Haha, yeah wd40 and cable ties are good mates too [^]

Have the front shock absorbers off now, hopefully will have the lowering springs on over the weekend.

Got the rear trailing arms off now aswell, just have the rear shock absorbers to remove.

I finished the final coats on the calipers and undersealing the arms inbetween the showers. The calipers turned out well i think, not sure if i should lacquer them or not?? if anyone wants to advise. :hmmm)

Got tyres on the wheels aswell, hope they are worth all this converting

Treated myself to some new Teng tool kits and breaker bars that were on sale, sure they'l llast me 10years and ith the sale prices I said sure why not. If i buy any more stuff i could open a mechanics shop, ha :happy)

That's some going there. Nice to see it done well.

It'll definately pay off.

What meet is this now, the 5th July Bishopscourt event?? I only looked in the meets forum there now, thats a good idea of a place for a meet, kill 2 birds with the 1 stone. Yeah, i should have the car well and truly finished by then so yeah i probably will head up to it.

Hondas in general look class when lowered, im only lowering it 40mm all round as its pretty low standard, i want to get an Eg civic lip for the front aswell, make it seem even lower.

Haircuts including a cr-x discount start at €8 a head, i cant guarantee you'll have a head when im finished [][)]

Front Teg hubs on and calipers/disks, new brake pads with backs smeared with copper grease, hub nuts, retaining disk screws, etc etc,,, and torqued according to Honda's delsol service manual

Waiting on lowering springs, hopefully they'll fit in around the hub handy enough, probably would have made sense to put them in 1st but i decided to keep going.
