Usually got sound if the belts are stretched.No, not mine, this one is a B18C... customer's one. Still unfinished as yet.Currently my car still under weight reduction programme.. DIY, and done bit by bit.. so slowly lah. Using a wire mesh attachment on a drill helps make it a wee bit faster in removing those bits left, although it does remove a bit of metal as well.. rust spots abound, as expected from a 14 year old car. So busy settling those ATM. :PSo far reached the 3.5kg mark, and that's just the boot area alone.. the undercarriage.. well.. that one is a bit of a problem, and still KIV'ed. In terms of noise, yeah.. there's quite a bit more sound after the removal of the soundproofing.. but of note is the fact that the SGDM EG SR4 models come without the soundproofing in the boot area and the centre console/gearshifter area.. just had the opportunity to see one without the interior.Just wondering if anyone did a before and after dyno to see how much drivetrain loss we are reducing if using these.Chris, I think the price currently reasonable alreadylah, since it does come in a set of 3s, and they're machined quite well. The timing marks are present too, and it looks like it was notched at the factory. Anyway.. I don't think the timing mark is really actual TDC due to the fact that the crank keyways aren't really a tight fit (we are using 'used' engines after all). That's why cams are 'recommended to be' degreed in by most cam manufacturer I know of.Yeah... I've also gotten the 'crank walk' warning already.. but it seems that a couple of guys here running it aren't facing any problem and they've been using it for some time too... I do think a requirement for these parts are that you have the rotating assembly balanced to prevent vibrations though, which is done for those couple of guys that used it.And if you think these are expensive.. check out FluidDamper.. nearly fell of my chair hearing the quote on that one.. hahaha. Supposedly provides better damping than even the OEM ones.</blockquote>
