    1.12 down this way too. Great stuff
  5. Well passed its sell by date ! Nice to see this is still going .. Although, is that a second wet of fronts in less than a year?!?!
  6. Afraid its all about trial and error mate .. Could well be the top mounts on the coilover .. Or that they're worn internally (giggady) Could also be looking at lower/upper ball joints which are now knocking as the pressure is being applied at a different angle since lowering .. Could also be the upper suspension arms knocking the underside of the strut tower .. Need to get it off the ground and have a proper poke around, with a big as bar too to move the suspension around ..
  7. Looks alright ! They do look uber cool with chunky tyres and slammed !
  8. We're talking about the B18c4 here mate. Some of the other lesser engines do have their Lamba sensor in the cat. And no, it probably wouldn't help.
  9. Not debating your right mate .. Im just saying its such a tiny amount you'd never notice !
  10. Love the CRV mate .. Having said that, I drove past another step wagon yesterday
  11. Yeah but not a lot mate.. Come one we're talking tiny tiny proportions using lights raido etc ..
  12. HA I saw this on FB .. Didn't realize it was you ! Brilliant .. Certainly not seen before on an M before!
  13. Yeah noticed after I'd written it, couldn't be bothered to edit! No problem mate .. Hope to see you signed up !
  14. nice mate. How long you expecting them to be in there?
  15. Ok ... Firstly, you are right, here is all things civic (of the M variety) Secondly, can you fill in your profile properly please mate .. And onto your problem .. As you will find, there are multiple threads on the forum regarding the "two stage vtec", "two step" whatever or however you want to call it .. The vtec is engaged at 4500 rpm - this is the actual engine changing its characteristics (cam duration) and this is why you can still hear it .. The second stage, is the butterflies on the inlet manifold opening to 100% at 5800rpm .. The reason this sounds has probably gone is the noise of the exhaust ! lol .. Get a decent induction kit on there and it'll probably return.. Having said that, I have a 4-1 straight through 2.25" system and not a fancy intake (just 3" piping and cone) and I still hear mine without any issues .. And lastly, no, you don't need to worry about any sensor issues.. The standard cat never had one .. Just need to find a friendly MOT'er.. Also, might be worth resetting your ECU after this work .. Allow it to calibrate itself again .. If you don't know how, have a search, there are numerous threads ..
