  1. Nice warm sleeping bag is the way forward
  2. True, but i love waking up and making a cuppa all wrapped up still, but nice and fresh
  3. Ahhhh.. A good stuffing So jealous about camping... Been lush camping weather.
  4. I'll have a spy and take a pic of it if you like?
  5. Cool I thought I was imagining things again
  6. Must admit I've thought about doing this... It seems a shame for all of that cool fresh air to be keeping the wrong side of the engine bay cool
  7. Man... I'm sure there was a thread about this a while ago but can i hell find it... I'm sure it talked about how the mb came first and honda sold the pattern to rover... Think that @Dave might have posted it?
  8. Didn't the old rover 216 gti have a honda engine in as well?
  9. Yeah, 188 on autotrader... But more than the 153 of our 2.0... That's why I want type s... Bet the diesel had a nice lump of torque though? Sounds like your girlfriend's exec has some nice toys as well
  10. Yeah... It kind of builds momentum...
  11. True, but how far did you get through DeLaSouls thread.. Not sure if it's planning on going on the road again?
  12. I'd love to hear that argument But sir, we told you that using different tyres would affect the great handling.. Yes, but you also told me that those tyres are basically unsafe in the wet..
  13. @timgod has done a fair bit of time attack action.. http://civic5.com/forum/topic/3803-civic-aerodeck-vti-from-belarus-third-stage-time-attack-smolenskring/ And of course @DeLaSoul and his mega strip out project.. http://civic5.com/forum/topic/3647-mc2-project-chassis-prep/
  14. Just double checking, we haven't got the sat nav version, but on ours was have to set the head unit to cd / aux to use the kit. Also, the kit plays stuff in the following order of priority : - Bluetooth - ipod - Aux Sometimes if it's connected to my phone on Bluetooth, it won't play the ipod even though there's nothing playing on the phone.
  15. I've got 2 1/4 inch on mine. Custom sports Cat, Supersprint centre and powerflow back box. It's not loud but you can hear it and it sounds nice. Got a dc2 mani as well. Everything I've read our been told us the same, unless you're going for big power, you'll lose power through most of the range with a bigger system (probably a bit more power at high revs though)
  16. Had to Google that myself, plastic weight saving goodness...
  17. Sounds good Jake... Hope it goes well with the body shop
  18. Just remembered. When i fitted our ipod kit, the instructions for getting to the back of the head unit that i found online said to take the top bit of the dash off, as well as the underneath... Realised afterwards that I could have got away without taking the top section off because the multi changer port is on the bottom of the headunit so you don't need to take it out. The fascia below the headunit was a bit of a pig to pry off though.
  19. When i first got my eibach springs i had standard shocks on the front but koni on the back because the old ones were kebabs (that was supposed to say knackered but I like the typo ). The front bounced around all over the place which is why I ended up with konis on the front as well. By all means try it, but I e think the standard shocks are up to the job. Ride height was good though... Don't have any pics.
  20. Cheers fella.. Just clicked round 185k the other day... Needs a few bits of bodywork sorting though. Krzys did have a nightmare getting those brakes refurbed!
