good point!
Aero engines is but the new Car Factory is

Had a complete muppet moment this evening. Did a great job of a nice tidy FPR install with the new inlet fuel line and tidying the route and pipes up. Went to tighten the outlet bajo bolt to the fuel rail and dropped a crush washer down through the fuel rails etc.

Can I find it can I

So close as well, I'm so pi$$ed at myself!

Carried on with the electrics those 70% done including the ICE.

Off to Demon Tweeks tomorrow I guess, for some crush washers!

Not quite wifey has had me DIYing all week.
Finally got in the garage today to continue.

Thought I'd better feed you guys some pictures



Upgraded Track Nitron Coilovers with the Amuse in the background





My modded CAT with extra wideband O2 sensor just before it





A sneak peek of what she looks like now I've dropped her back on to wheels after a month on axle stands, poor thing! You can see I painted the calipers satin black.



The super charger in the final stages of the install! I've doe some tidying of pipes and cables since this!

Having a bit of a nightmare getting to the right wires for the ESM
Soooo frustrating as that is the only thing left
Any tips on how to get round the triangular locking bolts Honda have used on the ECU?

I can't get close enough to the wires to work out which connector let alone which wires!

I got frustrated and moved on to installing the ICE whilst I pondered the ECU. So the amp and sub are in!
