New goodies installed

1. Autometer SportComp Memory 5" Tacho with Shift Light
2. Autometer SportComp Oil Pressure Gauge
3. Greddy Turbo Timer
4. Sparco Drilled Pedals
5. Filter changed to BMC DIA cold air intake.
6. Remus Dual tip Titanium Exhaust (temp install from the Civic, New Endcan also pending for this car )

Way to go !! The car sounds good, at idle it is "almost" like a stock car, at high revs it screams like it's tail is on fire !! You sure got a Frankenstien in the making - I also saw some "contraption" in Phil's office which I am told will eventually sit under the hood of this car

Cheers

Nice build, engine bay looks very neat.Looks like a very professional job.
2 questions - Which fuel are you using and which engine oil ?

BANDHAV · 15th July 2011, 16:19

You have been spotted.

m4ugr8 · 15th July 2011, 17:29

Yes thats my car !! YOu have a very sharp eye.

@ Chetanhanda : I am using Speed Premium petrol in this, Since its a stock engine only nothing special required. Engine Oil going in is Fully synthetic.

Fantastic build; spent full half an hour reading thru in my office; brillant

I just spotted your car heading towarsd amity uni i reckon. inside sector 125. it's pretty quiet at low revs and i love that. no one would ever suspect what lurks under the hood.

Congrats.. thats a nice project sucessfully implemented. But, on a different note, add the magic of Autophysce here!

I think there is enough magic happening already

Or are you suggesting the car should go for a cosmetic makeover ?

The car IMHO should look as stock as it does right now !!

Manan kindly take a call - maybe you want to add a 40kg 3 foot high spoiler to keep the car from flying !!

Cheers

Spot on! Am suggesting a cosmetic makeover.. not those bulky 40 Kg soiler types, but still.. If I were in his place, I'd gone to him. Rest its personal choice

The Car would get a cosmetic makeover at speedsport only. Phil has bought some stuff for my car which will be installed very soon. COsmetic mods will be on the minimum on this car, I already have a loud car in the form of the civic.

Ok so now we are already talking cosmetic enhancements here !! Is Phil back ? Both his numbers are not reachable

So what are you adding to the car now ?? Curious

Cheers

m4ugr8 · 26th July 2011, 02:00

The Car is back at speedsport for the Clutch change Finally !! Few more stuff also being added. Shall post pictures once the car is back. All aspirational stuff nothing to add more power yet

Sn1p3r · 26th July 2011, 09:19

All that this thread now is missing is a thrilling youtube video

Lights, Sound .n. Action

Cheers!

m4ugr8 · 28th July 2011, 02:36

The Video will come soon, once I have the car back with the new clutch I shall post a properly shot video.

@ Ricky_63 : Cosmetic makeover, have a look. Will have only small changes and a brand new spray of paint of-course. Also shall be smokking out the headlamps like I see on your car
