I think it should be to wear trousers instead of shorts myself

Damn I wish I could buy these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/15-4x114-3-Deep-Dish-Alloy-Wheels-BLACK-Euro-Retro-Style-Suit-Honda-Toyota-/251744921030?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET&hash=item3a9d2aa5c6

Or to wear laderhosen all year round lol

Who needs stopping power, sh*t brakes adds fun...

Yeah the sump bolts are well known for working themselves loose!

Speaking of brakes i finally found the time to do the rears yesterday, grooved discs and ferodo pads same as front. The discs came off with a single hit of the mallet, quite a different scenario than with the fronts! Spent most of the time cleaning and sanding parts but everything is working super smooth now... almost like new . Also replaced the faulty right rear abs sensor, took some time with the rusty bolts but in the end was a doddle to do. The unstable weather here has dropped below zero for a change so non-locking brakes are definitely a plus... especially yesterday when bedding in the new pads on icy roads! Did an oilchange as well, poured in some Castrol Magnatec and replaced the filter with a Hamp from Tegiwa. Installed a new minimod in the form of a Password: JDM magnetic oil drain plug. Well it's probably not genuine (china ebay!!!) but atleast it's magnetic. For now! The engine has been trickling oil since i've had her, never bothered me too much since it's a very small amount over time but decided to tighten up the oil pan bolts and was surprised how many of them were pretty loose... hope that helps a bit. I've got a 18 day holiday now so plenty of time to work on the deck! Lots of little stuff planned... and a couple of bigger things on the shopping list. I'll keep you posted.

They obviously don't on Grant's car

Great..Thanks a lot Big Boss Man

Finally got the brakes done with Josh today, nice new drilled and grooved discs and greenstuff pads, should stop nicely now Matt

Love extra hooning!! So some goodies for the girl, what better time to et things than your birthday Jap boss kit. And a new man bag for keeping my ever increasing detailing goodies in.

Thanks folks. I'm happy to get silly little things like those sorted, and fingers crossed that'll be the end of maintenance for a little while. It's due its MOT next month so I'm hoping for no surprises. One other little thing that has always bugged me was that the V5 designated the car as a VTI. I made some enquiries with Swansea and obtained a letter from Honda UK that stated that my car should be a VTI-S. The letter was accepted and I came home today to find my new V5 showing the car officially changed to a VTI-S Only took 15 years to correct lol

little update!! only a small one, but i should be moving into my unit by the 10th of january at the latest!!! which means work and stripping her down will commence!!

New type of friction brake, use the underside of the car
