    From a "Type R" to a "Type S"

    So so clean and tidy, not a massive fan of the purple but definately put your own stamp on it! The injen intake is overrated, the k&n typhoon trashed it in heeltoes big test, quite an interesting read. Looking forward to more pics and mods :-)

    Woeful windscreen washers

    IMO don't use a pin unless you have a metal ball in the nozzle I ******ed my 7th gen spray pattern using one! And if you need the check valves just pop into any auto factor as they will be pennies rather than pounds and all do the same job ;-)

    Woeful windscreen washers

    I usually blow the tubes out with an airline periodically. You can check if the nozzles are blocked by removing the tubes from the washer nozzle and getting someone else to try them, if it flows freely its the nozzles if not there could be a blockage further down in the resevoir/pump.

    YAW Sensor - Where?

    Really interesting as my vsa light comes on time to time. When I first got the car I took it back with the vsa permanently on with yaw failure code, honda reset/re calibrated it and now it's temperamental. If it gets worse I might try swapping out the sensor!

    type r timing belt

    Sorry have to chime in if you haven't already done this. Replace the auto tensioner without question, either honda item or do a manual tensioner conversion. They are prone to failing on Atrs, belt could slip and bye bye head, seen it happen on a mates which was replaced with a blueprint one and...

    Lowering spring install - what not to do....

    Also when bolting the top hat back on the strut look at the rubber inside as it will show you where the old spring sat and help get it orientated correctly!

    Lowering spring install - what not to do....

    On any car when refitting a strut I usually put the strut straight up into the shock tower and loosely bolt it up. You can then just twist the lower shock round until your groove lines up jack the lower arm and tap your bolt into place. Hope this helps =]

    Dull headlight plastic

    I charge people to do this at work, depending on how bad the lens is we start with p1000 wet and dry and work up to p2500. No need for any special polish we use Farecla G3 cutting compound (handy in any toolbox) on a rotary polisher, works a treat. 15min per lens and they look like new. If you...

    Drive Belt

    Yep they should be able to! gates make belts and tensioners for all makes and are big in oem stuff. Would check their website about the tensioners, if your worried pick one up on sale/return basis and check the condition of yours when you do the belt. Check for smoothness and wear and if it...
