Yep, according to a few gps's and the iPhone etc...Mine is spot on!

JohnO.....I wouldn't rely on the RTA speed checkers too much.....

BTW, on my Accord running factory spec size, I am out 6-7 kms under at 110km

to be exact , when you use the above tyre the speedo will be +1.5% off. So at 100km/h you are actually doing 101.5km/h take heed !

yeah but with stock speedo, when it says you are doing 100kph, you are only doing a little less. which means by going to 215 you are correcting this "error" and being closer to real 100kph than stock size.

all sorted! i'm amazed at how quickly and efficiently the police dealt with it. they got in contact the owner of the taxi & i'll be dropping by tomorrow to sign a stat dec and obtain his details/accident report.
i did call the owner to touch base with him and see what he had to say. he didn't admit to anything, but he was quite adamant that I get my car fixed at his taxi panel shop (get f#*ked). "your car will be all fixed in half a day" BS!
sadly they police can't charge the driver for leaving the scene of the accident, as I didn't have a witness name or a specific time (there was a shift change within the hours I specified). oh well, at least now the ep gets fixed!

wow just went through the whole dr honda engine build thread *DrooLS*

i came. steve hes got the same tubing for the gruppe m as you! how many hp gain if i give up the crappy plastic one for the metal??

I got an immobiliser installed today but the guy who did it didn't link up the central locking to it. I tried to explain to him that i want to only have 1 remote not an immobiliser and honda one for central locking.

Do any of u guys know if its hard to hook up the central locking to an immobiliser? Also maybe hook up the indicators so it will blink when i lock and unlock the car (i know this immobiliser has this function).

That kinda shit can only be handed down from one legend to another and cannot be bought! So has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Oh i see what you did there.

With the alarm issue, the remote should be the only thing used to unlock/lock and arm the car. they should also wire it up to the indicators front side and rear. if not then get a refund and take it to an audio shop or tell them to do their jobs seriously.

I'm planning to buy RE11 (205/45/17) from the states.

I was quoted $957.61 delivered via FED Economy (3-5 days) which converts to approximately $1050- $1100 with today's AUD-USD currency.

Just curious to know what you guys think of the price?
