    Amazing how they can just keep going... So long as they can avoid the dreaded rust. Shame it's come to the end of the road but she's done you well with that mileage. What's on the shopping list as a replacement?
  2. dr_broon
    Sounds like that's a good plan matey. Can you not get a shed for the sherage stuff to change it back to a garage garage
  3. dr_broon
    Yeah, fairly sure they don't.

    Nightmare mate, it's been proper windy here as well.. Fair bit of damage about. Crazy that that bit had blown away - do you think the wheelbarrow knocked it off? I'll probably end up with a one left over if you can't get sorted, but it'll be after getting mine re-trimmed as the one on the new car isn't great on the passenger side, so I wasn't too get it sorted with the one from tubs... Not sure when I'll get it done though mate

    I had to dip back and check what it was. I weighed the dc2 one before it went on, but can't remember if I weighed the one that came off.
  6. dr_broon
    7.5kg for the dc2 one, and about 9.5kg for the vti

    I've got a dc2 flywheel in mine, have done for years now and had no trouble. Definitely makes it rev freer. I can't remember the weight difference between them now though.

    I've got the full thing out at the minute, ready for transplant from tubs into the HUD.... That and all the wiring loom that the wires are spliced into so they can be identified

    Nice one. Did H&P send a new case, or did it have the innards as well?
  10. dr_broon
    Out of interest Jake, how did you go about getting that? Was it just a case of popping to the dealer and asking?
  11. dr_broon
    Going to try and remember this one for the future.
  12. dr_broon
    Aye, it is all messed up - that's why I thought I'd lump all the vti ones together... Might be somewhere near right. Deffo not right that there's more vtis than vti.

    Looking on howmanyleft, across the different descriptions for the m vti, there's the below numbers taxed as of June last year 1.8 VTi = 57 Civic VTiS = 94 aerodeck VTiS = 10 So 161 VTi models left kicking about. Not sure where the normal aerodeck vti is included in that though. The only other aerodeck listed is the SE. probably the ones that haven't succumbed to rust or engine donor are with folk who are keeping a hold of them now.

    After all the money spent on the resto, I don't think I've got any say in what the wife's next motor is

    Nice The interiors are well smart - some good camper conversions as well. I've been looking (window shopping) at honda odyssey absolute mugens recently for if we ever get rid of the accord... They're a bigger lump of a car than the accord, but look a bit like a people carrier crossed with an ep3

    Sweet, is that an alphard? That's my alternative to the wife's vw van dream
  17. dr_broon
    Yes, looks well tidy
  18. dr_broon
    Nice one mate. Hope that you're doing okay with the virus.
  19. dr_broon
    That wheel looks the mutts nuts
  20. dr_broon
    Good to hear. At least the weather's cack so makes staying in a bit easier - I've hardly left the house since Christmas
  21. dr_broon
    Hope you are okay mate.
  22. dr_broon
    Nice one - like kink says, well done for sticking with it. I remember you saying that it meant a lot to keep the car going. I ended up using a lot of rover bits and pieces getting mine sorted - some worked out, and others didn't (like fuel tank float).
  23. dr_broon
    Looks like a nice one there mate.
  24. dr_broon
    All the best to everyone!

    Bloody water leaks in these civics! I went out and started mine the other day and had a pootle around the estate away from any salt. The inside of the windscreen was quite wet - more than I thought it should be, and when I got back there was a bit of water had ran into the spare wheel well. If checked it a few times since its been parked up for the winter, but I think when I've pulled it the drive onto the slope in front of the house, it's ran backwards and down into the boot area. Going to get a cover for it until I can get a garage sorted, then get the leak sorted.
