  1. I'm pretty sure it's on hondavert... I need to sit down and go through everything I've got as I keep forgetting stuff lol But I've ordered a walbro 255 now, even if its not that, it'll be an improved over the 20 year old d16 pump
  2. Just purchased a k20 aerodeck, when you start it from cold you have to prime the fuel pump twice as its still got the standard pump in. So when you key on, it doesn't prime the fuel enough so means it cranks over for longer, but if your key in and off twice, then it builds enough. Am I right in thinking king if I fit a walbro 255 pump then it'll be able to prime enough on the first key? As its a bigger, more power pump Thanks in advance

    arb query for mc1

    Yeah its weird that, I can understand the vtis getting them and not the non vtis, but I can't see why the areodeck vti didn't get one. That's baffling lol
  4. Does anybody know if you can fit the mg zs 180 rear arb to civic mc1 (non VTI aerodeck)? i woud have thoughtso, but id noticed that they dont come with the rear subframe brace or front strut brace, and the mounting points arent there to even fit one?

    Still too soft

    I have an aerodeck vti and when I bought it, I decided instantly it was too soft and handled like a barge. So I managed to find an mg zs 180 rear arb and ordered a set on eibach springs. Once it was all fitted the car does seem alot better, but it's still really soft. I don't think the dampers have had it, I just think there too soft. After reading, I keep seeing about the zs180 shocks, but it says they'll lower the car another 15mm (which is don't want it any lower, just firmer). Butni keep seeing people say get the zs120. So I'm confused and can't find a definite answer. So keeping my current eibach springs, which would be better, Zs180 or zs120 dampers? Thanks.
  6. Finally! i have a wheel bearing that fits! never thought i could be so excited about a wheel bearing haha thanks Boon
  7. Ah I ordered 2 bearings last night off of that autodoc.... and I've just re checked and yeah, both part numbers were in the cross references.. so hopefully they'll be right... I might keep the second as a spare
  8. Thanks pal, this helps alot... I rang honda and they gave me this part number (42200 s30 951) and I've ordered one that cross references with that, but I'll search for one using your part number, I'll end up with about 10 at this rate haha... aslong as only 9 need to be sent back then that'll do haha
  9. How long ago was this pal? I've tried most places and they say it's either a discontinued bearing or they say they've got it, but it turns out to be wrong. I really don't know what to do now, I was going to 4x100 convert it but it seems the spindle stub length is different, so that won't work.. and prelude ones I've found look right, but the measurements they give in the description doesn't seem right... I want to stay 4x114 ideally as I've just had my wheels refurbished.
  10. Unsure if this has been answered, but i have a mc2 and one of the wheel bearings has gone. After buying 4 so call "4x114" wheel bearings, which turned out to be 4x100, i have gve up and decided to convert the rear wheels to 4x100 as its alot cheaper and parts are actually available. I dont want to convert to 5x114 as its a pricey upgrade and i like my 4x114 wheels (im going to use 4x100 to 4x114 adaptors). My question is though, what discs do i buy? obviously i need 4x100 260mm discs, i know the mgzs 180 discs are 4x100 and 260mm, but i do they fit the standard MC2 rear calipers, as on mtech brakes, they show a 1mm difference in offset between the mg and mb6. thanks in advance.

    MC2 ARB Query

    Sorry if this sounds like a broken record, ive been doing loads of searching and cant seem to find exactly what im looking for. Just picked up my aerodeck and found that people say to fit the mgzs 180 rear arb (20mm), as this is a straight bolt on part. But, if one of these cant be found, is there any other straight bolt on arb? ive read the DC2 isnt as the bushes are in a different place and so is the ek. When looking on any parts website, when you go to the car select, they never list the civic mb/ mc chassis so it makes it a little hard to find parts. again, sorry if this has been asked a thousand times.
