i was actually looking at them(on discount tire) before you made the post, so i immediately noticed them. I want some but haven't the cash flow right now or a wife that thinks they will go with my red yaris.

ilikerice · 01-31-2013, 02:48 PM

I dont think red will look good on red. But they have white. That would look nice.

ilikerice · 02-01-2013, 05:22 PM

Who likes PICTURES?!?!?!

Head and block completely disassembled. Waiting for owner to let me know if he wants to take to machine shop to give it a hot bath, or for me to do a simple wire brush and brake cleaner wash. Got the bearing colors also, gotta wait for those to come in and the rest of the parts.. YAY, fun stuff.

Cylinder walls are still within spec, no scorching or scratches, crankshaft is in top notch. Bearings were just a little discolored, but nothing to be too worried about. New ones while its out, why not? For 310k miles, doesn't look a mile over 50k

Look at those cute little pistons!

junorico24 · 02-06-2013, 06:08 PM

Nice build.

Are you using those original pistons or replacing them with after market? I bought a 1.6 ltr Daihatsu 16 valve motor a few days ago and started pulling it apart. Never done this in my life. But what the heck!! Gonna use the 1.3 ltr piston, distributor and manifold that i have in my 1.3 ltr engine in the car right now.So that the sensors and connectors don't have to change.TAKE out the 1.3 bolt in the 1.6, plug and play!!

1.6 has more torque, if the 1.3 rev happy engine is anything to go by. Damn, this 1.6 HD engine is going to be like a pocket rocket go kart haha.Sorry to high jack your thread.

ilikerice · 02-06-2013, 09:53 PM

HAHA.. yea, I remember going from a 1.5 duel port injection motor CRX DX to a 1.8 integra LS motor. almost a 50hp jump but god you feel every bit of it in a light 1900 lbs. car. gezus. Then I got used to it and wanted more power. Did a B16 (vtec) head swap.. mmm. that was fun, but not enough.. had to go turbo.. 215whp on 10psi.. I miss that car so much.. I hope my yaris can do the same one day..

I don't know much about Daihatsu, but I do remember seeing a thread on a rebuild, I think that might have been you.

To answer your question. yes, I will be using the same pistons. just replacing the rings. Pistons still look good. no scratches and the cylinders are not oblong

ilikerice · 02-06-2013, 10:06 PM

Oh, and quick update. I dropped off the block and head at a machine shop to get a hot bath and pressure washed. Most of the parts just came in yesterday. Just waiting to get a call back from machine shop. I wont be able to do anything til next week anyways, going to Knoxville, TN this weekend to visit friends.

junorico24 · 02-08-2013, 08:31 PM

That block looks in good shape, any chips on the outer cylinder walls? What parts are you replacing?

ilikerice · 02-09-2013, 07:14 PM

nope. block is in amazing shape.

replacing:
all gaskets and "O" rings from a honda OEM Upper and Lower Gasket kit
oil sump
oil pump
water pump
timing tensioner
T-belt and Accessory belts
piston rings
new oil pan (original threads for the plug are cross-threaded)
rod and main bearings
new clutch disc and throwout bearing
new radiator and vacuum hoses

I feel I am forgetting something. but I think that is about it though

ilikerice · 02-12-2013, 05:27 AM

back from the machine shop. pretty

Golddeenoh · 02-12-2013, 02:33 PM

oooo pretty :D

some serious machine shop to deliver at 4am :P

ilikerice · 02-17-2013, 10:23 AM

time for lapping valves.
thought I would do a DIY bit here also

pic1: Tried to clean these exhaust valves but they are done. Can't get all the carbon off them without damaging them. Gonna have to order new ones

pic2: before and after cleaning. cleaned up nice and smooth.

pic3: I use a stainless steel brush to clean the valves and also the pistons

pic4: dirty piston

pic5: clean piston

pic6: now to lapping valves. Here we have cordless impact (or drill, I just love my Makita. my fav tool.), T30 bit, and a vacuum hose

pic7: Valve grinding compound

pic8: first you want to coat the valve with a little bit of compound on the edges where it contacts with the head

pic9: Insert valve, try to start with the #1 cylinder and work your way up. Keeps things in order. When doing this each valve is being fitted specificly to each separate opening.

pic10: on the other side, connect the hose on the T30 and the other side to the end of the valve. When spinning the valve on the head go at a slow/med speed. Let the valve spin on the head for a couple seconds then release. Repeat this a couple times. Then remove the hose from the valve and pull the valve out

pic11: Clean the compound off the valve AND the head. You want to see a solid grey ring around the valve. This will allow the valve to seat fully on the head for a good seal when closed. If you see any pin needle dark spots (pitting), repeat from pic 8. When you finish, take a sharpie and write on the bottom of the valve E1 (exhaust #1) or I1 (Intake #1) depending which valve it is. You want to keep these in order when you get ready to install them.

pic12: Finished the Intake side. gotta wait for the exhaust valves to get here to finish those and then I can finish the head.

ilikerice · 02-17-2013, 10:28 AM

next, honing the pistons

Using a honing tool and cordless drill basically you insert this inside the cylinder and slowly spin it with and up and down motion about 5 times. Just trying to get a crossed etches in the cylinder walls. When finished, grab a paper towel and put some oil on it. any motor oil will be fine. and coat the cylinder walls with oil.

Still waiting for the piston rings now.. so

junorico24 · 02-17-2013, 11:16 PM

WOW

Shroomster · 02-19-2013, 07:39 PM

Really hating the "unsubscribe" option on control panel......

ilikerice · 02-20-2013, 05:43 AM

LOL, *side note*

in pic 1 and 3 you notice my index finger is exposed form the glove. This was not on purpose. When using a Dremmel, should always use caution. While polishing the valves, it got away from me and hit my finger. Snatched part of my glove off. didnt hurt, but scared the crap out of me.

Another thing, where safety glasses or a face shield while using the stainless steel. Those little bristles after a while become weak and turn into hair thin daggers. They don't hurt when they hit the skin, but I can only imagine the pain if one gets in your eye. I had 1 or 2 stuck in my finger.

"no more important rule than to ware these, safety glasses"
