bugger, your's must be one of the last built, if it's taxed on emmision's, i think it's about 180G/km, don't want to think about what a b16 would be 250G/km+... only just seen tom comment about the railway i work/play at... He plays with the real thing but smaller! have a look here, http://www.civic5.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=10427 the fun start's at the bottom of page one, the bit above it, is dark time's for me, but i'm slowly getting back on the straight and narrow....

wow, this looking brilliant, all you need is davemb2's running gear out of his K26 MB2.......

HNM isn't that a paint code and any way GLE incorprating RDS and HNM doens't really have a ring to it... speak to tom it's all his fault he started it...

yay, how many it that now tom? 10? and no you don't have to do or say anything to join the club, your number plate is all that matter's... Something like that phil, and most are decks! it seem's odd there are that many deck's ending in GLE, yet there not consectutive number's....

yay, how many it that now tom? 10? and no you don't have to do or say anything to join the club, your number plate is all that matter's...

your very lucky, at least you didn't rear end a truck or anything like that, and as for you hitting it in a saxo, i shudder to think what would of been the outcome, i'm assuming your gonna break it? i know the engine is shot, but the ancinary's may help member's, the dizzy for a start, alternator, the pas and ac pump may have not been so lucky. gearbox, drive shaft's etc, looking at the pic's i can't quite believe the N/S/F wing and front bumper seem not to have any visable damage on them thats fooking unreal if they don't have damage...

I'm sure he'll be along shortly. but i'm here first, on behalf of the GLE club, there is only one rule of entry, you car reg number must have GLE as the last 3 letter's, and as you have you hae automaticly qualified to join the club. as for the benifit's, well there isn't any tom may be able to help though so do you wish to join a club in a club? philgor (2nd known member of the GLE CLUB)

LoL tell me about it!! Just starting to get used to them now, but god knows what will happen when I drive Ruby again!!! lol lol know the feeling, the old mb1 was an autobox drove that for 18month's with very few manual's driven inbetween, made for a intresting test drive of stoatman's aerodeck that i bought. god know what he thought of my driving one thing i did find hard was 5th gear kept trying to find another gear after a week or so of getting used to the car and a manual box again it all fell back in to place. to stoatman's, i'm sorry for grinding the gear's on the deck when i test drove it but it had been a long time since i'd driven a manual in any sort of way for a long period.... and i do still the mighty deck... and your also right, trying to find a clean vti deck is hard work and you would of ended up traveling a fair way, i did lincolnshire to cheshire..

trade plate's for the win, but wow it sound's and look and goes awsome, have you had a play with anything on the road yet...

can't say yes and no, it depend's on what it is, basic diesel astra is shit, so give me a mk3 with a 1.7tds in it over any of these modern dpf fitted thing's don't get me wrong their quick give good mpg but still it hasn't any soul/feel it's the same as the ek9 vs a vxr corsa, a vxr corsa will produce 180 from straight start up, where as the ek9, you've got a wake and warm the beast up an then when the car is happy it will then let you give it the bean's.. and then there is the best of the best. an amg 63 merc, one of the best sound's on this earth from a standard car..

is it stable tom purse tests all action cameras at once brilliant tom look like he's enjoying him self...

asbo on a car that's a new one to me....

that's constructive! yeah, agree with one of the comment's but it aint the top one, and judgin by the user name, pugpug, he or she, either love's these, or as for the OP issue with it not turning over. and not firing up, my money is on the dizzy, well the ingniterin side the dizzy, at minium i'd replace that, but, tbh if the dizzy cap and rotor arm have no history or replacement, i'd get a recon/new one just to be safe, when i needed mine doing i went here http://www.ignitioncarparts.co.uk/Default.aspx i'd replace the lead's any way due to the condition their in and the park plug's as a matter of course.

used to live near boston, and my insurance wasn't too bad, due to being in the country side. back in grimsby, it added £300 to my insurance. got that down though...

fit the short shifter one the mid section is off, it's gonna be a hell of a lot easyier, the exhaust is in the way.... i struggled like hell to do mine with it on and i was on a ramp...

hmm, torque steer, that shouldn't happen as they have equal length drive shaft's, 5mm spacer's shouldn't affect it (got them on mine) did the wheel's need any spigot ring's on them? are there any knackered ball joint's? what are the tyre's like, are they the same size, make, model? is there the abnormal wear on the tyre's? wheel's ok, no buckle's etc? brake's worn evenly said to side, the disk's look ok? if all ok swap the wheel's side to side road test and see if it pull's to the left? if not swap front to rear and road test again, if that's doesn't work, (i'm assuming you have the old wheel's you took off the car to replace to the tsw's) put the old wheel's back on and try again?

oh sweet mother of jeasus, what a machine it's everything killer, wow you sir are a legend....

i'm sorry mike, i have to post this as a warning to all spammer's...

Sure it wasn't this one? ahah . They're a car you get attatched too, i'll give you that. I haven't had mine a year and I am already attatched to it. And yes, more the outskirts of the town though. Beelsby. You know where that is? Im near enough always down lady smith road. Supprised I have not seen it yet... nah not mine, mine was a mb1 1.6 ls in silver/grey, the reg was in fact this was my project thread for the old girl, http://www.civic5.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=141&t=7022

good solid base car you've got there, i had a pre facelift mb and that was a 1.6 automatic and that shifted surprised a few people with it as well, i still miss that car, but moved on to a vti aerodeck. see you live in grimsby, where about's are you? as i'm near lady smith road.

The female or the gash pink Scooby? the gash pink scooby of course, what a waste of a car...

wow, what a story, from being hrs to being scrapped to being transformed in to a mb6 beater, you sir deserve a pint for carrying on where many would of given up. good on ya and keep going.

good looking motor you got there, and some brilliant photo's you've got their not sure on the last one though...

ah but i'd like to point out that we know what tyre(s) he's running on it AVON ZZ3, good choice there mate, wanted some for mine but couln'd get any.

well if the ek doesn't have abs, and the dc2 doesn't have abs then it's just swap everything over, not done it my self, but with the front's i believe you can swap the hub's over complete with caliper disk etc, with the rear's i heard it's easier to swap the rear bearing over along with disk's/caliper/carriers/etc leaving the arm in place that way you only need to adjust the front tracking...
