#2444 its a long time since i have updated, i was gunna wait to give the car its first polish but the weather is shit here.

so she is abit dirty but that wont be for long!

some of you know i blew my b16 gearbox and clutch about a month ago so i have upgraded to a UKDM lsd ITR box. no pics of the box but they aint really the best looking things in the world, was abit pissed off that the exedy organic clutch that was in there was distroid though, only done about 2500 miles. even though i wasnt very impressed by it it was the only one i could afford to upgrade to. lol

so here is a pic of the clutch.

i have also fitted my SRS manifold, de-cat and cat back. no pics of the exhaust on the car yet as it sits abit wonky so i need to sort that out.

apart from the back box sitting abit wonky the system is great, very nice sound in and out of vtec!

oh, the manifold sits about 1/2 from the floor so ive gotta be careful of pot holes even more now adays!

cam cover needs a new coat of paint, i know!

i was having some idle problems aswell (idle was really low, about 250rpm) didnt really do it that often but it was enough to piss me off.

i asked around abit and i was told to try cleaning out the TB and ICV so i did. it as help abit but it still does it every now and then.

before:

after:

also, i finally got round to fitting my fogs.

i couldnt be bothered to run all the wiring into the dash for the OEM fog switch so i just hooked it up to the side lights.

(no bonnet stay, ultra light weight y0!) :lol:

i broke my number plate in the process of fitting them so straight on to the vinyl cutter to make one up. :lol:
see how long i get away with it for.



well thats about it for now, should be fitting my front and rear carbon fibre lips this weekend and giving her a decent bath. Kadir style y0! :lol:

oh, and sort the wonky back box out.

comments welcome :D

#2447 wow big update & your hatch is looking good! and LOL at the cardboard tube holding the hood :lol:

Do you have any pics of the old clutch? I'm sick and pics of destroyed clutches amuse me :D

The idle on civics gets thrown off so easy... how did you go about cleaning out the IACV? Did you dis-assemble the part and clean the insides?
