We currently have 27 vehicles on our compliance list and we are about to add 2 more, Both the Nissan Cube and the Honda Civic EP3.

What we need a Test Vehicle of both types for our compliance testing. The turn around would be 3 to 6 months, but it would be a free compliance. Car of course we have to be clean, no rust and as close to factory condition as possible. It would have to come to Melbourne firstly of course but we could send it off from there.

If you are interested email us at [email protected] or call on 03 9415 7150.

Regards,

Paul @ Carizma

The cube needs to be a 1.4 Ltr, Auto up to 12/2005

The Civic EP3 Type R needs to be up till 12/2003

quick question, would it be cube gen 2 or 3? not sure which engine/trans choices are on the possible raws list.

not interested in doing the 04 model EP3s? or did the have the facelift during 03 sometime? I'm keen on one of the later EP3s with the slightly updated front end. just can't remeber off the top of my head if that occurred in 03 or 04 model?

Hey Baron,

We will eventually, it would require a new emissions test, so down the track yes but in the short term we are gonna start with up to 12/2003

cool. so I am right that the facelift EP3 with the different lights/bumper/etc is 04 onwards? I am a long way from being an EP3 expert :P

I might still go for a 02/03. if I find and buy a suitable car I will let you know asap.

thanks Paul.

Not sure about the face lift, will find out but the reason were not doing 04 on wards atm is emission testing requirements changed and it got more expensive to test.

yeah fair enough, it makes sense. I think it is 04 when they had the facelight, new lights and front bar and the interior changed a little too with different recaro's etc.

That's correct, they are a goer now.

ta!

looks like I need to snatch one for a few more days.

was it heath that cleared it?

remember them saying they had to smash glass on one.

    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
    • Back pressure is not really a function of the exhaust itself, but the turbine/housing. So the question/point remains valid. I would be fitting an EMAP tapping point and seeing what is going on in the exhaust manifold before committing to throwing boost at it. Flow. No intercooler is actually rated for continuous operation at any power level wrt temperatures, as they are no actually capable of shifting the required amounts of heat on a continuous basis. They get hot during a pul, then dump some of that heat into the external air (and some back into the internal air) during off load moments/periods). You probaby do need a bigger core, given the power level you're already at is somewhat above the "rating" of the cooler. Put pressure tapping points either side of the core (which possibly you already have, if you have a boost source near the compressor outlet and tapping near the throttle for existing purposes) and report on delta P across the core.   I haven't done the mass flow calculation to see where you would be sitting on the compressor map at the ~450is rwkW level we're talking here, but if you look just at the PR you're running at, which is ~2.8-2.9, then you have a really really wide swath of the compressor map to run in, and so long as you were making between about 45-75 lb/min of flow, you should have really good comp efficiency, with the ideal being betweem 55 and 65. I can't see the need to shift drastically on the map to get better results.
    • Welcome 🙂 The ER34 wheels and slight lowering suit the R33 sedan really well. I'm firmly in the 'keep it stock, at least on the outside' camp.
    • Do this, and we'll have a resource right here.
    • "Hybrid" is a meaningless term. I could not tell you what the vendor of that turbo means by "hybrid".
