tbh Uniroyal rs2 are a very soft tyre, ideal as a winter tyre, but not suited to summer, put mine on in October, at 150k, now on 157 and at about 4mm. I like them they grip really well but, Christ they are soft, the side wall is only 1 ply, where as most other tyre's are 2 ply.

but still there is no reason why 2 tyre's inflated to the same pressure should give you 2 different reading when they have been subjected to stress and heat for the same time.

I was also toying with this,, a 60 ton road train, with a 525bhp 14 litre cummin's engine, and a upright exhaust stack... did I mention the booze it is carrying.... or if that went over your head, this http://youtu.be/OT8Eh7BBqOQ

best trick in the book that is, if your on your own, I find taking the track rod end off give's you that extra turn on the hub to get the shaft out, also work's on the a6 /a8 etc, but anything with a vag group engine and box, to take the shaft out, you just undo, 6 torx bolt's and the shaft will drop out...

my ocd mot side coming out, here, but you may want to check the rotation on your front tyre's, as they look like they are on wrong....

it might be worth seeing if you can adjust when the fan kick's in, different fan switch with a lower temperature setting, is there anyway of opening up the front bumper to let in more air flow?

your best off replacing the exhust manifold with a stainless steel version, a lot cheaper than trying to source an oem part, http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0&_nkw=honda+D-series+exhaust+manifold&_sacat=0&_from=R40

New exhaust time I have this with mine, It's 1 of 2 thing's or both like mine is! 1 I found where the exhaust's first bent to take it away from the fuel tank, mine was rubbing on the heat shield there and rattling 2 the cat's heat shield mounting bolt's have rotted away and the shield is now loose so rattling away..

2x original keys and fobs and one RED
philgor replied to skitzma8's topic in Body/Electrics/Interior
IIRC they wont be able to replace a missing red key, it's a one and only key as it's the master key coded to the ECU, the only way to get another red key is to find an ECU with the red key and all of the matching lock's, you can match the ignition lock only, but you would end up with 2 different key's for the car. what I'd do it is take the ECU out and send it off to have the immobiliser taken off, and then have an aftermarket alarm/immobiliser/remote central locking system fitted.. -
2x original keys and fobs and one RED
philgor replied to skitzma8's topic in Body/Electrics/Interior
a previous owner of my car got a replacement fob from Honda, and well it was the best part of £300 just for the fob, I should say getting a lock kit from Honda would set you back over £1000 as it would require, ECU, all the lock's (4 of..), 2 black key which are coded, the red master key to code all the other's, and the fob and receiver. I dunno but I think a good lock smith's would be able to cut and code another key but it don't know... -

yeah they seem to forget about the domani, which was launched in 1992, as the MA4/5/6/7, and then it was rehashed in to a hatchback for the european model (as honda thought a hatch would be a better seller) which was launched in 1995 and the rover 400's were launched in late 95/early 96 and the rover 400/416 auto used a honda D16Y3 engine... and one thing that make me chuckle, is "get a proper honda" yet when it come's to engine conversion's, the civic vti mb6/mc2 (which arn't proper honda's) seem's to be a popular vehicle to have the engine out of it.....
