  1. With the cam in this car will be a Bseries eater!... Rate the blue tooth thing. Maybe a link for us who have the obd2 setup. I only discovered it myself today. My mate who works for the AA hooked his laptop up and WOW! couldn't believe all the information! This thing has 2 02 sensors...

    thanks mate hopping to get cam in soon just waiting for the tool to turn up

    it stays with the b18's as it is, eats b16s 

    i don't know where to get the blue tooth thing from as it was in the car already but ill try and find out 

    its definitely something to get though as it reads every thing almost 

    when i fitted the manifold i used it to fault code cheek the engine and wipe the problems away and tell me what vacuum i have 

    and find the leaks mad bit of kit to be fair 

     

    So good!! :-)

    cheers tom appreciate it 

  2. Red calipers?

    Bit loud maybe?

    its all they had in the shop i wanted yellow 

    you can't see them so its not so bad 

    just when i went to cleaning the wheels all you see is nasty looking callipers so red it was 

     

     

     

    right been a while since i posted any thing on here but theres some updates not a lot but progress is progress 

     

    fineally got some wind deflectors deffinately worth there money 

     

    got some skunk2 rear lca's and beaks bar 

     

    and picked up for only 134 squids an eldbrock performa x manifold was a bitch to fit 

    as its was meant for a d16y8 engine and the w4 that i have in mine is very similar but being a 2000 model 

    it has air injection and a ridiculous amount of vacuums 

    and later found out that the manifold was for a z6 

    had to modify my injectors and inlet gasket and a few other bits but its on and works 

    and makes a dirrty noise in and out of vtec  :-D

    only problem is today i have idle hunt just got to properly blank one of the vacuums 

     

    after fitting it me and a mate took it out for a test drive and i went and shaped my drive shaft in the box aswell

    so two hours later i have my old gear box back in 

    so apart from the crunch in 2nd 3rd and 4th and the idle hunt it goes very well  WACK11111

     

    im also modifying the bumper 

     

    thanks all

  5. Awesome what data can be read from the ecu??

    Manifold pressure?

    Intake temp?

    it will read almost any thing your ecu reads 

    And almost any sensor on the engine / gearbox 

    I have to pop out in abit so I'll turn it on and take another of it working 

    It's maaad. I forget it's turned on and then get it the car later give it some stick 

    And my phone starts shouting at me that it's not up to temp haha 

    And to ease off 

     

    I just..... want my car to look like yours soooo bad! Just looks absolutely stunning!!  [smitten.gif]

     

    Oh yeah that torque pro looks cool ;)

    Cheers mate it slowly coming together

  9. Man I love this car!  [smitten.gif]

     

    I quite like the VTi lip on the front and sure does go well with the rest of the VTi-S kit, but of course I would say that... ;)

    haha cheers mate i prefer this lip over the vtis one alot less aggresive 

    your car is looking good now mate seen the pics you put up from your meet 

    looks clean as fook 

  10. cheers all didn't relise there where so many replies sorry 

    there is a few things that where going to take place on this car 

    original intentions where to swap the engine but then there isnt really alot of difference in 

    the d and b engines performance wise ( any thing can be put on paper its how it puts it down )

    proven with many races with various cars one bieng a h22 type r witch didnt get too far ahed 

    and a type r ep again not a quick as its hyped up 

     

    so i have gone a diffrent route and decided to build a all motor D series 

    it was going to stay secret till finished but bisimoto have taken the p**s makeing the parts and sending them out 

    but hopefully be here soon  :roll:

     

     

    I thought the car looked familiar! looks well nice! whats the wheels specs?

    cheers mate there 16x8 et20 195/45/16 

     

    Random observation but is that a obd bluetooth dongle sticking out behind center console in one of your pics? What's that connected too?? And can you use torque pro??

    yes it is cool little app too i havent properly set it all up yet though 

    and its conected to the obd2 port

     

    love the look of this car but just cant take to the rover sticker on back. lol

    haha its gone started  to anoy me 

     

    Long term project???

    Seems like you dont have much left to do! :)

    Beautiful wheels! Loving the 'gearknob' :) Very original!

    Mugen style grille for MB? is that from a EK civic? Didnt know it was a straight fit?

    cheers bud

    as mentioned nick made it very rare lol 

    its not a ek one 

    also its long time because i cant save so it takes forever to get stuff

    gear knob comes with snap on guarantee too haha 

    couple of pics of it now i changed the front lip as the vtis one is abit common now and wanted something more sutle
