Can I come with you if you do a day In July please mate?

You can buy the excact model you are describing. I think its beiing marketed as the sport line. Loads better in my opinion both to drive and visualy

stunning car mate. Loved these ever since I saw two of them within a few miles of each other on the m4 a few years back

Pretty sure i saw this around swindon the other week. Looks very nice

another dc5 or fd2

I thought it was the rocker cover seal but my mechanic said its from the oil filter area ., Going to get it up on a ramp and have a proper look

you sure its not just tram lining ? ep3's are renowned for that. used to happen all the time in my old ep3

Cheers loxy looks like its coming from the rocker cover

So according to my MOT tester I have a slight oil leak. He wasn't able to tell me where from though. I'm going to borrow my mates ramp and have a look. Any common areas to check first? I have noticed its using more oil but I just put that down to the pcv vale needing changing, Haven't...

no they are just on with adhesive dental floss and just saw away will do it then you will just need to clear up the mess it leaves behind

I think you mean like the crv has. Put the car in reverse and the mirrors tilt. Then when back in gear they resume the set position FK8 doesn't have them

What did you dislike about the Suzuki? I thought those little jimnys were supposed to be brilliant

Depends what colours you like. You may be disappointed if you don't wait

wait and see what is released if you have a year left on the fk2 anyway

Where has this pro edition name surfaced from ?

I will show you on Monday if you're not too hungover :p

do you have a photo of the diffuser fins fitted from a distance showing the whole rear end ? How much were they if you don't mind me asking ?

Ive got the same issue with a soaking wet boot but mine seems to be coming in from the left hand side only as I can see where its coming in when I take the jack cover off . Not checked the spoiler yet , I cant see anything obvious apart from the roof rail moulding has become unclipped at the...

check the backing plate . push it away from the disk

Sorry to dig up an old thread, Just wondering if this car was still going out of interest ?. Been chatting about crx's today and made me think of this thread from years ago

How did you manage to get the grill off to fit the new badge without taking the bumper off ? I tried but couldn’t get the bottom two clips off. Pain as I’ve got a nice new badge to fit but not had the time to mess about taking the bumper off Cheers

The compartment under the boot floor seems to slightly leaking . Amy idea on the first places to check and good fixes ? Cheers

trust me you dont want to see it.....its ugly

I always thought st's were 3 door

looks cleaner already :-p

looks nice mate but just get those stripes/stickers off. plain white will look even beter

looks tidy mate top job

reminds me of a thread i read on another forum a guy tried to do a oil change using a hosepipe to "clean out all the old oil"

J578TBM Could do with a good wash the other two black ones look mint...fair play

It does sound like a caliper i had power loss on the scooby and it turned out to be a right rear caliper siezed. Hope its somthing cheep and easy for you

ive had about 5 got a siver ex at the moment. in my opinion cracking cars preety quick and economical and very good handling.

Ive had a few through work good cars but you will regret changing the type r

They are good cars but if you want a 4x4 then get a proper one crv is nothing but a tall civic lol

seen this on ebay. the bloke wants 9k for it http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1989-HONDA-CIVIC-CRX-BLACK_W0QQitemZ270670612929QQcategoryZ18206QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp5197.m7QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D4%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5275357910888115402

does just sound like a stuck lock mate....put some wd40 on the lock/hinges

Thats my old scooby yeah sold it a month or so ago I now have a boring 10 plate civic diesel lol. I think ive seen you about i like the gt4

As chris said TGM are the best place to go. top honest guys. Avoid any honda main dealers as they will rip you off. welcome to the forum. Im from trowbridge as well

I reckon it's Kirstys dodgy parking mate. lol

yeah its not a great difference but its the little things that get annoying i know lol

the darker wheel coulour you speak of is the colour they used on the facelift cars wheels 2004 onwards hence why your centre caps would be a different colour. look on ebay see if you can find any facelift wheel caps

Im hoping we get a option to have these as lease cars at work soon. would make a nice change from a civic or a jazz

Usually in the event of a crash i have read about them being triggered by electrical faults as well.....(it may not be this obviously im only going on what you described and it matches) ie engine starting but then cutting out

sounds like the fuel cut of switch. im unsure where it is though a quick search on here or google should locate it. its worth a try also check all the fuses

Take the air filter off it gives realy loud v teck. you could also try drilling a few holes in the exchaust.

or for just a little bit more you can have a low milege scooby

dude i think your much beter off and safer selling up and taking the bus lol

Mint car mate. the recaros are a bit snug though lol

It will be a pain in the arse to do but take the roof lining out get someone to pour water over the top and see where its coming in from

looks good. nice and low

Mine did this a couple of times i did the same as you left it then tried again. it only happened twice in around 2 years of ownership so i never realy bothered to find the cause

No problems buddy. If its original clutch then in 93k personly I would be looking at getting it changed whenever i had the money if i remember correctly ep3 clutch change is about 300-350 quid. If you have only realy had it a day give it a bit longer for you to get used to having the car. The...

