  1. someone was selling dc2 oil coolers on ebay a month or so ago for about 45 quid... I spent a few days poring over the workshop manual for the m and comparing it to the teg manual. I was reading somewhere on the web about someone who'd added one to his gsr, and I think he had to drill a new port into the block? ended up falling into the too complicated box for me.. but i did wonder if you could just tap into the cooling system somewhere else... also, the m's got a smaller radiator than the teg, so wasn't sure if it could cope. sorry for ramblin loving all of the awsomising that you're doing to the deck 1"£££$££"!!
  2. well, either the new o ring for the dizzy or vtec solenoid gasket was the culprit for the phantom oil leak and not the head gasket... 2 weeks now leak free.. HURRAH!
  3. yup.. pretty chuffed tbh spotted it on a deck someone was breaking on ebay but wasn't advertised seperatly...
  4. ace work there fella... I'm quite liking the bumper.. totally different
  5. 1"£££$££"!! looking good buddy
  6. yey! finally looking good bud.. will look ace with the skirts.
  7. [attachment=0]images.jpg[/attachment]you know what is yet folks!!! hope they ok simon yup... rolf harris stickers! I don't want to say too much coz it might SPOIL things...
  8. Cheers Jamie - yes, they were the first ones I did. If you're thinking about it, make sure that you get bright LEDs, coz the first one I got were pretty dull and didn't show up the dials very well.
  9. thought it might have been the rocker cover, but doesn't look like it. I was wondering about the solenoid too... might as well change em both for the sake of it cheers dude
  10. cheers for the knob love guys! had Tubs with the friendly neighbourhood Honda tech for a few bits and bobs... track rod end (so it goes where it's supposed to in corners... which is nice); new(ish) rear calipers so the handbrake (and rear brakes generally) work again; new wheel bearing (to stop the shocking grinding noise); also swapped the rear number plate for a carbon effect one to match the front, coz the GB one I got from Halfords 2 years ago was fading! such a sad sight to see a fading plate... looks tatty imo. stuck on a "motorsport" ( ) twin horn... still sounds cheerfull, just with more balls! and waiting for a new o-ring for the dizzy, coz it looks like that's where my slight oil leak's coming from... not the head gasket... PHEW! getting the basics sorted ready for some more fun....
  11. looking sweet mate... good choice with those wheels too dunno how it'll b with the coilies, but I've got my front dampers set much firmer than the rear (konis)... massively helps with understeer
  12. looking sweet Davey boy how do you find the seats - is the design any different to the standard half leather / different bolster size etc. also what are they like in cold / hot weather?
  13. looks like you had great fun there fella did you have the track to yourself as well? no-one there to pile into the back of you...
  14. so I'm getting very aware about how hot my engine bay gets, and how all of my air intake parts are hot to the touch... so the first step is to get some flexible air duct from a hydroponics shop on ebay and hide some bits with it... I'll report back on if it makes much difference. 1"£££$££"!!
  15. love what you've done here mate - very different
  16. cheers Jake.. just feels nice palming it up into 3rd or 5th, or pulling it back down into 4th or 2nd.... mmmm gear changes....
  17. so the next thing to catch up on is the razo gear knob... love the feel of the finger grips on the front... all fits the hand really nice. spent ages pearing into the display case at halfords trying to decide which one i wanted. it's the little things that bring a bit of joy
