Sorry but smoke on VTEC no matter how big or small should be expected. How many miles has it done? My F20B6 Type-V has just over 280k miles now and doesn't let out any smoke at all on VTEC, and my H22'd CH7 in my pic doesn't either, having about 35k miles on the engine. I would do a...

Christ...That is painful to look at. To be honest, I would cut your losses and pick up another Accord. They are worth so little now, and that one needs some serious jig work to get straight, especially seeing as you can see the inner boot shut has been pushed down and created a huge gap, and...

Just looking at your profile pic, that's a lot worse than I was expecting so it's no wonder they want to write it off! Are you sure there's no suspension damage?

If it definetely needs a replacement wing, then any path you go down will be expensive as a decent repair involves a lot of work, cutting out the old wing, welding in New one including spot welds etc, then seam sealing and whatnot. You could go down the cheaper route by getting your wing jigged...

Yes an F18 would go straight in. A H22 would require a donor ECU and wiring loom.

You could fit a H22 from a Prelude or Accord Type-R for not a lot of money, but you'll still have to swap looms, ECU and other ancillarys, as well as swapping or modifying your subframe as well as changing the hubs. To be honest, I would just swap in another F18 and get on with life, as really...

In short, no. Only possible if you change the ECU which willl cost £££. Even if you did higher the RPM limit, the heads internals will not be designed for that and thus you will cause damage. Then of course, the power will drop off very quick meaning your revs will be screaming, but you would...

No totally different engines mate, the F20B6 is a SOHC and the H22A7 is a DOHC. As said, exterior and interior parts will fit straight on.

Well that certainly wouldn't help so yeah, get that fixed too.

Which bolt are you referring to? Seals can be bought from any good trade merchants or building supplier, even most garages will have a good "o-ring" set. Just take in your injectors and ask the garage to change the seals.

You can reuse the old glue. When you prise them apart it will be like string cheese, so just carefully break the strings and place them back onto the lenses/headlight unit. Then when you are ready to put them back together, heat up the glue so it softens, then stick them together and press very...

I only have before/after pics sorry. Bumper off, headlight out. Undo the 3 screws on the back of the indicator, then use a heatgun to soften the glue and slowly prise the lenses apart. Give the chrome piece a light sanding (DO NOT do the inner curve of the indicator, just the outer border )...

With all due respect, seems you've been a bit ham fisted when putting the injectors back in and pinched or tore a seal. I would start off replacing the seals then go from there.

Hi! Pres have a lip kit indeed, and it is seperate to the bumper. The lips are attached to the bumper with screws/fasteners and 3M tape. Posts didn't't have lips, however there was a lip available as an option, however they are very rare and only available for the front lip. Pre bumpers will...

Just in case you do try it yourself... 3 bolts along the top of the wing in the engine bay. 1 bolt underneath where the bumper meets the wing. 1 bolt underneath the a-pillar, it's at the top and you can see it when you open the door. 1 bolt at the bottom hidden underneath the sideskirt. So...

It's just each to there own buddy. I dread to think how much it cost to my 6G, and it will never be finished really as you'll always find changes you want to make. I'd say it's easily over €10k, and she's currently in surgery costing me more €€€, and yet I don't regret spending a single cent...

Yes anyone who bothers swapping motors into these old beautys must be off there rockers! ;)

Might be F18 as he talking using "another 1.8 sport" as his donor car.

As above, massive waste of time and money...H22 swap is your best bet.

Over 3 years now. The left side did droop after a month, but they said this can happen due to the new metal going through heat cycles. I simply brought it back and they fixed it within 30 minutes, and it's been flawless since. MIJ puts a lifetime warranty on there exhausts even if the car has a...
