    Been running car on no oil! Ep3

    Car today was hesitating before hitting the vtec checked engine oil and dip stick was bone dry! I knew type r's used a lot of oil but was okay on last check and didn't think it would've been that much. Getting changed today but is it too late is the damage done?:(

    B pipe/back box fitment query.

    I've just got a sportex unsilenced centre pipe but have a powerflow catback on at the moment, I was planning on using the b pipe in conjunction with the back box thats on but they have different fittings. Is there any way I can join them together or gonna need to buy a new back box too?

    Thoughts on this exhaust?

    Cheers mate, I'll have a look into that one. Surely a better bet than an ebay number lol. Anybody know roughly how much it will cost to get one of these fitted?

    Thoughts on this exhaust?

    I was wanting one of these but they've been out of stock on the japspeed website for ages, can't find them anywhere else. I will be getting it mapped soon, hopefully get manifold sorted this week then induction kit couple weeks time then get kpro.

    Thoughts on this exhaust?

    Even if I have to buy twice it's still gonna save me a hell a lot of money though. I could even buy a couple spares lol. I should've asked, will this make similar gains to a big brand manifold or is it just a waste of money?

    Thoughts on this exhaust?

    Looking to get a 4-2-1 decat manifold for my ep3 but really can't justify splashing out £1000+ for toda ect. Was going to buy the japspeed one but can't find one anywhere so been looking for alternatives and came across this...

    Install Silvatec indicatorbulbs.

    Great guide. I've got absolutely no mechanical experience and this took me about 3 minutes. Only thing is I couldn't get one of the poppers back in right but it seems pretty secure without it anyway. The bulbs packaging looks different but they have the same part number. Cost £13.99 from...

    Broken fuel injector 2 months after buying car.

    I didn't pay for a warranty but I had a problem before with it and read that you have some sort of 6 month warranty under the sales of goods act or something. Just found one on ebay for 27quid though, result!

    Broken fuel injector 2 months after buying car.

    As above, been quoted today £439 to get a new fuel injector fitted. Should the garage I bought this from fix/pay for this or do I need to fork out myself? Also if anybody is selling one pm me lol.

    Broken exhaust. Will a new mani & decat need mapped?

    Exhaust has died on me last night:( Went out for a drive, was fine for first 5 minutes then driving slowly through the town noticed a funny noise. Exhaust was making a sound like "bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum" and car only pulling about half as hard as normal. Took the car into the garage...

    Brake lines noob question.

    Gonna order some HEL brake lines. Do I need to get both front & rear or just front? Will the rears make much difference, read somewhere that they only deal with a small percentage of the cars braking?

    Ferodo pads performance and life?

    Well brakes been squeaking away so time for some new front pads. Been seeing a lot of people recommend the ferodo pads. What kind of difference do they really make compared to the standard ones? Also what kind of mileage should I expect out of them, all I seem to do these days is spend money on...

    Kwik fit service?? Skint! (ep3 Fife)

    So it's time for my 132 month interim service, but last service hasn't been filled out in book so thinking I'd better get a full service anyway. Was looking at service prices online and to get it done at Honda is gonna cost me £400+, compared to kwik-fit at £130. I need to get new tyres within...

    Power steering problem. Garage denying anything wrong.

    Well that's a bit sh*t lol. Was kinda hoping something was wrong so that I could get it sorted and it would be a better drive but ohwell. I do have mis-matched tyres though so hopefully that will help things when I get them changed. Anything I can do to help the feel of the steering atall or...

    Power steering problem. Garage denying anything wrong.

    Basically I've just bought an ep3 and been having a couple problems with the steering. The power steering doesn't centre the wheel after turning a corner and is very heavy sometimes. I have very little feel in the steering way and can sometimes pull side to side when braking. I took it back to...
