  1. a good idea but I think it's getting old and poorly hence the time to move on.nplusbits far too personalised for me. I like a blank canvas to do my own thing with. But tbh I think I am gonna start looking for one.
  2. Simpler than it looks. Just nuts and bolts. Hope you got small hands to get the hoses off the matrix tho. That probably took as long as removing the dash
  3. To be fair it's an easy job even tho it looks daunting. Just takes a good while. I reckon if I was to do it again could be done in a few hours. But I was tackling if after work between feeding kids and bed times etc.
  4. Yup not cool. I'm gonna tax it this week. Get it back on the road. I was thinking it would be bad for it over winter but I think it's worse it just sitting there wet
  5. Miss them so much. Want another one!! Not sure I'll be allowed. Problem is I used to tell her something was wrong with it so I could upgrade parts. So now she thinks there unreliable!! My bad.
  6. Damn water. My civic is mouldy as hell and wet too. It's had a so called breathable waterproof cover on. It recommended leaving the windows open to ventilate. f**king thing was soaked under the cover. Floor wet. Seats wet. Mould all over the wheel and seats.
  7. Holy crap they are like sieves these m's!!! Hope it ain't the matrix for ya mate. It's not a fun job really. So long winded to get at.
  8. On a serious note tis sad mate. But again knew it was coming. Partly because you told me although that means nothing because I forget everything.. But still onwards to better things.
  9. I'm trying sweet talk the Mrs over. Quite a long way so ill see what I can do mate. Would love to go. Will also need to check oout sound restriction
  10. Sorry I can't be any more useful. I don't have the car anymore to look. Seems im going to have to it all over again though will be needing a new alarm system no.
  11. To be honest there fantastic. There on my eg now.Turn them to soft and there firm but very forgiving. Some might say comfortable especially in a low car. Turn up. I usually roll 15 clicks hard front and 18 on the back. And the car handles like a roller coaster. Very flat and responsive with extremely good grip.
  12. Did they not give you the civic wiring diagram. Makes it all make a lot more sense for sure.
  13. Would just like to drive it. Track day or two. Santa pod. It doesn't really want for anything just few little tweaks I wanna do. And a subtle but bigger spoiler. Think it needs it. Looks a bit weird and I think that's why. Oh and once and for all sort that fooking oil leak from the head. Thought I'd cured it but oh no last time I looked was still there.
  14. I think your right. And yes two keys. Guys not answering his phone. Part timer lol
  15. Yeah the fronts were on lowest setting rears wound up quite a lot. Yeah they were really nice wheels, sold them to knight. Bit gutted really I loved them
  16. No it doesn't. I'm about to ring an auto locksmith. At least hopefully he can make me a new key even if he can't get alarm and immobiliser working I could probably strip that out and replace with a new alarm system. But would be nice to have the key with ought changing all the barrels
  17. Does look really nice mate. Pretty clean and tidy hey
  18. Yeah should be fine. I used eg tein coil overs for ages on my vti. We're great. Again the rears were short so they were wound up quite high but the car looked low.. More travel.
  19. Sounds more like a ball joint to me dude. When stationary they drop link isn't moving nor is the top mount. The newer ep shape civic have a plastic bearing in the top mount that rotates instead of a upper control arm. But we have the upper arm. So the knuckle rotates on two ball joints. Can cause squeaking and creaking and knocking over bumps etc.
