So then Mrs Not boss Dave's Diary, when can we form a riot style crowd to see TrinityD?

Should have turned the MB6 lights on to,might do tonight lol

Hubert's MB6 got my vote! Cracking car!

lmao they saw me coming bud! Still, kept its original wee plastic case and mounting stand that it came with so can probs sell it in future for more (to some other mug I see coming!! lmao)

Couple of pictures from the first attempt. The "pokey pokey" tool. Use it to release the clips holding the wires in the plug! Then move them where they need to be!

Check everything over. Throttle cable n all that jazz. Failing that vac leak? tps? Iacv? With thermostat being located kinda under throttle body. Have a good look make sure you haven't disturbed anything by mistake.

That's a place I will check thanks its such a pain there is nothing worse than finding a water leak.

The rocker cover is on it's way!

Hard decision but have voted

Couple of vids of decat before and after! Before: After:

Ok guys what another top round up for the month lets start voting

EDIT

I want to take out the lights and without wishing to be un-PC, blacken them, the problem is that every bolt on the car is so b****red I am surprised she's still holding together as she is, so for me its a quick cheap solution to a problem that never existed and I have just got done toothpasting my headlights and they have come up so clean and shiny its a shame to cover them, of course I ordered my crap this morning before I set to work on getting her cleaner than when I got her, normally I spend the whole day and much wax and creamy liquid detailing the living crap out of a car, If you could see my old Mazda you'd know what I am on about, I do love a bit of anal cleaning. Too much chocolate and I have a spot, I have named him Cedric.

I love eBay specials

Evening......... Day 3 Ordered new dizzy, should be here next week so I will set about ballsing that up for your delectation, today, well today plans changed slightly, with the on off rain and the wind blowing my skirt up I decided to stay warm by washing and cleaning the original matts that came with the car, the drivers one says 'Civic' on it just in case I forget what car I am driving, well chuffed with the way they came up, purchased some fly eye for the front and rear for £20 from a local seller 50cm x 100cm x2 should be enough I reckon, I already bought and fitted smoked side repeaters/indicators and the orange bulbs are on there way, gave her a good hoover too and finally got down the window seals to get at that nasty greenness that I find so annoying. the fly eye I will fit and picture provided the damned weather stays out of my way! little easy jobs for now, due to getting the new dizzy I am going to stick with the current castor wheels I have, need a rub down and spray though. Funny but on the way back from 'Arrads' I had a little buzz with an A3 and an Alfa, lots of fun that at a screaming 40mph, you can really hear the V-Tec eh! so that was nice, probably shouldn't push her to hard due to current disability but she faired very well. still, plenty more to do........ A share bag of peanut M&Ms today.

Yob forgot whether it was on your door step not whether they'd deliver!?!

thought i did but no i think its further up i thought it was where the bonnet open cable came in but i think its further up its a pain its going o honda next friday for the cambelt but i dont want them to notice the leak ( i dont mean the veg ) they might try and solve it and charge me a morgage.

And clutch may also be on way out if its been towing heavy loads a lot. Have a look at our buyers guide mate, that gives you everything you need to know. If you hover over the "Home" button, a drop down menu will appear. Just click on our buyers guide there

As long as its going to fit and you like it thats all that matters mate. So if it does not last long you can change it and hopefully a pucker one will pop up for the correct price in the meantime...

You're welcome!

cheers for that Mr Brown and Kryzs, will just order 5dr civic ones. thanks again

And look how shes come on now compared to when you first joined....

yes there is, we either hear the car or hear your heavy breathing

Great news chap! Will most definitely be copying if it works!

The mats for the hatch and the deck are the same so you can order the 5 door ones from the site you originally mentioned, im not sure what the deck ones are supposed to be for but its not our car...

Take three then ACTION!!!!

That's the best thing about civic5 mate. You get so many ideas from others cars. I have picked up ideas from so many cars here so you don't have to be sorry about that . They are easy to do mate. Do the door pillars also they look good like that. Love the plans you have got. I was doing the same when my company wasn't giving me much work so instead of wasting time I would do something every day. That's why mine changed quickly but now due to the crap weather I can't do much.

