Lots of excitement this morning when the kit arrived from SunSpeed in the States. As you can imagine I was eager to unpack and inspect my purchase.
The first thing I set my eyes when opening the box was the manifold. It really is a beautifully made item as are all the parts included.
So here it is, take a look for yourself.

So I’ve started. The engine has been in my garage for over two months collecting dust. My DIY kit is on its way from the States so its time to start the ‘PREP’. There is quite a lot to do before the engine goes in, but its pretty straight forward stuff and is well worth doing ahead of time.
First off I thought I’d put some pictures up of the engine as it is before I’ve done any work on it. The engine in question is a 2004 Civic Type-R K20A2 (not K20A3) UK spec model. When I bought the engine I had a good look over it to make sure all the sensors etc were connected and nothing was broken. In the pictures below I’ve circled the sensor positions to provide a point of reference for the prospective purchaser.
