My Euro 'Build' Thread

Liam i am assuming you got the P2r intake manifold gasket that goes between the head and injectors.

Racerwannabe - The 2 intake manifold gaskets i posted in the above post can go on the stock (RBB) i was running that for a few weeks before i ended up chucking the RBC which i then kept the (middle picture) gasket and sold the other one.

2 different things.

Civic Si TB gasket (if you get TB spacer + TB gasket this one will work)
do not buy TSX designed ones cause the port holes in the TSX are different.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm a bit confused by the wording, but I was talking about the one between the throttle body and the intake manifold (the throttle body spacer gasket I'm assuming?) as opposed to the one between the IM and the head itself.

I understand that without the spacer, you only need one gasket, do you know which one exactly?

no,

There are 2 intake manifold gaskets,
if u use RBC then you only use head/injector one.

if u use RBB you can use both head/injector one; and K24 thermal one.

if you use the spacer you should get the (2 of) TB gasket and change to extended studs, else you can just use the stock TB gasket with the RBC.

Hope this clarifies things better.

Thanks Dazza. Why did you go back to RBB?

Integral, this a great euro build thread. keep up the good work. Nice to see an euro with different headers than the rest

lol 6500 words later it was done, it was too long for me at 6450

Well tell me when you've finally read through the whole thing

Thanks man! As I said before the J's Racing seem to the same as the Todas but without flex pipe. Should be interesting to see the power they make with a proper catback!

Yeah the thermal intake manifold gasket. Do you reckon with a bit more airflow it might fill in the gap in the torque down low?

rofl no i got the gaskets before installed on the RBB, then said to myself fk it i am going RBC so bought it all before AUD sucked donkeys balls.

so when i did install the RBC i didn't need the middle section gasket which i sold already.

well because you got a short ram it already improves it; with my CAI now fully setup i can feel the low end torque has lost a little.

so just try feed a cold pipe to it to feed cold air.

I've definitely gotta have a go at driving your car!

TSX throttle body is taking it's god damn time

Update

Today while driving home from a friend's house my engine light came on, I was just cruising, had gone WOT for about 1 second for the whole drive and properly warmed the car up and everything. I'm hoping the MAP sensor in the RBC is loose and giving weird readings and it's not to do with the o2 sensor in the exhaust as that will require a lot more work

. Not a big deal, but I just don't like having it there, makes me feel like the car is dying...

On another more positive note my throttle body should be arriving tomorrow (key word being 'SHOULD') and I can properly re-fit the MAP sensor if it is actually the problem. Other than that, the ecu seems to have fully adjusted and the power is noticeably increased from the day or 2 after the RBC and headers were installed which is good

Will post as things come up!
