the car looks great after the cut and polish..you will have to come look! :grin:
Are you about on friday or saturday? I have the ECU stuff and manuals for you as well as all the papers.
If it is looking good then you had better make sure Liz doesnt see it. I am still getting stick for not letting her have the car!

idle control valve is a common one and easy fix. They normally just need cleaning up with carb cleaner every few years and refitting.

Better Mr Bingham, much better :)

I think that's a bit unfair you posting photos that show the cra in its true light. Poor Liz (Mrs MRS13) wanted this car for herself and she'll see what it looks like above and be doubly annoyed at the sale.

I shouldn't worry about a couple of little bits that need replacing when you consider how rare these are and how much fun it will be. Sorry, that sounded like me rubbing it in again!

Have you sorted the rear ride height out yet?

BLOODY CAR

Post by Rob_B »

right time for an update

more problem finding - rust sills and boot pan
fuel leak

why did i buy a an old honda again :roll:

on a positive note, the sills will be welded up at the end of the week as will the boot

the fuel leak should have also been sorted by pirtek by then too

all new springs have been fitted and new rear brakes are now on too

Nice set of skirts should hide the evidence shouldnt they (obviously the welding needs doing first lol).

Looks good though mate, cant wait to see this one. CRXs are getting very rare now.
