Installed this mugen replica intake!
Couldn't properly test it because of the rain. Had 1 or 2 WOTs and was shocked by the extra performance. The noise was brilliant and i did feel more power! One of the best $450 I've spent on the car!
It didn't come with instructions and was a slight effort squishing it in and bolting it up. But it is solid and a good piece of kit. Well worth the time taken of 3 hours with my GF helping me out.
It's a Tegiwa replica if anyone is interested to know. Ill post another pic showing it fully finished tomorrow!

I copped one Friday night 10 minutes after work at 11.10pm!

I also measured their height test wheel, it ain't 100mm

[PHO]

How do they test height anyways?

100mm wheel on a stick and roll it under car to see if it hits anything?

[Spoon-Accord]

Yep

It's like a Long piece of wood, a wheel that white in middle and black on edges ( its like the down hill cart wheels but very small) and they just shove it under a car and make sure it hits something just to prove you wrong

When I lowered my car, I used a measure tape to measure a piece of wood, 11 cm give or take,that wheel the cops had had at least 2-3 cm more that didn't clear, so how can the algal height be 100mm??

[mocchi]

probably hit your oil pan or front sway bar or resonator or whatever else under there
when you got your 11mm measurement, did you measure from side skirt or something?

[Spoon-Accord]

11cm from my rear resonator ( ek9 b pipes have 2 resonators) one right where the axle flange is) that's my lowered point ATM, that's excluding my beaks bar cause that's low an not factory

[TranceZiggy]

If you definitely measured from the lowest point on your car and you're certain you're at or above 100mm from the lowest point, you were either on uneven road, or the cops were just pricks. I'm willing to bet it's the latter. If you can easily get the defect cleared, do it, then put it back again and pass them off as wankers.

was around chapel st, seeing my mate before he left australia... was pretty dog what they did as they waited for me to come to my car than talk to me...

lucky they didnt fined me, although they said they were gonna but saw the uni sticker LOL....

coulda been worse, they coulda done the exhaust, hid and few other things, but other wise, defect for ride height is easy to clear, jack up the coils, clear 100mm, easy :D

Hey did you request that rego or just random?

I didn't request. wouldn't dare in a riced cxi.
i should have asked the previous owner. i don't pay any sort of fee for the plates though so i'd gues they're random but i don't know

[TranceZiggy]

If I'm correct, so long as the number plate is a combination of letters & numbers & is 6 characters, there are no additional fees, so the number plate could have been requested, but because it fits the criteria, there are no annual fees. Eg. My mum's Kia Rio is "MUMOF-3" and my step father's FJ Holden is "BARN-67" and neither of them pay annual fees.

..It could also be random, lol.

Oh and to be on topic: Installing my SiR lip this afternoon or tomorrow depending if this rain will bugger off for a bit..

what year model is the ECU?

[FAITHLESS]

I suspect it's 1997 but I can't be sure. OBD2A.

[dorikin]

OBD2a should have immobiliser, is it Australian spec ECU?

[FAITHLESS]

Yes AU spec ECU. Will the stock EK1 ignition switch affect the ECU in any way?
My starter motor could just be dead.

[dorikin]

OBD2a Aus spec ECU would have immobiliser. Follow ECU-MAN's DIY article to disable the immobiliser

Thanks man. I'll make 100% sure the starter motor is working first but it does look like I'll have to open up the ECU and bypass the immobilizer.

The picture makes it look much brighter than it actually is.. Still some bright spots, but not as noticeable as it was before & looks 10 times better imo. Very happy with it now.

[TbM]

looks much better ziggy, I like the green, looks like you have hotspots at 100km/h and 2k rpm, you can use paper and/or aluminium foil to redirect the light, ill see if I have pics to help when I get off work this morning.

Not the best, but better than it was

washed my friends one

[THE 2BSEEN]

If it does look Matt,run some clear over it. Could be the cool weather hurting the paint loL
It's not the first time I've seen the super sonic blue paint look like this....

Any ways my ek is being repaired and painted after being side swiped

[roberlonies]

Yeah, the paint is matt cause clear coat hadn't been sprayed on yet. Was a cheap short term home job fix to get rid of the old peeling sun damaged roof paint.

[aowwllan]

white eks are hot.

Heres mine.. still a fair bit of work. Bought a set of wheels for it not too long ago. only fit the rears since it was starting to get a little dark.

http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/3931/img3197f.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/33/img3197f.jpg/)

Repraying it soon.. Contemplating between Jet black or STI black (Black with gold pearl)

Any suggestions?

[THE 2BSEEN]

So my ek was side swiped
I took it in to get the damage fixed, then thought **** it.
So it's now getting a full respray
super sonic blue.
mmmmm yum

Most likely white, was tempted to do them pink, but thought that might look a little tacky.

[Niko]

ah ye, you going to get stickers made up?

[Evlgurl]

Yeah, will have stickers done.
I think it look a bits bare without them.
I've got white wheels on my EVO with pink rim tape, so was also looking at that as an option.

[Niko]

ah ye, ye don't really look good without stickers, managed to get 10 on ebay for 20 bucks but that was about 4 months ago, went for a semi matte black

Don't like tinted tail lights at all. You should remove that wing too.

Went for a run and one of the driveshafts popped out, disengaging them both. Was so worried I'd been given a shit gearbox.
Engine is running like a dog and wont rev above 3500 rpm. Just needs a few more sensors plugged in and should be ok.

Ahh, I got told the same thing on my EK about 18 months ago and they'd need replacing soon... but explains the creaks at the back then...

Can't you get an aftermarket set of Hardrace bushes - a couple of people on the forum have said these are pretty good...?

I think when I do my shock upgrade I'll get all the bushes replaced to tighten everything up once and for all.

Sounds like it's in limp mode.

Not running P/S or Aircon? Or are you installing them later

Yeah it's rev limited so definitely limp mode. I'll have to start working through all the CEL's if It's still on after I've connected everything and reset the ECU.
No P/S or aircon. Car came without air con from factory and I'm after a B16A2 P/S pump and bracket. Or perhaps a B18C power steering hose.

[dorikin]

Your EK hose should connect up to an obd2 B18C pump too or any obd2 b-series pump

hardrace are fine from what I've read, ill be using them when I start redoing my bushes, if your worried tho you can get oem ones fairly cheap from oem Acura parts or lings, think the part # is 52385-S21-003 for the updated one or 52385-SR3-000 for the old one
