    Tbh looks like it is the camber that's doing it... It's the driver side one that's noisy and that's the one that's most out. Need to spend some pennies on camber control

    Well, it's creaking ball joint time again.. A couple of weeks ago i jacked the car up, grease gun at the ready, wheel off... Huh? Only have to take the ball joints out to get to the grease nipple! Sheesh. Spent ages trying to do the hammer technique but it wasn't going anywhere (looks like the threaded shaft is a bit bent), so i gave up. Somehow though, the efforts stopped the creaking (may have been all the lube i sprayed on trying to get the ball joint out?). It's came back, so definitely need greasing properly, but the question is why does my car eat ball joints (or at least make them dry out)?

    yup - 2 holes. I looked into getting a rover/MG one when mine was goosed, but they just have the one hole.

    Actually, must be wrong - Honda website says they are k20...
  15. dr_broon
    Don't know anything more than that tbh, a honda tech i know had a visit to the bttc pits with the team and that's what he told me when we were having a crack about it.

    Apparently the touring car tourer had a detuned version of the new type r engine.
  18. dr_broon
    oooooooo! "Hasegawa-san adds that a Civic Type R Tourer isn’t out of the question, with the same engine but a toned-down look. Yet that would depend on demand – especially from the UK, where the car will be built and where most of the latest hot Hondas are likely to be sold.

    It's used for signs and printing exhibition displays. The wife works at a printers, but they use some other stuff but didn't sound as good.

    Where did you order the dibond from naz? I read that it's good for making diy splitters, but didn't find anywhere on the web that seems to sell it retail.
  25. dr_broon
