I guess we've all had this problem at one time or another, but no need to be ashamed. Getting dug into trying to sort out some bodywork issues and saw a great video on youtube for problematic bolt removal, well worth a look... I've had similar issues to rsmithinfo (great write ups by the way...

i.e. something like this with plenty of lift...

Always thought the only way to jack up the car was using the 4 jacking points (as per Fox's Pic) but actually there are lots of points on both the sub-frame and even parts of the suspension components, the key thing is to understand what is stuctural (a bit of a diffcult thing to convey without...

Hi Kaz, Welcome to the forum, not sure I can help so much but over the last couple of years my central locking has become somewhat patchy, i.e. mainly not locking drivers side and have been having to use the key. Recently it has become a bit more obstructive to lock with the key aswell. I...

A blue car This just caught my attention, looks quite tasty! Could do with a little runaround whilst i get some work done on my the DC5.

Stunning car Wocka, I really should use this downtime to really go to town on the engine bay!

Nice one, A great thing to do with the kids, you might have to hand it over to them one day though... :( Welcome to the forum Wyred

It's a double whammy, you are now the owner of a DC5, so you're pretty much, a much a better person than 99% of the driver's on the road and you're also from YORKSHIRE, so you are in the seriously privelidged elite - 0.0001%. Try to resist the inherent persuation to run her on red diesel and...

Seems to be quite a difference in opinion here, I'm looking at getting a daily driver to allow me to work on the car without worrying about how I get from A to B. I've looked at the stormforce aswell for about £160, This was a bit alarming Carl,I want a cover to protect the car, not mess it...

I've recently fitted Ferodo DS2500 pads to my rears (alongside a full caliper refurb) and no problems whatsoever. Paid £75 from Tegiwa. Just one minor issue which might actually be down to the fitter (i.e. me), The anti-rattle / anti-squeak clips that where removed from the old pad seemed too...

Here it is. Think the link only lasts about 3-7 days though... https://we.tl/t-rBxYloLmXu It says its Acura RSX, but I'm sure it's pretty much bang on for the JDM DC5 45MB by the way, and i've used it multiple times for servicing and ordering parts, Kudos to 'Dynomite 2009' for the original...

Nice one, welcome to the family! :xhappy:

Embarrasing question.. I took the holding nut off, is that all I need to do to get the wiper arms off? Seemed to be still pretty well much attached, can I just rive it off, probably like most of the parts on this car, just needs gentle persuasion from a lump hammer! Could not see anything about...

Thanks for all your hard work Simon, really is a great place and full of helpful enthisiasts. Would be more than happy to contribute financially. Cheers, Dave. xthumbup

Nice Work Dave, I've got mine on the 'to do' job list, seems like quite an easy win, will probably go with the laquer..

A few weeks ago the car developed a metallic grinding noise that was on/off and would respond to steering and braking inputs, although not neccesarily for the better, managed to locate it to the front disk splash guards and after wheels off and a good fettle with some wire brushing and a bit of...

Oh no! That must of been particulary painful at 17 yrs old, £300 is a lot of money at that age! Correct, I will definately start looking into this a bit more, now that i'm a detailing expert! :blink:

1st off, Thankyou to all the people who make and run this forum, and to all the members who contribute, I've had invaluable advice over the years so, a big shout out to this community! I've always been a bit of a noob to car maintenance and now feel comfortable sharing with with such a great...

Send it off to NGK for an explanation?? Pretty sure they would be happy to assist and arrest potentially damaging reputation threads like this, and hopefully give you a lifetime supply of (genuine?) plugs!

I might be entirely wrong here, but I think this could be a special feature of the integra :xgrin: AFAIK these cars feature a lightened flywheel, this allows for a much better throttle response but because it does not have the mass it makes low speed/low revs driving more problematic. Taken to...
