Try ask the mechanic check the earth wire. Specially below the driver side. There is a connector near to the aircon below. Sometime the connector loose or water go in.

Have you install any 3rd party parts at your engine side?
Thanks for the suggestion, mate. I will definitely raise this up when I'm at the SC tomorrow. As for my car; no mods. Completely stock.

i own one...

30k...u probably dun have much choices especially if u wanna buy one fast... most are above 30k

unless ur willing to wait n slowly find one that suits u n ur budget.

there are those under ur budget but without B series VTECs..

as for versions.....doesnt really matter... of course the preferred one is the EG6... but finding an original EG6 is difficult. but converted ones are good too.....so in terms of versions... it really doesnt matter that much

maintenance is basically the same as every other car...regular servicing etc n the car will serve u well. however, it is an old car.. so there will be wear n tear issues. but once u get them solved.. shouldnt be a problem. spare parts availability is abundance... some parts can even get brand new if u know where to look.

theft list...yes unfortunately. though not as bad as Satria GTi....but its not just down to EG Hatches....alot of Honda's are getting stolen lately... as for security, do wat u need to do.. some people even remove their ECUs from the car every time they get out of the car. but basically just be mindful of where u park and take necessary security measures

there relly isnt much u can tell from that... otherwise, bring a mechanic to check the chassis for accidents, potong etc etc... u dont need a mechanic to know this type of specific car... just a good mechanic will do... it is after all like any other a car at the end day

mechanically u kinda have to drive it...alot of problems usually wont appear when ur checking it... but will appear after driving it for awhile.

as for the big vtec thingy.. make sure its the twin cam aka DOHC version... coz the price is quite cheap for a DOHC VTEC EG Hatch. but even if its not...its still fine especially for that price.

I see,hows the fuel consumption? I assume as long as i minimize pushing the rev until the vtec kick it would save fuel and given the weight is abit less as compared to the engine horsepower

I might have to pull back from buying now,as I dont have enuf space of carpark at my household area I might have to park outside which I am not comfortable with,

But this is a good response and I would definitely buy this car in the future maybe in 1 2 years time - this would buy time for me to do more research on the car

fuel consumption? depends on what engine and wat setup....

my B20B JB-KL constant 140kmh only took half tank. full tank is RM115 RON97.

but basically yeah... below VTEC especially below 3.5k rpm its a decent fuel saver.

please always assume that you WILL need to repair old cars be it wear and tear and what not.

rm26k car may not be just rm26k after you factor in repairs/maintenance.

I spoke to Honda CS earlier, they said no estimation date yet. As for my SA, she said next week, BUT not confirmed yet. Probably after Deepavali. Signed in september. But she did say, for CITY, it might take up to a month or 2.

Anyway, thanks for your info DM3. Really appreciate it.

more easy to just call honda hq to complain about this dealer about the delays than go to another dealer and go thru the whole process again.

Thai deluge reduces Honda car production in Malacca


PETALING JAYA: The flood crisis in Thailand has resulted in a vehicle production slowdown at Honda Malaysia’s assembly plant in Alor Gajah, Malacca since Monday.

The company said in a statement that Honda Automobile Thailand’s plant and its suppliers in the flooded Ayutthaya province provided a considerable number of parts for Malaysian CKD (completely knocked down) models, namely the Honda City, Civic, Accord and CR-V.

“The suspension of operations at the Honda plant in Thailand has an inevitable impact on Honda Malaysia’s production,” it said.

Honda Malaysia managing director and chief executive officer Yoichiro Ueno said there would be delays in vehicle deliveries as production at the Malacca plant slowed down due to the suspension of parts supply.

“The Honda Automobile Thailand plant remains flooded and it is unapproachable. This is making it difficult for us to estimate the time of recovery. However, we will assess the situation closely on a daily basis and hope for the best, though we foresee the recovery may take longer than we originally expected,” he said.

true even if you pick a car with vast amounts of parts like civic also will sometimes make your pocket hurt if the seller is evil.

i think the mechanic did a shoddy job just wanting to sell you the alu rad.
he should also check the pipes and any connectors to find out why metal pieces are being distributed to your rad.

NEVER EVER put smalm v b16a into eg n above...coz that engine is from ef civics...its much easier n better to put in big v.

I really hate seeing small v in egs n above...thats just some kedekut way...not forgetting parts for the small v getting tougher to find.

