i was thinking of getting one of these, what u guys think? my unlce just got one for his dc2R i dunno if it was that that made his engine temp real low? it just just about cold maybe it was the spoon thermostat.. not sure anyways it seems to be good? any comments? this just reduces the temperature of the air reaching the engine as there is less heat transfer between the engine and the intake manifold...

I don't like doing this but.... it do a quick search for Hondata...

This has been discussed before...

There are a few guys (3) that I know of that have these but only Craig (Danthuyer) has it installed. Apparrently there are some very minor modifications that have to be made to the heatshield for it to fit properly. but have a look and see what you cna find :) :D

I have one for sale, still in the package. Pm me if you want to buy it, i cant be bothered puting it on the car.

i think that pretty much sums up the "performance" gains you will get...

exactly right

you dont get power gains as such. but the intake manifold remains cooler than a car without the hondata. if you go to the hondata site and have a read its all there.

I noticed at the CES dyno day that i could hold onto the minfold pipes for a second on my car after a run. On a car without the shield you could barely touch the pipes.

The figures are there on the site. If you want one then go get it ;) just becareful when installing

Big bump here...

I for the life of me can't find anything on what needs to be done with modifying the heatshield to be ready to install it into my sportivo.

For those in the know, or who have installed it, can someone tell me about what needs to be modified to get it to fit?

Thanks in advance.

It's a right royal pain in the A55 and something i was gonna do but to pull the entire intake off the engine and drop belts etc to get to bolts on ridiculous angles to put a gasket in wasn't worth the effort.

But if you want to pay your mechanic to do it he'll love you :clap::toast:

Funny you say that, one of my mates works for Toyota, but I don't think he'd want to do it after seeing what you wrote.

What belts have to come off?

Edit: Can't spell for sh!t.

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.
