Bumper back on. Glad I got the grill on and that yellow thing got stopped in it's tracks!





Cheers,
Hymee.

Not a Datsun in sight. That is Hymette's Honda Civic, with the steel wheel spare on the front, waiting for a new set of slippers.

Nice! Just about to release MK3 including the full intermediate pipe so no-one can fault it!

If it keeps the same exhaust note I will get it. I am going turbo soon and worried only cause I dont want my exhaust tone to change. Everyone I talk says it sounds like an Indy car. That's from one Viper owner to a Suzuki sidekick owner at a gas station. Tunnels make me splurge.

Will your intermediate pipe with a resonator solve my cat replacement problems ?

Heres an ongoing problem that i have had and i am heading towards my 4th cat failure .

2 have been stock Mazda cats and 2 aftermarket ones .WTF

Causes of cat meltdowns .

I have already had 4 cat failures in 40K mi. This will be my next cat.

I will be buying a resonated midpipe and having this installed. I have been in contact with them and they assure me that these have been installed in rotary applications and can withstand the heat of a rotary exhaust.

WTF?? The intermediate pipe doesn't have a resonator in it. Have a look at what there is stock from the first joint after the cat, back. A "Cat Back"...

Anyways, I guess this should be moved to an exhaust thread.

Cheers,
Hymee.

Update: Pics of current install...







Notes:
  • First pics of New automatic Tensioner
  • Relocated coil pack.
  • Stock throttle body for now, shown in approx location prior to fabricating adaptor plate.
  • A/C Tensioner - belt running under idler. Might put it back over the top. To be decided before we machine the ribs off the idler.
  • Hopefully start doing the boost pipes today, running today / tomorrow

Sorry to all the sCANalyser Pro Tuner beta testers for swing my efforts to this. But I do need a boosted car to test Pro Tuner on myself

Enjoy the pics!

Cheers,
Hymee.

Thanks guys. And for all the hard work in packaging it so well and making it look so nice - then the engine cover goes over it and you would never know!!
