Sounds complicated but if you can get it working, muchos kudos. It's worth thinking about what Zoy did, remove the dash vent and slam it in there, looks mint.

Result, glad you found one and that's very cheap.

Yes, if the speed drops low enough 2nd is never going to cut it, a quick blip and slot into 1st wins the day.

VTi lip looks nice, love how clean this is.

I'm not keen on the red rings either, red H looks good though and the grill's nice work.

The rover dash does look more modern, as above was the climatronic difficult to sort?

Excellent news. Good luck with the move.

True but that only bothers me in full take off mode, usually 2nd and 3rd gear rolling acceleration is what gives the grin factor. I think you'd probably need the double valve springs to help it make that rev limit safely.

Months wages gone then?

Very good.

I'm not jealous at all. *Edit: I say that and then think about who paid for my suspension last year.

9krpm would be good but as you said before that crossover is part of the fun.

Good to hear.

Very, that should brighten things up.

If the water is coming in the back like that, I'd suspect the tailgate seal. Nice one on the DC2 box, I can't believe the state of the pollen filter box though.

Lighter parts thus more free revving?

How about you accidentally bought some new suspension. "Sorry dear, fancy a McDonalds?"

From Honda £280 each side.

Really? Where from?

Which are you talking about the cheapo coilover spring kits or panther lowering springs? The coilover spring sets fit over your original shocks and will put them under strain and at risk of dislocation I believe. I would rather use lowering springs but I'd use ones I'd heard of. Koni strt kits are available for £280 which is a better bet or MGZS 180 shocks can be found for around £80, they won't lower it much but they are a major improvement over standard and if you match them with some lowering springs they are a nice setup if a bit hard. If you buy ibiza coils for an astra they won't fit because they will be a different design and the spring rates will be wrong.

I paid £110 for mine just over 2 years ago, so they've gone up a bit. I'm a bit confused though as that's a pair for a Supra which you would think would be more expensive. See what Jake can come up with and give him a shout if there's no joy there. Here's the original thread by the way: http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/topic/774-fully-recondictioned-rear-calipers-for-a-mb6/

No, diversification. I believe he's set it up to distinguish from the RR specialist tag.

I have several years practice aiming an imaginary stream so no problem there. If only they were available on ebay, I've thought about murder but when you ask people for their tissue type they seem to get suspicious. Hoping for 15-20 years this time, last one was just under 12.

It looks a lot like a photoshop creation.
