Big milestone achieved there bud. Looks weird the engine being so the way across to the driver side with space at the other end.. So used to it being the other way. Exciting times 😎

Sorry for the late reply, this one in green

Only thing like that I've had any experience of has been ball joints... I went through a faze of my deck eating them for fun less than a year sometimes (from memory even 6 months, but it was a long time ago now).

Mot ready.. In tomorrow morning - fingers crossed 😎

So been having a weird graunchy feeling when driving for a little while, that the garage hadn't been able to find any issues. It's been like a notchy feeling through the steering, sometimes a bit vague, sometimes a bit of a groan when turning and accelerating. It got worse when we travelled down to Donnington for JDM Jam, and then when it's driven it for a slightly longer drive. I'd convinced myself it was lsd / gearbox related, so as a starter for 10 decided to go for a fluid change. Bought the 3ls if fluid, and took it to the guy who works on my car. When he called me, he said that there was only about 1/4 of a litre of fluid came out 😬😮😳. No wonder it seemed nasty when things had warmed up a bit. It feels so much better now, but hopefully no lasting issues as a result. Going to go for another change in a couple of months to flush any nasties out.

Some guy came over when I was cleaning it, and asked if he could take some photos and put them on socials. He was saying "you hardly see these anymore... I've just came in pretty much and I've already seen like 5 supras" 😂

Anything needed Dave, or just not got to it?

Quick pic of the mini honda meet at ours now. Karen's civic, Steppy McStepwagon, and Tubs2 (aka Shelly) Still waiting for the bumper for the wagon.. Got one sent eventually, but they sent the wrong one, so waiting for it to be collected and swapped. Other than that it's mot ready.

That's a result. Like you say, abs sensors are a mare on the M. Glad you're still liking the type s mate.

Had loads of folk talking about it - gets a lot more interest nowadays.

Diagram and parts numbers all here dude https://www.parts-honda.uk/honda-cars/CIVIC-AERODECK/1999/VTI/STEERING-BRAKE-SUSPENSION/FRONT-SHOCK-ABSORBER/17S1E01/B__2800/4/8427 Rubber mounts are probably worth doing Don't forget mgzs / rover compatibility for suspension if you don't have any joy using honda part numbers

Sounds like a frustrating few hours in the heat there. Hate stuff like that.

Liking the look you've got with it chief

Can't wait to get it in the road and go adventuring 🏕️

Some of the rear seat configurations The middle row also flip round to face backwards.. Pretty clever setup 😎
