    Removing throttle body help

    Another hour of hateful trying but flat head screwdriver round the pipe a few times does the trick. Turns out the plug/sensor release clip is at the top end on the right hand side under the rubber in case anyone has same issues Sent from my Pixel 4a (5G) using Tapatalk

    Removing throttle body help

    Hey guys, Time has come for the throttle body to come off to clean the IACV. Only issue is I can't get one of the damn coolant pipes off or the plug at the base (see attached pic). Read a ton of posts and a seen few youtube videos but everyone seems to have no issue with this point. Anyone...

    Japfest Silverstone, Sunday 3rd May 2020

    Would be keen to jump on this for September. Club pass above doesn't work for me though :/ Anyone heard anymore if the stand is still available?

    Delrin bush install

    Got these and the one from the other thread on last night. Would have been a quick job but those split pins were a b!tch to get off. Great guide though! Reduced play in the box a fair bit. Not perfect, but an awesome improvement on a well loved/used, 15yr old shifter. Was weighing up the ktuned...

    A Couple of strange noises coming from my DC5

    Also double check the bolts on the subframe aren't loose regarding the creak.

    Power steering pump

    Used probably the best option. Give Hondanutz a call mate. https://instagram.com/hondanutz?utm_source=ig_profile_share&igshid=7r9129msp9w9 Or a specialist Hond-r, tgm etc. Dont forget to flush the power steering fluid out when you swap it too! Mine was rancid. Took 4/5 flushes before the...

    Newbie questions!

    Mine is kept on the drive and I've had no issues so far (hopefully won't have in future either!). I'm super paranoid, but at the end of the day if someone wants your car they'll have it. You can obviously buy deterrents such as clamps, locks and cameras for piece of mind. As mentioned, there's...

    BKR7EIX Spark Plugs

    They aren't compatible with K-series in general. I recall ordering some from Tegiwa (given they advertise them for K and B )for my old ep3. I had it in at Hond-R for some other bits and mentioned I'd ordered some but they informed me correctly. Sent them back and have always used IFRs since.

    Carbon Collective products

    For what it's worth, I picked up some of their products and got detailing last week. Here's a small review of stuff I tried if anyone is interested: Citrus cleanser: A pre-wash of sorts. Spray on before snow foam or instead of. Actually, really good stuff - just a minute of dwelling time and...

    Rear Caliper Sliders / Pins

    Whilst not Honda, the cheap refurb kits off ebay (I think Brakes International?) are pretty good quality. They usually come with replacement pins, boots, bolts and grease. I used a set on my old EP3 and couldn't fault them.

    Lazy guide to cleaning Recaro's- Woolite does it work?

    Great guide, cheers. Although my black recaros hide most of the filth, this will save spending money on some premium/specialised detailing products.
