    B16B ITB TUNING

    Hi where in bucks are you ? I'm based in Fleet, Hants, I have lots of experience with different Itb's on Hondas, I have a synchroniser, as others have said it very difficult to get Itb's to idle on a map sensor, they much prefer throttle pot only. Give me a call Tony 07799717800

    EK9 Rolling Shell with V5 Price ?

    Exactly that's my point !!!! We bought an b16b engine just before Christmas for £600 and a S4c £250, if you add £400 for a pair of good recaro's and max £1000 for exhaust, lights & other parts that makes a bare shell worth even more !!!!! It's not about chancers, more about buyers...

    EK9 Rolling Shell with V5 Price ?

    If a complete car in good condition sells for between £5000- £6000, a complete engine £1500 max, a s4c £400 max, then that would make a rolling shell worth £3000-£4000. In reality I don't think that anyone would pay that, but £2000 -£3000 would be a realistic price for a good example.

    Engine Removal

    Hi, You need to either take engine & box out together or box first then engine, it comes out the bottom quite easily if they are together but then you have to lift the car over the engine ! So the easiest way is to lift the engine & box out the top. Regards tony
