i turned the nut and it freed up very easily but its still stuck in that position

lk forward to pic cheers

well heres another prob i have and its a common for me with the civics ive had but this will be the first time ive sorted it myself. handbrake is obviously nacked, rear brakes work fine under normal braking, piston moves in and out but after a little inspection earlier i noticed that the lever...

think ive pinpointed it to a seal leak as the drive shaft goes into the gearbox. the oil is making its way down then trickling along a little the where it can be seen in the photo.may also explain why it leaks when driving.

100% sure

cheapo coil sleeves. ive also found out that its only leaking when driving?? ill be getting a better look today.

ive not had a time to investigate it a bit more. i think ill need to clean the surrounding area, check shaft and try and find the source. ive got springs, taylored mats and new bulbs and leds on they way so this is the last thing i need lol.

noticed ive been losing trans fluid and found a leak. ive took a picture to show you guys. from what i can see it may be a driveshaft seal? thanks

I could make the holes 3mm wider that would give me a total of 114 if I used the 108 patern but would need to move the taper aswell. The wheels are hubcentric so hole position isnt critical as the hub centres the wheel.

Yes. There are a few ways like elongating the holes and adaptors but it looks like the safest way would be to drill the hubs with a pcd of 100 and fit the lugs into the new holes then fit the wheel as normal. Did you drill that alloy? Look like a quarter of the hole was driller on a taper.

How did you use the wobble bolts? Mines has the bolts pretudiing from the hub. Also looks like the hub could be drilled and tapped. Much safer.

I recently got a set of wheels for free. I used to refurb wheels and decided to refurb them and sell them but a realy think they would look good on the accord. There multifit 4x100 4x108 and I know they don't fit but I've been looking at the other options I have including wobble nuts but wobble...

cheers ;)

i know its a cheap nasty way to lower your car and sacrifice comfort but i was wandering if anybody has any experience with these with regards to fitting mainly and if they go straight on. thanks

is it easy to remove the wood effect trim on the doors for spraying? cheers
