Hey iam here again, couldnt find my old topic tho... what happened? I just did some trackday after few years. Finally with MeisterR and everything o modded on my suspension. And iam happy. It works.. the second session was on stiffest (rear +5 to softer) and it was good. Its more oversteery. I still think its better to have 8/5 springs than 8/6 btw. I would like to test it how that works. Maybe I will try to get different springs to back, little softer. So I will post the trackday videos here and I also done some roadtrip around Bohemia with my Civic. Its a big project, so it will take time to make the documentary, but i will post it here too, so you can see how my country looks like from an MB6 seat enjoy the videos (only 2 because I ran out of brakepads )

Had a bit of a s**tter on thursday night, short-story: driver thought it was a great idea to over take me on an island, I braked and moved over, clipped a curb and snapped a ball joint. Then waited 3.5hrs with police for recovery because I was blocking the road!! Recovery dumped my car in the street rather than the driveway so I had to work in the road Motorfactors round corner had no idea what I meant when I asked for a Ball joint press tool so had to improvise! Used a variety of G Clamps and sockets, and a copper-hide hammer and popped both bits out in an hour. Then I spent an hour looking for my snap ring pliers, bloody things. All done Even got chance to fit the Sport interior from the MB2 Much better!

Nice improv in getting the ball joint swapped!

hey, i just want to note that I bought BLOX and iam happy so far. Works as expected. If needed you can buy and replace the ball joint, which is good too.

It sounds like youve looked in all the right areas for the culprit mate. Without actually hearing it its hard to say for sure what the fault is but if you can get the parts such as track rod ends and stuff cheap enough id stsrt with those. Always best to start with the cheapest probable cause then work your eay through. Worst case scenario is the rack itself, although would expect the noise to be there when stationary too. Does it appear to be more to one side of the car? Also look for any signs of rubbing on the various parts.

Can't really shed any light on this other than mine has been doing this for a while now, and hasn't got any worse over probably nearly two years. Mine only really does it turning right and around 5mph.

New seals for rear doors!! The front are even worse, but either they are pretty expensive or where the price is good they are not available .... OLD !! NEW !!
