So far today has been fun, full report a little later.

Thanks for stopping by Z00key!!

All good must say car looks like a bargain for the price despite needed some work but should still come out on top after all work done and registered. Maybe if some of the nice guys here will let you put up on hoist and give you an under the car report in exchange for a hug or cold one (or even beer)

Ok, So. Z00key and I went to supercheap and picked up some stuff. Charged up my battery and fitted a battery brace. Thought we'd shaved off enough of the screw.... (unfortunately we were wrong) 2 new dents on the hood :D, but with the car now starting, we went for a spin, all was good, car's running well, then it was time to try out Z00key's Integra, upon returning from a ~3minute drive, we were greeted by my driveway...covered in coolant. Not sure what the issue is, but the car stopped leaking shortly after, I cleaned off the coolant and the car stopped leaking, not sure if it's a hose, radiator or if it was over-filled.

Had to meet the Wife for Lunch, I'm home now, about to fit new wiper blades.

And yes,

I give nice hugs :D .

I've never used that stuff, only toothpaste and elbow grease but can't see how you'll stuff it up

PS morning all

I use Autosol personally.

Morning you beautiful bastards!

So, Upon starting the car this morning (to see if the battery held its charge, which it didnt, the coolant leak returned. So Im thinking cracked/loose hose possibly? the leak only occurs while the car is running.

Sounds like you better get your head in there for a look

    • No requirement for JDM vehicles,  which the 33 is, maroney label only needed in the US market for new cars I believe (Federal law stuff) Google knows all
    • Hopefully you can just unbolt them, thank them for their service, then bin them and not replace them Apparently the sensors like to set them off with only minor impacts at low speed It looks like they do a delete kit for some of these, but, it is costly 
    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
