Steve, the gruppe is great, the growl even before vtec kicks in around 5k is a cool note, get a lot of stares now with the gruppe on as it's loud as. When i get the chance i'm going to modify the oem scuttle to use with the scoop as not really happy with the gruppe scuttle, how did you find it on yours?
congrad mate on getting your ride.
i want some pic!!!
ps. pls get onto MSN when u have time, i need to chat with you re. compliance.

Now i used up all the double sided tape and it doesnt move at all. Also that black cushion tape they supply i had to put on the inside top end of my hood to stop it rubbing up and scratching the main body part of the gruppe m.
Ive seen how people modify and use the oem scuttle and that job turns out pretty good aye. I might try it 1 weekend if im feeling keen enough LOL
Also Congrats on ur new car buddy :D welcome to the ep3 family ! !
Congrats on EP3 mate, I shell join EP3 family soon as well hehe
me too perhaps... only things im not sure of, is do i want another FWD car, and do i want something faster lol i want an s2k but they cost so damn much!
Thanks, really enjoying it at the moment.
Steve, yeh vtec with the gruppe is crazy!!! the gurgle that you get with about half throttle as well around 4000rpm is nice.
yeh i can't get it to sit right so I am going to do that scuttle mod one day when i get the chance. how do you go with washing your car haha? i washed it today and put a plastic bag over it to be safe. i have the same problem with the main body of the gruppe, does yours move around even with the bigger round clamp fully tightened? mine still allows the gruppe to move from side to side or does yours not move?
going to order a rm-01a very very soon as well. what exhaust did you decide on or still thinking?
rm-01a, are they very loud?? I want to get toda high power system and toda headers for mine (well once I buy the car Ill start ordering these things)
How much for rm-01a??
HAHAH the washing issue is funny with me. I put a sheet of cardboard to cover the inlet scoop ! ! i look like a idiot when i take my car for a spray at the local car lovers washing station, everyone looks at me like why the hell has he got a sheet of cardboard on his front window lolQuote:

But when i got my car serviced at mechanic they said they fixed it right up it wont move anymore and i took a look and i was like wtf ?? how did u guys do that ?? and they said they just kept tightening it till it stopped rocking. so yeah mine sits perfectly still now but b4 it didnt. So i say carefully tighten it up slowly till it stops rocking.
With the exhaust im still deciding, i really dont know which brand to pick and all are pretty pricey ! ! god dam i wish it was as cheap as it was when i modified my pulsar sss lol But yeah been looking at the fuji rm-01a like urself. All the reviews for it are saying its awesome and the sound note of it is nice. Probably get that with mayb toda headers im not sure. With tax return coming up in a couple of months, ill see then whats in my price range and just go for it hehe :D
