I have no idea what could be going on but honestly the car had so many little problems I would rather get a new car that I could trust my mom driving more. Also the water pump pisses coolant while cranking it over.

From what I see, Hawk is the /hg/ meme brake brand. Can anyone vouch for anything else?
>>
>>17715600
for what car?

I would say hawk is highly regarded around the entire /o/ community, not exclusive to lawn mower fags.

i currently run hawk pads now, but used some mid-tier stoptech pads before that. Never had any problems with em. however, I didn't realize how much the stoptechs faded until after i started using hawks. Even from 100 mph they'll bite pretty hard all the way down to a stop
>>
>>17715766
for accord. i only have front discs and the fact i have shitty, screeching, dusty, fading and rotor eating economy pads and rotor makes me want to upgrade. That and i'll have the braking power like a 4 disc

>>17715766
oh yeah and stoptech pad+rotor isnt bad if you're a sub 150hp box riight?
>>

>>17715881
Most likely. You could get away with that on a higher power car depending on how big the stock rotors are.

My 2008 Accord has a pulsing brake problem that feels like it's coming from the rear passenger side. Slight grinding noise can be heard if braking for longer than a few seconds.

No ABS lights or anything. Pads and rotors look fine; almost new even. Took it to someone more knowledgeable than me that specializes in wheels and tires and they saw no obvious defects.

Not a big deal. Just really annoying to pulse to a stop all the time.
>>
>>17715984

I'm also having a brake situation. I tried tightening my parking brake because it felt a little loose and now my rear driver brake is screeching even if I tighten or loosen it any more. Pretty annoying.
>>
>>17715963
if youre the guy from before who had stoptech, assuming both rotor and pads, how is the dust and screeching levels?
>>
>>17715984

I'd assume you have rear discs? Internal drum?
>>
>>17716012

I'm >>17715984

Disks
>>
>>17716009
I'm probably not the guy you're thinking of. My stock rotors were fine so I'm only running pads. As far as squeaking/screeching they've been as quiet as the stock pads save for when it's particularly cold out. Dust, however, is more of an issue. Not the dustiest pads by far, but your wheels are going to get dirty faster.

I heard about those. How do the other drivers feel about them?

>tfw I never have a topper because other drivers hoard them or stole them when they quit

>>17716167
Everybody in the store hates the idea that you can't do this or you can't do that and if you do do it, you'll get points taken away or you'll get terminated for going 20 mph or over.

The toppers have internal batteries and will be cordless, so you won't have to plug it to your car.

Anybody who steals one will be a dumbass because it will have a tracker.

Picked up the $35 media blaster from Hazard Fraught tools the other day and have started refinishing my brake calipers. So far I've blasted everything and powder coated the brackets but not the actual calipers yet (using the Hazard Fraught powder coat kit). This is so much easier than I thought it would be but also tedious as hell since I'm baking the pieces one by one in a toaster oven.

besides the engine, are there any differences between EK3 and EK4?
i was thinking about getting either one (alternativly i was also considering EJ6) and just using it as a daily for some time and later change it into my project car
so if i was to swap/rebuild the engine in the future, im not sure if there would be any benefits that ek4 would have over ek3
>>
>>17717362
should've also mentioned that for some reason em2 is suprisingly cheap in my shithole but im not sure whats the general opinion about it

>>
>>17717412
>what else do i need
A new engine for when the turbo blows up.
>>
>>17717393
The EM2 often gets a bad rep for some reason, still don't know why.

Out of the box, an EK or EJ will out-turn an EM2, but the EM2 can be made to handle much better than the EK/EJ due to its independent rear suspension. The D17 isn't very good, 115 when new, and goes to 7500 ish. The V-TEC D17 makes 130 when new, and is a much better option. Notice I said 'when new', chances are the engine has been beat up by previous owners, the D17s would be making less than advertised, and I think mine has been beat below the 100hp mark. The best engine would be to swap a K in it, it's a well documented swap with lots of aftermarket available to help you.

The 5SP transmission is God-tier like all Hondas, but the automatics all have a flaw where they die after 100,000km.

A very neglected Honda, the EM2 has some sporting potential behind it that nobody seems to notice. A set of Tiens should make it very nimble.
>>
>>17717393
Almost forgot, CHECK THE FUCKING ALTERNATOR BEFORE YOU BUY

Some dipshit in the factory thought that the alternator bolts should be the ground, and if it isn't tightened enough, it will short, frying both your alternator and your ECM.
>>
>>17717412
You need bigger fuel injectors
>>
>>17717641
>>17717637
okey, thanks for the info
europoor here so problem with automatics isnt relevant to me
for the swap i was thinking about either h22 or k20, i know that the first one is less popular, but i know someone who did it and he's really satisfied with it
my main problem is deciding between EK3-4//EJ6/EM2 tho
all of them seem to fit my requirement of being a daily shitbox for some time and being a good project car later
although EK is getting harder and harder to find stock or atleast close to it
>>
>>17717683
I'd tell you to get the EK hatch, but that's only because I want one as well.

