the previous owners' negligence seems to have caught up with mine I'm afraid, I could have bought plastic fender flares and just cut the rot out, but the mk7 is already kind of flared from factory you didn't see the garage in said mirror? ;) **** happens though, be glad you caught it early...

only HID lamps self level, EU/EAA regulation. they must also have washer nozzles. I have been curious about the same thing as it seems too slow, but perhaps the manual control has a regulator. searching for info about the US TSX is no help as they are not required to have self leveling HID's...

nothing wrong with field surgery if it halts the progression until you can do more about it I have had that experience with a tannic acid based wurth rust converter if applied too thick. the surface will seal and harden, but the underlying layers remain tacky. apply filler or primer, sand that...

she's from just outside sheffield if you'll believe me lol looking at lowering mine after buying new wheels, what springs are you on? any problems with heat soak after either stage of remap? highly recommend the type r calipers but now that i know what they feel like, I already want a larger...

yeah, you would still need to buy the carriers for a 300mm setup as the slide pin setup and pad design is completely different also correct, but whether the ATR caliper fits the ATS carrier or vice versa is completely uncharted territory. they are both akebono systems but the pad design...

I don't know about you folks, but I love my Accord, I'm even proud of it. I don't always have time to give it the care it needs or deserves, but I try my best! So for all of us that try our best, what have you done to your Accord lately? Modification, repair, servicing, detailing or just good...

I second this notion. PSA time after two years of putting off dealing with mine, I took the plunge earlier this week to find that the inner arch was rusted through on both sides. the outer arch and fender had only minor surface rust given the age of the car it has to be a weakness on these cars...

Fantastic initiative taken and great result as well! This means it is possible to source brand new/refurbished parts for anyone interested in going this route, no more hunting scrapyards and eBay listings Of course it is biltema red :D but it is as good as anyone elses red

agreed, grew up in swedish bricks like the 145 and 245 but I had no interest in cars until we bought a 96 ce2, complete game changer, practical, but it just kept wanting to rev high and be driven with some spirit, massive aftermarket for parts and just as easily maintained or modified as...

It is, but I have not been able to find a part number for replacement springs so it might be easier to drop in a complete ***embly, new or used and not have to worry about alignment Acuity instruments sells stiffer springs for k series transmissions but the selector as a whole is...

the centering springs in the selector ***embly are highly unlikely to get gunked up but it is a serviceable part, if you're in the area you can also check the selector/shifter levers and bushings for play on the way down into the box

you are overthinking this :p whether the disc grows or shrinks 3mm, the spacing between the rear of the disc and the bracket remains the same when the total height of 47.2mm is unchanged. IF and when the total height is unchanged, the ONLY way it can grow in thickness, is to grow towards the...

yes, that is correct. the euro r/tsx variant has the correct center cutout as well as the correct 47.2mm total height correct, but you are not limited to legend calipers or pads, nor are you limited to the type r discs. I could stay with my stock 25mm thick discs but I chose to upgrade to 28mm...

hope it all works out in the end! it should bolt straight up. I have ordered type r 300x28mm discs myself and they are dimensionally identical to the stock cn2 300x25mm except for the 3mm difference in braking surface thickness and the center hub cutout is 70mm whereas stock is 64.2mm. total...

that's a great find! I would not worry about the necessity of milling 3mm off the mounting surface, the builder is using 25mm thick discs, the acura RL and accord type R use 28mm thick discs, he is simply centering the disc in the carrier by compensating for the thickness difference elsewhere...

Honda HDS/HIM (Honda Diagnostic System - Honda Interface Module) is what you're looking for

so I've just shoved new pistons into my type r calipers after painting, and for anyone looking to do this, through trial and error there is a trick to fitting the dust boot. I read @F6HAD's post about his experience of wifely aid simplifying the process, but I soldiered on stubbornly on my own...

bildelsbasen.se has acura rl quad piston calipers off a honda legend if you want to go all the way and get a conversion bracket :) https://www.bildelsbasen.se/se-sv/Honda/HONDA-LEGEND/2007_2021/Bromsar/Bromsok/H%C3%B6ger-fram/ID-43476773/...

correct, but it would depend on the trim level, as some trims are equipped with larger brakes than base. the pads don't care about the number of pistons in your brake caliper, it is the carrier that decides compatibility. do note that some of the compatible models below may use a 260mm disc no...

calipers are quite easy to source, refurbished or brand new, but carriers are not sold separately, but rather come bundled with calipers when ordered direct from honda. it is not cheap, I was quoted £360 per side for type r calipers and carriers here in norway your other option is to play the...
