Welcome aboard mate

Thats a tidy looking CB7 you got
Great choice for a first car too,theyre well put together that generation of Honda
Good economy,comfy and no need to worry if you have a little bump or two which is bound to happen in your beginning years on the road

You can replace the thermostat cheaply yourself with even basic mechanical skill.If you need advice just ask here

Does it whine when you turn/steer the wheel or only when revving?

And what did UltraTune do to the car?

ps. never go there again,theyre crooks and idiots :)

Yeah its hard to tell from the vids.

Did UltraTune do anything to the engine or steering?
Has it only started after they worked on it?
If it was doing it beforehand it might be the powersteering pump bearings or even air bubbles in the system
Make sure the fluid level is spot on,not over or under

Well one of my seals behind the timing cover it is a honda thing they say -.-and all my oil was dumping on teh floor straight out of motor so take it to the... they replace all seals and timing belt (a timing belt kit). 2 weeks alter my water pump went and now the belts whine badly and that odd bearing sorta owl noise.

Damn I bet they raped you for all that work.Theyre expensive as hell

It sounds like the belts might not have been tightened enough

The CB7 is the Honda I grew up with.......

My family bought one and when I was old enough to drive, it was mine.....


I'm a lifetime Honda fan because of the CB7.

What I love, you can just throw stuff on top of the dash...

Would be good if I could one day own one again....

Ive driven a 4ws prelude, seemed to make parking easier, i think the system only works at low speeds so i only noticed it parking/doing U-turns etc but it did feel quite nimble compared to the normal 2ws prelude.
