jejeje thanks! I'm glad that people recognize the work done

Finally I found a good DC2 steering wheel to fit in my mb1, and that's the result.
Easy installation but... there are two pins in the MB boss which make the steering wheel doesn't fit to the end of the axis. There are 2-3 mm between the wheel back plate and the boss, everybody has the same problem?
-
why did you decided to buy another mb1? I have one and I'm very proud of him but I would buy a facelift one to begin a different project
-
Thanks guys! I`d be probably lost without your help. As soon as I fit the steering wheel i'll post some pics and a how to guide for the next!

Hi, I've recently bought an itr steering wheel, but I don't understand how it fits because i got this backplate, with the srs hole in the down middle
And it has to fit with this coniguration, where the srs part turned 45 degree
So my questions are: is my steeringwheel really from an itr? and if it is correct, how can I fit the wheel with those 45 degrees?
I need you help guys!!!

Hi, do you know the reference of the dc2 momo srs steering wheel?
-
Thanks guys, well maybe it's time to get serious and change the exhaust manifold I've in my mind the one from "supersprint" but i'm not sure if I can homologate it easily, and I'd like to know too the hp gain.What do you think?Also I'm thinking in the DC2 steering wheel, but it's difficult to find one in mint condition.By the time i've already bought the cup holder, the most useful thing.

There's only one missing thing in my M, and it's the most functional, you know what i'm talking about.... cup holder.... -
My secret is the Honda EPC. I found this in the EPC and the next day I went to my honda dealer to ask for the item. The problem is that you've to ask for the parts in many countries until you find it :S

Those mudflaps looks pretty well. Good solution if you have the side skirts.

Hi again everybody and sorry for the lack of posts this lasts weeks.
I've been soo busy with the university, but I didn't forget the civic! In fact, I've been collecting some cool items for it. Basically I got 3 rare items, and I'm looking for the last, and more dificult to find, one.
Attention before continue reading: haters gonna hate
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first I got, Rover 45 boot tray. It was a casuality that I found this in this forum, so I bought the last one for sale. (sorry, my mobile phone camera is a piece of s---t)
I'm sure i'm not the only one here that have this usefull accesory, but for the one's who want it, it fits perfect!
Now I can organize some of the junk that I keep inside the boot.
Looks cool with the rear custom fitted strut bar.
The second thing is a brand new genuine civic ma/mb1 mud flaps. Yes, some months ago I bought the mb6 ones, but they didn't fit well and I decided to find the originals for prefacelift models. It was soo hard to find but I managed to get a pair.
And finally the jewel of the crown, one of the last's (if it isn't the last) civic MB1 original front lip, brand new direct from Honda.
Again the same as the rear mudflaps. Bought the MB6 lip before but I didn't like how it fits, and before doing custom fitment I decided to get the original one, but it wasn't as easy as it seems, it took me months to find it, and the seller told me it was probably the last one in stock. XD
Well, as soon as I pass the anual inspection I'll fit the mudflaps and the painted (in matt black) front lip. You'll see some pics soon
Hope you enjoy it, and be patient until I find the last rare item.

There is a good how to in the tech section on here for changing the fuel filter. If you unscrew the petrol cap that depressurizes the system so you don't lose much fuel.
Where did you get that knob from??
Yes, I unscrewed the petrol cap, but still had many fuel inside the filter, suficient to wet 5 rags :S (hard to see with the actual fuel price
)I get the knob from ebay UK

Hi again, I've been busy the last days, but I did some DIY with my civic.
First of all I replaced and restored the pollen filter. As you can see in the pics the filter hasn't been changed in the 18 years of the car.
The hole was full of dirt and needed a clean up. Some of the dirt was from the insulation foam of the filter frame because it was rotten.
The outside dust oversteped the insulation foam and went to the ventilation system, so I decided to replace the foam for something better.
The solution was a windows insulator. So first of all I replaced all the foam, cleaned the frame with alcohol until it was as clean as can be, and then placed the new insulator.
But then I had a problem! The new insulator was made of rubber, and it doesn't slide inside the hole. The solution was grease (vaselin)
And now I have new filter for at least 1 year
Then was time to change the fuel filter. I have to say that the Haynes doesn't give a correct instructions to change it, I couldn't find the fuel pump fuse, so I didn't empty the old filter and had to be careful removing it.
In order to work easily, I removed the battery, the air filter kit and the strut bar, so I get some space to put the spanners.
The instalation of the new one was easier than the removal step.
Not a hard work, but takes a long time if you have to clean the fuel.
I didn't took any pics of the proces because it was my first time and I didn't know what would be the result
Finally I'm going to show my last reward
Brand new vti-s gear knob. Unused, undamanged and in his original box. With instructions for those ones who doesn't know how to unscrew a bolt XDHope you enjoy it

Finally today arrived, the front & rear mud flaps
Now I have many things to do with the car and no time 
Written in the task list the vti front lip. Ready to paint it in matt black.
Also I want to repair the front "tow anchor" (I don't know the english word for this thing, see the picture). The last owner managed to damange this part with every kerbstone (yeah I recognize once I touch it too). So I'm thinking in remove the rust, polish and pain it with duplicolor "bed armor". It seems a radical solution but sure it doesn't tear and oxidize again

Finally two hot pics of this weekend. Nothing special, only the skunk2 tank covers fitted and sunny picture of the tow hook