B16a im not sure..mebbe abt 8k. But the workshop i go to offers a b18c gsr (non type r) package for abt 9.5k

Most of my friend ask me don't change because since i'm driving city change to civic no feel like changing car. Is civic 1.8 maintanance and fuel consumption expensive? Any bad thing about 1.8Civic?
Thanks.

imho if your engine is running smooth now don't change it coz majority of the b16's especially the cheap ones will have had a tough time during the rice boy era 5-7 years back.

cost:
i just paid for my 2009 model insurance and roadtax.
cost me 2.2k (300 plus for roadtax rest of insurance).

performance:
stock 1.8 you will definitely feel you're driving a more powerful and stable car.
your city i know is capable of going 140-150km/h
civic can do that without breaking a sweat and without the wind noise and feels alot more stable.

fuel consumption:
where your city has good pickup and good fuel consumption for town driving and traffic jams.
civic won't be like that.
you won't get the 500km plus per tank you're used to getting from your honda city.
you'd still get upper 450km per tank which is quite good considering the extra horsepower you're getting.

parts:
i suggest you get oem parts since the car is warranty over.
the cost will be much more bearable, however it will cost you abit more than the city.

i think you can do this few things:

1. carbon clean your engine.
2. aftermarket air filter replacement / pod-type if u dun mind the noise.
3. performance exhaust change (extractor-mid pipe-muffer all must go).

that will help your machine breath better should be better response, but i dunno how much HP increase that would be coz it depends on the parts used, don't goto kedai cap ayam and put junk do some research and get the good stuff at a bargain.

if you're traffic outstation you'd get 550 or abit more from the civic, depends on how you "speed" brows.gif.

i can't really tell anymore since i've put in 18" rims all the calculations kaput liao laugh.gif

190km/h in city i've tried that before from johor to kl.
takes a long time to get 190km/h.
i've done 206km/h on civic even without notice it while driving from cyberjaya to klia. u don't need a long straight to go 180km/h with civic, u need for city brows.gif

Honda called it "Product update" biggrin.gif
to replace the power steering feed hose.

You can check the status of your car with Honda Malaysia. Tel. 03-7957 5885 or 1-800-88-2020
Update you mailing address with Honda Malaysia and they will send the original letter to you. Was told that the service center will need the original copy of the letter.

Thanks. One more question, I've read the maintenance price list in the official website and first service only cost less than Rm30. Is it true or there's additional charges behind it?

From what I know, the first service is free. Only need to pay for oil, etc. Then, if I recall correctly, Honda does not change the engine oil during the first service. Unless you insist....

1) Maintenance you can refer to Honda Malaysia website (www.honda.com.my)

2) FC for 1.8 is around 11-13KM/L for mixed driving.

3) Check all those pillars, and most importantly steering issues.

Not really... sometimes it depends on your luck. If you are lucky, you get a problem free car (or nearly smile.gif )

Net salary 3.8k a month should be quite comfortable for a 2008 fd1.

Service and maintenance cost will depend on where you do it.

I did mine last July for approx. RM5k for the major service+replacing all parts found faulty, both at 8gcc panel workshops.

I experienced it last week, but mine is 06.

Normally its around 9-10km/l.

have to monitor this time around and see what's the outcome.

Should be around 3k++ from what I heard last year when I wanna make a booking for 1.8S. smile.gif
So at the end I bought 1.8S-L that comes with Leather Seat and Cruise Control which I felt quite reasonable with additional 5k tongue.gif

This is from my experience of using syn oil in my previous ride. Was using the syn oil after the 1k service. When the car was around 4 years, I noticed that there is reduction in the oil level.

so u a lude loving guy eh, its a 2 door ride.. like that i suggest eg 2 doors like TS one, EG6.. original EG6 kinda expensive but worth it, if not mistaken its a racing spec like EG9 means tougher chasis..

two of my lil bros own EK3/4 @ EK9 convert to DC5/K20A engine..  drool.gif  and other 1  EG3 @ EG6 convert with b16a..

