Thorburnlads Eg Hatch


Jimbo i know lol. it was me being a total bodge job trying to create something that never would have worked, im a peni*
And before anyone comments on how unclean and scummy the engine bay is, i need to get it running then clean :)
 
Its looking well! At least the engine is in! Hopefully you get it all sorted and take her out on the road soon :)) What manifold is that?
 
yeah i hope lol!!!
its a cheapy 4-1 ceramic coated thing from ebay, seller called 2fast2cool but his company is called japparts. I mean it will do me for now only reason i got it was due to the ceramic coating and the cheap price

Got my gear linkage today off a dc2,got it fitted before and i have to say i am chuft :) but my clutch still feels light after bleeding
i mean the last owner of the engine said it had a new clutch about 1k miles before i got it, stage 2 aswell. It has no problem engaging gears such as reverse and it doesnt slip in the slightest! just so so light! should i try swapping my slave from my d series tranny over????

Needs new bonnet as its creased.. back arches finished with laquer.. side strips and skirts
colour coded.. a good bloody clean ooo and IACV sorted and Horn seems to of packed in with being left in the rain with nothing to protect it so i can take it to get MOT'D n Taxed
Cant wait for the trip to the MOT place
 
Well :) had a go in the car today... fook me its quick! quicker than what i ever expected, id say its quite a lot quicker than a b18c integra i was in other week.
LSD works brilliantly
Very pleased :)
think i have also got to the bottom of my IACV problems
Its due to the wrong behind dash fusebox, im getting a CEL 20 electronic load detector
which can be disarmed by chipping
 
Got my ECU back from H-Tune today..... What a differance!
like i am amazed!
i sent it thursday, got it back this morning :) i have a lil vid of acceleration

The launch is set up perfect, however now when i get into second, even witht the lsd i cant get grip lol it hits 60 in about 6secs no joke. But due to my lambda buggering up with this run it dissables vtec lol. i will get a better vid soon

Hard wired the ELD, got rid of cel 20 then went and took a lambda off a d15b7 which got rid of my CEL 41, so right now my car is all back together, CEL free, engine bay looking cleaner and ready for the MO-FO MOT :D
waa hooo! so chuft!!
