Just want to say a big thank you to E.T.S uk as purchased the Generation 2 supercharger a few weeks ago and works like a charm could not believe the performance gain on my Honda civic 1.4i 16v

Not suprising, I've owned electric pencil sharpeners with probably more torque.

You'd be suprised what people will chuck on their cars in an effort for perceived power, kinda like the young bloke at work who does our onsite security who owns a sube RX. Its not a bad little car, runs alright when its not in the panel shop from him hitting things/other road users with but anyway the muppet shows me this X-Force muffler he's found near a speedhump near where he lives.

Finders keepers, doesnt seem damaged and all the bits on it are ok apart from where some bogan drove over a speed hump too fast and scratched it, leaving it behind and not noticing it... :worship:

So I figure I'll help him swap it out with the original on the Sube and leave it at that if he wants a chrome cock hanging off the back of his wagon for whatever reason. Goes buzzing off sounding like a happy flat-four chainsaw and comes back the next week.

"Aw man I can feel the difference!"

'Where? From your ears bleeding?"

"No, serious bro it just feels like its got more power."

You cant make people understand these things with rational logic so I gave up trying to make them.

Haha some1 asks if it will work on a kawasaki bike. They told them they havent tested it on bikes.

Looks like a bit of silicon hose with a pod filter and an actuator or blow of valve. Some1 should buy 1 and do some real testing then report them to ebay for false avertising.

Revs to 40000rpm wat a load of sh*t.

Haha wat a joke!

Looks like a pod filter, silicone hose and I'm guessing an electronic BOV.

..

SICKKKK BRO..... lol racsov500 ... The dude in your signature picture owns 3.. TRIPLE FILTERS BRO.. SIKK

I love the quasi credibility on there. Like the quasi-tuning theory, the quasi-dyno graph, it's all voodoo.. gotta love it. .. I also like the part where it says will not ship to canada blah blah and blah. I'm thinking to myself probably from out standing court cases.

Also people are buying it checkout his feedback.. this guy couldnt afford the stage 3 he had to go the stage 2.. only revs to 37,500rpm - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...item=8048768324

idiots.

I couldn't NOT do it. I reported this guy to ebay.. However in writing my letter I noticed this guy doesn't lie anywhere in the post. But he's still misleading people.

This reminds me of a mate from school, He bought a set of those sports pedals and told me he can feel a little bit more acceleration with them. I asked him how it would do this and this was his explaination...

"Because the surface of the pedal is higher you can push the accelerator pedal down further and faster. Because you can push it down that extra bit it opens the motor more.... meaning you can go faster...."

BTW, this is a 100% true story :teehee:

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
