Thats a fair call, I wouldnt want to be held partially resposible for its disassembly either

[Jacko]

Heheh, she cant be taken apart. Shes like an urban legend!  ;D Never seen on the roads but spoken about in quiet whispers around the racing circles.. 'you fellaz seen that civic with the f**k off front mount?' 'ITS A CITY NOT A CIVIC!' :P

[Jacko]

Hehe guess what guys. Go on guess. God damnit why are you still reading and not guessing?!!

I should be getting the shitty back very soon. I just need to go and get a new battery and that should be her problems fixed.

My mechanic has (partly bcuz of the wk/shop manual!  ;D) been able to fix a bunch of problems.. so far he has fixed the timing, plugs, power supply to ecu, injectors and map sensor.

MUHAHAHAHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[James]

WTF was the power supply to your ECU bung for? and when are you planning on handing over your first born child to the mechanic cause it sounds like by the amount of work hes done an arm and a leg arent gonna cut it

[Jacko]

Id rather sell a kidney  ;) Oh wait.. theyre almost both gone (damn grog!). Not actually sure how much hes gonna charge me because we're sought of mates and he came round my house a couple of times to look at it before I took it in.. oh well we'll see. I have money to pay for the bogandore so itll be right.  :D

Also fitted a new coil. Reason plugs went so quick is because the ones I bought from Autobarn were for the n/a model (i swear i told them turbs) and theyve melted  :o
If any of you guys have a part number for the plugs itd be much appreciated, thats about the only thing I need and then shes back on the road.

NGK BR6EBL-11

Hehehe, I scared the guy at Repco by knowing the code without him having to look it up. And i even told him he was out of stock and he needed to order them for me before he could check that too ::)

[Jacko]

Bwahah, thats it. Im going to memorise the code and do the same  :P

My mechanic just sent me a msg saying get BPR7ES11. Ill get the ones you guys said as Im quite positive you know more from experience  :D

Thanks guys Ill let you know how it goes (and my bad, I shoulda checked the info base)

[Jacko]

The plugs that you recommended were sold out so I ordered a pair and bought a set of the ones I had before.

Picked her up from the mech today, goes pretty hard. Gets a fair bit of wheel spin into second.  :D

Um I still think theyre might be a bit more work to do but Im happy. Feels like itd be doing lowish 16's. My V8 would kill it though  ;D

WTF?!

That would be like a factory City Turbo motor with a pod fiilter >:(

This engine should be pulling 14's at least, traction permitting...

[Jacko]

Well what should I look for now?  ???
The TW sensor error is still on.. where can I find a new one?

She pushed a radiator hose off yesterday.. can barely fit my hand down there too  :(

[Jacko]

Just chucked a cheap 80$ bov on this arvo. Made a bit of a difference, definately alot less lag when changing gears.
