and any ideas as to why my front passenger wheel is squeaking/squealing at really low speeds like the brake pads not
fully releasing the rotor? it only just happened for the first time dismorning and I'm wondering if theres anything I should get from repco at lunch to be able to fix it up tonight. sorry that's all I've got to go on at the moment.

mines doing that to apparently its according to dad the wear mark saying change ur pads but i dont know if thats right ill let u kno on saturday

i wouldnt be surprised the car gets driven hard most days and ive had mine for a while and never looked at the brakes so ill let u know...

as for hondata
whats the diff between s300 and s200 besides 50 bucks u get anti lag, and a few others and its got usb data logging etc. its worth the 50 i think

but i think i should do it right the first time and not learn from my mistakes coz i hate rebuilding motors and i try not to open things up if i dont have to... ive learnt from my supra thats enough learning for me i think

i think the map sensor will be alrite and im nearly certin the injectors would b fine to....

but im in perth and i dont know who tunes these other types of ecu....

its just like the supras gettin the engine management the greddy ecu is cheap but no one can tune it there fore u spend more money gettin some muppet to try tune it and u rebuilding a motor 4 times because ur tryin to save a few hundred bucks im still tossing up between what ill need....

i know the kms are high on the motor so i want it to last long enough for me to have some fun and maybe get a track day in

speaking of which whats the go with LSD for a da9 im lookin at one but dont know where to start

the hand brake switch is on the hand brake lever and its not that hard to get to usually the switch is the drama, id check that first

I had this problem as well. Turns out i was out of brake fluid and once i topped it up, the light switched off.

Cheers A-man, the noise just went away by itself, unfortuneately I put about 100k on the clock before it did without having the chance to look at it. so who knows maybe it was just a rock in the heatshield or something.

Garrett, google lsvtec. it has been done.
Golden eagle make a kit for it (headstuds, gastket, and oil lines), but it's one of those things, the $$$ will start adding up pretty fast to do it properley and if you try to cheap out on it it'll likely cost more in the long run.

anyone got any ideas on the o2 sensor. I asked honda spares for a price and remember it be >$300

maybe ask a exhaust shop i think thats alot of money for a sensor....

putting a b16a head on a b18a block is a cheaper option and it has been done theres a civic in hot fours a while ago with 300kw with this and a turbo aswell

you can get a bosch replacement o2 sensor from memory was around 70 bux..

for 300 you can almost get a wideband o2 sensor kit..
