    Mij exhaust

    My Lexus GS300 has one. Very happy and sounds great...imo stick to "stock" when they ask how loud you want it, as even with there stock option, my Lexus is significantly louder than stock.

    Steering make loud creaking squeeking noises!

    Glad you got it sorted Lou. Poly front mounts are worthwhile if you are driving it hard, but other than that keep it oem because poly mounts will put more vobration into the cabin and pedal box.

    Overheating and Coolant Loss

    How quick is the guage going up? I was 17 when I had my CH7, and it was running a F20B6. Back then I was a little inexperienced with cars, and as I drove through town on a hot day, the guage rocketed up and I panicked, immediately pulling over and shutting off the car. Anyway long story short...

    Failed MOT

    Pain in the arse to be honest, mainly because the nipple end going into the caliper runs incredibly close to the suspension and body.

    F18b2 losing oil, help? Engine swap?

    Half correct. The car constantly reads AFR's, RPM and Oil Pressure and then "decides" on whether VTEC is safe to operate or not. For example, VTEC will not engage with a low oil level because as said, VTEC relys on oil pressure. Of the oil is low, the ECU will read the oil pressure at its...

    F18b2 losing oil, help? Engine swap?

    Actually Simon, VTEC does use more oil as the oil pressure gets higher when engaged, and more oil is then guided directly onto the camshaft and then the excess fumes are blown out the PCV valve. So in summary, Exec is pretty much spot on. OP, I would definetely prefer 10w/40 in there instead of...

    How low would you go?

    20-30mm imo especiappy when on 16's. Any lower and it will start to lose its practicality.

    Accord 4 stud to ATR 5 stud Swap - Anyone done this?

    Everything is swappable bud, literally every nut and bolt. The swap was actually very easy and was straightforward enough. The hardest part was getting the dash out so that the loom and ECU could be swapped over, but it was more requiring of patience and attention to detail rather than being a...

    Accord 4 stud to ATR 5 stud Swap - Anyone done this?

    I done a full ATR drivetrain swap to my 6G 4-stud a couple of years ago. You can see most the specs in my signature... Anywho, yes it was a very simple swap. I bought a ATR donor car rather than buy the parts seperately, and everything just swaps over as the chassis is identical. I swapped to...

    cruise control not working

    Yeah I would check the switches, they could either need to be adjusted or replaced. Find an empty straight road and build up some speed. With the CC turned on, put both your feet under the brake and clutch pedals and hold them up towards you, then press "SET" on the wheel. Try that at least to...

    Coolant Advice please - urgent

    Keep an eye on it bud. No car should need topping up when it comes to the coolant system as it's sealed. I've never topped up my 6G after 15 years of ownership, it just gets flushed and replaced every few years.

    JDL lip kit? to MOD or not to MOD?

    What Accord do you have, Type-R etc.? This topic comes up alot, but unfortunately there is nothing that you could realistically do to the SOHC VTECs unless you are prepared to spend ££££ and go down the FI route, turbo it etc. All things like air induction kits and exhausts will do is add...

    6th Gen front speaker size?

    It's some sort of sticky paste...not sure what it is tbh. Luckily, you can just stick the sheet back in place using the existing glue as it's so sticky, meaning you don't have to re-glue! :)

    Rear Bumper Size?

    No they don't fit. Saloon is longer at the sides.