Flush actually every 60-80K is fine... And for better performance, you can use Honda ATF Z1 Ultra..

that price is consider cheap for an eg9.. nowaday the price range for original eg9 is around 25-27k depend on upgrades/condition.. spare some cash for extra service like do top overhaul.. change to quality radiator & hoses since honda is known for overheating problem..

well even if you satisfied with his offer and the car why not try to get it cheaper?
i mean there are many sellers out there and not many buyers with cash to buy a car 20k ++
he knows that.
so complain about everything u can eventhough u know it will be cheap to fix.
get the cheapest price.
then welcome to VTEC brotherhood brows.gif

lude 96' is using h22a bb6 with red engine head cover..?

cons..? hmm, myb u will hear mechanical mouse noise 'nyit nyet nyit' while cruising.. use DW40 spray to eleminate that mouse, if u can find it la.. LOL

yes, some integra DC2 part can be plug N play on eg.. engine & bay parts, absober, dashboard, ekzos, etc halfcut condition plus many many many aftermarket part.. DC5 engine also can fit if u got big budget.. tongue.gif BUT DC5/k20a'R is suitable on EK chasis for stability.. lagi shiok if put on ES.. tongue.gif

Avantech's EG VTEC Turbo is pushing about 630whp... and it can be driven around...

I afraid not so simple only...later acc shop don't know how to rectify but act as if they know, lagi teruk.
I read in 8gcc forum, maybe need to replace the whole gear panel, because maybe the bulb itself burned already.

So see anybody else here encounter such similar problems or not lo..

Hi,

Any owner of Civic FD1 facing problem with their VSA that lights up sometimes? Replaced new battery. Been to HM SC and was told that it is due to faulty Yaw Sensor. Cost around 2k to replace.... sad.gif

Anyone who has similar problem managed to resolve this?

helloes there, how does one join this club? after much debate, i decided to keep my old '93 Civic EG9 16BA MT, and try to restore/revive it back to optimum condition.

everything in there is original, so when i had to change the suspensions for the first time yesterday, the mechanics were stunned the car was still moving with so much broken parts. since i wasn't sure what needed to be replaced, i only had minimum work done eg: absorbers, suspension arms, p/s covers.... whatever there are tongue.gif

i'm a NOOB in car knowledge, so i'd appreciate if anyone would be able to recommend me to a mechanic/enthusiast car restorer for my old beat up Civic

many thanks in advance smile.gif

Yes, my main concern is the road noise, although i'm using PS3 tires (At least better than PP2), but still the road roar is quite loud, almost have to shout inside the car to chat when cruising at 120KM and above. The Radio volume is almost nothing at that speed tongue.gif (I have changed the head unit, that's y no sensitivity control)

So is sound proof all the floor and door panel help ? or i have to change to 16" rim ?
Some said after sound proof the floor and door, then come another problem -> wind noise

Install a car immobiliser in which the system needs to detect the access card before it can start. This also acts as a deterrent to car jacking, theft, etc.

Don't mean to throw salt to the wound. To be frank, if the potential buyer did not put down a deposit, then the seller has the right to sell to others. If the buyer has put down the deposit complete with a brief written agreement and copies of the car documents, then the seller cannot sell to others.
Anyway, there are still many around smile.gif

Don't mean to throw salt to the wound. To be frank, if the potential buyer did not put down a deposit, then the seller has the right to sell to others. If the buyer has put down the deposit complete with a brief written agreement and copies of the car documents, then the seller cannot sell to others.
Anyway, there are still many around smile.gif

just a head up for next time.
prepare a written documents for both parties to signs, indicating the amount seller agreed to pay and the amount buyer have paid for the downpayment. better also to indicate the car model, colour, reg number, chassis number, and engine number. all the necessary info can be left blank and fill up when inspecting the car and deciding the price and downpayment.

If possible bring a long a witness along to sign the agreement. If the seller's side has a witness as well, then it will be better smile.gif

Have a look at the Euro Civic then... I'm not on a computer so you will have to search yourself. The US and Asian version look a bit boring but at least not offensive, the European one... Futuristic, but I still haven't decided if I think it is ugly or not. Different for sure.

The facelift is a bit of an improvement, hm.

Lets see next year if i do make my personal loan. I prefer auto cuz i always go far and i hate traffic jam. The vtec gives it a + for long distance when the road is clear. For the meanwhile i already got the B16A with auto gearbox. Still waiting for the back disc brake. And waiting for my personal loan cuz i wanted the CRV block. brows.gif

Hi all,
I have read in other forums about wheel bearing and a lot of recommendation where to buy NTN Japan one but I didn't see anyone mention which workshop with presser and good workmanship to change the front wheel bearing. Understand from others the skill to press the front wheel bearing is crucial, therefore I hope expert here can share the good workshop.

