And how it stands now.

Looks like i need a new rear bumper. Much Melty.Image



How does she drive?


Epic. So much fun. With the instant throttle response, pretty instant torque response and short final drive i have power in any gear at any time. Around town i found myself driving around in 5th Gear at 20-30mpg with no effort or gear changing. In fact i only change down a gear to up the revs and reduce the vibrations from the hard engine mounts.

It will wheel spin in 1st and 2nd even with 245 ad08r tyres. You are in 2nd gear for around 1.5secs before you are ready to change to 3rd it revs so quickly.


The 3" exhaust is quieter and louder than the Mugen. Depends on the revs. at 70mph cruise on flatish uphills its very loud. 80mph is absolutley silent. On full chat its gorgeous and you can hear pops and bangs and the vtec engage depending on throttle response. VTEC engages at 3200rpm so above that i can engage it with a press of the pedal.

The engine is smooth and tuned solidly. Rich has really outdone himself. Its an absolute hoot to drive.




Next on the list.
- Sort dash vibrations from the hard engine mounts and balancer shaft delete (already tightened the glove box down that was loose)
- New JDM rear bumper respray....again. 3 times now. :lol:
- Remove and sell aquamist water/meth system
- Sort Audio out....still
- Retrim DC2 recaros and ep3 wheel.

Glad you finally have it back and it's running right.
Doesn't look like that was a dynodynamics dyno (TAT don't list that their software is compatible with dynodynamics).
Any leads on a replacement bumper?

Well Honda uk used the same dyno at Owen developments to test the new fk2 when they first came out and they tested accurate to the figures Honda give. The calibration was the same between both of those graphs. Good enough for me.
