  1. Check with Honda mate, get them to list part numbers for different civic m's for the sensors. As far as I'm aware, all models have the same ones, the only difference could be the vti/vtis
  2. Or the bonding around the windscreen mate. It does tend to fail after so many years. Hard to find where water gets in, but if you remove all the plastic trim around the screen, and the scuttle panel, you should be able to run sealent discreetly around the whole screen. That should hopefully cure it.
  3. The shine on that before the show is bloody amazing!!! Really shows off the pb! Top work on the door trims mate, always thought they look so much better in black. The standard vti trim looks horrible on them eh!
  4. Yes, a full service would be your best bet mate, and would also maybe highlight any other wee probz that might need doing. Good wee base for a project though! What plans you got for her?
  5. Cup holder looks good mate! Agree these should have been standard fitment to all civic m's, as the storage/cupholder situation is shocking! The cup holders weren't even offered as an option/ accessories on our civics!
  6. Lol @tom! Rocker cover looks superb mate, and loving the white/purple theme.
  7. You should keep her! Coming along nicely mate
  8. Always loved this deck! Looking really sweet mate! Been thinking about adjusting the springs on DD, to see what differences it will make. Maybe better putting her in for a proper frsu though, as I know most about the bump/rebounds lol
  9. Looking sweet Phil! Seeing all these cool decks made me get DD out the garage today for the trip to work! Got any pics with the new lights on?
  10. Those wheels look amazing mate! Need to report back what she's like on the road once the poly bushes are fitted she's looking sweeeeeet!
  11. Wow! Nice find mate, and top job on the cleaning! Looks sweet now! No plans for modding????........yeah right! Hahaha! Lol
  12. Nice one guys! We love a competition here, and also saving money!
  13. I've looked into your account Ali and have tweaked a couple of settings mate, hopefully you should get emails about followed topics now. Thanks for the heads up Krzys
  14. If its changing when using the heater, it sounds like you will have to carry out further bleeding of the coolant system mate. Hows the temp sitting when you leave it idling for around 10 - 15 mins? And once on the road, where's the temp sitting? Does it go high, or do you notice a significant drop in temp? Either will point to an air lock in the coolant system. These engines can sometimes be a pig to bleed, I know Ruby's was.
  15. Thats sounding like it may be either fuel related or a dodgy sensor somewhere.
  16. Yeah, replacing the tube should hopefully correct the problem. It's not a common fault, although I have heard of maybe one or two over the years having this.
  17. lol steady on! Doubt we'll be at all the shows (Unless we move house so we're nearer!!) but we'll get to as many as we can!!
  18. Shut it ya wee toad! lmao We'll be there next year...............unless it comes when we're in Corfu! If it does, no competition, I'll be in the sun!! lol
  19. I reckon it'll go up to around £1200 minimum mate. The damage looks not too bad, although I would want to check that B pillar for damage. The rear quarter will be a tricky panel to replace too, so bargain on a fair whack from a bodyshop to sort it out. Mileage is a tad high too, and that last service isn't stamped so can take it thats probably not been done (anyone can just put a scribble signature in the service book without even going near the car!) If it were to go for it's current bid, then yeah, well worth buying even to break it. I had the Civic TypeS GT ) 2011 model, same engine as that and it was a really good car. Nippy enough but also good on fuel. Check civinfo.com for details on what to look out for on them though, there are a list of known faults, some that should have been dealt with via a Honda recall, but some owners didnt bother. And oi! Who wants that shape civic??? lol cheeky bugger, I'm on my 2nd one! (TypeR though!) lol
  20. Just wondering if anyone got pics from the Civic5 stand at japfest2? If so, pop them in the photos section guys, would love to see the cars!
  21. What a stunning car, attention to detail is immense mate! Deffo one of the sweetest EG's I've seen, some really tasty mods on there. And those lights look evil!!! lol Cracking build thread this!

    Car Prices

    I spotted a VTi (so B16) del sol, electric transtop etc with low miles (think it was around 50-50K) which was on autotrader for £2000. It claimed it was a "UK" car, but I always thought the VTi models were imports only? Also, it had a small bit of rust around the rear arch on the drivers side, and a small bit on the pass side where the wheel arch meets the sill (basically bottom of rear quarter panel) so that would probably affected the price a tad. Was tempted at that price though!! Cracking wee cars!
  23. Here's the very car! It was sold on but to another member http://civic5.com/forum/topic/9506-freakwagon-is-alive/?hl=freakwagon
  24. We did have a turbo'd D series a wee while back mate, was an Aerodeck. It was also an automatic! From the videos, it seemed pretty quick! Not sure if the member is still here as he sold it on I think, although he did seems to have quite a few problems with it. The ebay kits I've heard of so far have given nothing but trouble, so guess it's the same with anything from ebay, it's trial and error.
