Re: EE9 B16B - The Speedboat

Post by Marc_EE9 »

So I'm back in the UK for three weeks, for a stag do, wedding, and a few reunions/parties. The stag do was yesterday and I couldn't go as I have a burst ear drum and so can't be around loud noises (clubs etc), so was pretty pissed off about that, but my health comes first these days.

I'm VERY happy to see the Speedboat again! :D
I had to clean up the spark plugs as it was misfiring, but it's sweet as a nut, oil is still crystal clear. I haven't felt VTEC for a long time, but I have been driving 3.8 V6's for the past two months so have had power, and my mate has just had a 3.6 V6 SC engine fitted into his Holden Commodore, which is fun! :twisted:

Going to get the Mugen's on today (if the rain holds off), slap the strut braces back on, get insurance tomorrow, and hopefully get a slot at the MOT centre, so I can be on the road Tuesday!

Can't wait!!!

haha, it hasn't changed mate, but I will no doubt take a few snaps in the week.

I also forgot I had Eibach springs on the car, which is a result. No need to get coilies now.
