Nice upgrade then See why i love my fd?

Shame to see the old girl go but I think it was the right thing to do! Feel free to stick around with the Mazda dude!

Well the old girl went up for sale last month and sold next day. I probably could have sold it a few times over lol. It's replacement is something alot less exciting; a 2006 Mazda 3 Sport saloon lol Just putting up a post to say that this is the end of my MB6 adventure. Thanks to everyone on here for their advice and feedback. It's been emotional! I put my DC2 airbox up in the classifieds if anyone is interested http://civic5.com/forum/classifieds/item/119-integra-dc2-airbox-and-cone-filter/

I don't get it? Lol

Thanks guys! The B18 is the best engine I've ever driven, well I haven't driven a lot but compared to a 1275cc Mini, Mazda Eunos 1.6 and Honda Civic Shuttle 1.6 SOHC VTEC, the B18 keeps going!!!

Maybe you get a tube of toothpaste with every purchase

all timed up!! ready for the last few bits to be done before getting all back together and waiting for my new hoses to turn up also bought myself some new nuts!!!

well a little bit more done on the car today. head is back on with a genuine head gasket to go along with the genuine stem seals. I also used my ARP headbolts all torqued up ready to get the cams in tomorrow and then get it all timed up!!

Dont be too humble alex not everyone is even willing to try n fix an engine so for you to be taking it apart fixing it and putting it back together is a gr8 achievement fair play sir

started to stone down the bottom end ready for the head to go on today i'm hoping!! and here she is all apart and dry in my garage!!

lol Your MB6 looked amazing at the meet mate, and was great to meet you. Regarding the keep/sell dialema I'd probably keep her if it was me. She's in really great condition, and if you feel the suspensions a tad to hard for everyday running, you can always opt to soften the damping a wee bit. If you think the mb6 is too hard for cruising, you'll be seriously pissed off with the FN2 mate! Although it handles superb, the set up is really overly stiff, and sometimes it's more of a chore to drive it than enjoyable. All depends on what the roads are like where you are. I love the FN2, and even though I've contemplated selling it a few times, there's nothing out there I'd want to replace it with. They are really nice cars, look fresh even though the oldest ones are getting on for 8 years old now, the interior is like nothing else ever, and they're fast enough even in standard trim. But when I jump in the deck, which is lowered on MeisterR's, it just feels nice not to tense up every time you see a bump in the road! I have the suspension set so its a lot stiffer than standard, but its still soft enough to be enjoyable just cruising around. With the FN, unless you change the suspension, you'll be stuck with the hard ride. Difficult one to decide mate! PS: Oh, and if you get a puncture........................................................lmao you've seen the results at the meet! at least with the MB6 you'll be on your way quickly with no hassles!! The FN2 especially if its on big bloody wheels like mine, is a pain! I've had to buy an EP3 wheel as a spare since the meet, but it doenst fit in the spare wheel well. so takes up boot space.
