Desire isn't driven by the heart, the mind or the wallet. Desire comes from another place. It's created by the smell of burnt fuel under full throttle and the look a car gives you when you're washing it alone at night...

its no longer running the NC loom, everything is converted to EF including dash. from what i can work out is for the EA-ED you need to cut and lengthen the loom to hide it all

Has to be done :(

The only way to fix it would be to make it longer and hide it behind the rad or change to an ED throttle body so the cable can pull from behind. I reckon the cable would still run over the turbo and melt though.

Plus compared to the outside of this shitbox the engine bay could have 40 foot of cable and still look impressive. :P

The engine bay is like a semi attractive girl and the body is her fat friend. :grin:

think whats his saying is the head that has the half moon piece and your rocker cover is flat over that section
when you could of bought a later model rocker cover that would of suited the head
love the shine though ;)
