Exhaust fitting is underway! bit fiddly and had some problems with a rounded off nut on the cat. Hopefully all will be sorted tomorrow and ready to hear it go

 

Manifold is on

 

New spoiler arrived today

 

The look on my gf face when i said i was saving for a holiday..

And then said im buying some rota grids instead. PRICELESS

4 days later shes back running after her engine swap, came across alot of problems!! when she was first started after engine change the idle was bouncing and then when she was taken down the road the gear box went,  didnt no it was gearbox at the time so just bought clutch kit and fitted that, then relised what it was and changed gearbox. engines been in and out like a yoyo, im absolutely exhausted and the help i received was fantastic! couldnt of done it without you guys (if you read this)

 

 

just an issue regarding oil light being on, may have to change sensors.

 

I can say after 4 adys of all that im taking a break from mechanical stuff!

Empty engine


The 2 snapped bolts!


Jrsc dismantled to respray the manifold

Exhaust finally fitted after a few problems with rounded bolts with help of a blow torch! also mugen spoiler on

 

me getting to bolts on back box lol

 

 

Pornhub linked me here with promise of finding sluts locally.

Also my beloved civic had its 50,000 mile birthday today!

fix the site before u start modding your car!

@BB Baboonface nightmare! lol didnt leave til 5.30pm, got home at 8.30pm traffic was awful

 

To be fair, it ended up being a totally pointless and expencive day lol

 

from waiting since 9am for a smaller belt to arrive, it finally turned up at 2pm. Yes i was sat an TDi for 5 hours lol

 

they got the 3.2 pulley and belt fitted and then onto the dyno for 2 hours!

 

Paul couldn't get the power any higher then 285bhp because the clutch couldn't hold, just kept slipping. Still got the OEM clutch on, i knew it would need replacing at some point due to the extra power the charger puts on it. Ive done well to get 2+ years out of it. Does feel better to drive but now i need a new clutch. Didnt think i was going to get home at one point, about 30 mins my house i started slipping like made and stinking but i managed to tip toe home.

 

Few things they found :

 

Small leak from the oil sump (needs a new rubber)

Tracking out

Buckled front alloy (was bouncing on the dyno)

HKS b-pipe too restrictive, need 3"

 

 

More money!!

Hi

 

Rear wing now done.

I will start to make more aero parts for the car.

 

 

Hi

 

Got the new rear brakes pre-fitted.

 

6 pot on the front, and 4 pot rear should do the job.

Lol at least this site has a sense of humour other Type R sites that I wont mention and I dont post in any more are very strict. I have th spelling disorder which is hard too spell lol irony,  so I appologies in advance auto correct is my best friend well kind off, chunky fingers  lol  I am never offensive in what i write and I can take a comment  as I admire commical comments as life too short to be to too serious. Any thing I can do to help out with advice, generally after problems I learn of first hand I will gladly.

Still roof to do and a couple more parts to fit

its just two bolts you fanny!

Parked my car up outside asda in the rain and some header put a note under my wiper sayin join epcivic. Don really do much of this internet stuff thought I would give this a go cause im a die hard honda head.
