Thanks for the offer Pip, but a red harness on a red seat?... I don't think so! I had to convince myself a red seat in a red car would work! But I draw the line there! lol

Just takes patience as well. I'm in no real rush at the minute so it helps. Just know what things have sold for in the past, set yourself a limit, and stick to it You'll never lose out that way and sometimes (like I seem to quite often) you'll come up trumps!

I did wonder. Think I'll stick with my original idea as I imagine modifying the rails to suit the seat will be easier than modifying rails to suit the car. Thanks though! :D

(LB) Loads More Trick Bits & A Small Announcement

Post by NafemanNathan » Tue Feb 07, 2012 1:32 pm

Not so much an update, but it's been a while, so I just thought I'd give a little teaser of what's to come, and show you a few more bits I've acquired more recently :p ...

















Image

Weapon-R Oil catch Tank and Radiator Overflow Tank. Large Capacity, but super light...

Image

Mist Washers. Shall be mounting them on the Skuttle Panel out of sight...

Image

A few extra bits of Silicone Ducting and Graphite Heat-Wrap. To replace my current heat soaking ebay ducting...

Image

Goodridge Radiator Hose End Finishers...

Image

Mugen Pedals. Replicas of course ;-) ...

Image

Mugen Oil Cap...

Image

And now the more exciting stuff :D ...

Skunk2 Stage 2 Tuner Cams...

Image

Skunk2 Dual Valve Springs...

Image

Skunk2 Titanium Retainers...

Image

HRC Racing 255lph Fuel Pump...

Image

Rosko Racing ATR Inlet Manifold Throttle Cable Bracket...

Image

Rosko Racing H22a Thermo Inlet Manifold Gasket...

Image

Rosko Racing ATR/RDX Specific Large Bore Fuel Rail...

Image

With Fitting Kit and Adapters...

Image

Genuine Acura RDX 410cc Injectors. These have been proven to provide an extra 3 to 4 bhp on an otherwise standard spec purely down to their superior spray pattern alone. Hopefully I should see some worthy gains from these bad boys along side everything else...

Image

RDX Injector Pigtails and Clips...

Image

And last, but not least... Neuspeed Front Strut Brace. Cheers Frank :D.

And again sorry Phil :mrgreen: ...

Image

Bring on the Sunshine!!!

Oh, one little obstacle to get in the way of everything though...

The missus is expecting our first baby ;-) ...

And that's quite a collection of parts you've got there - speaking from experience, I'd attempt to get it all done before the sprog arrives ;)
