Finally...

[B.Martin]

That dyno printout is from the UK, Si had it done before he sold it me. Mods as far as i can see is just an exhaust and i\'m assuming downpipe Si mentioned something about a downpipe, although i don\'t think its anything special. I\'ve not opened the airbox to see whats inside, but i do have a HKS replacment element at home either way but not expecting it to add another 10 BHP LoL. It seems as though i\'ve got pretty lucky, rust is minimal from what i can and everything bar the rear wiper and ancient tape player works! Even the sunroof works, all the guages are fine, the immobilizer works just right, the windows, wipers, central locking all good and after doing about 100 miles in it yesterday the battery is fine and keeps charge as well.

Pulls really well, i mean the \'tegra typr R is a mates and its got manifolds, filters and suspension upgrades on and my RX7 totally leaves it behind... Even when the VTEC kicks in yo\'. We were playing around on the motorway at gone 12 last night when it was totally empty and i was letting him go infront about 4-5 car lengths and i was still catching and passing him! Well impressed the turbo kicks in right when it should and doesn\'t let off untill i do.

I\'ll admit though, the gear stick is a bit floppy and third gear causes me some trouble but its probably because i\'ve not driven and FC for like 3 years. There are no problems with the box as it goes in every gear (when i find it) just the driver i think in this case. Interior is REALLY good, obviously its the lovely black and grey TII colours but its been really looked after, no rips in the seats etc or fag burns. Just need to replace the non working tape player with a CD playet (which i already have) hopefully that will be straight forward.

So yeah, i\'m one happy chappy and i\'m even impressed that i didn\'t use THAT much fuel last night, i put €50 in yesterday and after 100 miles of mostly hard driving its not even gone below a quarter from just over half.

Will give her a good clean tonight and get some more pics up.

Good times

Gearstick floppyness is probably just the collar piece in the selector cup - that\'s what it was on Lacey\'s EGI - it\'s a cheap enough part if you can find it

[B.Martin]

Great stuff, is that something you don\'t have spare? :2eek

[B.Martin]

This is my box of goodies

[m1tch]

I see something shiiiiiiny

[B.Martin]

There is potentially 3 shiney things there

[B.Martin]

Tried to get under her last night, but i forgot how low the FC was to the floor. Not like getting under even my lowered 106 GTI, haha. Think i need a jack, then maybe i can find out what exhaust and downpipe i have with some help from you lovely people. Had the car cleaned inside last night, looks really fresh now cleaned up very very well!

Got this in the boot as well.... Pretty cool i think, now i need one for under the bonnet! (wish it was purple though and not gold >.<)

[antnicuk]

you can get a quick shift for the FC quite cheaply and it will replace all the sloppiness and give you a shorter throw.  IIRC i paid £30 for mine.

[B.Martin]

Oooohhh. Where would i go to find such a device for such a price?

[ramirez]

bloody hell!

finally!!!

enjoy her, i didn\'t have her long but its a nice motor

[B.Martin]

I will don\'t worry, finally found someone who would insure me today! Did you ever have a head unit working in it?

[Lacey]

I\'ve got head units, infact I have more than one, all three work perfectly fine in the FC

[B.Martin]

I have a head unit to put in it, but the one that was in it was unplugged and some of the connections from the car were black taped up. Just being cautious, don\'t want it to go up in flames! :Giggle

[Lacey]

You should see mine, it looks like there was a rat living in the dash that survived on cables :p

[B.Martin]

One day i\'m going to get a japanese car and fill it with 1 kilometer of wiring and send it back to Japan, so they know how we feel!
