Quick one, did you find the studs for the adaptor plate are too long? Test fit mine as need another gasket (only got one didn't realise I needed one for adaptor plate to mani and one for TB to adaptor plate) and reckon I'm gonna need to use some washers to nip it up.

Good write up mate, came in very useful to me today fitting my RRC to EP3. Pretty much identical other than having to chop a bit off the RRC. cheers!!

jreedy27 has one on ctro, he mentioned it on the for sale thread by goku4ever Possibly the gm you bought??

cheers ian, though doubt ill be getting it fitted tonight now! as for price wadkins, it was high enough to warrant 'other' ad being pulled, taking into account the current market value of them new and also the immaculate condition of it. fair to say i was happy to offer it and ian was...

Dave Johnson, parts manager at Steels Honda, Hereford, direct line - 01432267154, mention me and the dc5 forum, he'll look after you!

my insurance is cheaper at the mo than my ctr was, and thats with all mods declared, a much better car in my opinion than the facelift ctr i had, i owned the ctr for 6 months, had the teg for over a year now (which is VERY unusual for me!) and still cant see myself selling her. have a look...
