Oem CAT is a 400 cel, so the tegiwa one will be very close to the oem one so no EML or changes in the car behaviour. Weld it in a professional shop and you are good to go.

this will safely get you through the MOT, otherwise if you want to go a little bit of power look for some 200 cell cat which when is hot usually is passing MOT. check the threads there is info about this. https://www.tegiwaimports.com/tegiwa-universal-400-cel-catalytic-converter.html

maybe some cat/shaft protection or similar... put it on an elevator and run it to see where it comes from, should be easy to identify like this.

@Vitka - you know the saying: Honda doesn't burn the oil, it is using it! :D ... i wouldn't worry about this if it is in marginal quantities, mine is getting like 1l in 10k km, which is even better because along the year period i'm refilling with fresh oil keeping the oil quality always good ;)

i had something similar, it turned out to be the crank pulley, the rubber in the middle got dislocated. ugly sounds when happened, the belt was also slipping over the pulley since it got somehow stuck, but i don't remember having issues giving it a quick start.

it seems the new conti7s are great so i would go for it:

@Dangibernau - you could always use youtube for videos, just post the link.

hi damir, sorry about that, i don't know why i understood you were after xenon headlight bulbs. Anyway, you can try send an email to these guys (tell them you need for a LHD) maybe they still have some on stock Coxmotor

Any D2S xenon bulb will work. I recommend best value for price being osram original. You can see a nice review

it seems the car age start to come in place, i also received from honda dealer an answer that a cable from the heater matrix is not produced anymore. Maybe you can try find it in the US if you really need a new one, otherwise a used one should work just fine.

oem or known suspension companies like bilstein, kw etc. i know some guys went for kabaya (kyb) and in half a year they were leaking

Lemforder and TRW are reliable parts regarding the bushes. you can try also what japserviceparts offer, japan quality at affordable prices.

i don't think you will find one, only part by part from honda. Maybe in US you would have some chance. Still, the Hardrace ones are also made from rubber, only being more hardened.

mine has also the mechanic controls and they are ****, the cable from temperature button keeps (bending) due to design of the system and it is not working anymore. replacing it is not cheap or easy job.

it is possible, there is a how to on h-tune website but it is currently down (https://h-tune.co.uk/club/guides/replacing-the-steering-rack-slider-with-the-rack-in-the-car.1859/) because of this kind of situations i have also saved the text, if you need it soon i can put it here or send you some...
