about $120.. its already r134 gas.. the anoying part is with the troubles i had when i did my ea. it was gased 3 times before it was right.. this one should be straight forward as i didnt need to modify anything when fitting the ef aircon pump and the aircon was working.. |

well after taking it for a drive its so much smoother now
and taking a look at the old balancer there was so much dirt/grease built up inside it it was throwing the engine out of balance or something as around 3000rpm and up the car would vibrate..and considering the ed balancer had a slight wobble. so its now like driving a new car lol..

Yep Troyman, you have done a great job.
This ED has great balance. It is not too low, or loud, and the mods carried out to it give it a very clean look, but the car still has presence. BenJ
