search for my how to thread on fitting HIDs. I dropped my front bumper down to allow more access and hide everything away from sight as there really is no room to put the ballasts in the engine bay. it takes 2hrs from start to finish for a complete novice and really is an easy job. I don't...

she's nice :)

that was me who ran that deal :). unfortunately though I was not overly impressed with the deal that they where able to offer us as a forum so after that initial group buy they no longer retained my business. I know this sounds odd but search eBay for the cheapest slimline ballast HID in the UK...

I dunno bro... is there enough bro's in here to enable you to do this mod ... bro... I hope so bro as I bet bro bro bro.. :lol: loving the chat in here ! :D

c8 circ has a metal circle attached to the bishop.. then this bush is press fit in to the arm. it's not a bad design and it's used lots tbh... I would also have double wishbone suspension over boggo cheap suspension anyday

IIRC. the skirts for the estate / saloon are different and cannot be used on the other car. I may be wrong though.

As Jon has said... if yours is a pre facelift then get the shorter belt fitted and remove the unused idler pulley

This is a guess but I would imagine there is a timing issue on the exhaust cam as others have suggested.. low power / high fuel consumption means loss of compression somewhere ... Get a compression test done as lets see what the results are :)

Has the coolant temp sensors been checked for correct functionality? On my last car my consumption took a nose dive.. after a lot of messing about we found the coolant sensor was dead and the engine was always running very rich (choke). Replacing that saw my mpg return... Possibly the same here?

Turbo or supercharger

Look for any black oily / tar spots around any of the injectors. Mine whernt coked up, just showing signs of vapour leakage. Take the engine cover off and start the engine. Try mad smell above injectors starting from #1 ( side nearest aux belt ).If you smell fumes then it's injector blowby not...

Let me ask my friend at Honda parts to see what he can dig up

Group buy? I would like one

Hmm that choice is hard. Used turbo and fitting should be under 1K from a non Honda garage. 2.0 petrol looks nice though.. But Thats 4k extra....

Do you warm the car up and let it cool down properly? If you go in to boost when the engine turbo is cold it will wear things very quickly.

You won't have any difficulty then if HH did it for you!

As Brett said.. but fight the dealer hard even if it is over a year old as they removed the injector and have not re seated it correctly causing this to happen... its not something that happens over night either. If you need more help and advice, drop me a pm as I fought my dealer over 2 leaking...

Can you provide more information about the event... Cost, exact location, date, length of time... etc etc I'm interested if I can get there

I think you would have to mod the wiring harness to apply power to the bulbs or LEDs behind the switches.. I'm sure it won't be too hard

I would get the brake / clutch fluid changed first as it sounds like it either has water ingress and not operating the clutch properly or either the master or slave cylinder isn't working correctly. A slipping clutch is found if you put your foot down in 3rd or 4th and the revs rise before the...
