So thought I'd start a thread

I'll just post a few pics to begin with as that's ultimately what people want [emoji85][emoji23]

I've had Hondas for quite a few years now it's like a curse i just can't help myself

It all started with a EC9 I was quite a regular with 4GUK and I'm still quite close to a lot of members on there attending JAE with them for 2 years now.

Image

I bought a honda after a shocking experience with a MK2 golf what I loved but didn't offer the performance or reliability of the rice burner

Image

After the EF 5 eks followed hahaha

The EK3 beater
Image

I had a SAAB 93 HOT for a period of time that made me realise I can afford to run a 23mpg car Hahahaha

Image

This was foolishly the run around whilst I finished my South African import EK ImageImageImage

Some how managed to have a prelude to which the old dear drives now as she said she's rather that than the Mercedes hahahahahha Image

So anyway the saab went to a close friend but before I sold it I bought my still current daily that I must say it's proably the best car I've owned, i love driving it. I'm ashamed of this but it's a perfect daily for me ImageImage

It's got a 4-2-1 supersprint manifold coilovers to raise her up, allterrain tyres thule roof rack ep3 steering wheel bla bla

This was also my tent at JAE as the seats fold into a bed, and for a 6,8 chap to fit inside is quite impressive ahhahaha

EP3 JRSC AEM watermeth race logic traction control blah blah again

Image[img]https://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/04/1 ... 93e000.jpg[/img

So Anyway I've just purchased ANOTHER BB8

Spec is

Tein coilovers with edfc controller
H22A7 fitted by Honda unbelievably
Lightend fly wheel
AEM long arm
JDM fogs

Maybe some other bits haven't really had a chance to have a look tbh

I've got a spare set of tein coilovers and I believe I have a spare set of edfc adjusters knocking about from K20EPP

What I intend to put up for sale, best to put some effort in before posting jobby for sale! I intend to purchase a few bits here and there so hopefully you guys will help me out and I'll help you out :-)

So the deal is that I'll be parting out a lot of bits from this car due to the fact it will be a track car, I'm feeling guilty already due to the condition the vehicle is in! Heated seats cruise control like all the bells and whistles nice and comfortable you know , but it's not going to be its purpose

A little about me some of you may know me or seen me JAE 6two1 etc I'm 6,8 so quite a lump to miss ! Im a qualified marine engineer although I find myself being a vehicle tech for quite a large franchise I shoot..... a lot , genurally body lemonade about believing life spent have to be expensive " what a joke why" so between myself and few other we make things on a budget!

The current situation

Mate 1 pug gti6 crammed caged driver ability mid- good
Mate 2 fiestuuurrddd puma powered striped manifold few mods driver ability - organ donor

Few other mates running alright cars but all the above were purchased for £500 or less ..... and I needed some of that so here she's is have a watch have a laugh and enjoy :-)

Some decent cars there.

Did you get the ep civic mapped on water/meth injection and did it make a difference.

Thats one of the final things i need to do on my Prelude. Aquamist Water/meth remap.

I personally wouldn't have a map dependant on WMI, it's to lower IAT's stop det not to make more power!

Despite what people say I'd always run 50/50 with de ionised water :-) hope this helps

Be careful where you mount the nozzle! Venting meth to atmosphere ain't cool!

I have loads of devils own brew.
Twin nozzle setup to atomizer better.

I was going to remap on water/meth as the aquamist system has its own map switching failsafes.
I need to experiment. On.a very freaking insane drive my iat went to 100deg c. No detonation but I could feel the ecu pull timing.
