Be careful with that power steering hose. I don't know if the cooler is on the high or low pressure side of the system, but the high pressure side sees up to 1,200 psi, so special hoses are required. The low pressure (return) side is not a problem.
thanks for the advise, I think it's the high presure side...That's why the hose was dead. I'll order all the stuff from Honda Later, for the moment it works.
There was snow, it's very rare in the South of the France... So I couldn't work on the car.
After the snow, there was a lot of rain... And a lot of water on the passenger side floormate... AGAIN !!
I heard it's a very common problem, I found that the water came from the air blower.
So I started to remove the "cowl top" :
There was A TON of mud here !! I cleaned every thing... And, can you see the black plastic cap on the left side (passenger side) ?
This is the problem !
The seal is dead.
Under the cap :
This is where the fresh air is collected by the air blower...The water goes here and then on my passenger floormate !
You can't order the seal alone, you have to order the complte cap to your Honda Dealer : 61220-SH5-A00
Also there is the same kind of seal on the "cowl top assy", it was weak to, you can order it to Honda : 61215-SH5-300
I've got a problem with my HID convertion kit... !
It's a H4 kit, only "low" beam.
It empties the battery, the headlights always lights... When the Key is turned off.
It wasn't like this in the begening... I checked everything, grounds are perfects, but I noticed that there is always 12v on the headlights connectors, key turned off, on, light switch turned off or on... I don't understand !? Maybe only the Amp changes ?
I retry with the standard H4 bulbs, everything works fine... But there is always 12v on the connector !!
bad relay on the hid kit.. it takes the switched 12v source from the oem wiring and then goes thru your hid relay and outputs to the hid ballast.. if you unplug the connector from the oem headlight plug do the hid shut off?
Thanks, I'm waiting for my coilovers
The yellow high bulbs are OEM on my French Shuttle. There is a kind of "yellow hub" inside the frontlight, in fact the bulb is white.
Red ! Yes I know... But All my cars have red calipers.
It's very difficult to change the front bearings, and I've got a problem.
Old bearings mades some noise, but they didn't shake, The new ones don't make noise (I don't run the car, only when I turn the hub by hand) BUT the hub can "shake" a little, it's crazy because they are brandnew...

Some brandnew parts from Honda !
This hose was a mess to change ! It comes from the air breather to the PCV valve. Mine was cut.
But I broke the PCV valve when I pulled off the old hose... I need a new one
I've got a leak from the powered steering.
When I found it, I realised that the front bumper has to be remove.
The hose was dead, it's a very little one, about 10cm. But I can't order it to Honda, they don't retail it alone.
I used a 10mm diameter hose.
It's a 8000K kit cheap from Ebay... I mean China
There is NO PLACE in the engine bay, so I attached the balasts here :
They look like they are just laid, but they are attached.
In the engine bay, I could attached the relay.
Finally my set up is very "stealth" ^^
Result 8000K :
But the headlights are still yellow
LOL !

What yellow High bulbs are you using?
The yellow high bulbs are OEM on my French Shuttle. There is a kind of "yellow hub" inside the frontlight, in fact the bulb is white.
OEM is always best!

Nice coil overs.
But, Before, I have a lot of stuff to change on the car :
Changing the bearings is a mess...lol
I clean every things, the calipers were very very dirty, now they are waiting for the paint :
