Giggidy.... :fondle: Can be a right f ucker them spigot rings, hammer and flat head in the notches, or apply some heat, also try winding them the opposite way. If that dont work then i would get some new ones, Jom are a bit naff anyway tbh so they could be at the end of there 2/3 year life span.

Yer that would be a hell of a road trip bro, thanks man ill bare that in mind.

As title really, Its to be re-trimmed so any water damage or stains dont matter, just as long as its structurally sound. Obv as they are so flimsy you cant post it so local/close to oxford would be ideal. Sound

G60 Corrado - Barn find but how much to offer?
EJ Taylor replied to Craig Lovelock's topic in General Car Chat
I would stay away, they demand enough cost when on the road, let alone that, sounds like a mammoth task and you would get one tax'd and mot'd on the road for 1500 -

Strut brace - worth having? same fitment as MK2 golf?
EJ Taylor replied to MZpog's topic in Drivetrain
yes look and feels great. However, mine was a mk2 one, and would apparently "go straight on" but it didnt, and i had to chop it up and weld a new pipe in to make it fit... -
where did this guy pipe up from? haha Bit steep! ~Unless u meant David.. in that case.. BAN HIM!!!!!

See, i told you, dont go near the Panjo! And it was a joke Jimothy, a theoretical naughty corner... :bonk: At least 7 mins for that out burst! :norty:
-
Nothing to do with me mate, i didnt say nufin' duno what your on about :study:
-
I agree Panjo is awful and has not been a great addition to the forum. Although mentioning this may upset one of the greater powers and ultimately land you in the naughty corner. (they are very protective about their Panjo)
-
dude im game for this! pm me :D
-
Nice C bro!

Yer, i get it for free so that why i did mine ha. 8)

-
excuse my idiocy, but largers tape? and what joints?
-
also be sure to wear gloves, you dont realize it till after but the foil edges are Stanley blade sharp, and after you have finished you will notice loads and hair line slits in your hands and fingers

couldn't be more right, from road noise to shutting the door, makes an all round more solid feeling car (somehow)
-
ssshhhhhhhhhh dont tell anyone.. just keep making lawnmower jokes and hope no1 notices haha
-
Of corse i bloody do, haha, yer not to mention im 17st so thats not a great help.. and all the audio i have going in there, and the MDF box we are building to contain the W3s ha. Its a loosing battle ha, and he kind of owns one of if not the best Honda tuning companies in the country. But hey, all in the name of race car. haha (and i swear its a 2.2.. oh well bloody lawn mowers all the same ent they)

[ATTACH=CONFIG]81459[/ATTACH] Thats when i did my doors, this is silent coat, out skin, and both sides of inner skin. Below is the entire floor, first stage as you will see was from the seats back, i then continued to do the whole thing [ATTACH=CONFIG]81455[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]81456[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]81457[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]81458[/ATTACH]

Agree with jim, Dynamat extreme is the only way to go imo, slightly lighter than the normal stuff but well worth it, sticks like sh*t to a blanket too, so you dont have to worry about it coming of... ever. They do a bulk pack of 36sqm that should get you started, some sellers i have seen even chuck in a little roller as well, anywhere around the £100 mark is reasonable price. If coming unstuck is something you are concerned about then i really wouldnt go anywhere else, although acoustic values may not differ greatly the other brand use cheaper bitumen that does dry out and loose stick over time, yet with dynamat it seems to weld itself in place once it has been on there a while. As far as where is concerned due to the corrados awful acoustic design with the speakers being mounted to the door cards not the door itself you may get a slight sound improvement from completely doing both door skins, but just the external one your main improvement will be a noticeable reduction in road noise, as with the roof. I will find some links to when i did mine.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]81454[/ATTACH] Not just any Honda haha

yer the different length shafts are a bit of a b*tch 6 gears scare me, i already sail past the speedo far more than i should, i dread to think what i would be like with another gear to hit :bonk:
-
As always a very appreciated response Kev, thank you! :thumbleft: That first bit might be an issue as the ABS is coming out as some point! But ill be sure to do what you said in the ways of reinforcement and look into getting a spare box as some mentioned, tbh the car only does about 2/3k a year so the second box wont be a high priority.

Not at all its a valid question, Going up in power is not something i am doing till next year i just want to make sure what ever i do when i do the diff wont require further work when i come to do it all. An increase in power could yet prove unneeded but i doubt ill be satisfied once the diff is done. i can quite happily get off the line from 1st to 5th with no spin, and i would rate my driving abilities as above average however im very very limited by the traction an open diff can achieve and im limited by the car, and i know once the diff is done ill end up back here wanting more power. So its hard to directly answer your question, A close friend of mine is running 440bhp taken back to 400bhp on his 2.2ltr fn2 V-tech engined prelude S and that things a monster, obviously they already come with a lsd, but thats what power i want, a pull from 60-70 like mine does from 30 just an all out animal. But i guess if you apply logic then my entire car is pointless, it has a half roll cage (pointless) a stupidly tuned engine and soon to be fitted light weight Recaro Speeds, to then chuck in half a tons worth of audio (pointless) then the awesome KW suspension, wound to the floor with about 1mm of travel (pointless) i guess logic and principles are not relevant in any aspect of the build, i just want to build something awesome and mental and completely pointless. A roll caged, audio filled, stance slammed, drag, track monster. So i guess its for bragging rights, going faster and just for the sake of building an awesome car that will make me happy and i will love.
