Thyre pretty awesome, spent too much money on that van
-
Debadge FTW!
-
nothing better than a family of Hondas
-
Theres rat look and then theres this....
-
the starter solenoid is rated for alot more NM than your bolt should ever be done up too..... If it blows then your starter was probably on its way out anyway
-
yeah its just a quick flick of the ignition. not quick enough for a power stroke to take place
-
Yeah. its the force of the starter pushing the flywheel. which is bolted to the crank
-
ive just bought an mb6 other day and instantly knew they were fitted, the ride was awful
-
Had some before where they literally just wont budge.. even a Fiat Scudo which i snapped the bolt clean in half.. that was a fun day...
-
of course forgot theyre back to front lol, im a mechanic by trade pal and done it plenty of times.. works a charm
-
put your breaker bar on and have it so the handle is touching the floor closest to the front bumper (not the rear bumper side)
Then just flick the ignition on and the force of the engine will crack it off

That looks loads better mate
goodbye horrible green !!Shame about the sleeves! What coilovers are on the priority list?
Depends whats about for MB chassis, cant remember what u can and cant use. ek/dc/eg??
Welcome back bud, what happened to your last one?
This one looks nice, I like the smoothed bumper, coilover sleeves hmm.
I'm not a massive fan of the DC2 rims but they look a million times better than the green ones.Heres the last one, was the earliest ever recorded VTi-S in the UK
I ended up taking a corner abit too fast and the back end took me off the road over a kerb and 30ft down a field into a ditch
I stripped her down and sold the parts
Front and rear has been smoothed out and i love it
They didnt cost me anything and thinking about carnival yellow until i think of some different whees to go for.
wtf I was just about to comment on them wheels I love them lol
Theres something wrong with you lol

Ok so was after a new car and after owning 5 hondas and getting boed of my current Skoda Octavia 20v Turbo, I thought i'd go back to Honda
so browsing when all of a sudden this popped up on a local facebook page....
Needless to say i went straight over there. The chap said in the advert it would require a few things for MOT which is due in a month.
Took it for a quick spin and drove beautifully.
For the price he had it up for i snapped it up and took her home.
It drove spot on and on the 5 mile drive home i noticed a few things
- It was bouncing all over the place
- The drivers window reg had 'Hondaitis' (the usual goes up and leaves a small inch gap at the top
)- Had the original Pioneer tape deck ..... cool but useless
- Majority of the standard speakers were blown
- I dont like lime green!!
so had a quick glance under the wheels and my suspicions were confirmed...
COILOVER SLEEVES!!!!!
So first couple of quick things..
Seats were a bit worn so quick tidy up
and the major thing...
Those wheels have to go!!!
so i made a call and after a straight swap obtained my old wheels from a friend
- So suspension has to be replaced with some coilovers or decent springs..
- engine bay needs some goodies as its boring at the moment
- Gunna give the paint a full detail and see how she comes up
Let me know what u think
