The strange thing is, the prelude has the F20a engine and pumps out 133BHP, the Rover I owned had the F20Z engine and pumped out 131BHP - But saying that there are 2 versions of the F20Z engine, 1 pumps out 131BHP and the other does 118BHP!

There are no workshop manuals for this car easily available in the UK - Which makes working on it hard, I have the manual for the F20Z engine which will help me with most things, but it's the indivudal settings I'm more concerned about (The valve spacing needs adjusting as it's never been done).

I know a guy from a german Honda board who has done some "cheap" modifications to his BB3 and according to him it now has got about 160hp and 210nm! Here is a link to his homepage where he explained everything: www.fast-fox.de The site is written in german but maybe you can translate it with Altavista or anything like that!? Good look and have fun trying!

I checked it out - The guy must be talking utter crap - There is no way those "mods" gave him nearly 30BHP extra - For a start he hasnt touched the exhaust - Plus the others seem to be merely pointless exercises!

I did however track down a workshop manual and nearly fell over when I was told the price - £75 for a copied version, £195 for an official Honda version!

It's time to change the F20A4 engine for the H22A engine - Any good online manuals/help topics for doing this?

Hello from sunny Blackpool.

I've started buying stuff from the US. Sometimes the shipping is more than the part, but it's still less than half the price from the UK! Currently looking for a cheap 17" rim package and new steering wheel.

I signed up for an account at www.cardomain.com . You can post all your pics there and then just insert them to any posts here, or put a link to your cardomain homepage in your automotive forums sig. Where in the UK are you?

Hey all. This is my civic, its currently being finished up at Turismo.uk.com, iv got the sideskirts to put on which is happening nxt week.

Currently it has two 4inch Jap style exhausts with a full 2.25" stainless steel system from Powerflow. (i thought keeping the exhausts straight was too common (in uk) so i though angling them would make it a bit different

As with the lowering iv got Tein Coilovers ready to be fitted. Im buying SLR mirrors for the car, re-tint it light smoke. The Side mouldings are going to be taken off and will get flushed, so will the tailgate.

Im spraying it silver/Blue two tone, was thinking Jet Black but thats gona cost quite a bit. Dont mind the Standard 14's, theyre getting replaced soon, im thinking on Racing Hart Cr's. Ill post pics of the next stage! Stay tuned!
