No problem at all mate, you're welcome. The list was put together by our members so should be pretty accurate. Do you know who it was you spoke to at Dynodaze? Was it Rich Ellis? If so, Rich does know his stuff when it comes to Civic M's as he had one of the first B20 Turbo mb6's in the forum. I'm almost certain that it's mostly the EK stuff that doesn't fit or Civic M's though. Integra is based on the EG Civic, and most of the Intergra stuff fits ours (depends on year of Integra though)
-
Just looked at that thread and it appears the DC2 integra does have same LCA's (or at least they fit our civics)

Not really sure to be honest mate. I know you can fit MGZS front springs/dampers but the fork needs modding to get the height right, @noodels did this mod to his. So thinking that the MGZS LCA's may fit (but might require modding?) but not sure on any actual gains using them over OEM Honda ones. Would the DC2 LCA's be the same fit I wonder? Plenty A/M stuff available for them so that might be worth a look into. Have a look through the following thread as it may shed some light on it for you.

I like! Always thought the 1 series was a cracking looking car from the start, and can look really sweet with a few tasteful mods. Bet the torque's nice! The mpg itself will more than justify it as a daily mate. It's the one thing I miss about the MINI, it was absolutely amazing on fuel. Got about 360 to 370 from a full tank, but the tank was tiny. Think the most it ever took to fill it was £41 (and yes I moaned as it normally took an average £36 between fill ups with what was left in the tank lol ) DD is same engine size, less power than the mini and loves a drink! Not sure what she does now to a full tank but yes around £60 to fill her and don't think she even breaks the 300 mile mark! Also with a kid on board, you're wise to go for something safer as a daily too. Although the decks were safe fot there era, compared to moderns now they feel lethal! The TypeS and TypeR I had had front/side /rear airbags, and were really safe in a smash, same with Carly Cooper. I kinda miss that safe feeling, deffo feel more vunerable driving the deck, and terrified driving the mx5. Know that if we have a smash in that, it aint going to be pretty. DD will be replaced as the daily again at some point, but probably a long way down the line from now. Bet that Beemer is fun in the snow!! lol What's the plans for this one?

I decided I'm not gonna be buying any more consoles. TBH, I only bought the xbox one because Paul (bladerider) had 3 xbox360's fail on him so wouldn't buy another and went for the xbox1. Meant I had to get one too otherwise couldn't play him. I was happy with my 360 (which I sold to my mate over 4 years ago and is still going strong!), loved Forza 3 and 4, and gta. I feel when they progress, they loose some of the best features of the games. F5, F6 and F7 don't have the Customizable public lobbies and Turn 10 won't bring them back even though everyone has asked for them. F6 was pretty poor imo, graphics were only slightly better than F4, but game play wasn't as good as F4. F7 so far seems to be really decent, graphics are nice and easy enough to make money in single player mode. Got some nice design packs in the making at the moment and also a couple of tunes I'm working on. But yeah, XboxOne is my last console, no buying any more lol
-
I had the PS up to PS2 (loved my old ps2) then switched to xbox360 then now xbox 1. Need to set up two race nights then, one for xbox one for ps
-
Excellent mate! I just got F7 so have been playing offline, building up $$$$'s and creating tunes/decal packs etc. Will do the same as I di9d before and see if I can get tunes done, then post them up here for members to copy onto their cars (F6/F7 doen away with being able to gift tunes and decal packs, so least i can put the tunes here to avoid members having to use their credits in the game )
-
Just wondering if any of you still play Forza on Xbox1 and what version you play? Know Ali (burbleboy) is on F7 so going to be racing with him soon lol. Anybody else on F7 or F6? Might be time to start the old Civic5 race nights again seeing as we're all stuck indoors just now. They were awesome fun in the past, anyone up for it? Some photos from the last one we did back in 2012!

