There should be a huge YET on there as well. I didn't have an accident till I was 21. Going against the statistics I suppose?

I've been running my carbs unfiltered, but with trumpets for about 2.5 years now. Sounds great.

Gizmo, be aware that the clutch on this may have a different amount of splines to the EF2, you may be lucky though.

Looks nice on the wheels, will look gret once it's lowered.

Mistmatching rims, now where have I seen that before :lol: Nick, looks a million times better than when I seen it last round yours with the silly red coloured trims and no front bumper. You've transformed this car into a proper crx now. Did the Inlet/TB/Comptech make much of a difference? Tuned on ...

Without braking, 50mph will easily do that damage and more, especially if an old car is hit by a newer one.

Oh and your Accord will be fine if it is the same shape as mine (98-02, same shape as a Type R) as they are NCAP 4 rated.

So I took it down last Thursday for an MOT and it passed :D (with a little fiddling with the emmissions). Unfortunately the extra power put too much strain on the clutch and it started slipping, so I headed down to Tegiwa in the afternoon and picked up a stage 2 clutch and cover plate (thanks Johnny...

I sent the engine down to Daz and he checked the head and block were true and popped in a new Golden Eagle head gasket that I imported from the US and added on a set of adjustable cam gears that I had bought, along with a modified rocker cover to suit. Meanwhile, Dave_1809 and I started dealing with...

So I had a bit of a project on my hands. I headed down to Daz's and we set about trying to sort the issues, the error codes were pretty easy, the oil leak at the back took a bit more work but we managed it, and we did a quick road tune to improve on the (probably generic) tune that was in there. We ...

Another DNR B20

Cross posted for those of you that aren't on CRX UK I've had this for about a year now, so I thought a project thread was overdue, plus it's done for the moment, I'm going to take a while to enjoy it before doing anymore work. I bought a B20 VT with running problems, but a very good spec from the fo...

If all goes well with my B20 over the next few days I may take it down to Shakespeare in October, could see who can go faster? :D Sounds like an :idea: What's the date again? I once went to Elvington in my EF and it was awesome, I started running around 1-2pm and got about 8 runs in the space of 1 ...
