  1. Shouldnt be too awkward hey. I'd imagine it being pretty straight forward. You will want to see how the car is wired to decide how to go about it. See if the loom splits at the shock tower or if loom is one part and goes into cabin. probably best is use cars original loom and add wire for vtec. Since your swapping a d for a d you should be able to utilise parts either to suit the loom. Use conversion harness and either p28 style chipped ecu or get deck ecu de-imobilised.
  2. Beautiful mate good job sorting out the old arches n that respray looks super
  3. Gave the old gal a well deserved wash and wax tonight.. really was a dirty bitch. Looks so much better for it.. messed around with a screw on fish eye lens got for me phone. Not bad I guess. Need to take it out somewhere nice one day get some decent pics. hmmmm ill be keeping an eye on that rather large van parked rather close to my cars sphincter.
  4. Yeah that's better.. you can get close to 200 for not too much. My c4 made around 174bhp standard except 2.5 mani and exhaust and a tune. added type r cams. Skunk Intake. And 70mm billet throttle and retuned. Made around 194bhp. So pretty decent for n/a and not mega money
  5. Concur with above you need to replace the thermostat it's a ten quid part. And see if your problem is improved. You don't want to allow the car to run hot. If that needle hits red. Say good bye to ya head gasket. Top the expansion bottle up. Yeah it's designed to have fluid in the bottle even if upto neck of rad.

    Wow that's super impressive. Must be really punchy that power n/a
  7. Also have you had to add cables for O2 to the d15 loom?
  8. Sounds like a duff sensor you able to try another?
  9. Should really maintain it's temp around or just under halfway whatever the ambient temperature. are you sure all the cooling system is serviced and working correctly. Ie thermostat is in good shape. Water pump in good shape? Fan works as it should. Do you suspect you are losing coolant??? I would fill the expansion to the recommended mark and then monitor it see if you losing coolant. then go from there. Check for leaks if you are losing it. Water pump can be a culprit on b series. Not so sure about d tho. but on b the water pump is covered by plastic cowling and often leaks un noticed. otherwise there may be more serious concerns. But first things first.
  10. Oh dear that's pretty knarly! Do you think the catch can is fairly air tight? I would like an air tight can for the pcv system. To maintain vacuum.
  11. I'm actually driving to montesquieu des alberes on the 10th. Think my french should get me by
  12. Like it where ya gonna plumb it in? Pcv valve or rocker cover?
  13. Not that hard.. Je m'apelle le cochon d'inde. Mon anniversaire est le maison. See easy!
  14. Non update as such other than I'm just super pumped. Done a 200 mile journey tonight for a friend to check out a subaru. didt skip a beat. I was having some serious hunting idle issues the other day which is fixed now. Adjust the throttle and cable as wasn't closing full on idle. now its perfect. moving front shocks onto that second notch has improved handling no end and also the ride is firm yet very tolerable. Much better. But really the thing I'm so happy about is the exedy clutch is a joy. So smooth light and easy. So much better than the f1 stage 3. And me gearbox is an absolute peach! Can't believe it works so well. Quiet and every gear on the limit. No snagging, crunching or blocking me out of gears. Just perfect! So happy I'm really enjoying driving it. Stopped in services and came out looked at it was just so happy. Love this car.
  15. You must be so proud mate. It's stunning
  16. Absolutely I'm rocking a whale doobery.. It ain't in there for performance that's for sure.
  17. For an accurate run. You choose a gear that has a ratio closest to 1:1 In an ep3 that is actually 5th. So dunno about people using 4th. Whatever rho don't matter does it. Still healthy power in my opinion especially if ya got a cone filter in there. They usually zap a bit of power o these from what I've been told.
  18. 5th gear looks spot on in an ep3 0.972:1 Perfect gear for dyno run
  19. @Chandler dunno Probs more like Dwayne Pipe.. maybe hes a plumber cus he's definitely not a body work technician. Rough b*****d.
