until it was remapped my old Accord diesel felt gutless compared to the *** diesels i'd driven before refinement however was it a different league

Hello all I've not been on here much recently but I'm still enjoying my Accord Type S that I've had for almost a year ! (Fahad will tell you that is a record!!) Its a 55 plate with a mere 45k miles on the clock, in great condition) and although I wish it was a 2.4 (its the 2.0) its a real...

it didn't work :( Fortunately Boston Honda were brilliant and have changed the Master cylinder under warranty for me :)

my creak is back so lasted about 3 weeks :( will try again with a better quality grease and see if that works...

lol !! I painted them yesterday - and guess what ? I did them in Silver !

someone has fitted Civic type S alloys to an Accord - cant remember who but there are probably photos in the members gallery

thanks folks :) those purple ones sure are nice but I think I might play it safe and go silver...

are you sure its a DA polisher ? - not just a cheapy polisher like the ones you can get from halfords ? As above my Kestrel DA cost over £100..

anyone got pics ?!

Hello Next job for me on the Accord is too paint the rusty brake calipers - what colour would be best with a silver car, I know red is the most obvious but not sure if it would look a bit 'too much' Any silver Accord owners painted there calipers red and care to share a photo ? ta

'Put it this way, if you push a 2.0 it will get worse mileage than driving a 2.4 sensibly.' Nothing like stating the obvious ! Surely its more of a comparison if you push a 2.0 and a 2.4 !!!! It was the tax that put me off the 2.4 - £250 is bad enough...

I've had a 7th gen diesel and now own a 7th gen 2.0 petrol Type S So far I am very pleased with the 2.0 - it doesn't feel underpowered, in fact its quicker than I thought it would be. Performance wise I'd say its similar to the diesel, you have to use the rev's more but it is quite torquey...

thanks mate - thats great I can hold a spanner and jack a car up but I'm still not sure - i have read somewhere about it being dangerous !

The cheapest that I can find Eibach springs is form Motorsport World for £157 How much should fitting cost - can anyone recommend anywhere near Derby ?!!

well it will have to be springs then - Eibachs seem to be the best so I'll go for those - next question can anyone recommend a fitter and how much should I be looking to pay ? thanks
