  2. Yes, I've noticed that too! Seems there's a real interest in them now. Bout time too! I've been invited to a classic show with DD up at Bo'ness by guys that volunteer at the steam railway. Met them through my mate who also volunteers there. The station has a classic car show every year along with an open day for visitors to the place. Has huge workshops, a proper big museum etc. I went up with my mate and helped out for the day in the workshop, then we got tasked with cleaning....Thomas the tank engine! Lol 😂

  3. yes already tried them thanks Dave. They are very good and helpful. Item 6 is available from them/ Honda UK but that is all. you can get the same parts in a top mount kit, from various aftermarket manufacturers In the US you can get full strut assemblies e.g. from KYB (these are also the brand of shocks I have bought) which would make life easy, no spring compressors required, but not available over here it seems. Pity. So looks like I'll be disassembling the strut as planned using a compressor, hope the set I have got is up to the job. ? not looking forward to that part. would be interested to know what other people have used parts and tool wise. coilovers of course another option but dont want to go down the adjustable ride/height route, wanted to keep it stock. and would be more expensive. looks like H&R for example do a nice set but v pricey !

  6. My D16W4 aerodeck has developed a few issues recently, considerable loss of power at higher rpm all of a sudden which has only gotten worse, and stalling when the brakes are applied hard at low speeds as well as just driving it gently and then rolling to a stop the idle drops hard and almost cuts out or it just cuys out, it overheated yesterday morning and cut out in slow traffic after about 10 minutes at 60 on the dual carriageway, limped it back home once it had cooled down and didnt seem to overheat after but I havent driven it since except just to try and diagnose whether the stalling at low speeds and braking is a vacuum leak on the brake booster, booster vac line or master cylinder even but the booster seems to be working alright and the vac line from the intake still has vacuum so im guessing its not the line or the check valve inside. Would be great to determine if these issue are fixable without too much headache (hopefully not headgasket causing the overheating). Any help at all is appreciated, I really would love to keep the car on the road and usable as its only on 128k miles and if its too much of a headache i'll have to shelf it and use it for a more serious project (maybe a k swap)

  7. Diagram and parts numbers all here dude https://www.parts-honda.uk/honda-cars/CIVIC-AERODECK/1999/VTI/STEERING-BRAKE-SUSPENSION/FRONT-SHOCK-ABSORBER/17S1E01/B__2800/4/8427 Rubber mounts are probably worth doing Don't forget mgzs / rover compatibility for suspension if you don't have any joy using honda part numbers
