Time for a Honda B-series (B18C) engine swap update and some pulls with the new engine and Yonaka exhaust civic hatchback. In this video I also discuss how I had to replace the thermostat due to not being able to make block temperature at all which essentially didn't allow me to hit VTEC at all! You'll see in the footage how bad the seal was on the old one. Enjoy the 1-3 gear pulls from the outside and if you have any ideas of where the rattle from the exhaust might be coming from, please let me know.

The 96 Acura Integra GSR organ donor car that will be stripped for parts to pay for the project along with having the heart and suspension transplanted onto the civic.

Welcome to Stauffer Garage! I am beginning an EK civic project car build and will be documenting the entire process vlog style along with tutorials and updates. I have picked up an Integra GSR for cheap and will be pulling the B18C and all other components that will fit and putting them onto my Civic. Goals for this car are to make it daily but it will be primarily a track day weapon! Boost might come into play along with other mayhem! Not a drift car build, but this will certainly be closer to a race car build when all is said and done for this little hatchback

Be sure to subscribe to follow along with this build and the other projects that come along!
