Good point, il double check this evening

[poly bush's]

hi all, looking to make the honda a  tad stiffer (insert p***s jokes)

ive fitted zs 180 shocks and springs, much better, but for instance, when i push/rock the car side to side i feel it wobbles too much.

 

whats recomended? 

 

il be using the car for road rallies, so a mix of rough forest/farm tracks and country lanes

[CRV gearbox ratio swap]

heres the info on ratios ive found.... 

 

crv                                s9b

1st 3.5                          3.230

2nd 1.956                     1.900

3rd 1.344                      1.360

4th 1.071                      1.034

5th .812                         .848

fd  4.562                       4.266

 

i dont know much about ratio's except, the higher the fd the quicker the exceleration.

 

i can pick up a whole crv for £100

 

these ratios are from 98-01 years crv's

been looking in to the CRV gearbox, i  see they have a 4.5 FD, and second and third gears seem better than the s9b.

question is, are the gears interchangable with the s9b?

[b18c4 freshen up questions]

hi all, just sorned the civic for some much needed tlc. i have many plans for it, such as roll cage, bucket seats, lighten, blank sunroof, remove abs and ac, bake lines and fuel lines in car, hydraulic handbrake and maybe a few more.................. 

but, i want to freshen up the head, burns a bit of oil.

do i need new head bolts or reuse old ones?

anything i can do with the head off to gain a little? 

is there a how to guide somewhere on head rebuild/ torque setting etc ?
