Value Sports Type2 sideskirts - worth repairing?
If the damage is minor, the fibre glass repair is quite easy. Just clean up the surfaces, scratch them up (inside) so the resin has something to bite into. Others will have more knowledge, but less hardener in the resin makes it set slower and stops it overheating and curing too quickly which tended...

SRS light
Have you performed the continuity tests with the 'clock spring' unplugged (both from the car and from the airbag side)? Do all the wires have continuity from the back side to the front side? If you are not sure on electricity, a simple youtube search should show you how to perform a continuity test....

Sooty residue in the exhaust
I think it's pretty normal. Since the h22 gets through a fair amount of oil, it doesn't surprise me the exhaust is full of carbon/soot.
My garage door is covered. I park with the tips about 4 inches away from the door, and it always gets splattered on startup.

Hardly an inspiring range, is it?
The 'New Cars' section of the Honda website is very uninspiring. I guess the UK Market has dwindled for them, people have obviously been drawn to the aspirational and fashionable brands, or the cheaper ones. The advice of the previous generation (buy a reliable honda) must fall on deaf ears. No coup...

Little gathering at dynodays one Saturday?
it's just a printout normally, you sometimes get 2 runs back to back, so not really any tinkering time really. drive car onto dyno, they strap it down, check the oil, ask you if the car is going to blow up, stick some fans in front of the rad, hook up a probe to the ht lead , warm it up a little bit...

website says the dyno is only 2WD (i'm just assuming all scoobys are 4wd)

Rust under Spare Wheel
I believe the missing bung will allow water in much more than you think. Whilst driving, water will track up under the car and turbulence/airflow will blow it into the car. You could probably find the bung on amayama parts listing. If the rust isn't too deep or bad, I'm sure a bit of wire brush acti...

Coolant pipe, radiator cap, bonnet cable
Also worth checking no one has adjusted the rubber bonnet stays also. These affect the bonnet gap when closed, you can screw them in and out to adjust the pre-load on the catch slightly. Over time the rubber can shrink and go hard and need a slight adjustment. If you've hit the mech with brake clean...

Little gathering at dynodays one Saturday?
Thought there would be some more interest for this - it's relatively central. If it helps get the numbers up I can bring 2 cars lol.

Yeah, I'd be up for that. I think I went once about 15 years ago in a rover turbo, good times lol.
