Forgot to say, it's a 2.0l petrol. No offence taken :-) At this price, I will most likely donate the car to my niece to replace her clapped out R plate Fiesta! I bought the accord as a stop gap anyway. It's done the job, and it's time to move on. Thanks.

Hi, Just looking for opinions on the value of my car as I wish to price it correctly comes the time to selling it in the coming month. Gen 7 accord Type S Silver 2003 2 owners (I am the 2nd owner since Feb 2012) Miles: 50,100 (rising slowly as been used) Full Honda service history (9 annual...

I wouldn't bother with EBC greenstuff pads <shudder. they are cheap for a reason>. If you want to stick with EBC, spend a little more for the yellowstuff which is a decent value / performance (few guys I know use them and all been fairly positive). Personally, I alway use OEM pads on my road...

If budget is no issue, Eibach. May cost you extra, but you should be able to order and specify the travel & spring rate to match your coilover/dampers and how you plan to use the car. Plus, they are renown for maintaining their rate over their life compare to less expensive brands.

Very nice install. I will happily pretend to be a kid and chill out on the back sat if I had this piece of kit! :D

Knightmare, Good idea to check on Goodridge website! :blush: Looks like they only supply for 2.4L, but I wonder if they are compatible for all Gen 7 models? Will drop them a mail to find out http://www.goodridge.net/documents/downloads/retail/UK/car_app_guide_2012_uk_rrp_stainless.pdf...

Hi I am planning ahead of a few servicing jobs, and brake fluid change is one. Additionally, I like to upgrade the standard hoses to SS braided hoses at the same time. I've been searching the Net, and only found Goodridge braided hoses for the 2.4L but none for the 2.0L...

Just a fyi, I have taken a snap of the tyre pressure sticker for a 2.0 petrol for future reference [/img]
