shebabby Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 nuts build props to ya. Were did you get manifold from/how much it set ou back?i got the manni from ebay mate it was £98 i think if you buy one bare in mined it wont fit perfect mine sits to far to the left ov the car and is 2" shorter for some reason !apart from that it was a bargain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shebabby Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 ok thought i would post about the drive so far and should sum it up . i thought she drove 100% before but now shes a monster and i like it only bad point is it takes longer to warm up now and with that i have got a flat spot at about 5000 rpm untill the thermostat opens but apart from that it feels like she has grown an extra pair ov legs and realy takes off now the clutch is a hand full at times but iv got use to it one day it bites at the bottom then the next day its at the top ?also the new polly bushes i changed on the gear linkage has put preasure on the uv joint and worn the bushing out there so thats my nextjob .apart from a few teething problems im very happy now next is to lower her and new seats also wind deflectors and a few other bits and bobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nairnster Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Very nice mate!!The engine bay is mint, and love the way the manifold has coloured with use, looks much better IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shebabby Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 thanks paul the manni looks cool with all the different colours but you cant realy tell in the pics its not bad realy to say i didnt plan to go that far my intentions was to fit a few parts and just a general clean but i got carried away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shebabby Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 intake is very short maybe adding to the 5k flat spot prob but hey ho looks nice always had a short intake andrew and no problems the flat spot goes when the car is up to temp ie: when the thermostat is open !i reccon its the fueling ov the ecu thats the problem but doesnt realy bother me as it only does it once or twice untill its been past the vtec then doesnt do it again untill its cooled back down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
