    Quick photo from last night. Looking forward to the suspension refresh and getting this thing slammed. Other news - carpet and some dash trim is out ready for welding.

    Cheers mate, I used something like this: https://ebay.us/m/UdfDvf You could probably find one cheaper on aliexpress or something though. Only downside was I had to Grind down the part that sat on the inside of the car. The hole in the internal boot skin is slightly too small for it. If i remember correctly I put a bolt through it and put it in a drill. Then used a file while it spun, basically a diy lathe haha.
  7. Can confirm these are direct replacement to the existing big fogs. You might need to swap the plug over however. If I remember correctly the front seal wasn't great so I used a big o-ring between the glass and the front screw on cap piece to keep the water out

    Cheers mate, will be glad when I've got the painting finished.. currently the bane of life haha. Process so far has been - - wire wheel strip on grinder - soak in deox-c - wash (kitchen sink while wife is out) - coats of hydrate 80 - epoxy primer - top coat Now totally sick of sanding and painting haha. Forgot to mention I've also got a 24mm front arb and 18mm rear arb to fit, along with a modified rear subframe brace for a eg. Excited to get all this fitted and wrapped up

    Jesus how time flies! Hope youre all keeping well! Funny reading the thread back and trying to remember what I've done haha. The interiors getting there.. got some new seats fitted and the interiors been stripped somewhat. Still need to sort the headlining and wrap the pillar trims. Basically de-beiging the car!! In the meantime I think i also fitted a new exhaust.. basically most of a xpower janspeed system from a zs180. Sounds mega, need to get a flyby done at some point. I've got a full set of polybushes to fit also, just need to finish refurbing all the arms etc for them. Rust treating and painting seems to take forever! Cheers, Dan
  12. Hi Ben, The calipers in the photo are for the 260mm front brakes, not the larger 280mm front brakes. Manufacturer caliper numbers for the larger calipers are LCA333 & RCA333. You can use eBay to get the oem numbers from them. Basically the calipers are the same for the mg zs180, mg zr160 & accord of that era, but the carriers differ i believe (ive not checked any fit on an mb other than a zs). I can confirm that the calipers and carriers from the zs180 will fit onto a mb2 4x100 as thats what I'm currently running! If youre upgrading the brakes you'll need to change the master cylinder and prop valve if you don't have abs for it to work properly. My setup is: Honda Civic MB6 brake master cylinder Honda Civic MB6 brake servo Honda 40/40 brake prop valve (46210-S5A-912) Wezmoto Braided front and rear brake lines (700mm front / 560mm rear) MG ZS 180 Front & Rear brake calipers MG ZS 180 Front & Rear brake discs Cheers, Dan
  13. Ideal glad you got it sorted!
  14. Hello mate, not sure if you've got this sorted - you can use this site and put in your vin number. Then find the right drawing and it should tell you the part number https://www.parts-honda.uk/honda-cars/search_vehicle/chassis
