    Brakes bleeding

    I had the same issue after rebuilding mine .it took ages to bleed there's probably air trapped in your abs module .bleed it with the engine running aswel to get maximum effort then go for a spin and try to cycle through the abs a few times then repeat .that solved my issue it took ages to bleed .also be mindful of worn brake pads and discs if they are worn you'll have excessive pedal travel .I changed my front discs and pads and it improves the pedal travel alot
  2. Sorry to revive this thread but I've got the same issue he ball on the aerodeck stock shifter is like 32mm wide and the aftermarket ones are 35 same as an ek/eg.what did people do to resolve the issue
  3. Burnt valve? When did u last adjust the valve lash

    Burnt sparkplug?

    That's completely normal. Stick with standard ngk plugs, cheap cheerful work perfect and just change them more often
  5. As far as I know eg, ek ones are all the same. I have eg ones in mine at the moment and they fit fine

    Headgasket :(

    Lol I regularly make sambos on my rocker cover so could have had a spillage ha ha. Car just passed nct (Ireland attempt at MOT) lol emissions were spot on and the car hasn't overheated since, stupid thing time to bin the D and insert B lol

    Headgasket :(

    That was the first thing I done was change the thermostat flush the system and fresh coolant and rad cap. Was looking at them co2 testers on YouTube there today think I'll grab one during the week and do a test

    Headgasket :(

    No haven't tried any sealers, I'm kinda against them lol from what I've came across in work of what they do to the inside of an engine block I'm not to keen on them

    Headgasket :(

    Think I've got the beginning of a headgasket leak, car never over heats unless driven really hard but will however fill the expansion tank so I'm guessing I've got a leak from a cylinder into coolant passage. Odd thing is I commute the car every day in bad traffic and it never overheats, doesn't use coolant runs perfect it's very strange compared to other bad head gaskets I've seen. I've changed the thermostat and rad cap so far and hasn't helped. Also compression tested it and got 200psi across all 4 cylinders so I'm stumped lol. Should I change the water pump or bite the bullet and do the head work
  11. Also forgot to document my headlight mod, split and sprayed and removed the orange plastic reflector thing and removed the clear reflector from the indicator housing
  12. Grabbed some quick pics today between showers, pardon the terrible photography I'm pretty s**t with a camera lol
  13. Thanks lads appreciate it. Will get pics ASAP. Was fitting new cv boots today and went to re do the upper Control arm to the knuckle and the ball joint stud snapped while I was tightening it. Wouldn't mind it's only a month or two old and was only tightening with a small spanner. The joys of Chinese parts I suppose
  14. Only pic I've got so far been busy gonna try take a drive somewhere scenic and get some decent pics at some stage this week

    coilovers

    Don't bother with any coilovers that arnt specifically for an aerodeck as the rear shocks are different heights an ek shock is a lot shorter than the aerodeck one so even with the coils as high up as they go the rear end will be dumped on its arse with no adjustment
  16. I've got no patience and no money ha hahaha
  17. Spent all day today sanding painting and fitting the kit will get some pics tomorrow, nearly cut the tip of my thumb off and I think I've got sunstroke lol . Was hard work but worth it. Also found it hilarious at how many different colours the kit was. Originally silver then red then red then pirates black then some sort of plasti dip orange lol
  18. I wasn't always as in love with the wheels but they've grown on me a lot, anything with a dish looks well on an aerodeck And I was very very nervous fitting the Spoiler and I'm fairly experienced in mechanics. And let's just say honda Ireland are not really up to par with their mechanical skills so I opted to try it myself lol besides in all the times I've had to visit the main dealer not one mechanic or sales even knew what a deck was lol
  19. Thanks lads . The elusive mg zs anti roll bar, just fitted 4 new rainsport 3's and the anti roll bar, handling has transformed completely car corners a lot better stays flat throughout the twisties
  20. 5 doors in vti trim are fairly non existent over here, there are countless 5 doors in 1.4 variant but nobody mods them. My first m was a 1.4 in pirates black with only 30k miles in absolute mint condition
  21. Some pics of my mid Spoiler fitting escapade lol
  22. Said I'd start a thread to document bits I'm doing to the aerodeck. Anyways picked up my titan silver 2001/y reg mc1 aerodeck has the 1.6 single cam vtec d16w4. Always wanted an aerodeck seen one when I was about 12-13 and I was in love. As they were never sold in Ireland they are fairly rare over here I've seen less than 10 in my lifetime. Anyways here's some pics and spec D16w4 bog standard except whale p***s and decat 8j bbs rs reps Suspension was running tein superstreets from an eg but when back to the oem setup as was to low and just unfunctional K sport rear camber arms Limo tints and front visor 8000k hid kit. Full vti half leathers Ek9 steering wheel Team heko wind deflectors Full sound system new speakers and door tweeters Just picked up a full vtis lip kit and mid Spoiler Wich should have fitted soon
  23. She's on boys thanks for all the help now to fit the rest of the vtis kit
  24. I'm the same if I f**k it up I'll cry if I done it at all uneven it would bug the life out of me. I'm thinking I might cover the area in masking tape and offer up the Spoiler and get a mate to hold it and step back and measure up and see how it looks then trace the outline onto the masking tape with a pencil and measure exactly where the holes are and somehow transfere that to the car ha ha
  25. I know this had been covered but just spent the past 40 mins searching and can't find the thread, anyways picked up a vtis mid Spoiler for me deck and don't want to fit it wrong as I can't see any dimples on the rear of the tailgate like other Hondas, how did people go about marking up and fitting? Thanks in advanced
