Just by the foot blowers - I got damp patches on the carpet. Looks like it's moisture blowing through the foot vents off the aircon. Is that what it is? Moisture in the aircon system? Aircon works nicely enough and when I stop the car after using the aircon - it has a wee on the road like it...

Pretty sure I've got a dead wheel bearing - rear nearside - can feel play in it and it's noisy. Is it just a case of changing the bearing or is it a complete new hub? Some car manufacturers make them so the bearing is integrated into the hub. Kinda hoping Honda aren't one of them.....! :shock:

I've been playing around with pressures trying to get something to balance the car up and I've deicided with 33 in the front and 31 on the rear for road use. Definately over 31 on the rear and it starts getting a bit floaty at the back, especially when the tyres have warmed up (pressure...

I've been mulling over what to do next for a few months, nosing around club rsx and K20.org etc trying to do some research for myself because people in the know here seem to act like government agent secret squirrels. Thought about cams but not overly sure about them: - Driving style will...

Got the Alcantra material to repair my seats and found a local trimmer place who are going to do two side bolsters and one side wing for £85 + VAT. Result. Now - I need to swap my seats over temporarily - do I just unbolt the whole god damn lot and switch them over or do I have to keep the...

God dammit I hate the material on these Recaro's seats. I've got my very first tear in the material - the rib cage bit of the driver seat. So, here's the solution - I'm going to have them re-trimmed in PROPER leather. The stuff that doesn't wear out, or stain or mark. Going to talk to...

I've just asked Kwik Fit (yeah yeah, I know) to tell me what the difference was between RE010's and RE040's. We use the RE040's, DC2's use the RE010's. Well - they didn't know so they rang Bridgestone technical to ask them directly as I sat down to earwig on the conversation. Upshot is -...

I've rather stupidly caught the stump of my driveway security post and it's mashed the flexipipe on the Toda. F'in pee'd off aint the words. :evil: Anyway, i think Toda supply replacement flexi pipes - anyone ever replaced one as yet? Going to need to find a pretty damn good welder I...

Graph - http://www.kore.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/RRday/Merlin-HondaIntegraTypeR.pdf I thought it may make around 240 bhp, but it made 232.4bhp (corrected). I had bought some Octane Booster but in the rush to get out the house completely forgot it. I was also going to reset the ECU but again...

Really feckin annoying! Car is squeeking from the engine bay area shortly after changing gear. It's not the clutch because it doesn't squeek at standstill, only when moving and in gear. It's when changing gear - a squeek when I press the clutch and a squeek when I lift it, but there's a bit...

Well I've been a DC5 owner now for two months. Two bloody expensive months at that, but worth every penny ;) Bought her from a dealer in Bristol, I remember turning up with my brother - went straight over and started nosing around looking for problems - half an hour later - couldnt find a god...

Decided I want to keep my stock airbox, i've got the spoon drop-in in it. Insurance is a pita so I'm decided I want to buy one of those thingmajigs that re-directs the air to the stock airbox. Sorry for the crap explanation but i think 5zigen do an intake piece and some other company do one...

Ok, from stock my car now has a HKS cat back and I opted for the Spoon Drop In filter after talking to Tom @ CPL about noise and modifying engine bay etc. So...what's next? I'm thinking decat all the way, then after that i'll go to Jakan and get the geometry done. If decat it is - which one...

Ok, i've just bought a 2004 DC5, pick it up Wednesday. :) I'm going to go for a HKS exhaust, had a chat to mikegsi and he described the noise as exactly what i'm after (growl when you boot it, no ear bleeding when you're just pootling around). However, not a bloody clue what i'm doing on the...
