I guessed it was a Bren cover


check the radiator support bar is not bend due to the RBC. If it is then re-mount it & the bonnet should close properly.

hmmm, not quite sure what you mean exactly, will have to look at it to know. cheers, will try tomorrow, if i dont succeed, you'll be seeing me fairly soon :bigthumb:

Well, bit of an update. have just ordered some Super Pro arb bushes all round, goodridge stainless hoses and some ferodo ds2500 all round, all from 8 Speed.

Will be getting some new oem discs when my pal who works at honda lets me know the price, along with a new front 'H' badge.

this be all be getting fitted with some ES front control arm bushes that ive still got, so my mate will fit all this, hopefully in time for the next Wembley meet .

ah nice one dude, really appreciate it!!! think i should be alright though, going to let my mate whos a honda tech do it at his house, hes got all the tools in the world and a 4 post lift in his garage!! lol

cheers rich :thumbup:

[Newannaive]

oem discs are about 90quid for the fronts and 60 for the rears iirc

[BlakMagik]

fronts are £72 and rears £69 on Import car parts.co.uk. but my mate should get them at trade price i think

well I can't compete with that!! I've got all the tools but only a nice set of axel stands!!!

:thumbup:

[RM CYA]

Also, check out Eurocar parts. They stock genuine parts and now do jap parts too!

Would love to have my own lift..

A couple of mates of mine rented a small unit a few years back to make a bit of extra cash and keep the gym equip. down there and work on own cars etc...they bought a lift off ebay for 1500quid. Bargain..!!

fronts are £72 and rears £69 on Import car parts.co.uk. but my mate should get them at trade price i think

I paid honda prices..

[BlakMagik]

i know nuts man!! well if i need a hand and he aint about, ill give you a shout :thumbup: . he does stuff on my car all the time now. his hobby, if you will, is turbo'ing jap cars. hes done so many ctr's/itr's. hes a got a fully v-spec forged itr with 450bhp, uses it everyday, never went wrong. did it all himself. had a pulsar, which was one of many, just sold it so back to the teg. he really knows his turbo's. hes only done one s/c coneversion, to his old mini, and said he could have done mine but thought would be best to go to eurospec. if i was turbo'ing my car then would have defo gone to him.

[RM CYA]

If he can build a forge engine, do turbo conversions, fitting a charger is a piece of pish!! Basically just changing the inlet manifold!! Lol. Tell him he's a fag!!!

[BlakMagik]

nah, he was more then up for doing it, i was in two minds , my bad!!! lol

[RM CYA]

nah, he was more then up for doing it, i was in two minds , my bad!!! lol

Then your the fag!!! Think of the money you could have saved, and you say yourself he knows his jap cars especially Hondas! Silly boy!!! Where abouts is he based, just incase I need to slip him a few notes for a bit of work/ramp use (cheeky I know, but money talks!! )
