I feel old with you buying all this stuff for your car Stu. Seems ages ago since I last bought tuning stuff for a car.
All I do now is stick diesel in a lease car and do family stuff. :D

That's what happens when you have a family. They drain all of the fun away.

Popped down to Tgm today.. Will update later , however had a little look at the plug cover, as it's been changed over to the Mugen one now ... Not that you can see much , but it is there honestly

Probably the most expensive and irrelevant mod I have bought for the car. Oh well !

Spoon one for sale in the classifieds ->
 
Right.

I'm on the hunt for a sump and need one soon , Tom is ringing Mugen euro later to see if anything can be done. I've abandoned the clutch fitting for today as I would rather the sump was fitted when the sub frame is off to make it more cost effective.

I had a look at the car today as it has been there for a couple of weeks.

The plug cover is on , so are the modulo fronts.

There is a little cap that goes over the top of them.

The rears , well there's a story about them.

When I dropped it off to get them changed , the koni's require a sleeve which is removed from the oem struts.

Oem struts below. And the sleeve is next to number two.

For whatever reason Tom had said its best to get two new sleeves , as my oem ones needed some persuasion to get off when the koni ones went on.

They don't sell the sleeves seperatley. Luckily a friend who works at honda salvaged some from their scrap bin (off an fn2)

So I test fitted them on my standard shocks

I even bought some used fn2 shocks front and rear too. This was before my friend managed to get some.

So..... As It turns out I don't need the sleeves , they don't fit over the modulo anyway ! The modulo doesn't require the sleeves as they are the same width as the thread

I'm pleased to also report that I most certainly won't have any scrubbing with this set up. The geo will be done after the clutch has gone on , may look at some rigid collars too. I'm thinking about 1.8deg on the rear.

How can TGM still get away with keeping hold of customers cars for weeks on end? Surely this is just poor logistical management?

I had two bookings there but just kept it there as I didn't need to use it. They've given me Penelope to use.
