near Zagreb, Ivanić Grad!
lets take this to pm :smug:
-new clutch (exedy)
-gearbox oil (again)
-oil filter and engine oil
-fuel and air filter
-spark plugs
-diff oil
-new thermostat and coolant
-timing belt and accessories have been changed at 105k by previous owner(now has 114k) and they look like new, just retensioned the belt
-installed a switch so i can turn power to the rear wheels on and off
-new CV joints on both front axles
-brake discs and new pads on front
-drained the old brake fluid, brakes have been bleeded
-disassembled the front calipers and sliders, cleaned and greased (oh they were rusted dear god)
Here are some plans:
-15" rims painted black, with fat tyres
-complete paint job (in spring)
-roof rack
-USB radio and 2 normal speakers
-front bar with fog lights
-swap complete interior with the car i got for parts (my ain't that bad, but in parts car is mint)
-replace right side mirror (this one wobbles after 40mph)
-wide angle rear view mirror
But first problems, of course.
After swap, car runs like a charm, just purring its way along the street.
BUT...
again car has abnormal fuel consumption
it is around 12L/100km what is around 19MPG, which is terrible
it doesn't matter if i drive like a economic, slow, fast or beat the shit of it, turn the 4wd on or off, its the same number
all the vacuum lines have been checked and swapped from the normal functioning motor, along with the intake manifold, vacuum sensors and O2 sensor in the exhaust
no fuel leeks or fuel smell of any kind
car doesn't burn oil or smoke at all
starts too good on cold and warm
compression is 12.8-13 bar on all 4 cly
going to check spark plugs color on the oncoming week to see if she's running rich and check the ignition timing
the fuel consumption is killing me, I'm driving 200 miles a week (job) and it ain't cheap
-replaced complete interior with the other car
-USB radio
-right side mirror replaced
-replaced the o2 sensor with used one (friend had one) and fuel consumption is down to normal (7,5-8L/100km) which i think is good, the o2 sensor isn't that great, it gets 02 sensor error here and there but it doesn't matter for now
I'm going to make front bullbar but I don't know what size of piping is the original one? so if anybody has any info about pipe diameter it would be awesome
and some heavy load transportation :encouragement:
1/2 ton stance on the rear
so here it is :devilish:

trailer alone is a little over 1000 pounds!
combined with another shuttle is rougly 3500 pounds! and i even took 2 friends with me (talking about overload)
the only problem was the engine, it burned over 2 liters of oil in 150miles trip
yes, engines on both wagons are 1.6L

And some drifting, 40 min of fun! But wagon doesn't like drifting, waaay too much grip for a shitty honda, even in first gear.
