They do have better seats

I don't know where it's from but I do know it's not meant to be like that. I'd suggest you remove it ASAP

:lol: Evo 1 - 0 Mark

Sucks man, anymore damage other than the bumper and exhaust? The body and bootlid look fine from the pictures

Nope, it's 6k standard, 4.5k-5k is normally after its been remapped Not a clue with this, any stored EML codes?

Loads, put "load detector" (including the "s) into the search That's the standard vtec cross over So when you turned it put the car into limp home mode?

When you put the registration number into the lings Honda parts finder it comes up with the parts for a standard facelift car not a premier edition car. I tried a known premier edition reg in the parts finder and it correctly got the premier parts, this was just to confirm the previous check...

You order it from a Honda dealership Loxy posted the price he paid 12 months ago in the link below http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?65480-Loxy-s-silver-FN2-GT-J-s-Braces&p=885060&viewfull=1#post885060

Not a clue, maybe pop a pm to hendy. As they're a Honda dealership they'll be able to find out I'd imagine

I've got a key code written in one of my owners booklets, but no key card

Honda need to seriously sack the designers, they keep making cars uglier every generation

The rules apply to every post made on the forum

I've highlighted the issues scouse will have spotted in bold To answer the question, the petrol gauge isn't accurate it's just an indicator as to the rough level of fuel remaining

top quote, I think my cars too modified for normal insurance companies and not quite modified enough for specialists.

You'll need to buy them separately

Here's a picture of a kpro from a k20 based engine, you can see the usb port on the opposite side to where the standard connections are You won't be able to see if its got a k100 unless you take the ECU out of the car and take the top cover off, you'd then see the extra board (similar to the...

I doubt it, as you said the fuel is filtered plus cars have their own fuel filter too

This type of thread is normally followed by a thread saying "I ran out of petrol" which is then followed by me PMSL Trying to run the car to the last few vapours in the tank is pointless, if you're getting low and you see a petrol station just fill it, it saves the embarrassment of running...

I thought buddy club and HKS are normally identified on the exhaust? Could be an eBay special if it’s not identified

If you're sure the fuse is fine then I'd be getting a volt meter and finding where I've got some voltage

looks awesome mark, how are you finding it so far?

White goes with red well

I just put up with it

http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?77042-Odd-rumble-when-exhaust-gets-drenched!&highlight=Vibration+rain Sounds similar to what's in that post?

133.9p/litre for unleaded at tesco 138.9p/litre for tesco momentum99 In south Cumbria

Tbh for it to have any meaning, you'd need to include what type of petrol

All I know is that TDI North are authorised zircotec dealers. Maybe have a chat with Paul

Nice to see my most viewed upload to YouTube is still being used

The advan ad08's are great on my civic, not sure how they'd cope with the increased torque and bhp of an evo

I'm with Elephant and its on my policy.

Who are you insured with? I thought it was standard with most insurance companies now

This, I ended up cutting the heads off the 3 bolts at the cat end because they were solid

Sounds like the Front splash shield, item 74111-S5S-G00 Item 7 on this drawing

You only wrote what I'd already said. You just worded it differently

Not according by http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/OwningAVehicle/Motorinsurance/DG_186696?CID=Continuous_Insurance&PLA=DM&CRE=Furl

No as long as its not parked on a public highway (eg parked on private property) it doesn't need to be insured. Although if it's then stolen you won't get anything as obviously it's not insured.

http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?42360-Why-can-t-I-create-a-new-thread-in-this-section says in the above link

It's 55 litres according by the brochure

If you're keeping the cat in then little to none IMO if you plan in the future to get a decat header than go for 2.5"

IMO just go with your initial thoughts and get 2.5" as above most the good aftermarket cat backs are 2.5" to 3"

I'll be honest, I saw a block of text and just didn't read it. Paragraph it and people might be more inclined to read it and offer help/advice.

Yes the work shoud be carried out FoC as its a safety recall In the recall thread http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?81131-FN2-Recall-Notice Some dealerships didnt seem to know about it so take note of the bulletin number in the pictures loxy posted (page 2 IIRC)

it wont

His and her evo's require a drag race at Santa pod

Very nice and very jealous

I'm guessing what you're noticing is the lack of torque, not sure on the Clio but the scooby is turbo'ed and has loads of torque. Type R's don't have as much torque so won't throw you back in the seat like a turbo'ed car will. Those mods should be fine with a standard ecu, you might have...

