I've seen 2 comments saying that there were actually only 250 TF's.  True or false?   If so were the numbers' customer requested?

Thanks Gaz! I used to be on the CRX forum many years ago and used to do project threads on there so I'm probably still living that life!

Tried to find out if there were many/any TFs going to the National Day tomorrow but sadly never got a reply from the DC :-( hoping to head to Thirlstane in Lauder instead although with RAV4 instead as will have to take dogs. Anyone else going there?

You are right about it not being instant.  It only triggers once operating temperature has been reached and you have had a drive of sustained rpm.  You might find it as a pending code with a reader, but if the light is off then happy days!!

Is it happening mostly under deceleration?

Part of my problem is likely unique to the TTE (dual tip) exhaust I had, but it might be similar to what you're getting: various really noticeable rattles and vibrations mostly decelerating from 2500-2000rpm.

It was eventually traced it to a combination of the exhaust heat shield being loose and a missing exhaust hangar mount, so the hangar was catching on the chassis.

Noticeable at that speed as that's when the exhaust is moving around the most, so it was causing the heat shield to rattle like mad and the hangar to catch the chassis and give the heavier vibrations.

Solutions were:
1) Some steel wool + metal straps around the exhaust heat shield to tighten it until it could be welded.
2) Kept adjusting the angle of the exhaust tip until I found one that minimised the chances of it catching, until the hangar could be replaced and attached properly.

extreme solution, but have you considered a nice fat new exhaust? TTE is aweome, but hard to find.... not sure what is the closest match.... Cobra?

After having to pay some import duties it's finally arrived.

Fitted in about 30 mins.

Shifting is mega crisp and positive,  very well made piece of kit.

Had a bit of an erratic idle, cleaned the IACV and now we have 850rpm! Also fitted a catch can and changed the breather setup to mirror Honda's original intentions. New oil change and filter and a fan switch to manually turn on the fans. Plus a new primary O2! Fitted a lexan rear window too!

Just need to find a MOT station in the South West that is 'friendly' as it's just over on CO and that's the only thing holding it back! Also need to set up the brake bias as I'm getting 90% front (which is scary!).



PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS WILL BE APPEARING IN THE FOR SALE SECTION SOON! DISCOUNTS FOR EARLY BIRDS THAT HAVE A FRIENDLY MOT MAN 😆