Bloody snow! Can hardly see Mindy!! Why can't it just be spring time now!!
-
Need to update your profile bit lol. Intermittent starting could be the ignitor in the dizzy. My mb6 suffered this, although it was usually once she was up to temp.
-
Hi Jim. Is this a 1.5 sport, or a 1.4 or 1.6? If 1.4, it doesn't have vtec. When the starting issue arises, is it when the engine is stone cold, or after it's up to normal operating temp? It's hard to determine from the symptoms you've listed, but more than likely it's electrical (and possibly still something to do with the dizzy)
-
Look up performancetek honda jazz..........guy up here who owns performancetek (Gerry Brady who did Dave and Sarah's K26 conversion on the MB2) did the first uk k20 swap in a Jazz......then supercharged the bugger!!! lol Amazing car! He's amazing when it comes to Hondas, knows em inside out. Think he's into VW's and MINIs now though.
-
Must hunt out that old laptop I have, almost positive it's on XP or Vista! lol Had busted usb ports though but might be worth setting up for in the garage for if I need to check any how to guides on here while I'm working on DD.
-
Be gone little troublesome Jazz, be gone! Oh, you've gone....bye bye Jazz lol To be fair, I had a Jazz (think it was 2nd Gen) as a courtesy car when Lexy was in getting her paint all sorted. Really liked it, but it was brand new so probably different ball game. Only thing was, it was an Auto, and I had the cruise control on (like I normally did in the Civic) and it came to a hill. Sitting there daydreaming as we cruised along and all of a sudden it hit the kickdown and took off like a truck had hit it's arse! Got such a bloody fright! lmao Going uphill,it had dropped below what I'd set the cruise control at, so unlike Lexy, didn't just accelerate but dropped a gear and gave it beans!! lol Still a nice wee car though if I'm honest. If I could just have the jdm import one, the sport with the 1.5 supercharged engine, bright yellow paint, body kit etc.....they look sweet! Said to Gayle after I handed back the Jazz I wouldn't mind getting one.......................she said "you'll be sitting in that yourself then grandad!" lmao
-
Love your Civic, and that K10 Micra is amazing. Proper first gen too with the high back seats, can remember these in the showroom when they were brand new. That one you had looks awesome mate, what happened to it?
-
Haha, looking forward to the fail sheet!
-
As the title says, what's the best car you've owned and what was the worst! Include a photo if you have any, if not pinch one from the interweb of same car/model etc. If you're stuck between two that you consider your best, then you can have two! lol My best car: Ruby my Honda Civic MB6 Vti and DD, my Civic Aerodeck My worst......Vauxhall Astra mk2 2 door! Was an absolute pig of a car.....1.3 auto, gearbox packed in after 1 month, car was rotten from front to back (looked lovely, but rust had been hidden underneath the car so inner wings, floor, sills etc were basically just fibreglass and filler!
-
Good point, can't remember if it was DD or Ruby that had that very issue with the wire where the sensor plugs in, that wee look was cut/exposed. Had forgot about that! Or was it the Mini? Who knows, know one of them had abs light on and that was part of the problem!
-
I think I'd crash without mine! lmao Just too used to it I guess lol
-
ABS light should go out automatically once the faulty sensor has been replaced mate. When you first start the car, a signal is sent round the sensors to make sure they are all working, then if they are the abs light goes off. They can be glitchy as hell though! Mine on DD was, it eventually went off after emoving the sensor, plugging back in again. Only other way to reset the light (even though it shouldn't need reset) is to do the ecu reset (disconnect battery etc)

Thats strange mate, the Jass bits i bought were great fit (gear stick surround and cup holder) It's the IL Motorsport parts I've found to be a complete pain fitment wise. Whats the bootlight look like, not seen the Jass one yet?
-
Also think the rust on the floor pans probably points to a possible roof leak in the past, so be well worth checking all the seals around the roof to see if they need replacing. Mine doesn't leak, but if I point a pressure washer directly at the top of the passenger door window, there is a little bit gets past the seal right in the middle. Going to replace all mine soon.
-
Nice to see some photos mate. To be fair, rust wise I've seen a lot worse than that so for a 97 she's not too bad. Liking those braces, be really interesting to see what difference they make once she's on the road. Some nice mods going on there that I've not seen on the mx5's before.
-
That'll make a cracking track car! I need to give Krzys a call soon, not had a chat with him for ages
-
be interesting to see Xp on an ssd and 8gb of ram!
