago i went from knowing nothing to rebuilding my gsr. i cant get enough of it. because of you, i am now full blown into b series engine building. already have another gsr im going to build. you the man
just did a water pump, timing belt/tensioner and new camshaft seals.. now my belt is walking towards the block.. what could be the issue? the cams are lined up, all the gears and water pump seem to be in line
Quite a few actually, and I use a combination of gasket remover and plastic razor blades or a carbide scraper depending on the surface. If you don't want to hand scrape a brittle disc on an air grinder is less abrasive than a wire wheel and won't dig into aluminum.
Hey buddie just a little tip for installing keepers I just use some dielectric grease and either a magnetic pocket screw driver or small set of needle nose pliers and you’ll be able to just set the keepers in place and they won’t move on ya and don’t worry the grease will get squeezed out when you release on your compressor and the retainer rises back up just a trick I learned having to rebuild 2 engines a day for a couple years
Hey I'm wondering if you could share some knowledge in your build. I have a 00 Acura Integra gsr. I rebuilt my b18c1 and it's still burning oil, could be rings, could be valve seals. The rebuilt is less than 50k km. However I've decided to rebuild the whole block again. This time I was wondering what are some parts prone to wear quicker than the rest so I can reinforce it and prevent breakdowns like I'm having right now ? I want a reliable build. Should I look for a type r head ?
Hey man on the last video you said those light weight crank pulleys have caused you to spin bearings or something? Any idea why? I was thinking about getting one.
Big Phizzle they mainly cause the oil pumps to fail. Which will make the motor lose oil pressure. They don’t “dampen” vibration like a true factory harmonic balancer or “crank pulley” if your going to get an aftermarket unit go with an ATI. There’s a reason the lightweight ones are $20 lol
Another cool vid, i bought one of those "push type" valve retainer remover tools and god damn that thing worked great. replaced valve stem seals with head still on, in the car. Got the tip from this vid.. th-cam.com/video/zFmC66YU6zI/w-d-xo.html
Still watching these videos bro, great content as usual 👏🏼
Good job brother
I love you for the tip of putting the keepers in the retainers before dropping them in. SO MUCH EASIER.

I always put a little assembly grease on the keepers to make them kind stick in place when installing them. Just my two cents
You got my subscription you go into detail on this
Hey hunter
I got the nicest valve spring tool on prime for $40.. It bolts to the head and its super nice!!!
I would buy all your how to build honda DVDs thanks man. I'm liking and sharing
vilase johnson thank you so much!
HunterTuned U sell How to DvDs? Where

Your missing the washers or one of the washers on the crank pulley. There is a washer for each side of the belt on the crank pulley
Steel wire brush on an aluminum head... Excellent idea. lol
Works great. How many of these have you built? I’d love to see your technique on cleaning them up if you want to post a video.

I agree. I guess I’ve never had issues doing this way so haven’t changed anything. Thanks for the advice!
This will change your life.

Love the detail you put into these builds. Makes all the difference.
Great content, I’ll be watching it again when I’m ready to build my GSR.

nice excited to see how this keeps going
Awesome vid very helpufull
Thank you Hunter!
I feel like i can time any motor now 💪
Great video !!!! I’m almost ready to do my gsr build. Almost have all the parts to do it thanks for this video👍🏻👍🏻
I’m starting to think. I just watch for your sound effects LOL
mtpocketz4 haha!!!!!
Looks good.
Should save those dual valve springs for the Crx
No Budget Racing you already know lol
HunterTuned haha my man!
Looks like Supertech Steel Retainer
Supertech steel retainer. same design as my titanium except for the super shiny look.
Found it
Hey I'm wondering if you could share some knowledge in your build.
I have a 00 Acura Integra gsr.
I rebuilt my b18c1 and it's still burning oil, could be rings, could be valve seals. The rebuilt is less than 50k km.
However I've decided to rebuild the whole block again.

I want a reliable build. Should I look for a type r head ?
How much pressure are you using to pry up on the tensioner? There are conflicted opinions on relying on the spring tension.
James Vang I’m not sure how to explain how much pressure I’m using. Just pry up till the belt is tight and tighten the bolt
Theres just controversy surrounding between whether or not the tensioner should need a little prying up or relying solely on the spring for tension.
I was curious, when you gap your spark plugs how does .20 help or is this for just turbo?
Neon cam gear for sohc or dohc
Still have the gsr oil cooler and fitting? If so hook me up with it?
If so just shoot me a text 9284889680
Where you get your valves spring compressor from?
truelegendracer a friend
HunterTuned why not get the lisle one where all you do it tap it with a hammer and it removes and installs the keeper

HunterTuned Oh okay. Makes sense. Thanks for the reply. Just found the channel but I dig the content. You got a new sub bro.
Buy an air c clamp with the right tip. Seriously will take you 5 min tops
Why you scratching the nice head on the shitty concrete??
The next episode cant some soon enough! ;)
20:15 had me lmao
