ok ok i did get to work a bit on the honda today. Have the dash out and the loom is getting smaller and smaller which is a very good thing. Got the 2 poster ramp booked for monday and tuesday in the club so the engine will be coming out then. I'll make sure I have my camera with me

here ya go





these are not required at the moment



A bit tidier than when i started

[captainjack15]

Good work


Will you be using the old Honda dials?? Or will you be using a digital dash??

Keep it up! And don't forget the camera or I'll be very disappointed

[ginger_monkey]

haha I'll try. Wanting to use standard clocks to keep it as normal inside as poss.

[captainjack15]

Oh right!

You may need to get them re-calibrated as the pick up will be different will they not?

[ginger_monkey]

yeah, am gonna look into this


from somewhere like these people. Just need to have a look around this country to see if they do them here first

[captainjack15]

Oh right, thats a good invention!

Have a look on Speedy Cables too!

[ginger_monkey]

got a message back from speedy cables. They don't do anything like this so will have to keep looking. Today was ok. Got the engine to the point of removing just got stuck on the rear engine mount as some bolts really didn't want to come out so i thought I'd leave it for the day and go in fresh tomorrow. Nearly broke my big braker bar trying to remove the driveshaft hub nuts. Wow they didn't want to come off. More pics to follow tomorrow.

Good work

I got a reply from Speedy Cables today too

[ginger_monkey]

ok after alot of swearing and throwing things about the engine is out. Every last bolt was rusted, clip wouldn't unclip and pipe wouldn't let go. Can't really say that I know where every last pipe and cable came from so putting it back together will be a bit more interesting. Can't believe that there so many hidden brackets and clamps holding the dam thing in. Honda really didn't want you to take it out





hummm might need lowering


and got some shiney stuff through. Not 100% sure the rad will fit but worth a try as it was better than half price

[captainjack15]

Ohhhhhhhhhh shiney!! Woop

Thats just reminded me, I need to get some adjustable bottom arms

[ginger_monkey]

got the adjustable tie bars, bottom arms and rear camber brackets from huddersfield spares for £99 bargin

[captainjack15]

Morean, Ohhhh she's cheap!!

[ginger_monkey]

thanks to billy boy83 for some sound advice. might be changing the tie bars... Today got a quick hour in the honda getting at the loom. It's close to coming out. All the stuff back to the bulkhead has been removed to get at it but I'm nearly there. if I go to it tomorrow I'll get some pics up.