My EM2 is at 301515km now, and the only reason it has to be fixed is because someone left it in a field for 6 years. They're champs, you really gotta try to kill them.
>>
>>17717703
i'll probably try to get the EK, but other options are really tempting too

also 1 thing i should correct from >>17717683
, is that EK4 is almost impossible to find stock, but EK3 as econobox is often just as it came out of factory, thats why I came here to ask about its diffrence from EK4 and how good would it be as a base for project.
>>
>>17717727
I see no difference between the EK3 and EK4, maybe engine, but chassis's the same.

welrp, brought the fa5 home today. Spent a pretty good chunk of my evening breaking in the new clutch. Very first thing I noticed was how little resistance there is in the clutch pedal now - at first I thought they drained the line for some reason and forgot to refill it. Even though it's the exact same clutch kit that I was running before, the way it's set up now is so flawless it makes me think that ever since I bought the car the adjustment was completely fucked up and there wasn't enough grease in the places it needed to be. That and the crappy oem cmc.

sucks seeing all that money disappear, but I feel like the clutch has been this reoccurring problem I never fully addressed.Whenever I had a problem with it I would just go out, buy another crap cmc and some brake fluid. Then after two hours of smashing up my hands, I'd fiddle with the pedal adjustment and wait for everything to fail again. Upgrading the cmc, clutch line, slave cylinder, replacing the clutch kit with a new one, and having everything done by professionals feels like the perfect storm for success.If it all holds up this whole thing will have been totally worth it. Unfortunately had to cover the costs with the funds i set aside for completing the engine build. I have about $400 left to spend on engine shit, which is probably enough considering I've already bought all the parts. Just need to be extra careful when I do the wrenching and not make any expensive mistakes.
>>
>>17721761
If you dont mind sharing, roughly how much did everything end up costing in the end?

Also you should just be glad that your car is actually running and driving nice now. Vtak and no clutch issues

blog: Think i might just pay nissan to do timing belt and figure out the lack of boost on the 300zx. Don't really have the time. Especially since I need to fix the white CRX's engine harness, make the new supra harness, finish the engine for the red CRX, and whatever else needs to be done.

Has anyone ever paid someone to do a timing belt? I never use a mechanic so I have no idea

Figured it why my gauges were freaking out. My ignition switch contacts were bad. Was going to the store about an hour ago and the car just cut out on me while going WOT. Had to start the car then very quickly move the key to a very specific spot to keep it running. Grabbed some fine grit sandpaper and went to town on all the contacts until it worked properly. Took a ton of sanding but now I don't need to find a replacement switch.

I live in Connecticut. My Miata has is mildly built for autox/track day. No ac/heat, no powersteering and its got absolutely no rust on it. No chance I would drive this thing in the winter. I probably would if I had a bone stock NB, NC, or ND Miata.

Is this worth checking out? I've always loved these Preludes, and this seems like a really clean example which is rare around here. It'll be my daily year round so it will see snow.

That's such a nice green.

Speaking of drag Civics, some fags took theirs out onto the street and both died after they lost control. They also killed somebody else when they hit an SUV. That's a fast as fuck engine pull, though.

No EG hatch owner has no any positive traits whatsoever. Nothing of value was lost. No wonder I still see plenty of stock EK and older Civics driven by sensible middle-aged people who just wanted a light, fuel-efficient DD.

That is a fuckton of miles. The Honda reliability meme applies to not leaving you stranded, with a car of that age and mileage, unless a previous owner has recently replaced literally every wear item on the car, you'll have nonessential shit breaking every other week though.

>first a shock will start to wear out and a tire will wear unevenly and be noisy, but you'll ignore it for a while
>then a tie rod will fail, tires will get chewed up, and you'll finally replace the shocks, tires, and tie rods together
>then the steering rack will start leaking
>then the rear main seal will start leaking
>you will ignore these two leaks for years and just carry around PS fluid and oil
>then a window regulator will fail in the halfway down position when it's about to rain
>then the distributor will start to fail but for the first few months will somehow always start right before the battery dies, if you ignore this you will be left stranded
>you thought you were done with suspension for a while? your trailing arm bushings are toast buddy, time for some new ones.

