After some advise please. ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
When Fahad remapped my car the other day , and diagnostic check was all okay, also he rekons decent engine! (74k)
Its such a dramatic change to power delivery , and knowing engines a good un - its kinda inspired me to get some other things done.
First is de-coke inlet manfold-in bits at mo., full service fluid change etc.
Just orderd some braided lines , already have rear caliper seal/pistons kits from last year- so will get onto that .
Looked into front brakes but TBH they seem pretty dear for twin piston calipers, they all need rebuild , a couple that dont are £250-300!
So next suspension as always wallows about like a big barge! -but wasnt designed for sporting use as CDti so not complaining.
Would like Bilston shocks and have found the following :
Rear B6 24/107327 / Front B6 24/107303. (from other peoples posts).
Have found some Spax (SSX Spring Kit Honda Accord Estate 2.2 CDTi Type CN2 Year 04/03-On, No lowering. Part no S012068).
I have 17inch wheels off Type R, so wheels fit fine in orginal arches, old epsilons @16inch , just looked wrong!
But dont want ideally to lower
as carry a lot of weight when i go away , and rekon it would comprimise load carrying ability.
Also want to retain comfort TBH, as have old Landy and mk2 gti for the pot hole pain.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Can get them both for around £550 (shocks from Germany) vs b12 lowered kit @£670 from Uk.
Am i doing right /wrong ? any advise before i place order!!!
