Made it up to Dubshed. Had a great time there and a good many interesting chats and finally put a face to the car as it were of several members on here.
The EF was very popular, seems now they are so rare there are plenty people looking but very few to be found for sale. I realise it was a good idea to hold on to it. 14 years its been with me now.
Between the love shown for it at Dushed and the fun I've had driving it recently I've got some more love back for it again. The B20 is great, I can put it in 5th at 25mph with no issues but it can also scream up to 8400. Really is two engines in one. Its a blast on the coast road and I don't even need to engage the crossover when on that road to make crazy progress. But when you do rev it out its quite intoxicating approaching redline.
Its actually not 100% mapped yet, so I must sort this, was hoping to trailer it to AP Performance but need to be sure he is the right choice, 70% of my driving is low to mid range throttle and RPM on the twisties, so this area must be mapped perfect. But not sure how much work is put into this area, it would really need to be followed up with a road tune afterwards but I have heard he does not do this. Also considering flying Romain Levesque or Dave Rowe over when the RB is ready for a remap and doing both in one go.

Thanks, thought it was something different, not seen it done before, but fits well with the colour scheme in the bay.Love that colour / finish scheme on the rocker that's class.