Yeah I don't even buy from those weird brands sold only on eBay. I guess it depends on the part. Like I'll gladly buy replica Mugen pedals instead of paying the couple hundred for genuine ones. Especially since it's been proven that they're almost the same thing.

There are some inaccuracies with the system; there's a highway where the speed limit is 45 mph but the system believes it's 35 mph, so I got points taken off going the speed limit, there.

Its good to be back owning a hondurr agian i missed my ED so much i got anothe civic.
So i picked up a blue EJ hatch with a 5 speed and AC with no power steering and a the paint quite sun damaged for 800 dollars. Best part is it doesn't even burn oil and its completely stock other than the cool shag carpet headliner. Also are hydro clutches supposed to feel mushy? I dont know how a good hydro clutch feels since ive only driven manual with cable clutches and i seem to miss it.

Final score is 82.

Still need to figure this out since I'm driving a lot safer than I was driving and I'm still going over par.

nissan 240sx s13 got piston rings swapped, and crank bearings taken care of and the crank is back in the engine again.

I had trouble getting the damn pistons into the cylinder but I'm probably just retarded and was doing it wrong

Isn't 2500 asking a bit much for 180k miles in that condition? There is probably more rust in the areas you can't see if there's rust on the outside.
>>
>>17736618
I'd say 2800$ max but where I live crx is trashed and so are most later gen preludes. civic's are just trashed in general here anymore, I can only blame Yankees and people who moved here from Cali for that. nc Honda buying is kinda shit right now.
>>17737595
bit high try to negotiate over maintenance records and looking at the cv, linkage's and interior conditions. I'd say that you could probably get it down to 2300 off that at least though memes have caused the market for used civic's to inflate in price a lot around me so It could maybe go lower than that.

6MT or CVT?

I'm really really tempted to trade in my Altima for a Hatchback Sport 6MT next tax season. Only thing is I'm still paying on the Altima right now so I'd have to start saving up now and put at least 20% down on the Civic.

Thanks bro. Took me forever to settle on a color and I figured a creamy color just kind of matched where I wanted to go with the car.

Next I really need to the timing belt. I've got no clue how long it's been since that was serviced. This kind of reminds me of a terrifying experience I had with this car several years ago.

i wouldnt be afraid of the miles if its running good and looks well maintained. how much are they asking
>>
>>17742319
$4,500. I've looked at ads for a few others and that seems fairly priced. Most of the other ones I see have been riced out and probably beat on, have rust or rot from the salt on the roads, or are way over priced. It looks like a really clean, stock example, which I like.

So my Del Sol is in for the work, I asked them to do a 3 degree job but they phoned me up saying I need new valve seats and rails, extra £100 on the bill but at 150,000 miles why not.
Should have it back in a week or two. They have a good reputation for their work, but shit customer relations and not good at fixing time scales.

I hope it's worth it.
I expect 180, would be pleased with 190, I'd suck them all off if they give me 200hp.

Went and looked at the 03 RSX Type S I had posted about earlier in the thread. Seems like a really solid car. The owner said he'll do $4,100, and that's the lowest he could go. That seems like a fair price compared to other Type S around here. The ones I find with lower mileage at a similar price point are all riced out, probably beat on, and look like they weren't taken care of.

The biggest flaws I found were the mileage (178k), a chip in the windshield smaller than a dime, the steering wheel was really worn(would replace it if I bought the car), and there's very minor surface rust starting on the very edge of the lip inside the rear wheel well, which I'm not sure that edge was painted too well from the factory. The rust isn't bad, it's just to the point where a small section of the paint is a little brown. I'm sure I could sand it down, prime it, then paint over it and it would be fine.

It seemed to run and drive fine and it felt really healthy. I need a new daily ASAP as I'm looking for a new job and need a reliable car with decent MPG, and my current car situation is what's holding me back from doing that. I'm thinking about going through with it. I'm sure there are cheaper Type S where you live, but where I live, this is priced well for what it is. What would /hg/ do?
>>
>>17745148
Buy it. You've obviously thought it through and you are okay with the price so just go for it. With that many miles I'd be paranoid about the transmission but since you've driven it and it's okay then it shouldn't be an issue for now.

Thread will 404 soon, post limit reached.
>>
>>17743277
>>17743648
Seems like the only catch with the price is that it got golf balled with hail, but a ton of cars around here look like that. I'm sure there are other gotchas involved, but it seemed promising enough.
I'm between that and this 3.5k Prelude https://rockies.craigslist.org/cto/d/2001-honda-prelude/6264290842.html
