My 1991 Civic Shuttle

Still at weston mate, should be picking it up wednesday

Nice one !!!!!!!

Well ned picked up the shuttle yesterday in all its working glory, unfortunately i couldn't get a power figure as its to low to fit on my dyno rollers!
Got 2 miles down the road and split a rad pipe so after a failed attempt from halfords the shuttle now wears a bit of fd3s in the engine bay lol!

Why did it split a rad pipe? it cracked the rad before. i think ned blocked the overflow, could that be causing a prob?

sumat aint right here.

No cus, everything is right.
the car has been overheating for a very long time (ever since I did the head swap) Timing can make a car overheat. This has put stress on the already old rad pipes. Because I had just got it back I had to try it while giving chris a lift back home so it was being cained. The pipe hadden't split, there was just a tiny pin hole. Old age and overstressed recently thats all.
The car runs very well now just a shame I couldn't get a bhp figure but it keeps with my GF's Twingo GT which is a hell of a lot lighter and over 90 odd bhp (not bad for a 1.4 auto).

OK.

Yea i looked at the insides of the broken rad pipe, was perished in quite a few places so it was only a matter of time.
Nice to hear its running well and chasing french shopping trolleys now, wonder if the autobox could handle a low comp turbo?

dual carb mini-me turbo?

hrm you'd need to loose the carbs, turbo would slay them in seconds.

its staying on carbs

lol there has been enough horse playing around already.

???

so whats the next plan of action or am you aving a break after all the fun and games lol

Just checking up on shuttle, hows it going?

running sweet at the moment.
its going back to Weston in 2 weeks time to finally get dyno'd, that way we will know just how much more bhp its getting from the new head.

how much these dyno runs? is there a discount if we was to organise a day of rollin road'in??

standard price is £40. donno about a group session, will have to wait for Darkness to answer that. me and Steve-o are both having them done a week on wednesday

hahaha thats should be a laff! what you recon its pushin ned?

lets see if you know your car!!! LOL

anything over 90bhp im happy. im saying 100ish

well me and Steve-O went to weston today for our dyno runs. Im a little too pissed off to talk about how my car did ATM. But lets just say "OMG my VTAK has fallen off!!!!11"

Steve-O's did really well.

Uploading pic's and vids shortly.

What????? no way whats happend??

Vtec, I has none

The buddyclub controller isn't sending any voltage to the solinoid to engage vtec basicly.

Only got a terrible 83.1bhp at the flywheel (feels like ive been raped)
so all the work and (in the words of cus) horsing around i'ts making less power than standard.

so lets take the BC out and rewire, replace solinoid?? any way of adding extra power to the BC or any way to confirm theres power going in to the solinoid?