FYI, my front bearing spoiled and sc in USJ changed 2 times for me but still having noise. So I want to try outside now. Thanks in advance

if u have a problem with the rear camber then without changing the camber of course ur rear tire will continue to makan la.

i guess its just a civic thing about the rear camber... actually alot of cars cant adjust rear camber if not mistaken....even my EG needs a rear camber kit

Normal one around RM400-RM500 depends on shop.
Slight better around RM650, Branded one like buddy club around RM900++

If you have very serious tayar makan sebelah, then better to install it.
If not, u have to invest alot in pusing tayar and change tires.

Note that faulty absorber also will causing tayar eat inside.

Haha... lowering will be done after the front bumper has been sprayed. This week i guess. Still waiting for my TIEN absorber and springs to come. Its been 4 days waiting for it from ebay @_@
I also dunno what design bumper is dat. the only thing i noe is, i go to the shop, see the acuan looks nice, buy, go home, assemble. Nghee.. Im waiting for the local halfcut shop to get the skyline GT35 rear bumper and then i assemble it to this car.

hi sifu here.. i recently made a booking for honda civic.. but the SA told me that i need to wait till around April and May for the car. But Honda insight is straight available for pick up if i choose to take it. Currently i am in dilemma on whether to choose between civic and insight. What do you all think? I do prefer Civic design more than honda insight.

I believe that you initially booked for Civic because you like its style and sporty-ness right? Whereas many people choose Insight due to its technology and low FC... so you basically can't compare these two... doesn't fall into the same category at all... If you want ready stock cars... there are so many choices in the market man.. not only Insight : sweat.gif

Thanks bro,
I tried google Civic type R but most of it are FD2, close to the recent Civic .

Tried looking onto the details you gave above, I believe what I saw is the FN2.
First time I saw it , I thought it was the CR-Z, but afterwards I saw this "FN2" model again (closer this time) it says Type R.

Thanks bro,
I tried google Civic type R but most of it are FD2, close to the recent Civic .

Tried looking onto the details you gave above, I believe what I saw is the FN2.
First time I saw it , I thought it was the CR-Z, but afterwards I saw this "FN2" model again (closer this time) it says Type R.

honda.com.my doesnt show this model. Where can I get the pricing?

FN2 is not by honda malaysia...or honda japan for that matter... the FN2 is specific to the europe market...some people call it the euro civic or the euro type r.

ur gonna have to find it via grey importers if u wanna buy it...

and as an FYI,

Besides, now my concern is that, i think civic 8th gen got almost 50% of the parts come in from thailand.. and due to the flooding issue..

is it safe to buy a civic 8th gen right now? cry.gif

and while the civic 9th gen available, can i still get a new civic 8th gen that time ? rclxub.gif

Actually, why don't you consider getting the newer model instead?
Any particular reason of wanting the 8th gen instead of the newer 9th gen?

from another blogger : http://www.financetwitter.com/2011/04/hond...-paste-job.html

I suggest Madman to include all the civic models on page 1, tongue.gif
and can include the civic euro too?

if u want i can intro you to my guy in honda shah alam.
i not so sure about discounts but service is AAA.
when decided want to buy it was day 1 for the FL.
i didn't pre-book i got my car within 1 month.
i got good discount plus he sms to be a bunch of plate numbers i like, choose any FOC brows.gif

dunno u can get such a deal or not.
but my family bought 3 cars from him oredi.
from SA now is branch manager.
he train all his staff service as good as him.

honda is not proton.
they won't sell you a car that is not 100%.
they write off alot of cars and parts because of the flood.

gen8 is still very handsome and will continue to be unless gen9 have a typeR.
if it is going to be normal only like gen7 then people will still buy gen8.
see gen6 (ek) still so sellable until now.

i also really hope that their ppls would never use those parts affected by flooding, but there is always some ppls would take the chance to gain some "pocket money" somehow sweat.gif

gen8 is definitely looks handsome for me thumbup.gif
if really its continue selling after gen 9th is out, hows the price should be affected, as well the 2nd hand price, up or down in ur opinion, hehe icon_question.gif

Hello!

