Must likely custom made

Cheers mate, yeah definitely improved however its been so wet recently ive not wanted to push it! Being the MB2 it hasnt got any abs so could be interesting

Yep and still not done with it lol

Good stuff! All those brake bits should make for nice stops

Mind died when it was off - hopped in one morning and no sign of starting. At least I was at home already.

Hi all, Hope you're all doing alright! Long time without an update, Life somewhat gets in the way sometimes haha. In the meantime i've bought a house with a garage which has been ideal for this! So finally got round to fitting the above, general parts list: Disk Rear trailing arms Rear Trailing arm poly bushings Honda Civic MB6 brake master cylinder Honda Civic MB6 brake servo New 40/40 brake prop valve (46210-S5A-912) Wezmoto Braided front and rear brake lines MG ZS 180 Front & Rear brake calipers MG ZS 180 Front & Rear brake discs Tegiwa brake stopper 15mm front wheel spacers (tyre kept rubbing the wheel arch on full lock, not good for the MOT man!!) I was proper impressed with the Wezmoto braided lines from ebay, asked them for Fronts 70cm, Rears 56cm and they were pretty much bang on, even came with 2 brackets on each line! Only issue i had was the welded nut for the bolt that goes between the RTA & LCA thread stripped, so i had to snap it off and am now using a nyloc in place. Very happy with how it all is now, next up will be a short shifter and then get round to fitting the rear ARB. Cheers, Dan

That's look gone dont it. They are weird tho. I've known them to fail whilst cars off. Pull up at pub. Turn off. Turn the key to get home... dead.

Hope you're all doing alright, 2 Months go pretty damn quickly these days! I did end up buying some degreaser but still havnt got round to doing anything yet.. Some progress elsewhere though - got the rear strut bar fitted and cut the carpet so it fits back in. Pretty pleased with how its turned out, also got some pipe lagging so I can put a bike in the car without scratching it up! Now, I was looking through the last MOT and noticed the rear trailing arms bushing were advisories and the rear drums are looking pretty crusty.. man maths suggests what else for it but do a rear disk conversion (obviously). So after looking for absolutely ages and getting radio silence from loads of breakers, I got lucky and the postie delivers this little load of parts.. (The rear ARB I had before but finally got round to derusting and priming it). MB6 master cylinder, MB6 front calipers, MC1 rear trailing arms, MC1 lower control arms MC1 rear calipers (260mm) I also got some black front seatbelts so should I ever fit some bucket seats I won't have cream belts and black seats! Still up to get is a non-ABS 40/40 brake prop valve. Looking at the parts fishe, my brake prop valve would work alright on a 260/260mm setup (an aerodeck uses this valve with this setup), but im not sure about how it would work with 280/260mm and dont fancy risking it! As my car didnt have ABS from the factory I cant use a MB6 valve unfortunately. I still need to replace all the bushes / derust and paint everything before it goes on the car and that'll take some time. Also in the works is a new 2" exhaust mid section with new centre box. The exhaust is absolutely doing my head in and making me even more deaf! I'm hoping the smaller diameter pipe and a better box will quieten it abit. Cheers, Dan

Hmm my favourite mod is probably my intercooler setup. Not a fan of seeing the pipes sticking out of the fog lights.

Crack out the compressor today and undersealed the back end. Just got the floor to go now.

Minor updates. It's coming together. So little time to spend on it. Managed to find a leather Interior. It's in great nic except dirty. So cleaned it all up and restored the leather. Loving it. Really feels nice inside now. The door cards are mint no bagging at all. Unfortunately a few little bits needed to make fit properly. Need some rear latches and the rear seatbelts from prefacelift. On the hunt for them.

The colour i put on with rattle cans but I used a 2 pack lacquer with spray gun and compressor. In future I will do all painting with spray gun. So easy and the finish is great. Quite pleased with result. Not perfect but much better than was. Once had time to harden fully, Sure can flat and polish

Made a start tarting the bay up today. Not doing the bulkhead. So busy back there and paints not bad tbh. So masked out everything and prepped and primed.
