Since winter storm has hit us again, I am once more reminded of the salt that may be collecting in my engine bay due to the large holes in the front wheel...
Took a test drive in the new 2002 Sentral SE-R SpecV this afternoon. I'm impressed with the car, I must say that it is quite the value, approximately the same...
Hi all, I found this tip in a frugality book sent in by someone in Vermont: "To shorten both the length of time I must scrape snow/frost/ice from my window and...
Interesting article, seems like Fram filters are the one to avoid. I recall reading somewhere that the "Honda/Acura" filter used by the dealer is actually...
Klam, in message 3105 you talked about adding sound insulation in doors when installing your speakers. I don't know if it's too late for you, but I found a...
Since the 1.7EL comes standard with ABS, is there any way to tell if the front brakes are too tight or the rear brakes are too loose. If brakes are too tight...
All standard passenger cars have a front-bias when it comes to breaking, having stronger rear braking would induce sliding. You can just tell because they use...
Thanks for the heads up, I actually haven't installed my speaker or optional sound insulation yet... still too cold for me! hehe I'll check out the article,...
Hi all, I used to do oil change myself, now I don't bother with it because some places charge $39.99 for synetic oil. Can you tell me a good place (Acura...
That's a good question. A lot of people said that WALMART is the cheapest place to go. I haven't been there so I don't know how the service is like. I've been...
Hi, I did the 24,000 oil change today. After what you mentioned about other owners noticing difference in performance with 5w30, klam, I decided to stick with...
Yeah, 5W20 is rare in general, synthetic even more rare. There is 5W20 available from Amsoil, but none of the other major manufacturers like Quaker State,...
Anyone knows of projector headlights that fits 1.7 ? , I want to get something like TYC <http://secure15.dellhost.com/~d30022975/images/HC01PHBC-DOT.jpg> ...
Hi, the 1.7 EL is the 7th gen civic, but not sold in US market so that could be why this headlight is only mentioned for 7th gen civic. Can you post more...
They look pretty cool, I'm not sure if the Civic and EL headlamp housing is exactly the same size. If it did fit and the reflectors and projector lenses are...
i have true HID on my ride, that's why i want to get the projector type so i can have my high beam back, DRL and also a better cutoff for the HID beam...
Next time you park beside a 7-gen Civic, see if the headlights are the same shape. Last time I checked they weren't, but I might have been seeing things....
After reading Jonavin's message, I went outside and checked if the 7th generation civic and Acura 1.7 headlights have the same shape. As the two cars are...
Actually when I went home today. I compared the 2 headlights from afar.. They look similar, but ours have more pointed end for the parts nearer to the driver,...
Forget it. The Acura EL headlight housing, along with the hood, and probably front 1/4 panel plus bumpers do not fit the Civic, and vice versa. If you take a...
Just wondering what HID kit you have? How much was it? How's the light output (stupid question to ask... hehe of course it'll be bright!). I heard of some...
I have also heard of those dual-beam HID housings, but the mechanical shield thing that moves to switch between high and low is suspect. Not sure how long...
Speaking of car lighting... my Philips Vision Plus H4 bulbs from Europe burnt out yesterday. The low-beam circuit was fried, black stain and all. The...
The brand on the box says Xenox H4 retrofit kit, I got it for $550USD including installation (through a friend), the light will produce blueish hue during the...
Did anyone here with a 1.6el do a header and full exhaust? I'm planning in doing it soon. I'm just wondering which one is the best for our car, i heard DC...
hey, I was thinking about a new exhaust myself. Currently if have an axle-back exhaust but i want to get a new exhaust from the cat-back. I heard good things...
I've been wanting to try those Sylvannia bulbs but several Crappy Tires that I went to didn't have a clue what they were. Can anybody in the GTA give me the...