I believe this is what I saw on the road,

http://www.fastmotoring.com/index.php/2010...n2-euro-type-r/
Picture was taken in KLIMS 2010.

anyone has dealer contact in Malaysia?
How much roughly is this?

FD2R type R is about RM199,999.00
So it should be cheaper right?

I also dunno what design bumper is dat. the only thing i noe is, i go to the shop, see the acuan looks nice, buy, go home, assemble. Nghee.. Im waiting for the local halfcut shop to get the skyline GT35 rear bumper and then i assemble it to this car.

you can check your PM for his number.
if u don't want to get conned into using those parts then stay away from 3rd party sellers with very cheap price.
if you buy from honda service center should be 100% original and not flood victim.
i think 8gen will maintain price quite nicely as i don't see the 9gen being a killer product.

FD2R is 200k made in japan.
FN2R is 200k made in uk.
actually FN2R should also be around that price bu is abit cheaper as it is recon but "cheaper" is relative as it is recon.
vision motorsports is one of the biggest importers of this model.

Hi all,
Is it possible for me to replace the black sticker at the door frame? Mine got damaged when i go to the accessories shop.

I ask them to change my door visor, when they take out the old visor, there are some double sided tape stick to the frame.

Then the worker use hot air blower to remove that double sided tape. But it makes the black sticker on the frame turn to peeled out. So i can see the white paint at the panel.

Anybody experience this before?

No wonder sales of the current Civic model are doing well. The upcoming Civic is really crap. No wonder Honda is already planning to launch the facelift model by end of this year.

Hi gurus,

I'm currently thinking of getting the 8th generation Civic (not too impressed by the 9th generation). So I went to the Glenmarie showroom today (USJ's branch was closed), but it was pretty much empty (don't even have show units available, except for one Insight), and most of the SA are still on leave, except for one Malay uncle. Friendly guy.

He told me that Honda will no longer sell the 8th gen because 1) due to the flooding issue in Thailand, and 2) 9th generation coming in around May/June, 2012.

Is this true, about 8th gen no longer available? Or have I misheard it? While I can understand the delay of new batch due to the flood, but surely Honda will not stop selling the 8th gen Civic right? At least until the 9th gen is on the market.

Anyone can recommend a good SA? Preferably from USJ, ShahAlam/Glenmarie or Puchong. Appreciate some pointers from the gurus here biggrin.gif

Was told that the 9th gen will be out somewhere mid of the year. While at the same time, the 8th gen stock is affected by the Thailand flood. If in luck, may be able to get the 8th gen if you make your booking now; before the 9th gen launch.

wat?? the LSD? much better for normal drives la bro... especially during rainy days and ur running over puddles...

with my old EF.. when i had LSD, when 1 wheel runs over puddles it didnt cause much of a concern....but when i sold that gearbox and used a non-LSD one... running over puddles my steering will be pulled to the side. if ur wondering why i sold the gearbox.. coz i was selling the car tongue.gif

over turn?? from gear ratios? dangerous if gear ratios too high??? huh??? u should go to ur friend(s), point at him/her/them and laugh kow kow laugh.gif

the only danger of high ratios (aka close ratios) is that ur engine will be revving high pretty quick. so if u over rev, engine can letup...but then if u over rev with stock ratios oso engine can letup la.

and another downside is fuel consumption la... i have a friend with B16A and ATS 3,4,5 close ratios... at 100km/h hes doing about 4.5k-5k rpm iirc. whereas normal is around 3k or 3.3k

anyway... LSD is a differential..not a gear ratio.... so it wont affect ur ratios that much...but if ur worried about daily drivability, then u should avoid full lock LSDs...best bang for buck LSD would be the Type R LSDs...full lock will be a pain especially if ur doing alot of u-turns.

Hi all, I would like to know what is the tyre for FD2 which give bang for bucks? I mean below RM350 what can i get for :

Considering factor (sort by the most important):
1 - High speed on dry & wet condition (<150kmh)
2 - Sound noise
3 - Longer life span
4 - Nice thread design tongue.gif

Is it possible to put in 225/45/17 or wider 17" into FD2? Any FD2 owner can give suggestion? Thank you in advance!

Honda already preparing to launch the facelift version of the 9th Gen Civic year end due to very poor reviews worldwide about it. So as usual Malaysia will become dumping ground for the pre-facelift 9th Gen to clear stock rejected by other countries. Typical!

