Yikes! I made sure to secure all the OEM clips of the cover. After that, I gave it the ol' "well that ain't goin anywhere."

This particular one might be difficult to obtain, took me years of searching to find it.
You might want to consider finding the Modellista engine cover, which is available in Red and Blue.

Then I noticed a lot of track days really liking the Fortune Autos and Gears and Gasoline run them on all their cars. $1900 gets you into the game with tophats AND you can pick your own spring rates.

I compared it to the original cover and it looks like the P/N is the same as seen here:





As mentioned earlier, I was able to get it from a former 86 owner who also collected rare parts. These covers were only on the 14R/14R60 models in Japan. Best of luck on your search!

Probably asking about your car's extended warranty.

He's lucky I did a leaf check before heading out, otherwise I'd never have gotten the message

Isn't this CSG exhaust fairly new...? Damn yo, hopefully something just decided to come loose and you didn't blow out the baffling or something crazy

Not CSG related, it was coming from the front. I thought it might be a loose bolt since I had the entire front end of the exhaust apart 2 weeks ago, but found this.

Just got it on stands after letting it cool down..Front pipe weld/metal failed. At least it's after the cat so it doesn't stink.

Clearly OEM quality.
