  1. Well small measly update after just reading davemb2's update :lol: but hey! never the less

    . finally finished my cf badge tonight i will get this mounted tomorrow. Looks great dont know what happened in the pic though it looks distorted in the bottom corner of the 'H'.

    .Also found a (spoon, I think is fake) engine torque damper that a mate gave to me from his old delsol. I have had this lying around for ages so i might aswell fit it. Although i think im gonne remove the spoon etching. Surely the etching would be better quality if it was genuine?

    This is mine on LO 40mm springs doesn't scrape at all ( unless driven like a d**k of course) im impressed with them for the money although would benefit from uprated dampers. Will do this myself once i manage to save some more moneys :lol:

  3. Looks a pretty good base! as for the idle problem i had this, it turned out to be the throttle position sensor but i just changed to a known good throttle body with all sensors attached.

    You could always try reading the flash codes using the wire loop trick, i thing there,s a how to on here some where? Thats how i diagnosed mine.

  4. Bit of an update!

    I took the m over to my mates garage where me and ste got the rear quarters 98% finished and in 2k filler prime. really pleased with the result just a little more shaping to do, I also bought my top coat an laquer etc. I cant wait to paint it im sick of driving round in a multi coloured car already :lol:

    But hey ho, good things come to those who wait :mrgreen:

    Here are a few pics of the progress and various pics from its first weekend on the road in my ownership!

    Big thanks to ste and john!

    Sorry if i went abit ott on the pics :lol:

  5. ha yeh i do that on a regular basis :lol:

    Well... good news, i rebuild the brakes maing sure everything was really free and copper greased.

    At first try it would have failed but as the tester was abit of a honda nut himself and he told me to go for a hard drive stamping on the brakes, Then it passed with only 4% imbalance :D

    Happy days, i now have a years ticket!

  6. If you have read my build thread my m went in for the test today and failed on front brake imbalance 38%, i understand the pass requirement is 25%

    Has any one else ha this problem? if so how did you go about it?

    Also are the civic brake system x-linked so could it be a prob with say the rear right thats making the front left weak?

    I was thinking of cleaning up my front pads/d**ks, free up grease pistons,bleed one final time.

    Any thing else any info will be usefull as its in for the retest on saturday morning and i have other bit's and bats to do too.

    Ta guys!

  7. Yeh it is we did some welding on that too surprise surprise :lol:

    No i havnt really driven it since iv'e had it but there has been a boat load of work to do on it as you know. Ill just be glad when i get round to painting it and i can do nice jobs and clean it, I havnt cleaned it since iv'e owned it :roll:
