Hi i have a 98 ej9 1.4 illusion and i currently have a nice b18c4 sitting at my friends unit nearly ready to be fitted! Just need to get some mounts sorted. There is going to be a b16b head going on it with the b18 cams and im gonna run the s9b gearbox cos its got a limited slip diff in which should be good :) Can't wait!!

use the S9B diff in a S4C gearbox, the box out of a MB6 hass way to long ratio's

you upgraded the brakes/ARB/suspension?

Well I'm on the A19 a few miles away from the Designer Outlet.

Not too many Modified EK's in York, to my knowledge just myself in the EK9 any my mate with a EK4 VTiS, plenty of standard EK's floating about including a totally shagged one just up my street!
