    i was thinking of a 15 inch wheel the same as the 1s i have also, its the bigger ofset studs that catch me though, i will look around though, even a swap might be handy

    i just need to get the gf pressies tomorrow, and im done
    as for me, just 2 tyres for the prelude and shes sorted, for this side of xmas anyway

    im well mate, and yourself??

    my car was missing the last 2 weeks (demented)
    it got the bushes last week and the timing belt this week, but shes sweet now, you cant hear the thing ticking over, and the cornering is something else

    i did get a set of rims and they suit the car, but im selling them
    everone i talk to says that il regret putting them on the car
    especially since its lowered

    i can understand them as i had 17s on my coupe before and there is no comfort in them

    they do look nice and handeling of the car is improved
    but mate, if you were ever in ireland or plan to come here, you'll understand me when i say, the roads are brutal

    ive been over to liverfool a few times and the roads ye have over are something else, if we had them rds over here, i would put 17s on, but we dont, so im only looking for trouble with them on

    are you all set for xmas???
    what pressies are santa bringing you for your car??

    hi mate

    well good news on the power, my injectors were blocked
    a bit of spectrum d sorted that
    the blow noise was my back box riddled with pinholes, funny how it travlled all the way out my engiene bay though
    anyway, i have 1 more noise now and its either a power steering pump or the pully for the air con

    the noise is not there in the morning = cold, but when it heats up its there
    when i turn the wheel in stopped traffic, the noise changes as if its the power steering pump, but got 2 fellas to have a look at it and they rekon its the a/c pulley making noise

    now my a/c is never used and dosent have gas in it either, plus theres a vibration coming through the a/c pipes so they rekon get a smaller belt and bypass the a/c pulley
    they said its a cheap way to find out if its that

    so im not upset or paronoid anymore, if its either of them i dont care as long as the engiene is ok which to be honest is perfect since i cleaned my injectors
    il just wait for that problem to go BANG and fix it then

    thanks prince for your concern
    JDM for life, right??

    thats nice, lowered civic with 17 wheels
    had the same thing done when i had mine

    as for the prelude
    ive put a new thread up about loss of power,and today have another problem
    theres a noise coming from the engiene,

    its like a blow noise,the same as when an exhaust has a hole in it
    had a mechanic(mate) call round for a look
    he reckons i have a blow in the exhast manifold or somewhere around the engiene ( hopefully says i)
    i must call out to his work tomorrow and he'll put it on ramp, even fix it there and then (thats if its what we think it is)

    ive never got a blow in an exaust like this before, so i dont know if thats the problem
    he also said, thats why you could have lost power in the 1st place

    anyway, before this message turns into a book, il let you know tomorrow what it was
    nice job on the coupe also
    and before my computer broke, you were having a bit of bother
    hope thats all sorted for ya, mate
