  1. i tried to take it off! but couldnt got the top 2 bolts off but the bottom one is seized shut and hard to get to aswell, will try again though and i plan on getting a new manifold soon
  2. ive been hard at work this morning, had a painting session. first i painted the 'h' on the steering wheel red then painted the dipstick handle red my rear wiper handle thingy not nice so give it a fresh coat its looking sleek now then the finally rocker cover! got a bit carried away with the pics
  3. the only ones are Motobuild ones no good for Hondas not enough engine weight the V6 is a heavy lump, you will have to look for Honda ones i take that back i should have known coz i looked, eibach your best bet as they developed the MGZS180 suspension so it would be sensible match. ok thanks! will just have to look out for some! ive been hard at work this morning pics will be up in a few minutes
  4. no wrong chassis i would fit them to yours let me have a look for you see what i can see, why you saying better safe then sorry something wrong with yours? ah ok nah better getting some good quality lowering springs than those cheap ebay coilovers! and yeh would be going to the mgzs shocks when i get them. those are not bad for 70 quid but i am a teenager and want more low minimum of 40mm thanks ill have a look for mgzs lowering springs aswell
  5. yeh suppose better safe than sorry, im just not sure on fitament, would these fit? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Civic-H ... 1c23f3f66f
  6. haha i like to work fast hopefully it does fit as it will look awesome! im keen on getting one myself Going to start a trend now!! well if it does im just declaring that i found it first
  7. yeh easier said that done i would get something different but i dont want to spend hundreds on lowering springs, but im definitely getting the mg zs shocks and springs and see how it goes from there.
  8. ok thanks im taking all this information on board and was thinking of getting these adjustable coilovers off of ebay you just put them on some shocks and you have adjustable suspension http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/350396592028? ... 1436.l2649 im just not sure how to install them would they be similar to lowering springs when installing?
  9. yes i think i will get the shocks and springs, word around the forum they seem to be a really good upgrade! yeh im interested in the arb pm me
  10. thanks i know makes such a difference, i actually got the idea from your mb3 project! haha
  11. nah thats cool mate im not in any hurry, looking into getting a haynes manual off of eBay, also think its worth getting the mg zs shocks and springs? i know it will be an upgrade but will it sit any higher or lower? will these fit? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MG-ZS-FRONT-S ... 1e6aae5dfe thanks again
  12. great thanks but i think ill wait for the how to before i try anything just in case think i might just manage to change the leads on my own
  13. im now set on changing my leads, plugs and dizzy thanks to jimbob haha obviously i know how to change the leads but could someone enlighten me on changing the dizzy is it hard? and jimbob you still doing that how to on the plugs when you change yours? cheers
  14. ha ive always wanted a nova, good experience with them?
  15. got rid of nearly all the chrome on my mb2 now! the only thing left to de-chrome is the headlights but dont think i could manage it
  16. yeh i saw a how to on repairing the individual resistors but ive never soldered anything so didnt fancy starting on that. one question about painting the rocker cover, when i take it off can i blast it with a hose on the inside to clean off all the oil on it? will i have to re oil it? i know how to strip the paint and re paint it, just not sure about how to clean it. yes mate you can clean the inside but it would be easyer to clean it with degreaser and then hot water and washing up liquid (fairy) if poss ? ok so its fine to just clean it great! i dont have any degreaser so will have just give it a good scrub, but wont be doing it today as its started snowing
