I have yet to get to this but as soon as its done I will show you how not to do it....

yeah same thing happened in December when both my cars were entered. I entered one and Mr B entered the other

Was serviced just before I bought it in January. But its goin for turbo in next month or so

As long as they're not heavy otherwise the car probably won't move.

hopefully have sorted a garage but not untill middle of March so will crack on with bits before then at my gramps garage

or a better final drive... that sorts 2nd gear out nicely

Put the engine in an eg with a short box. That sorts out the laggy 2nd gear!

Lets hope so mate 12 years is not sooo bad i guess but 15-20 would be a much better hope for you and all of us as we need you fighting fit to abuse P.S how many of them have you got now mate..my brother-in-law is upto three or four now i think.. And i'm liking what i see....

The new 1.5 VTEC Turbo will be going in my M when the new Civic goes into production

lol today i had a chance to whip off the rear wheel and pressed a rim to the end of the studs, the offset was like et5 lol so i think a 5mm spacer might be needed and i drilled a plate with a 60 degree center drill and it didnt look quite right to me, i need to get a tapered wheel nut and make sure is seats well, soo sry boys wheels will have to wait till next week as im moving into my first house and my first ever owned garage

True True They will come out the woodwork after voting ends probably! Now that would be a travesty!

It'll be cool... just make sure you sort it. If it needs a thermostat or a fan switch or whatever you find is broken. Do it ASAP. It'll be a cheap fix. But I can tell you Honda don't like overheating. You'll take out the head gasket! and then it's gonna get expensive.

It's still not right!?!? This was probably my biggest gripe with the galaxy, was great access if you could open the door fully, if you couldn't, well, you'd might as well force a grape through your japsi!

hopefully bidding on a big roll cab for even more tools!

Your just bitter because the vehicle you have with a sliding door broke!

How very dare you Sir! We people of the West Midlands would never dream of smashing all your windows and taking a crap on your seats just to steal a device you have slaved to install! Besides, i doubt we'd even know what it was, been using lanterns on sticks for head lights till recently. Outraged!

Ok voting will end Thursday 6pm

ye but i'd rather buy a house with a garage

ye i think its about £14 a week so not too bad

I've asked about it anyway mate to make sure!

My cruel side says Dame (more insulting) but my sensible head also agrees it should be Lady

Sir SarahFR ????? Mate men and women ARE different and therefore are named accordingly. Surely Either Lady SarahFR Esq Or Dame SarahFR Esq

Good luck marrow!

Yeah steal away! It has to look OEM or it'll look sh1t tell him!

It's not that two cars belonging to one member can't be entered but a member submitting a car for COTM can only submit one car from the way I read it. I guess it could be made clearer though as you can read into it both ways, I'll ask the boss man!

I'm stealing your picture for his GoogleDrive ok? I'll upload it so he can take a look. Moving the switches would be perfect, an almost OEM look may be possible if done neatly.. He has OCD so it should be

Or the heated rear window.....Honda's are never pushed! Yeah that doesn't sound a bad idea, probably just need to re-route the cables or extend them to reach and modify where the blanks are if the switches aren't the same size!

You could up the hazards and the heated window switch next to the ac button when it's moved down

Fill your expansion tank, pure water will be fine for the short term, see how you get on and check the level once a day say while you're using the car and top up as needed, the fan will only switch on when water passing the switch reaches a certain temperature, but if the hot water isn't getting to it (because the thermostat is closed and not letting it flow through) then the fan simply won't come on at all!

Yes, if the speed drops low enough 2nd is never going to cut it, a quick blip and slot into 1st wins the day.

oooooooooo, the minimalist look for the dash is Great! This would be a fairly cheap but labour intensive job I think, can we get a 'how to' on this?

John Banks Honda on here, can't find anywhere else that do them who don't just get them from Honda anyway!

I'm not jealous at all. *Edit: I say that and then think about who paid for my suspension last year.

Frickin leaks! A few weeks ago I washed the car and hoovered my carpets and discovered the hoover was just lifting water from the passenger side. It was soaking. I unscrewed some of the trim and peeled the roof lining just enough to see lots of condensation under the metal roof I've checked the channel from the sunroof and it looks ok. I've always suspected the windscreen had been replaced and so I'm going to try and reseal the top of the windscreen and see if that fixes it. Whilst I was checking for leaks I also found a small puddle in the boot but can't figure out where it's coming from. Can anyone tell me what use this vent is in the left side of the boot and if it could possibly let in water? I'd also ordered a new pollen filter. As it's a bit of a pain to replace I wasn't sure when it was last done so for the sake of a few quid I figured I'd just replace it. The nice delivery man chucked the box over my back fence on a rainy day so I came home to find a nice soaked box and contents The filter itself was dry thankfully and fitted using the dummies guide on here. Easy Finally, and most importantly I got sorted with a DC2 air box thanks to 10000rpm on here, for a far better price than eBay I ordered a replacement OEM filter, washed and cleaned the air box and dressed it with Meguias engine dressing. Can't wait to get it on now. It was too wet and windy last night

Ha Ha you poor poor guys.. My mrs not only came along for the ride today when i went to pick up a couple of bumpers that i only told her the evening before i was buying she also said anything else you want or need while were here and reached for her purse LOL.. And the answer is: I said no thanks dear just that for now. LOL infact she is the reason i bought a replacement wing for our MB6 as she saw a Baikal Green M being broken on C5 F/B group and asked if we wanted to buy anything for the car..

My prediction was correct by the looks! Hopefully a decent hatch will win next month

@ UnicyclingTom, Thanks @ vtec2011, I agree mate, black and red theme go well with each other. I'm not fully decided on the red tape yet, sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't. I bought it off eBay, it says it's for motorcycles but I've seen people having them on their car. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120801165327 @ Mr Brown, I would totally recommend wind deflectors, makes the car look so much better. I don't think a small red H logo with black wheels on silver car looks too bad lol, EP3 Type-R have red H as standard. I think the red tape may be overdone but sometimes I like it and don't . I originally wanted a black civic with Rota Auto X wheels but there's still alot to do on the car yet and I'll probably sometime have it wrapped in satin black and buy the wheels too.

yes finally a garage! the previous bloke has done a shed like extension on the side, its a bit diy bodge, so im going to knock it down and make it bigger! so i will have lots of space to put wheels! lol

There are a lot of very nice cars this month good luck to all. GET VOTING PEEPS....

Exactly mr one wheel

I think I would prefer the kick! The key element is that nudge and note change to let you and those around what's coming!

Oh the amount of times my wife has had to eat cheapie meals haha

Right well the suns out, bit windy but cant resist giving the clear plastidip a go Done boot lid and wing, bit left in the can do give you a idea how much you need. Heres the pics, the effect shows up better on wing because of how the light catches it i suppose, but pretty pleased. Definately will do the whole car, only downside a few bits of stuff blew onto it (even a bug!). Should have really cleaned the whole car first!

it all just adds weight to the re spray argument.

Here you go:

Nice one, Krzys, i'll save that on my computer.
