Back yet again, still have my 96 2 door Tracker that I'm building up... finally sourced a good D16z6 Honda crank after 4 months tho, bunch of flaky ass Honda owners.


ANYHOW, I picked up a 94 16v 4 door Sidekick JX for $1,000. Runs, drives, etc. Inspection is out, needs a new bolt/spring kit on the exhaust and donut gaskets for the downpipe. Also, after ~50 miles of driving it threw a CEL (code 51 I think it was) for the EGR system.

Tore the intake manifold off to get into all the ports in the underside of the runners and ALL were clogged, EGR was nearly clogged fully as well on one side.


Plans (getting rid of old parts from Tracker and selling the Sidekick to fund the Tracker build further).

Sell = Profit (hopefully) and put the money into a solid axle swap on the Tracker!

Few days after I got it...