Yeah I have a lot of them too! Never say no to a redundant tool, never know when it could come in handy!

Fair enough! Most tools I have to hand are over 20 years old, part of the reason I broke so many trying to get the two screws out where the arm rest is

Mr Brown got his from here: http://www.autostyle.co.uk/catalog/index.php Could be worth a look to compare?

Hmmmm strange one! I looked up the 5dr Civic and got this which look different! http://www.carmats4u.com/Honda-Civic-5dr-1996-2001/cid,1083970,index.html Hatch and Deck mats will be the same, I've never heard of a Civic Aerodeck from 2001 onwards

To get the indicator stalk to work I had to move the wires around in the connector, they release easily though! Will show you in picture form once I've sussed it!

I am.

A strobe light is a strobe light imo the factor to consider is the quality of the product eg. how long it lasts for but saying that i bought mine on ebay for 15quid n its still going 3yrs later

Facebook fun!

They say w4nking makes you go blind Bit of an update: I had a random thought about the wiper stalk and thought the best thing would be to get one from a Civic, so I found an EF being broken on eBay and it arrived yesterday, connection on the back looks identical to mine! Much like the indicator stalk does with the DC2 vs mine so I'm confident that I will be able to get it working without having to butcher the wiring!

Should be fine with some perspex dude! http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/topic/1289-replacement-lens-for-broken-oem-fog-lamps/

Ok, I had a hard on before. I've spunked in my pants now. Looks stunning mate, really does. What an awesome EG

This one! Although I cheated a little Krzys found it the other day! http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/topic/1289-replacement-lens-for-broken-oem-fog-lamps/

Got your PM man, I'm messaged you back!

They don't tend to be made of good quality mate and won't last too long. You get what you pay for with anything

Grant "EPICNESS" is the aim. but i still have a long way to go on the proformance as i will track the dodo out of it when it's not posing lol

Excellent news so we will get planning with you then, the real boss And yes I am sucking up to the establishment....

Thanks guys hopefully jave some boost in there soon

wait for it, Front 16x8.5j et25 2.5"lip Rear 16x9j et20 3"lip 3 piece fully polished the centre piece will get sprayed when it get to the uk neo chrome bolt and neo chrome neo Gorilla Locking Lugs nuts.

Well the idea is that the air/fuel mix is detonated at just the right time to create the most efficient use of compression and the mix. If its way out then some problems can occur. Suppose the biggest being Detonation. As the fuel could be ignited whn the cylinder is becoming smaller the explosion will cause a huge shock to the piston, rod, bearings etc. To check. Bridge the diagnostics connector to stop the ecu tinkering with it. Then use a timing light. There's a 4 marks on crank pulley. Tdc and 14,16,18 degrees before tdc. 16 is optimal. I wouldn't be concern about it even if it is out. ecu can compensate. And it's not like we're boosted up or anything

Pictures of yesterdays jobs! So here's how the M started the day! Smashed fog lense Had to replace with a whole new fog as I wasn't able to open up the lamp to replace the lense! Next the bumper came off to address the headlight washers, one of them was loose so wanted to find out why......no clip holding it in place! On either side.......ugh! So popped the pipes off, jubilee clips on and it'll do the job for now, much better but not perfect, if it becomes a problem I'll just glue them to the bumper! Oh and while the bumper was off I thought I'd fit something I'd picked up a while back..... Much much better! I did take two grills with me to my mates and we talked about them, one being satin black but badly done, paint is chipping off revealing and unprepared chrome garnish underneath, the other a meshed grill, again badly but with the chrome part painted PB, again, badly prepped! So I'm going to buy myself a can or two of Pirates, paint the satin grill after sanding it all back and prepping it properly! Also have a second rear chrome strip which I'll paint too as it doesn't mean having to take anything off the car until they're both ready to be swapped! Lacquer too after recent threads!

Very nice mate! glad its on,,, looks amazing!!! 8-)

Really feel for you matey. I know it's hard but keep positive and remember that everything is fixable!
