Euro's are very nice, Loved working on them when i was working at Honda for the last 2 years. Brendan, Have you had any problem with your rear sway bar links? They have a problem with them and they break. I suggest upgrading them what year model is yours?

Nah the discs felt warped. Brakes vibed when i was breaking. So i got them worked, the are 100% now.

New discs won't do too much damage i hope.

New pads are Bendix premiums i think

Sorry mate no can do, i'm finally cracking a shiet at the thing and fixing everything i don't like up. First thing to go are the gauges they getting replaced by Defi Link.

Next thing is the floor mats. ( I am looking for stock B4 floor mats anyone )

New Pedals - or oil so i can stop mine from squeaking.

The 1 sided CD stacker is already gone, i'm contemplating the rest of it now for a mp3/double din DVD player.

The front guard flaps are gone, they kept falling off half way so i finally cracked it and pulled both off.

2nd buffing session will happen this week end. : ) at least it'll be a shiny beast.

Oh yeh and i finally made it to the Dyno, i'm looking into a few things now i'll post up the dyno results once i get issues worked out.

Cheers
