    RAF Marham trackday - anyone going? NOW cancelled

    As above, next RAF Marham trackday is planned for next month. Does anyone from here attend these events? If so it would be good to swap some boost action for some VTEC action :cool: Members of certain car clubs are invited to this so hopefully if you are a PistonHeads or ATR.org member you...

    New pressure washer recommendations

    My trusty Karcher 570 gave up the ghost this weekend after 7 years of use. Great bit of kit that has served me well but now I need a replacement. From a quick google it seems many of the newer Karchers aren't built as well and don't last as long so I'm tempted to try something else. Looking to...

    Snowfoam and wash mitts

    It's taken 2 years to get through 5 litres of snow foam (!) and now the time has come to purchase some more. So the question is has the stuff changed since I last bought it? My last lot came from auto rae-chem who seemed to get on the snow foam band wagon first. These days everyone does it so...

    Accord 2.2 CTDi Sport GT (MY 2007)

    Does anyone know much about these? I'm considering getting a diesel family car and the above sounds very nice. It seems the Honda diesel engines are highly regarded and I need something with a big boot so this seems to tick many of the boxes, especially as the Sport GT spec comes with uprated...

    Fitting flush rear seat belts

    Bit of a long shot but worth a go; My other half has got her eye on a new baby seat for the car, problem is this particular baby seat only works with flush rear seat belts and the FD2s protrude through the seats. The sales guy mentioned that some car manufacturers are able to alter the rear seat...

    Looks like the first NHB FD2 to hit our shores is en-route and on it's way to 200bhp. Follow the link for more info and pics http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/635062.htm I've never been a fan of black on the FD2 but I'm sure it'll still go down a storm

    FN2 Service sheet/checklist

    I've been having a right quandary about where to get my car serviced, but long story short is that it is probably going to a small local garage. Can someone do me a favour and post up a copy of the service checklist that Honda work through on the 12 month service (not sure if this is FN2...

    Servicing recommendations - East Mids/East Anglia

    Well the FD2 is nearly due it's 1 year service. I have used Powerstation in the past as it is 40 mins from where my family live, but a bit too far for me to make a trip over to unless i happen to be over that way. So with that in mind can anyone recommend me a decent place to get my FD2 serviced...

    FN2 Type S fireblade edition

    Probably posted before but subsequently lost with the server prob, I stumbled across this whilst browsing Nihon the other day. Looks pretty tasty to me. Judging by the link it appears this is only for the Italian market though :confused: Enjoy...

    De-badged - how to remove ghosting marks/dirt from around badge

    Ok, i've removed the 'civic' badge from the back of my car, but unfortunately as it had covered 6k miles by the time I did this it has left a ghost 'civic' logo on the back from where dirt has built up. Trouble is i'm having a right nightmare removing it! Have tried washing and rubbing...

    dodo juice - soft or hard?

    Thinking of getting some dodo juice as I keep hearing good things about it and they do a couple of products specifically for white or light coloured cars. Question is, do I go for their soft wax, or the hard? Which one is best? I want a wax that goes on easy and buffs off easily too, are they...

    FD2 kph

    I was just planning a potential road trip around Europe and you know what suddenly dawned on me, the car has only got mph readout due to the digital display! :mad: I wonder if there is an easy way around this (apart from having to do the mental arithmetic)

    Jetseal 109

    Anyone else here tried this? I bought some the other day and tried it out earlier. It must be the easiest stuff to apply and buff off. I'm always sceptical about how easily some polishes are to use, had a few nightmares in the past but this is great. First coat goes on and comes off pretty much...

    FD2 My FD2 - 36 hour review

    Well I finally picked up my FD2 on Saturday after a long wait but it was well worth it. I have only had the car a short time so here's a mini (slightly biased!) review. The first thing that has to be said is that photos do not do the car justice. It looks so much better in the flesh. The...

    FD2 EVO car of the year - FD2 in 6th place!

    This months EVO (out today) is the ECOTY 07 issue where they take the best cars from the past 12 months and pit them against each other. There's some crazy metal in the running and the FD2 come in 6th, beating the lambo Superlegga and is right behind the new M3 :cool: The final ranking is...

    FD2 Japanese Performance Magazine - 56k no-no!

    This months Japanese Performance has a great 9 page feature on the FD2 vs FN2 vs DC5. Real nice unbiased write up and lots of pics. They love the FD2 and praise it highly. Worth buying if you are collecting FD2 magazines like me. If you see anymore FD2 features around, give it a mention in...

    FD2 Cigarette Lighter?!

    Daft question, does the FD2 have a 12v adaptor in it? I honestly can't remember! I know they stopped putting cigarette lighters in some cars, and on others it was an option. Just wondering if I can plug my sat nav in. I'm guessing if it's there it is at the bottom of the dash in or by one of...

    Blaupunkt stereos - any good?

    Looking for head units for my FD2 and quite fancy this: http://www.bluespot.co.uk/stock/seattle.asp Anyone had experience of Blaupunkts? I know they used to be good. I've looked at so many headunits it's untrue, but i've found something I don't like about most of them. This one fits the...

    FD2 Servicing

    A bit early but I can't help but wonder what the best thing to do about servicing is. I know my local Honda dealer has seen a few DC5s, and the K20 unit is in a few cars so they know how to service it. Question is - does it go to Honda to get the magic 'H' stamp, or off to a specialist like...

    FD2 FD2 owners/pre-orders thread

    There seems to be a few of us that have pre-ordered FD2s and a number of other people interested in getting them. I think it would be useful for the people with them on order to put their names in here and optionally the company they are sourcing it through. Hopefully any questions or issues...
