I did a bit of work to the dash as well over the last couple of weeks, its now a 3 peice dash.

Then I fitted my 52mm Gauges (was going to go for overhead mounting but Lyle (PhotoguyUSA) beat me to it).

The pod for the tacho/speedo is still to come (another thing to get done...aaarrrgh)

You may notice some new switches in place, and still loads of wires everywhere - slowly but surely..........

Progress Report:

Engine Running - overfuelling, so either its a sensor up the spout or it needs a bit of mapping (shouldnt need mapping so working through sensors first), fitted Lmabda sensor yesterday so that might sort the fuelling issue, unable to run again due to bad weather and lack of gauges to keep an eye on things.

Side/Dip/Main lights working

Hazards working.

Gauges, all placed now, had 4 out of 5 working, just waiting on some more solder butts before cranking that lots up again.

Majority of the last couple of weeks has been spent doing the wiring, making sure all connections are good, putting all new wires in convoluted sleeving where necessary, adding switches and warning lights, rotary selector switches, multiple connectors.

I also had a major fuel leak, 5 out of 6 threads in the fuel line leaked when I first pressure tested the line, so all that lot had to come off and get loctited.

I balls'd up a pipe so had to re-order one from Silicon Hoses, very helpful guy there, and for those of you with a VTEC engine and want to run a return pipe instead of blanking the heater matrix pipes they make a pipe specifically for that, that they normally produce for the aerial atom, 16-19mm 180degree, its tight as hell to get on and I would have made it 17-20 as that what the pipe on the engine measure but at £10 for the pipe I wasnt about to argue...

Diffuser and arches close to being finished.

Car booked in for a bit of paintwork and some decals - watch this space....

Still got an absolute F-load to get done if I am to take to the IMM, its not going if it's not 100%.

More pictures to come, unfortunately wiring isnt the most inspiring thing to photograph, once the engine is running sweet I'll post a clip on youtube.


Ah ha - not my tigging unfortunately - my friend Barrie did it for me, cheers Bazza!!!

Just for you I'll post some of the wiring:
