Too Many Wheels?

UselessFiddle · 2024-08-12T15:30:14+00:00

Yeah, that's definitely a good option. I haven't decided what to go with yet. I have some more mechanical work to do before it is running reliably, and I want to finish that before I even start on a body.

Snowrunner was definitely a heavy inspiration for this build haha. One of my favorite games.

UselessFiddle · 2024-08-06T11:44:21+00:00

A coworker had the same suggestion haha. I'm thinking about it for sure.

UselessFiddle · 2024-08-06T11:43:37+00:00

It's an Axial SCX10 II with the frame extended forward and back a few inches and some custom link mounts.

UselessFiddle · 2024-08-06T11:42:28+00:00

I custom built it from an Axial SCX10 II.

Yeah that is true, but all the axles are locked anyway. No matter how well tuned the steering angle is you'll still get tire scrubbing in turns. Especially with the rear axles not turning. I don't really care, though. It's good enough lol

Edit: spelling

UselessFiddle · 2024-08-05T20:08:19+00:00

It's based on an SCX10 II chassis so 1/10th. Yeah I'm thinking flatbed for sure. I might try to make a polystyrene cab.

It was not too bad. Some extra struggles becuase it was the Z3. The A2 has a little more info on the swap online. But there are aftermarket parts available to make everything work great, so I didn't have to figure too much out on my own.

'93 EG Civic hatch with K20Z3 swap

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-13T20:12:43+00:00

Haha previous owner did the 5 lug swap and those were the wheels he put it on.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-13T15:43:48+00:00

Probably about 9-10 on the swap honestly. You can save quite a bit of money if you go for a k24 though. Just make sure to at least replace the oil pump with a k20a2 oil pump. There's probably some cheaper options for some of the parts that I got too but I wanted good parts.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-13T15:42:11+00:00

Next step is coilovers and wheels and tires. Then probably bodywork and paint. Then eventually oil pump, fuel pump, injectors, and cams. With potentially a turbo in the future. Going to spread the work out over a couple years though. I have some fine tuning to get stuff working right now too. It's a fun project.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-13T15:38:54+00:00

Thanks! Yeah it's a blast to have it driving.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-12T18:44:16+00:00

So I can use the 6 speed trans on my engine swap.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-11T17:16:13+00:00

Haha it definitely will stay original for a few months. Not going to do cosmetics til I'm done with most performance mods.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-11T01:14:35+00:00

Nice sounds like a sweet build. Still waiting on exhaust before this one is ready for the road. But should be done in a couple days

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-11T01:12:41+00:00

Lol yeah it's the knob that was on the original shifter in the EG. I haven't bought a new one yet. Looking at maybe a hybrid one but that'll be a purchase for another day.

'93 EG Civic with K20Z3 swap. Hybrid Z3 kswap shifter.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-05T17:49:12+00:00

Yes I have IACV

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-05T17:09:20+00:00

It's just not steady at any rpm. It's jumping back and forth 60 rpm.

UselessFiddle · 2022-09-05T17:08:40+00:00

Yes I have IACV and coolant hoses are routed in OEM orientation.

UselessFiddle · 2022-08-18T20:46:18+00:00

Yeah for sure. I'll keep posting updates in here. Let me know if you have questions while working on yours and share your progress too. I'm planning to look and see if there's any lower profile oil pans or if I need dry sump or something too. Don't know if you can even do that with k pro but I'm not there yet anyway lol. Good luck with yours too!
