was it the fella who'd installed a screen from a bmw or something? think he was from Europe... wasnt it the one painted mg blue with an ma front end?

should help Bud... always seems a bit suspicious if a car hasn't got a mot.

did it Sound like it was spinning quicker than usual? mine did that when my dizzy went...

I did a bit of looking about this a we while ago, and there's a bit of a delay in getting the activation of the cut out (think that's what they were called). would be cool though coz you could have a smaller diameter for lower revs, and effectively a larger diameter for higher revs without the power loss at lower revs. I was thinking about having a bike exhaust coming in to increase the flow...

if it's this engine it's not looking good: R18A2Found in:2007- Honda Civic (European-market FN1 & FK2)Displacement: 1,799 cc (109.8 cu in)Compression: 10.5:1Bore & stroke: 81.0 mm × 87.3 mm (3.19 in × 3.44 in)Power: 140 PS (103 kW; 138 bhp) @ 6,300 rpmTorque: 17.7 kgf·m (174 N·m (128 ft·lbf)) @ 4,300 rpmVTEC window: 4,800 rpm - 5,200 rpmhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_%28ninth_generation%29 unless it ends up with a turbo?

nice tidy motor there bud

I unpicked the staples, but I think that I just reassembled it without the staples... was going to try pushing them back through but don't think I could.

looks nice mate

was just mooching around here: http://www.honda-access.com/268/en/intro.jsp and found that it looks like the sporty tourer is going to be a...... 1.8 VTI

the oem dc2 manifold / collector added a nice subtle growl when I got mine

that's the fella

looks lush and nice results on the dyno love the new wheels as well - look top notch.

agree with all above - ball joint was making funky noises on mine for ages before found out what it was. doesn't do it when it's jacked up because there's no weight on it.

sorry to hear it bud.. but you've done yourself proud with what you've done to her

I'm sure I remember a thread where someone had this... I'm thinking that it was something like the dimmer switch was disconnected?

would love to... just depends on how things are with the new arrival

more of a long term to do list than a deffo do this year but: get the p28 chipped and tuned get some bracing action (h brace) some decent replacement lcas get the koni shocks serviced slight roll on front arches to stop rubbing finish taking air con out (either strip bits out of box behind glove box or get one from non air con m) get a bit of painting done refurb oem wheels for next winter get brakes refurbed cam seal replace fit blue hoses (when things warm up a bit) probs more that I can't remember...

if you want to get the proper Honda peat numbers, delete the bit of the web address that is _pfk

congrats Dave.. massively deserved more just need to bring it to a meet so we can drool over it

my eibach springs were scary with the oem shocks - much better when I got the koni shocks

good work on getting it sorted - looking good too