Just measure the diameter of the bolts you've bought I don't think you'll be able to get the bolts for the cat - bpipe joint, I don't think b&q etc stock bolts with the round heads with 2 flats that the OEM bolts have

Ive always wondered if they put extra strain on the gearbox with the shifting mech having little to no play

just curious but who said that and why? Pm me if you don't want to post it in here please

As above

Pics? Can't say I remember anything on mine but not 100% sure where you mean

As suggested above really These will need replacing, and the brake lines bled again As long as its going off, I wouldn't worry. It's only an advisory so doesn't need to be fixed for it to pass the mot These will need replacing, but again it was only an advisory so not required yet but plan to...

might be me but, no one actually said they don't run rich without a cat.

I'd guess it'll be people to set themselves to be invisible and not show as being online

I spy me :lol: Ditto mate, nice to finally meet you. Your car was looking quite good in the flesh.

Stoptech do big brake kits for most type r models, price varies depending what model type r you've got

In that case I'd love to check his insurance policy, what's the odds he's not told them about the mods.

With got 2 Honda dealerships on here now who'll both give you a good price. Hendy here http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?72345-**Tell-me-what-Genuine-Honda-parts-you-want**&goto=newpost Cox here...

The typhoon doesn't go into the front bumper, it sits in the engine bay sucking hot air in. Whatever you've got if its sat in the bumper then just leave it, you'll only end up moving it next to the gearbox/engine block by the sound of what you wrote

I think Chris meant a healthy standard car. Fcuked cars can do almost anything

Isn't that just the GP kit which was an optional extra?

Loxy, might be worth making a sticky post in the FN2 section with this info like the ep3 section has, as I can see this question becoming increasingly common

Limited slip differential http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limited-slip_differential

Why would they only make contact during cornering? If they were going to foul on the wheel they'd do it all the time and you can see in the picture he's got a few mm to spare

About £20 from camskill, just google them loads of places sell online

PIAA Silicon wipers are excellent IMO

Getting some ad08's fitted tomorrow ready for my croft track day next week

Paint it, that's what most do

Well orange side lights aren't normal to my knowledge, I'd be surprised if they'd pass an mot tbh. As for your dipped, go and look HIDs are rather easy to spot as you'll have a ballast mounted somewhere and they'll need warming up before reaching optimum brightness

Are your indicators white?

Get the EML read http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?60760-Engine-management-light-on-self-diagnosis.

Honda say to do it this way but I doubt it actually matters, just make sure your reservoir doesn't get empty

When WD40 doesn't work I will but if it ain't broken, don't fix it

I just sprayed some WD40 in mine, that quietened it

Iirc the switch is the same on both pre-facelift and facelift gof light kits Visit tHe traders section and ask hendy Honda for a fog light switch for the pre-facelift and they'll get you a price http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?72345-**Tell-me-what-Genuine-Honda-parts-you-want**

If slight noses bother you then turn the radio up ;)

Is the EML on? Why didn't you fix it before modifying?

Suspension top mount?

Adjust the valves only when the cylinder head temperature is less than 38°C (100°F).

The only difference is the one you get has 6 gears rather than the 5 geared one pictured

Quick search for Dash & light and this pops up, this should answer your question http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?55522-EP3-Dash-Bulb-Replacement&highlight=Dash+light

You don't own this car do you?

Ask for cash and put it towards funds for your listed mods?

Kendal Honda, part of the cox motor group. As loxy, I even arranged to drop it off the night before and get a courtesy car. Are they part of the cox motor group? I should have done tbh, mine won't be going back to Kendal Honda anymore. I'll get TDI or Stevie to check at the next service.

I'd still go to TGM, I had my last service done at Honda and they shoud have checked the valve clearances but I know they didn't.

Momentum for me is 5p a litre cheaper :D plus I get another 5p a litre off each time I spend over £50 in tesco

You won't be able to correct the paint fade by detailing it, you'd have to polish the lacquer off before getting a new layer of red paint. Most red EP3's will be going pinkish now and owners can't do much to prevent it unless its been resprayed

I've got ds2500 and I'd say they're about OEM at cold, mine don't squeal either.

Im assuming by your username you're talking about an EP3, lots of models of CTR's have been released. Get a KPro or K100 and have it custom mapped by someone who knows what they're doing, if they get it wrong your engine could go bang. Research who you're taking it to well A new kpro is about...

I was laughing at someone at croft yesterday, he had a golf and in the usual fashion decided to sit it on the floor. After everyone was parked in the field, croft decided to put some hay down to absorb some water and with the ruts generated by hundreds of cars going in and out his car had...

Depends how many miles you've covered in those 4 weeks but it's certainly possible
