Wowzers! That'll be a beast then!

Know what you mean about the weather. In theory winter's the perfect time to get sone jobs done cos the deck is off the road, but got zero motivation to do anything in the cold / wet / dark. @Dave any idea why Jake can't post pics?

Glad you're happy with the exhaust - it does look pretty discrete. I liked the difference my sports cat made, to feel and tone.

It's mad how obsessed with salt we are here and how much difference it makes. It's going to be off road for the winter (after Christmas tree duties at the weekend) but wanted to give it a treatment.

Still like that blue mate

That sucks mate, at least it didn't cause an accident. Hopefully it's an easy fix.. Not what you want though.

Turns out that it was losing it from both drive shaft seals and shifter linkage seal. Seems groovy now with them replaced and another mtf top up.

Cheers man, I've really fell for it. Crawled around underneath at the weekend squirting lanoguard in all it's crevices. Just lifted it right up on the bags and it was higher than I can normally jack the deck up 😂 Took a couple of (not very good) before pics after a bit pressure wash the day before. Generally clean enough, but glad I've got it treated now as there's a few places where there's some slight signs of rust starting.

Welcome back mate, good to see you back in a civic - looks up to your usual minter standard 😎

Coming along nicely. Looks ace in the shot. She's going to be a minter when you're done.

Spot on. I'm sure these cars look better the older they get 😎

Tank looks in decent nick for the age - my first one rotted through years ago. I tried using new parts from an my for mine, but with little success as they were all the wrong size as well. Could be a weak point for parts for the future. The b series in these can also be a pain to bleed - one trick with them is to either park uphill or jack the front up.

Yeah, looking good, should make a big difference with the new bushes and arb.. It really made a difference when I fitted the MG arb to the deck (even the vti decks don't have one). Good luck with the tank, hope all the fittings are okay.

Welcome mate 😎 Looks properly clean does that - low kms as well!. Almost looks brand new!

Wheels suit it mate, 👍

Nice progress there mate.. I bet it's driving nice with the new bushes and suspension bits. It's sitting nice. Interior bits and bobs sounds interesting

That arb was pretty crusty before ey? My old one was worse for wear as well, not quite that bad though. I guess they're pretty exposed to all the road grot

That looks cool. Could do with that on my stepwagon as the radio is miles away!

Sounds like a good one then bud. Cheers mate. I'm on my second shell though unfortunately... Rust got the better of my first one. I got my resto done at classic and retro near Langley Park, but that was mostly chassis work. There's aldo a fella up near Throckley that I was wanting to get some work done on my wife's old accord, but he was dead busy at the time - GBR body repair. Looks like he does good work. If you're Newcastle way might be worth checking him out

So are you looking to replace the steering wheel with one that has cruise control switches? Assuming that the steering wheel fitment on the ma9 is the same as the MB/MC one, then you're looking at wheels with the same fitment as eg/dc2. I'm fairly sure that ek and accord shared the same wheel, but it's a different fitting to ours. EDIT... Just realised that it looks like the cruise control buttons are an add on to the steering wheel. It might be worth exploring parts diagrams like on Honda parts uk to see what optional extras might have been available and get some parts numbers to help your search. If, as the first post suggests, the US integra had it as an option, then the cable fell from that could be compatible - in which case have a spy at acura parts websites in the US for parts diagrams

Hi mate, that was my wife 😊 She messaged me to say that she'd seen an aerodeck there, glad that you joined 👍 Looks like a proper tidy example, been ages since I've seen another deck round here. Welcome to the club matey.

Nice one. I bet it's raucous without the exhaust 😂

Those wheels look nice mate, should look good. Screen wash bottle doesn't look of place at all.. Handy to know. Do you think you'll get on the road before winter sets in (and the salt comes out)?

That E10 is absolute dog turd.. Only e5 goes in ours, especially after it ruined the injectors in Karen's accord. It's like a double bonus of super unleaded in top of not being E10 👌

Will have to have a spy at that 👍