You only left it a day mate be a bit patient. what is the age and mileage on your car? from what you desctibed it doesnt seem like the clutch is causing a issue maybe its getting towards the end of its life but if all gears engage fine i wouldnt worry. my ep3 had 82k on the original clutch with...

would tdi north not be nearer than fleet chris or is there not much in it?

I had this problem when i had my ep3 you seem tpo have found the solution but try spaying the lock with some wd40 just to avoid it happening again

i have no room for yet another car lol so need to wait till mines sold saying that always looking out for a bargain

good price. would have enquired but im still trying to shift mine

easy way to tell is where the airbox is top right is a type r or a type s . sport is on the left

yeah as hasnic said take a picture of the engine and someone will be able to tell you what it is

its all very hush hush mate we do have a new civic onsite apparently but its all covered up and only certain people are allowed access to where its kept. im assuming we should be doing some new model builds soon though

never seen that done before ...well done

looks very tidy mate congrats

this your old one then dotty? best ep3 ive ever been driven in

diddnt that plate k20 cya belong to milano chris at somepoint?

Loving this project so far well done

try resetting the ecu

im keeeping a eye out at the moment been wanting to get rid of the impreza for ages i think a px would be my best bet so looking at fn2's. torn between a new car and saving for a house (mortgage) atm though lol just been on the connections website. some very interesting stuff on there :-p

Ive been looking around and the prices seem very varied. whats the going rate at the moment?. Ive seen a 07 plate milano with 20k on the clock at a garage for £12995 looks very tidy.

speedos are just a rough guide not a true reading lots of things can influence it. having bigger wheels for instance

http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?65755-Honda-Accord-type-R-2000-Pirates-Black-139800-miles-SOLD-PLEASE-REMOVE&highlight=simgoy that was his for sale thread.

nice choice chris my mate used to have one he was a member on here i will try to dig up some photos

check your tyre pressures

yes go for it for what you need it for you will love it. i work for honda and ive had a few of these as company car's fairly fast lots of room and good mpg i got 55 mpg easy and thats not slow driving. in terms of price i dont think they are much cheaper than the type r around 19k maybe a bit less.

cheers mate

very nice. makes me miss mine

can i have the t in my name changed to a capital T. cheers

mistakes happen mate as everyone said seems like you saved it in time

about 3 k overpriced but then again its bristol trade centre. i wouldnt expect it to be cheep

ahh right yeah i met james in warminster he was with a guy off that forum with a black golf with porka wheels

looks a very good project well done on doing it yourself very brave! you local to wiltshire then if you know james?

you are 100% right mate not sure whats going on with the interior maybe just a simple mix up with the photos.... as for the bumpers they are not the factory standard ones ( i work in swindon for honda) i would be very worried about crash repair. however saying that its a honda aproved car so you...

ive seen a photo somewhere of a possible i will see if i can dig it up. i remember the back looks very alpha ish!

looks very nice as for the wax it looks like it was quite a hot day maybe that had somthing to do with it.

could just be where you spilled a bit topping it up or previous owner. clean it out and see if it re-apears. i had the same thing on my ep3

certainly different i like the wheels not keen on the colour of the window tints and the de spoilered look suits it i think

drill a small drainage hole :-p

run some stuff through to clean the injectors?

thats a very very good price mate

just passed his driving test in the last year so 17-18

dunno why it says that mate but the ep3 has no cambelt as neily said they have a timing chain beauty of the engine most cars nowadays have chains instead of cambelts

my gf's little brother goes there. small world eh

if your going to spay the front you may as well save the extra cash and get the scratches done as well

haha i wish i had the option the scoob wont run on anything but the best

you will find most people run them on super unleaded its just all around beter for the car.

sounds roughly right around 300 a tank is good for a ep3 try using super unleaded instead of bog standard petrol and as you get used to the car you will learn how to get the most out of it and drive it more economicaly

not sure it will still be so clean for the meet at the end of the month though lol

around £4500 only 61k and cambelt and service done not long ago preety much a years mot. not advertised it yet as im still debating i think i want rid then we get a nice day and i get a chance for a proper blast and start to love it again lol. evos are the better car but i just love the scoobs...
