lol they wouldn't be the first eBay company to have done that. Are you really splitting yours and selling it when you get back from your trip? I drove mine home from the garage yesterday, all clean, great weather, music blasting, and it reminded me how much I love it......just as long as I don't start smoking.2 points

yup - 2 holes. I looked into getting a rover/MG one when mine was goosed, but they just have the one hole.2 points

Lol yeah i would of but it had to go. Well i can do most of it, i can get ally sheets quite cheap and bent up for me for nothing. The real cost will be wheels, coilovers and the BGW! Ive already going to buy the bolt on wide arch kit as that will let me cut the rust off and for a bonus it becomes beastly2 points

I just have to share my joy with you guys. Yesterday I was browsing our local online trading website (something like ebay) and I couldn't believe my eyes. I found a Honda 08V31-S1E-600 KIT brand new unopened ! And the price was 49 pounds I bought it right away. The KIT comes with everything needed to wire the fogs: Harness, relays, brackets, bolts and etc.. Even brand new button. Also it has a nice booklet with very detailed fitting and using instructions. (If you want I can upload photos of the whole book) Here's some photos: There's only one bad part though. The kit doesn't include the fog surrounds. Nice thinking Honda... They have a different part number: 08V31-S1E-600-F. Now I have to look for two of those before I can fit the fogs. If you find fog surrounds somewhere please let me know. On ebay there is currently only one for sale. At least left and right are the same.1 point

Right this is one of the reasons why my aerodeck has been on the back burner. I decided enough was enough working for wewantanycar and thought it's about time I went back to what I do best, detailing. This is the build up of my van that carries absolutely everything I need to detail anywhere. Even in the middle of a field. Started off getting the van and inside it looked like this This was all stripped out and cleaned ready for me to insulate the van itself inside. I did this due to wanting to keep it cool in the summer, and warm in the winter. Once insulated the panel lining was reinstalled and I proceeded to make my split bulkhead. The bulk head is 10mm thick mdf and 7mm thick Perspex sheet. I did this so I can get a decent amount of light in the back through the windscreen and also keep privacy from nosy thieving scum. After that I decided to install my 250l water storage tank right behind it in the middle for nice even weight distribution. My next step was storage space. I decided to build shelving units around the wheel boxes all the way up to the top of the ply lining. Comprising of 3 higher shelves to the left and 4 shallower shelves on the right. Went and got some black fabric to fix to the roof to hide the insulation and make it a little cosier. The interior was then painted in stone grey. 4 coats of it. I didn't want white as it's too bright in the sun, plus it's a nightmare to keep clean. In terms of power supply, I didn't want a generator as I don't want all the noise, so I bought 2 leisure caravan batteries, a 3000w inverter and a split charge relay kit. This means I can plug the likes of my pressure washer, vacuum and polisher into the inverter and run them off the leisure batteries. Charging the batteries by starting the van and flicking a switch to split the charge to the van battery and also to charge the leisure batteries too. Finished laying the chequered flooring down giving me this as the finished result with all the gear in. Took me a good week and a half to do as I'm no joinery expert, but I enjoyed building it. All that's left to do now is get the signwriting applied and it's completed. Another benefit to the layout as it is means I can take all my cleaning gear out, pop two sleeping bags in the middle with a portable gas cooker and hey presto, camping/touring van. 😀 Hope you enjoyed looking through this. Any comments and criticism welcome1 point

Well there you go then, experience would change your mind about not liking them. A preference is understandable with experience. UK versions have 200bhp, JDM versions have 220bhp.1 point

Woohoo ! Great news on the fresh ticket chap ! Hesitation is unfortunately quite common .. Leads and new cap/rotor i think should be your first port of call .. Tappets, i doubt they'd cause hesitation, but absolutely worth doing .. If none of the above you could be looking at sensors .. O2, MAP ..1 point

Booked in for re-mapping next week, hopefully gain a couple of hp but more importantly sort out the big dip in power at crossover and improve economy Gonna hold off on the S300 for now, its overkill for my car as it stands...1 point

Looks nice. Another vote for losing the front and rear type R stickers, and I am not keen on the blue fog blanks.1 point

Mines like that too. Stock wheel has a 45 degree hole, integra wheel has a hole in the bottom. Just rotate the srs reel so it matches the hole (don't mind the top sign). Don't worry the reel can rotate more than the wheel. If I remember correctly it could do two and a half rotations both sides. I'm driving like that with no problems so far. The Intgra srs reel is a bit different to match the steering wheel. I was thinking of buying one but there is no need for that..1 point

Thanks for the comments chaps. Sorry I've not updated this in a while but been really busy since then. Unfortunately the car hasn't seen much work to it due to renovating the house, booked and paid for our wedding in October (eek) and also decided to start my detailing business so had to buy more goodies and a van. Have a few pictures of the vans buildup so will post that when I have time for you all to see. Business picked well up on the valeting side and I've done a couple details so far so it's looking promising. Will also put a few pics up of the cars I've done. Some of you who are on civic life may have already seen Hamza's Saab that I did a couple weeks ago.1 point

Same here, a bit expensive but definitely worth it in the long run. Get it first mapped by a pro and then maybe play around a little bit to figure out how it works? Then you could always set it back to the "proper" settings in case it gets too messed up!1 point
