    Jake, did you add any washers or spaces to the bolts when you fitted it? I seem to remember when folk first started fitting them it was a thing because they had a different geometry to the civic one. I need to check mine when I get it back, but can't remember the crack.

    We had the 2.0 exec tourer before the type S. Was a nice car to drive, and felt even more solid than the type S - even the doors felt heavier (maybe because of the upgraded speakers of the premium sound system), but the 2 litre seemed a bit under powered in the tourer - especially when loaded with a week's worth of camping gear.

    I'm glad the bar came up okay... It was Definitely crispy - was probably all that was holding tubs rear end together The solenoid should be getting plenty of fresh air there. She's looking mint s always.

    I recently had skunk dc2/eg LCAs fitted, and they had to get them machined to be able to fit the new standard mc2 shocks over them - I didn't realise why at first, but that confirms what Jake's said above.

    Just twigged that it's @dmrichards deck - nice one. Like the sound of what you've got planned there

    I nearly tagged you noodles to see what you thought... I know you've done plenty of research on it

    I've just seen these on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/293660003362 According to the blurb, they're based on the eibach design, which presumably is the xpower ones that @weetec managed to get a set of years ago. Interestingly they say that they're no good for the other petrol ZS models as they're too light at the front, which ties in with what some have found with ZS springs in the past. The claimed drop is less than the aftermarket eibach springs for the vti. Thought I'd share anyway

    I like them. They did keep that model running past the m civics - the new gen (7th) came in at 03 I think. The wife's got an 04 accord tourer, and it's a really nice car to drive. The accord type r of the age you're looking at looks quite like a bigger mb6 really.

    Welcome along @garbs mate.. That's a lovely deck you've got yourself there - I recognise it but can't place it. @KiNK43 is an incredibly helpful chap!

    I stole this pic off his Facebook page... I'm sure that he used to have a sportier number.. I'm ask the missus.

    I'd love to have space for a decent size garage.. If we ever move house again it's going to be a high priority.

    Can't remember whether I posted these pictures before, but I just found them on my phone. Nice and clean under there before getting resealed

    Nice one Are these the wheels you're looking at? They should look pretty mean I know what you mean about getting the child seat into the back of the deck.. It's a bit of a manoeuvre isn't it!

    Hi Faz. I looked into this quite a lot last year as I needed to change mine. In the end I got a new fuel feed line from honda, and had the low pressure ones made up with copper. I couldn't really find any braided kits in the UK other than just engine bay, and not a massive amount of reliable info on what types and sizes of hoses and fittings. The closest that I found was a guy in the states selling full kits for a dc2 integra. I had some messages with him about it and will try and find his details.
