i'll also just say, I like your attitude, seriously. You were prepared to have a go at it...ok, f*ked it up, but, acknowledged your mistake and have learnt something in the process. As long as no major damage caused, not a bad result at all. Although, I you're seriously concerned bits of ceramic fell in the cylinder and you haven't run the car yet, pull out the plug and use a vacuum hard up against the hole, vacuum out any bits of insulator in there.

thanks, i already vacummed it after i pulled it out, there was some on the sides

im almost sure i got most of it out, maybe a couple of little pieces might of fell in. Would it just burn out when the oil warms up? Wont cause the engine to seize up or anything or reduce performance?

it's ceramic, it won't burn. Nothing good will come of having it in the cylinder. But, any household vacuum cleaner should be strong enough to pull bits out if you put it hard up against the open spark plug hole.

i vacummed it after i took it off and ran it through the hole too. Hopefully it wont do much damage. RB25de neo is not worth much anyway, if anything happens ill just put a rb25det, ive been meaning to do it for a while just saving up some cash. If it does f**k up, can i still sell the bottom end? like which part of the motor will f**k up, the head?

Pics of rb20 coilpack arrangement.

Notice how i had to cut the edge of the coilpack 2 and 3 with a angle grinder so they can sit in flat? One bolt on each hole mate...had to cut 4/6 of the coilpacks

Okay and where does the loom an igniter plug in?

to the stock rb20 clips. So the igniter has 2 large clips plugging into it, one from the loom the other is a clip from the firewall, the loom also has a grounding cable and another cable clip with 3 wires running into it which clips in to another clip on the firewall

Does this mean your sparkplug sale is off?? was really interested in buying dropped and over tightened spark plugs!!!!

More seriously, use a vacuum cleaner, some tape, and a 300mm of that clear 10mm plastic hose. Tape hose to vacuum cleaner hose and push through the spark plug hole and work it around while vacuuming. Not a guarantee, but its better than 'fingers crossed'.

    • With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.
    • Scissor Jacks are an accident waiting to happen, the only time they should be used are in an roadside flat, even then a tyre and rim should be placed underneath 
    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
