guys i need to find a place to repair my FRONT LIP (on my oem body kit) its broken into 2 pieces.. where do i go in sydney??

[Chriskoss]

Umm any body shop man, or you can fibreglass it, sand and paint it urself

[slimx]

for some reason none of the body shops do fibre glassing :S they only MAKE THERE own, i need a place that repairs existing ones..

[Chriskoss]

Im sure an auto body shop can fix it mate, just ask around, they do repairs on bumpers so why not lips

G'day fellas.

My question today is again B20 related.

I've been doing abit of research and what I've found is, a bit contradictory in some ways....

In summary the b20a found in early (87) model preludes puts out 119kw whilst the b20b puts out between 104-109..... Found in the crv.
So which is a better starting point , by starting point I mean easiest hassle free swap into a da, with possible mods to go on later of course.
I'm lost ATM, most ppl go with the crv option but why?

[mooshie]

B20A is a completely different engine and not like the B series found in the integra/CRV/civic etc.

not a bolt in swap.

Hi everyone ...
My gear box is dieing i suspect ... i get a weird screwed cv noise when i turn right, but only in second gear, and only turning right.
having said that are all ys1 gearboxes interchangeable? The clutch in my car is still pretty new. will I be able to put it in the next box i get? or is there a chance it won't fit?

Holy shit man, I'm starting to think we may have had the same problem! If you are referring to the special optional OEM body kit for DA's that you hardly EVER see, I have the same one and I hit a wombat one night and lost my front lip too! I went all over the place to try get it fixed but everywhere said that because it was plastic and not fiberglass it would be too hard to fix and cost heaps.
