Oops I've seen it. :) Looks good. Wonder if some cars had different column. Cus someone saying integra wheel didn't fit there's recently. But it always used to be Integra and civic eg wheels that go on. Ep3 wheel normally fits ek civic. Weird. Either way looks great. Nice car.

Great progress already. Looks a nice clean shell tbf. You got a pic of the steering wheel???

Low compression would point to rings or valves not seating properly for one reason or another. But as engines high miler it's bound to have some wear, rings valve guides etc. Not necessarily anything to worry about. Cold starts will leave sooty mark. Not to worry too much about that. blue smoke when let off throttle would indicate bad stem seals as the sudden vacuum could pull oil past the seal. Not sure what's causing your issue. Just throwing things out there.

Don't know mate. Would only be guessing. Does it smoke at any point? As that would be an indicator of stem seals or rings going. Compression test would give you an indicator of engine health aswell. Could it be that it's actually just running rich and contaminating the oil?

Looking stunning mate. Lovely lovely deck.

Yeah I guess must be. Only a few mm's in it. But enough. Yes I really like the coil packs. I think they look great for some reason. And so far been. No more worrying car won't start when come out the shop with your milk and tea bags. Shame can't get rid of the dizzy all together but still has sensors inside. And use it to set ignition timing

Had a little project to do today. Baught a dizzy cap delete from abroad ages ago and it finally turned up and bloody thing didn't even fit for some reason. It's slightly too small. So had to cut a spacer to place between it and the dizzy. Turned out well enough.

I have no idea how people run exhaust straight out the bonnet. Crazy loud!!!
-
Thanks. Turbo is good fun, get it done!!! Looks like a real tidy base you've got there.
-
Nice car that
-
Bit jealous of that tbh lol. Really good! Haven't got room for 2 din in mine cus of me other s**t going on.
-
Nice of you to say so Dave. But it ain't perfect. Has a few minor imperfections due to track days mainly, but what do you expect if gonna use it properly. But it certainly gets pampered and everything it needs.
-
Yeah there nice. And any second hand ones I've found all the chrome is coming away inside
-
Looks nice that. Tbh the steering is heavy on these, could well be just how It is if not used to it. ( Or not depending on how heavy) Seems like a good purchase then. Nice fogs aswell. Would love to find some of them.
-
Ya got it then?
-
I love it. Proper pain in th bum tho. It has cost me a small fortune and keeps testing me. It's now running a high flow sports exhaust!!! As in the bckbox has decided it no longer wants to be part of the exhaust! Lol
-
Couldnt leave Hilux out either. Part of the family now, Even if it does keep breaking! Eeeek.. quick was and wasmx goes a long way

Im up and running again. Booked in at Dynodaze to make some alterations to downpipe. As new turbo is v band. And also decided to run a wideband lambda alongside the s300 ECU. So needs a boss welding on for that. Otherwise should be good to go. Celebrated with a wash as been in garage a while now and gets really dusty in there for some reason.
-
Hi Mick are you on facebook? As probably going to be the best way to find one in my opinion. There is a civic5 Facebook group. And some others. Aerodeck owners and ma,mb,mc owners.( Or something similar :) ) I've pulled myself away from it now, but was regularly cars for sale there. good luck on the hunt.
-
Yeah absolutely rubbish. Wheel literally rocking back and forth. Spose it's had a hard time in those miles and there aftermarket. Guess you can't beat the OEM stuff.
-
I've gotta be honest I won't be touching the stuff. Sure it's fine not being weird. Just cars mapped on super and it sits around for ages at a time. And ya said about metal fuel tank etc. So your getting roughly half your normal mpg @Dave? I wonder if the old ECU reset might help?
-
Not sure what area your in. But can always recommend dynodaze in Nuneaton for any work or custom parts for your Honda. They Make beautiful exhausts.
