Where is the IM serial ?

[EK4R]

where bouts is it located ppl? lol im new to all this K series stuff

the one that reads PBC*** PBB *** etc

also see if you can spot anything gone wrong with this engine here

[lukits01]

you would need to take off the plastic manifold cover off
its on one of the runners
and thats a PRC manifold me thinks

[EK4R]

thx lukits.

will have a look.

how can you tell the difference from just looking at it?

Also, on the right side of the timing belt there are 2 bolts sticking up, i know they should be a hose running to it, what is it?

[tinkerbell]

that is power steering pump on the LHS

[Elwood]

And power steering belt?

And i can spot something wrong with it immediately..

..Theres a black band running over the whole thing, and somewrong graphittied on it :P

[EK4R]

from my understanding

PRC = JDM DC5R
PRB = RSX-S
RBC = CL7
RRB = FG2
RRC = FD2
RSP = FN2

PRC and PRB looks similar, the runners curl inside the manifold chamber which and has that flat surface to fit ITR engine bay not sure what the differences are.

RBC/RRB/RRC looks similar with minor differences in the throttle body opening and I think the RRC manifold has slightly fatter runners.

RSP is different again it has long runners like PRC/PRB that curls inside the manifold chamber but the shape is different, theres 2 separate chamber connected by a small opening

[wuism]

PRC has 1mm wider runners than the PRB or something like that.

Hence volume is bigger in PRC.
