Hello 🙋‍♂️👍🏼

Honda Civic Type R ep3

It’s not broken yet

Haha I’ve never used it but I have received many comments mentioning JB weld

@@Smffab 🤣😂

Thanks, appreciate the comment. Thanks for watching.

It’s mainly to get rid of moisture, and bit of preheat helps my machine get going, it’s only 160amps

Thank you

These manifolds are quite expensive used, I saved about £200 doing this and made a video about how to do it. Appreciate your comment, and thanks for watching.

Totally agree, and thank you for watching and commenting.

Thanks a lot!

Hahahaha

@@Smffab 👍

Thank you

Yes, it is.

Thanks for your comment. There isn’t a mirror polish on these ports it’s mostly as cast, also it’s on a boosted application which is pushing air in and there are no running issues.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate the comments and thanks for watching. The belt sander is never going to be as good as something being machines but I checking my belt sander table it flat and I also check the part is flat with a square. The surface I get it actually really quite good, and once the gasket is on and everything tightened down to the correct torque, I don’t have any leaks and it’s running about 12-14 PSI boost pressure with no problems

Thanks, these particular manifolds cost £450 for a new replacement or £350 for used. I picked this one up for £150 and therefore saved myself about £200. Worth it to save an intake manifold like this.

Thanks, both very good skills to have. Thanks for watching.

Thanks. It wasn’t dropped or damaged like that. They can break when they are installed with a thermal gasket and not a OEM gasket. The thermal gasket is used to try reduce heat transfer from cylinder head to manifold and therefore have cooler intake temps, but the thermal gaskets have a lot more “give” in them as they are thicker than OEM. This means manifold flanges aren’t properly supported or if not all torqued up correctly can lead to flanges cracking and breaking. You see it on these manifold and more commonly the aftermarket intakes.

Thank you. Very kind. Thanks for watching.

Thanks!

It’s ok to weld repair a manifold it’s probably stronger than new now. Also this has been on my 400bhp turbo AWD civic for the last 6 months with 12 psi which is not a lot of pressure, and it could take a lot more.

Thanks. You’re probably right but this was my own manifold for my own car so it was definitely worth it for me.

I’ve never used that stuff as I can just tig weld it.

😂😂😂

Thanks. I just used 4043 on this which is intended for casting.

Thanks, it saved me about £200 minus my time, and welding gas.

I used 4043 filler rod for this. It has worked well. Thanks

@@Smffab Thank you!!

Thanks. It was very clean, Honda parts are good quality thankfully.

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you, really appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Have a good one 👍🏼

Hahaha no but I might be good at it…

Thanks. And thanks for watching and commenting.

Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching

Thanks for the visit

Glad you liked it! Thanks

I’ve never tried soldering with aluminium rods, there are some impressive products on the market that look as tho they work well but I have no experience with that’s just tig welding and mig welding. Anything can be repaired so it’s worth a try for sure.

Thank you, and thanks for watching

Thank you very much!

Haha fair point. Normally I wouldnt use gloves on a pillar drill for example, but also didn’t want sharp aluminium shavings all over my hands.

I think you are nuts.

Thanks 🤩
