its just the wing which has been squashed. the bonnet is just like a slight bend in the top corner. which is odd, as it couldnt of touched it

Few more parts turned up yesterday...

x2 s/s o2 bosses for my Feels manifold
OEM oil pump + seal and bolt
OEM timing belt

All I need now for the rebuild is a water pump and tensioner, head gasket and cam cover gaskets and piston rings.

I want some new Magnecores, my ones seem pretty old now.

Did you buy them new, if so, how much?

Also, any particular reason you went with ST stem seals over OEM?

Nice parts anyways, always great to see goodies turning up for your car.

Leads were 2nd hand, but only have a couple thousand miles on them.
best place to buy new is motorsportworld.co.uk, they are around £65

ST stem seals i got cheap lol, so i couldnt say no. not sure which set to use to be honest.

no, because I need to leave it for the insurance company to arrange the repairs. ive hopefully sourced a new wing though, just incase..

Wont they go to Honda for one if they are sorting it out for you.

Also, why didn't you go with the ITR TB?

The B16B one should actually flow the air faster for his setup. It should work out better than using an ITR one.

ITR/CTR TB are the same size.
