  3. nice, bet it goes well with that thing under the bonnet......
  4. right, the mb3 (1.5) has an eco function, and require's the cat to get hotter quicker, hence why it was mounted on the manifold as a one piece design, where as all the other civic engine's exhaust's have the cat mounted under the car after the manifold to de cat it from what I remember, to decat it you just swap out the manifold for a normal manifold (standard or stainless manifold) im not sure what effect the removal of the cat would do to the engine management system. as for fitting a manifold, this could be the tricky part, you may be able to get away with just fitting a new manifold and adjustable de-cat, or it may end up replacing the full system....
  5. diesel accord's, not a brilliant engine from account's I've heard, clutch's can be big buck's as they take the flywheel out with it when it goes, been known for exhaust manifold's to crack, other than that, they seem to be ok, but it was Honda's first attempt at it's own diesel engine....
  6. You know what that car would look lovely with some dc2 wheels on, does any one know of any for sale? Nice one look really good nick
  7. are the tyre's on the right way round? as they may be directional....

  20. thought so, thank's for clearing it up...
  21. is this a bad time to say I've got 2k kicking around that I can't touch......
  22. don't suppose it was the o/s shaft was it, and it when while pulling off? as said quite common, as a rubber balancer sit's on the shaft halfway along.. and looked like this? if so get your car looked at as it's creating too much torque nah, it's quite common, that shaft came off a mb1 1.6 automatic, yeah serious about that. you can see where the balancer used to sit, it's some where on the A17 near Sleaford...
