Swapped my DC2 jets for Jazz jets, awesome upgrade, now it's a hard, constant, wide mist, instead of the old 2 thin jets of water that do next to nothing. They're expensive for what they are, but I don't regret getting them. As far as the bushing goes, I replaced my worn bushes with new Honda bushes or 'OEM' bushes where I could find them. Read a few opinions about them being too hard with poly bush (too hard for the road)

Jazz jets are an awesome upgrade.

Tempted to chuck Jizz washer jets on but would need to get them colour coded. Not sure how well the surface would take to paint.

My Jets stopped working on mine, they're on the same fuse as the wipers so I'm guessing the motors had it :mad:

Anyone here had a nose around that area, I'm guessing it's bumper off as it's so far down?

Schoolboy question.. Not just iced up?

Does it make any noise, how about the rear one?

Muffin` · 5 Mar 2013 at 08:58

Nah it made no noise and this was when it was very mild in early Jan. I don't have a rear one to test :/

So yeah anyone here want my Accord? Will listen to reasonable offers and would PX for something that is cheap to run.

I'll be putting it up for sale in about a week.

I am seriously considering buying your ATR, but I need to shift my DC5 first, and that could take some time!

Seen that Accord on CL, looks awesome

Im after one but can't find a facelift type-s anywhere

ChrisD. · 5 Mar 2013 at 12:25

It's only a couple of grand, just get a short term bank loan to cover the gap.

*I am joking

ci_newman · 5 Mar 2013 at 12:45

I've got a better idea, you could lend me the ATR until I have money from the DC5 to pay you

ChrisD. · 5 Mar 2013 at 12:48

Haha, unfortunately I need it to drive to work in. My mum has the old Civic and my mum's Volvo is at TGM.

Carl - That brown looks surprisingly awesome!

Thanks dude, you should see it when the sun catches it totally transforms the paint its a bit poo brown on a dull day but I love it when the suns out.

That brown looks fantastic, especially on the CL9 :cool:

, surprised more cars aren't picked with dark brown as it's quite a nice colour, same with brown leather.

Would put up pics of my Accord but its just an old standard model so not worth it, do like that ATR posted up!

Took a trip out on sunday morning with the s2ki forums for a early morning drive and breakfast, never seen so many s2000's outside of a show etc.

Looks like the usual turn out for a Ricky run to me. Is that Lovegoova's car nearest the camera ?

That brown Accord looks fantastic!!

Brb getting my Mondeo sprayed Teak Brown

acemastr · 5 Mar 2013 at 18:42

Brown looks good, air ride and rims just scream moronic, leave it alone

Carl-Brit · 5 Mar 2013 at 19:58

depends how you set it up, I'm not doing the crazy tyre stretch with dish lips sticking out past the arches and 1000 degree camber lol there going to be just clearing the arches (almost flush) main reason im wanting air ride this time is i love slammed cars but there just too unpractical for daily driving, Air sorts this problem out being able to drop it while parked and raise it over speed bumps etc never been in a car with it fitted yet personally but all the guys i know of that have it say it gives better ride comfort over coil overs just can't take the bends as aggressive, I'm not really interested in that anyway this is more of a motorway cruiser that i'm taking to the car shows up and down the country.

Too hard = Stop being a pussy

I've only lost 14 teeth since fitting mine.

I only want to stiffen the rear up slightly!

Polybushing the rear is a job I can do... I think

£135 for two bushes though :\
