How to display your photos in a post. NOTE: For uploading photos direct to the forum, the limit is 5mb per post. So 1 photo that is 5mb, or two photos that are 2.5mb each and so on. You can easily add photos to your post! When creating a topic, Look at the bottom left corner of the box. You will see "Attach Files". Click the "choose files" button next to it to upload your photos from your computer to the forum. Then next to each uploaded photo, click the "add to post" button. Simples! If on the other hand you have photos stored on a site like photobucket etc that you want to show, you can do it the following way. Your photo will be given various URL's (links) by photobucket etc, Its these links that you need, as these are what you post on the forum. The forum will then recognize the link as a photo/image link, and display your photo here on the site. Ok, now the instructions. 1. Choose the photo you want to show. 2. Upload the photo to a photo hosting site, such as http://www.photobucket.com (you may have to register on whatever site you choose to host your photos.) 3. Once logged into your photo hosting site, you will see a list of "URL's" (links) next to your photo. The one you need is the "Direct link" (Photobucket images only) 4. Copy the "Direct link" url of your photo, and paste it into your post on civic5. 5. Done!! That was easy!

Hello One and All, I am a brand new member living near to Bath, UK and have always been hugely enthusiastic about motorcars and Japanese Motorcycles. I hesitate to rush in where angels fear to tread, but am I permitted to enquire about another Make and Model, where parts no longer available/hard to source reliably may be interchangeable with, say, a Honda Civic? Front brake caliper carriers for example?

I've been looking at all ways to swap my engine with obd1 B series I was told my car was obd2b can't remember who or where think it was Facebook, so I ordered jumper harness obd1-obd2b but looked at my ecu and it only has 3 plugs as does the obd1 part of the jumper! But my dizzy has one big plug so I'm sure that's obd2? I thought I had it all ready to go and swap it soon but now I'm even more confused, anyone help please thanks

Hi guys, just picked up my mb6 and I noticed on the test drive and drive home that it's stiff selecting gears. I thought it was maybe the bottom bolt on the short shifter being tight but I just checked and it's ok. It has a short throw as expected but just stuff selecting gears. Any ideas?
