Confirmed its a go/ need to arrange collection

I've found a haltech I'm interested in getting but don't trust Facebook people with a grand. Would soneone be able to collect/pickup for me? Happy to pay for your gas money/time. I'd transfer you the cash and you could pay in person and collect This is ecu in question https://www.facebook.com/groups/2079652212279250/permalink/3016029215308207/ Details tbc if they actually reply

They have a cast Ali chamber on top for reasons? Maybe increase plenum volume or reduce doort noises? One of the earlier pics has shows the plenum sitting on top

Fixed the dizzy o ring and cam seal o ring so should fix those leaks. Did plugs and leads too while it was apart Did the sound deadening on the passengers door

Yeah I got good wholesome dad vibes from that note. Dad was probably paying for aa to look after the car too. Main relay has been fine so far (touch wood) Could be keen on it for the shuttle though

It's interesting to see what treasures you find in a car There were 4 egg balls, various water bottles, three modems. A million chargers, a note from dad and some receipts They got shafted on the rocker cover gasket. Genuine honda retails at 25+gst Took it to wash world and its cleaner now. Those wheels need to go ASAP. Might go grab my p1s off the shuttle

Thanks @brocky41 for the deal on the glass and surrounds. All installed and water tight now Sold the euro r (took my amp and speakers out) Installed sound deadening and used Industy standard techniques to install the speakers I need to find some decent 6" for the front. I incorrect measured and ordered 5.25 which were out of stock luckily

Thats the plan if I can find a head that's not $500 and needs a refresh. The other plan would be throw a set of valve springs and cams at it https://store.briancrower.com/products/bc0022?_pos=2&_sid=ce6205653&_ss=r&variant=1609953795

Yeah exactly the same as the CRV stuff, Gearbox/engine are the same too and share the same mounts so that makes stuff less difficult to get. The rear trailing arms are apparently different (as are wheel bearings after trawling the catalogues)

If it ain't broke don't fix it lol

Can confirm diff is presen and correct and does diff things https://i.imgur.com/CJ5GDiz.mp4 Be amazed by the powah I'm pleasantly surprised at how clean it is. Rocker cover and cam seal are leaking but easy fix

On a good day

Reverse donuts?

Yes the fridge is sitting on the back deck settling. Will grab diff pics tomorrow. I eyeballed it today and can confirm it exists

That sticker is the reason I bidded Mrs Chris r took it for a spin around the block and we did some wagon stuff Couple of bits of rust starting around the boot It'll need gaskets as it leaks oil pretty bad

Nothing like a midnight delivery/pickup Still wof until December so that's a win. Will give it a look over after work today

Could be keen will pm for deets

I'd suggest checking/looking at the various grounds. Could be a shit connection somewhere

So do ga16 in suzuki vitaras if you want boost

Torco do a mtf compatable with honda boxes that's a fair bit cheaper than the genuine fluid. I got some from 1st auto parts(ex segedins) I assume they still stock it

Info dump of manwell stuff while I've found it ) gearbox from CR-V (first gen) GF-RD1 4WD. Serial number of gearbox is SBXM. To find Orthia 4WD manual gearbox impossible. There were too small amount produced. 2) Pedals from Civic 6 gen (ek) 3) Starter from any B-series manual transmission, example DENSO (31200-P3F-J01) 4) Flywheel (22100-P75-005) with bolts (90011-PH3-000) 5) Clutch master cylinder (46920-S10-003) and clutch second cylinder (46930-SR3-013) also reservoir and pipes for fluid 6) shifting arm from CR-V, Orthia, Partner or Accord Euro R 7) clutch disk (22200-P3F-035) with clutch basket (22300-P3F-005) and bolts (90034-689-000) 8 ) engine mounts for mounting gearbox: rear (50827-S10-J00), upper (50825-S10-J01) and down (50843-S10-J00) 9) half-axel (44500-S10-000) 10) and rear t bracket gearbox (50827-S10-J00) can be used from CR-V A quick look suggests crv stuff shares the same part numbers so if I grab axles/mounts/shifter/everything off the crv I should be good

Fresh crisp wof gee. Clean sheet even Now for sale. 3k firm for osgc but will chuck it on Facebook for 3.5

I wish. The motor is the cheap part

Oh and a massive thanks to @The Dude for arranging collection etc etc

So Lockdown trawling has resulted in me owning another honda wagon. This one is In Wellington so it'll be a while until I get it Salvage auction, still wof and reg its a 01 so yearly wofs which is a bonus- Description is vandalized all panels damaged and selling registered - Externally it looks okay/normal wear and tear and it has roof rails which the accord wagon doesnt. looks to have ignition shrouds smashed and possibly ignition damage - Nothing a trip to pap/zebra wont fix Its done nearly 300 thousand km so will be perfect to drive home right? Facelift orthia which I have been mildly pining for ages and the price was right, Awd which is a bonus but auto which isn't. I'll have to keep a eye out for a manwell CRV to rob the gearbag from. I've got some suspension in stock to lower it and will find another block and keep a eye out for a vtec head for doorts/ more powers. I'll keep a eye out for some smaller less yuck wheels (15s) Anyone want a accord wagon? Will wof then attempt to find it a new home
