    Funny noise.

    Ive noticed on a few occasions a buzzing noise like a proper bzzzz like a cheap door bell noise or to describe it better its a proper noise rather than a vibration noise. It sounds like it comes from below the steering wheel and on the right. I notice it mainly when braking and slowing to a...

    Ipad2 or ?

    So was giving a little thought to getting an Ipad2 for travelling about and web surfing in the house rather than the laptop. Any thoughts on it or its competition?

    A while back at the Scottish meet in Perth 1 of the guys had the Apexi Rev Speed Metre fitted. Just wondered if anyone else has one and how they find it? I am looking at it as well as the Greddy Infometre/ Infometre touch.

    On Sunday night when idle I could hear a rattle from the exhaust that went away with any revs. So today I had it in at an exhaust company that I know who suggested that the problem was the baffle within the centre box had come loose and was vibrating. They say its not an urgent problem at the...

    Track day lap time sheets?

    Maybe a daft question and probably differs from track to track but do you get a lap time sheet like you do at a 1/4 mile drag session at a track day? If not how do others note their lap times?

    Kakimoto exhaust

    I've discovered today that the joint/flange where my back box meets the center section (behind rear drivers wheel) has a blow in it. It looks to have originaly been sealed with putty (gun gum or similar idea) which worked but has gone hard and brittle now and blown out of it now. So question is...

    Blue H Badges

    I am looking for some little simple mods for the car and thought about getting some H badges for the front and rear (and maybe wheels) that are blue rather than red. I found these on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Honda-type-r-badg ... 1e5bde0160 but it lists as not fitting past 2000 cars but...

    Stirling (Scotland) based newbies.

    Hi folks. My gf and myself are in the middle of buying our first Integra. It's a 2004 pre-face lift in Artic Blue (hope that's the right colour). It's an 04 with 28k miles. Totally standard from what I can tell other than a Kakimoto cat back system. Very nice & tidy car for the age. Should be...
