  1. I think 14" BBS style wheels suit decks quite well with a bit of poke UPDATE!! And a good one too! Fitted an 4-2-1 Japspeed manifold yesterday which I'm "borrowing" from a mate whilst his Civic goes through the MOT with a cat. Hopefully I can persuade him to sell it to me as it sounds AMAZING! Sounds like a proper Honda! But unfortunately she has been overheating in the last couple weeks. Before you ask me what I have done to diagnose this, I have literally done everything. Checked fan (fan is constantly on, new thermostat, bled the cooling system numerous of times, done a coolant flush, compression test, checked everything over... you name it. So the only thing I can think of is the head-gasket is on it's way out. Going to order a new head-gasket tomorrow along with replacing the valve-stem oil seals. Plus a head-skim
  2. That looks good. The only downside of OEM wheels they hide in the arches usually. You're gonna think I'm mad but.. I like small wheels on slammed cars
  3. I forgot you had fanblades haha. I'm refurbishing my mates fanblades for his EK. Quite tempted to try em on my car
  4. So, this happened today.. The alloys had very bad lacquer peel so I am in the process of giving them a quick rub down. Also very bored of the alloys, I might put them up for sale or swaps. Seeing as Honda fanblades are cheap, I really fancy a set of them!
  5. I thought you would take that as a joke @Krzys With air-con, the glovebox have to come out to remove the pollen filter Without air-con, you literally just rip the filter out from the footwell
  6. I feel pretty dumb for thinking that. Considering I am a mechanic 😂
  7. Oh wow, Meister R's!! Why aren't they fitted yet?!! Some good work mate ðŸ‘
  8. Ah that's good. Rust is a killer... Rust is like car cancer lol I noticed the heaters are getting pretty weak. I didn't think it still has a pollen filter even though it haven't got air-con from standard?
  9. Cheers lads! One of the things I have always been OCD of keeping the seals, arches and under the whole car as clean as possible. Also preventing any rust. There is not one bit of rust on this Aerodeck now (even though it done just over 170'000 miles) Only rust there is on the bottom radiator stay and bottom tow eyes
  10. Not sure, but I am hoping to respray and fit it before Japfest myself Thanks man, I love how it sits! I hope to do this asap seeing as I got spare bulb holers from the the other Aerodeck Thanks mate. The only time it scrapes is when I go over this one speed bump weekly. It only catches the bottom tow-eyes. I had the car up on the ramp at work last night for a visual check. The Aerodeck haven't caught anything. Even the underseal still looks fresh!
  11. 😶 No, It just takes that long to reply... lol
