I thought I'd post this up here for people to just be nosey at. I can't take credit for the write up, but have a read....:cool: The pictures honestly do not do the car justice now imo. The paint feels so smooth it's unreal. I haven't felt paint so smooth on a new car in all honesty...

Hi guys and gals! Got my car through its first mot today, passed with flying colours! Also had a full service, so the car feels like new now. I was talking to the mechanic, saying i wanted to put a sport manafold and a bigger exhaust on it, and his words where, and i quote! ''Its already...

Polished this Integra with Autoglym High Gloss polish (black label). Highly recommended at the price (both car and polish!) and made this car and the 330 Conv look superb. Recommended as a quick fix too - I don't have all day like some of you guys!

My car is now back from Ben, who fitted cams, modifed inlet and a re-map. His only concern was that as the car has only done 4,000 miles, all on the ex-factory full synhthetic oil, that the rings may still not be fully bedded in - wants me to use ordinary mineral for a while - and so installed a...

K-tec are no longer stocking Orbisound Exhausts. They are selling off their last 4 systems for the 182, 2 race and 2 soft, and they also have one backbox for the 172 if anyone is interested.

As above http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/184315.htm Anyone on here? If so it would be interesting to know what was involved in the conversion in terms of parts, complexity and cost as people have enquired about this previously iirc.
