  1. I had enough brain power to do the timing belt, flywheel, and hang the turbo. I'm thinking the drain might be too low but I'll wait until the fittings arrive. I'll have to work out a bracket or mounting for the waste gate as the existing mountings put the outlet at the block or the ground. Hly shit thats a horrible photo. I'll have to find my camera tomorrow
  2. And have series Holden's probably aren't the strongest in side impacts anyway
  3. I removed it on two of my shuttles and got away with it. Technically you need a cert I believe You just need a non abs master cylinder. I can't remember if you need a booster too, check the angle on the master cylinder. I think the accord/poolude etc masters are a different angle so you may be able to use on of them, Proportioning valve out of the same car (providing its drum rear) and all the firewall brake lines. Oh and all the abs wheel speed sensors and possibly the rings on the cv joints. It will probably be easier to take the intake manifold off as its a tight with the abs crap. If you want to be cheap I have a pair of hubs you can have for free.
  4. Massive thanks to Evan for your help yesterday! It would of taken me about a week to achieve what we did in a few hours! The accord radius arms look like the will work nicely on the shuttle . It look like I may have to extend the thread for the lock nut as the accord thread ends sooner than the ef. A rough option could be using some washers We also replaced the trailing arm bush and wheel cylinder. No pics but noone wants to look at a flakey old bush... Thought I may as well put the mg rotors on which I've had sitting for about a year. They are 282mm, the right offset for prelude calipers and even fit the stock retaining screws. I had 280mm mini rotors on before but they are slightly thinner and the wheel studs holes are larger so there is potiental for the rotor to move. Motor and box came out if crx so at some point I'll drop both boxes off and get one good lsd box back.
  5. Ja russell mang we(they) sell different colours. may not be the cheapest though. See if you can scab a n3 card or borrow someones account /corys or any other wholesaler
  6. If my engine crane gets dropped off I'll need a hand/someone to pull a motor out. I'll even supply beers
  7. Option 4: keep putting thicker oil in it? If it's burning
  8. I have seen someone 3d print a adapor from the old tombstone batteries to the slide in lithium type. Surely aliexpress or similar might have a adapter
  9. Os house demo. We ate all tight/hoarders so you probably won't even need a skip for the rubbish
  10. I'm not bothered by the date as of yet. Ness might come too
  11. Keen too. Only Honda's at my garage so no one wants to see them.
  12. My guess would be compare the part numbers on the side?
  13. Go see Jason at pitstop grey Lynn for exhaust stuff. New Lynn tyreworx did my c10,proper old Barry there
  14. and its on sale at supercheap - Well I noticed the label saying full zinc on the sale shelf
  15. I pulled the fake carbon fiber shit off the roof panel. I found some of the leaks... I went to start it again the other day and no go. Me being a tight arse and using a s/h pump wasn't a good idea. Time to drop the tank again
  16. Popped into zebra and grabbed the radius arms out of a old accord so now I can adjust the caster easily. I'm glad I found out about the accord arms! The bushes for the arms also turned up so perfect timing on that. The mounting centers look the same as the Civic ones but the holes are a tiny bit smaller, Easy fix though. I picked up some recaros to replace the ones in the crx. Drivers side squab has come out and they aren't that comfortable
  17. Figure out what features/functions you want/need and go from there?
  18. Repair guy might like he did in my case say nah that is just staining and you only need to fix this one thing. The repair cert man over rules the compliance people so like you said wait untill he has a look. Shit monday is fast! It took me a while to find someone to come have a look
  19. Hmm good idea. I'll have to have a look next time I go
  20. I'm probably being stupid again. I'll look when I have more brain power
  21. I'm wanting to do efi on the 202 (in the near future) I've looked at MS but the speeduino stuff seems to be more what I need. I'm thinking semi sequential and waste spark so I'll need 3 ign and 3 injector outputs. Where has everyone got their speeduino stuff from? I seem to be a noob at searching at the moment. I was going to be lazy and use the carb manifold and drill/get some injector boss welded in and use a throttlebody off something injected so I have a tps/map sensor point
  22. Another day full of win. I left the loctite to chooch overnight and it worked perfect. Once I took a hour to diagnose a blown fuse.... New copper crush washers did the trick on the filter too. Happy with that result. I set the idle stop screw so now it actually idles and no more hunting. Attempted to do a stationary cooling test but the back is so light it drags it along, It has lots of revs now and speedo seems to be working still. it isnt too loud with the cannon gone and the muffler not leaking The loudest part is the gearbox now
