Looking at the wheels on the left for the Accord in 18x8, £400 and only been out a couple of weeks I beleive
Far from a JDM y0 brand but I've had good experiances with Fox wheels in the past and they are very cheap for a brand new set of wheels, apparently I can have H centre caps too

Saw a pristine EK9 driven by a 40yr old, a DC5 by a bloke in a suit and an FD2 with some damage all within 10mins, all in CW on the epic streets of Kyoto.
Type-Rs over here in their home are porn driven by porn heros.
I want to live here with my DC2 and have a Mines Skyline as my fun car

You have taken this opportunity to buy some rare parts, ship them to yourself and
Rejoice, the car is back. Oh how I missed it. It seems to get to temp quicker now as well. 
I'll install the K&N tomorrow and slowly set it in. I think 5w-40 fully syn wasn't a good choice of oil as it still seems tappaty. Will try a thicker oil in the future.
AND NO OIL LEAKS!

That's next on the list. They were done in August last year so I think may need doing again. Will try get them done before the RR. I'll be cleaning out the EGR plate and throttle body too.
Got my oil changed today as well, its that little bit smoother to drive now, I'm not at all convinced the oil was actually changed by Brindley Honda in West Bromwich before I bought....so much for 'We'll give it a full service before you collect it' 
and full Honda service history counting for something 
....still, sorted now.

I don't trust garages one bit. I never have, never will. Although on this occasion a friend recommended me to them and he's always used them. Very reasonable labour charge and did all the work I mentioned them to do. I wanted to take it to TGM, maybe next time for the VC's. Oil is clean but I can't work out the true level at the moment.
BUT NO LEAKS, I'M SO HAPPY. Those leaks were annoying, especially at the sump. I drove many miles with leaks only to realise my breakdown cover didn't get renewed! How lucky! Glad I brokedown locally when the pulley went on its way (which I will get pics of tomorrow to show how it got worn out).
New tyres and bushes and it should be set. Been an expensive purchase so far. I guess it's ok as I can be at ease now knowing it's ok. Will be in a derv next purchase round.
Not a heat shield or TCT?
Seeing far too many shrines, walking around, eating and drinking sake to research into overnight parts from Japan
Anyway, my Teg is perfect and needs nothing............

Buy Muffin a Skunk2 knob. Are they much cheaper over there?
probably not, skunk2 are a Californian company.
