BB1 Scrapyard Dog - Mugen sides

[wurlycorner]

Yep, the rings can be a bit brittle after all this time though ime, don't always come off/go back on without breaking, so easiest just to find the right one to start with?

i see youve also bought another 4th Gen
whats the plans?

agreed about abs ones - ive tried to get the rings off one before and it was rusted solid-i guess some heat would free them up but its one less thing to do if i can get the right ones in the first place

cheers for the info merc

Just noticed you got this..

Looks like you have saved another and what a spec it's got out of the factory .. Good work on it too

Imo I think you should find some oe wheels and stick them on it to keep the standard looking theme going strong with this one..
Very nice car

cheers @JEBB4
its a big slice of Honda OEM goodness!
ive got a set of 15" oem fan blades that need a refurb but they are maybe just a bit on the plain side so ideally id like a set of diamond cut saw blades
im quite happy to run with 15" wheels

Wow Nick. Great buy. great work too.

Thanks for the kind comments

Managed to get the cd changer fitted and the cable routed nicely from the center console to the dsp/head unit.
Just needed to put the double din dsp back into place and that would be it complete - but somehow managed to fit the double din upside down and its wedged in place - looks like i will have to take the whole console apart to get it out
cant believe ive mucked it up at the last step

whew its all fixed now
had to take the front console apart to get it out-plugged it all back in and then the eq settings wouldnt come up - gave it a minute to warm up and tried again and this time they appeared - wiped the sweat from my brow and breathed a sigh of relief
gave it a blast of Hendrix and it does sound quite a bit better than the standard set up
mega loud

i must go to Boots The Chemist and get my eyes tested this week

I needed one CV joint in order to complete a full set of driveshafts so bought this off ebay - initial impression is the parts look to be of reasonable quality and good value for what i paid. The ebay seller even phoned to check reg and vin to ensure correct part sent.

Is the splined section shorter on the new one? I fitted one a while back and it is, so the nut does not go fully where I'd like.

[vanzep]

Nope spline is the same length - only difference i can see is the thread on the comline one is a full thread and the thread on the oem one stops just before the spline section.
The splines on the atr driveshafts i have here are shorter by 5-10mm so maybe you got ones that were for atr - a lot of sellers on ebay seem to say all H22 cv joints are the same which they arent.

Will post up once they are fitted