Complex thread design = noisy
Longer life span = not so grippy
Grippy in wet/dry = shorter life span
Quiet = grip ain't too good

This is typical for budget tires of course you can get best of both worlds (at a compromise) with more expensive tires.

Resale should be good since its a Honda, Hot hatch and TypeR.

no don't do that.
although the oil in theory can last longer but u need to follow the service booklet to change and service other parts.

Get rid of the launch control n vtec controller n go for hondata...with the b20 ur gonna need it to retune..stock ecu not enuff to handle 2.0. Ur gonna have to redo ur ignition n fueling. Launch control n vtec controller are just unnecessary accesories.

N btw, hondata has launch control n vtec controller in it

here its 2.3k-2.5k siap pasang siap tune..u gotta check ur prices there...

aftermarket ecu sell it off... aftermarket ecu's usually have maps for specific engine setups... and japanese rarely use B20s so i doubt itll be a good choice with ur setup. same goes for "brand" re-chips.

i was on stock ECU + spoon chip and VAFC and still my engine kapow....now with the higher compression i still dont have proper tuning coz limited by VAFC which doesnt have ignition tuning.

take note that hondata requires OBD1 ECU...if ur halfcut is EG halfcut then no problem...

minimum u should get imho is e-manage along with the ignition harness, can try looking for used units, should be pretty cheap. this one can be used on OBD0,OBD1, OBD2 ECUs

hi all, anyone driving a Civic FD here? The 1.8S?

Recently a friend of mine has issues with his Civic. At first it all started with jerking when accelerating. As time goes by, the matter became worst. During stationary, sometimes when he hit the throttle, the car wont surge forward. It will stay still, then jerks and suddenly the car surged forward.

The SC already cleaned the throttle body 6 times and did a check on the ECU and no fault found. I suspect it has something to do with the gearbox and when my friend asked the SC guy to check the gearbox for him, the SC guy replied "Civic 2 tahun tak akan ada gearbox issue punya" doh.gif And my friend being not a very car guy, don't dare to offend that SC guy because he scared his car will be harmed during the checking/service period.

What do you guys think? Anyone facing the same issue(s) here?

The problem (from what I was told by my friend who was planning to get the 8th gen Civic) there is no stock. So, looks like have to wait for the launching of the new 2012 model.

from the looks of it your ride isn't timid sweat.gif

since everyone wanna play EK nowadays i went to mudah and saw these two babies with low mileage, WOW, but won't be able to get loan.

EK4 convert EK9 with sunroof and 50k mileage!

EK4 original 99spec not convert with only 30k mileage!

two good cars but at a serious price.
for the same price can buy Vios already.

i blame it on those idiots that say CVT unreliable and die fast.
the previous gen didn't have a very powerful engine but the CVT and tuning help to give it a feeling of lightness and good pickup with good fc.
current gen city is bigger and more powerful but feels heavy and not so eager to move like previous gen.

i hope the 9th gen civic won't be the same doh.gif

Is it from standstill the rev will move a bit before gear engage then jerk forward? and sometimes downshifting from 2nd to 1st will jerk(slow down then step throttle)?

If yes seems like a torque converter problem. Ask the SC to check and replace if faulty, it is a sign of torque converter dying. smile.gif

Yup. Standstill, slot into D then gradually increase throttle. Car wont move. Then all of sudden jerked then lurched to the front. I'm not sure about the second part but he pernah encounter engine stalled when he wants to accelerate.

I have the same suspicion too that its the torque converter has gone wonky. Just need to gather more feedback. Thank you for the reply. smile.gif

Ready stock I think not so possible as you have specific choice of colours as well, but anyway if the lucky SA receive such booking, I believe he will fight whatever he/she can in order to earn that commission LOL, one month selling 5 Civics is not an easy achievement for an SA smile.gif

just my 2 cents

If still under warranty, don't hesitate to bring to Honda SC until it's solved regardless of how many times you go (if you have time lol), you have the rights to claim the warranty.

the thing i hate MOST about EF/EG/DC engine bays is the stupid throttle cable that goes around the world before reaching the throttle cable. really dun understand wat the hell honda was thinking with that one....

EK at least they cleaned up... but the throttle cable can be hidden under the IM...like mine.
