Cold weather and short journeys are not very good for measuring fuel economy. Most accurate is top the fuel tank, drive ~60 miles with normal driving on the highway and then top the fuel tank again, preferably in warm weather. If after this journey the MPG is high than you have a problem. I never measure mpg in the city, too much variables.
It's not wise to use fogs, they produce bright light where you don't need it - very close to the front of the car. Your eyes focus on this bright light and loose visibility where you need it - up ahead. If your headlights are good enough fog lights are useless even in deep fog.

Old post, but let me answer. The clock is actually a board computer with a lot of functions. More info here: http://www.telwis.pl/universal-trip-computer-utcomp-p-119.html?osCsid=029c18c34db86a76dfd35c273b10a5ea

Niiice, looks fantastic in there. S2000 cluster is one of the best looking clusters ever. And good job with the wiring. Does everything work on it now ?
-
Oh I was thinking of that as well
Not bad, just waiting for Christmas holidays so I can have time to do mine. Also are the boot lights stuck to the carpet? I did mine with COB strip few weeks ago and stuck them to carpet with double sided tape but they keep falling off lolYou need a side flexible led like this:
Then it is side attached to the plastic. You can see the side attached white double sided tape on my photo. This way it is squeezed between the carpet and the plastic. Mine haven't fallen yet for 2 years. And I like that it is hidden and nobody can see this ugly thing

Nice, how do you wire up the rear lights? Not the boot ones, the interior ones.
I removed the headliner and ran wires from the front interior light unit to the back. Quite easy to do

I do like the interior lighting upgrades got any photos in the dark of how much they light up the car?
I have an old video. Front are VERY bright, that's why I switched to Accord interior light unit. Now when I open the door only the small 3-led bulb at the center lights up. And all the 96 leds are on when I press the buttons. Rear ones are good too, but not as bright as the front ones.
And here are the boot lights, they are made of two hidden led strips

It's better to remove it and soak it in something like WD40 / degreaser or etc. That way you'll be sure it will be cleaned properly. I left mine overnight soaking. Sure some coolant will spray from the hoses when you remove the iacv but nothing to worry about.

Love them dials, can you get them in MPH?
Yes, they have a lot of options for the dials, speed range, rpm range, colors and etc. Check their website: http://moman.pl/eu/honda-civic-1995-2000-5d,27,144.html And they ship to UK.

Thank you guys appreciate the comments
Nice mods on that mate! Am deciding wether to UV paint my needles too to go with my plasma dials? ... Looks just like a little MB6 now!
I think it's a must. Otherwise the needles get kinda lost because of how bright the plasma dials are.

To set the idle follow the procedure in the manual:
The idle adjusting screw is on the throttle body:

Okay, here's my thread back. Most of you already know the car. It is a perfect example of how you can waste a lot of money transforming a MB3 in MB6+ when you can just get an MB6.. but where's the fun in that.
It was a bone stock MB3 with boring exterior and interior:

Yes, the first pic is the result of standard MG ZS 120 shocks and springs
There are no aftermarket suspension parts on the car. -
Check ignition timing with a timing light if it's not correctly set can rob a lot of power.

How is it different
The only difference between LHD and RHD headlights are the lense inside, this thing:
I recently binned two RHD lenses :/

Problem fixed, I'm an idiot
Fog brackets were switched, left for right and right for left. I'm surprised I was able to put them like that. But this resulted in more cutting than necessary. Fortunately you have to be very close to notice it.But Honda markings are stupid. Currently one side has fog and bracket with "L" marking for left matched with surround that has "R" marking for right ?!

Hmm, I'm not sure it will work with this MDF piece. You should remove the old inner plastic thing, you don't need it. On the door there are four holes for screws, see if you can drill holes in the MDF to match those on the door. I doubt it but give it a try. Or maybe drill new holes in the door to match the MDF. Here's how it looks on mine, but my MDF is specifically for my car.

personaly I love the stainless VTiS knob, only downside is a couple of times ive jumped in and burnt my hand on it when the car has been sitting in the sun lol
Yep, that's a major downside for me. Summers here are very hot and I don't have a garage. Every time I get in I can barely touch my steering wheel, I can't imagine what it would be like if I had a metal gear knob
And unfortunately most aftermarket gearknobs are metal. -
Put up photos buddy
Well okay, but I currently have only my phone to shoot. It's just the standard vti gear knob.
I looked for oem leather gear knob and I can't find any. I guess I have to put leather on my stock one.
I personally prefer the feel of the MB6 gearknob but its all down to preference.
Yep, that's true. I can see it as more comfortable if you grab the gear knob with your fingers. But I form a cup with my palm and it is more comfortable with more round gear knobs.
-
Recently I bought a MB6 gear knob. I have never seen it in person, but in pictures it looked good. When I received it I founds two problems.
First I thought it's leather, but it appears it only looks like that. It's the same material as the stock one. Is there an oem leather one at all, maybe EK4 ?
Apart from not being leather there is another problem, it's not comfortable. I didn't notice it at first but when I drove my friend's MB1 with the stock knob it felt more comfortable. Am I the only one feeling the same way ?
-
Again no luck
Now I think my VTI-S lip is in the way. I think I should remove the lip, put the surrounds and then put the lip back.. Otherwise I really don't think this could go in.
ch I can't believe those fogs are OEM. There is so much cutting involved. Bumper needs cutting, lip needs cutting..

Mines like that too. Stock wheel has a 45 degree hole, integra wheel has a hole in the bottom. Just rotate the srs reel so it matches the hole (don't mind the top sign). Don't worry the reel can rotate more than the wheel. If I remember correctly it could do two and a half rotations both sides.
I'm driving like that with no problems so far.
The Intgra srs reel is a bit different to match the steering wheel. I was thinking of buying one but there is no need for that..
