***Official What did you do to your EK today***

[nobbs]

niiceeee, those wheels look good, but mann goood luck findinf a oem rear lip lol

No worries... not really looking atm but will be once I get an exhaust happening (and once I can be bothered); atm i'm happy with how the car is.

Don't like tinted tail lights at all. You should remove that wing too.



Went for a run and one of the driveshafts popped out, disengaging them both. Was so worried I'd been given a shit gearbox.
Engine is running like a dog and wont rev above 3500 rpm. Just needs a few more sensors plugged in and should be ok.

Had the EK serviced today, found cracked trailing arm bushes.. Explains where the creaking sound is coming from.. $420 to get em replaced :/

Ahh, I got told the same thing on my EK about 18 months ago and they'd need replacing soon... but explains the creaks at the back then...

Can't you get an aftermarket set of Hardrace bushes - a couple of people on the forum have said these are pretty good...?

I think when I do my shock upgrade I'll get all the bushes replaced to tighten everything up once and for all.

Sounds like it's in limp mode.

Not running P/S or Aircon? Or are you installing them later

Yeah it's rev limited so definitely limp mode. I'll have to start working through all the CEL's if It's still on after I've connected everything and reset the ECU.
No P/S or aircon. Car came without air con from factory and I'm after a B16A2 P/S pump and bracket. Or perhaps a B18C power steering hose.

Your EK hose should connect up to an obd2 B18C pump too or any obd2 b-series pump

hardrace are fine from what I've read, ill be using them when I start redoing my bushes, if your worried tho you can get oem ones fairly cheap from oem Acura parts or lings, think the part # is 52385-S21-003 for the updated one or 52385-SR3-000 for the old one

where abouts did you get the headers from, and what brand are they?

[CivicRacer13]

there just cheap unknown brand headers from ebay,had the gasket blow where the 4 goes into 2 after about 8months since i put them in,couldnt get a gasket for it so i welded the joint together and problem solved and the colour turns shit after a few runs but thats just the cheap stainless steel i guess haha
