In American English that tranlates to like when something is cool it's "the shit" but when something sucks it's just plain "shit" LOL

I like reading the conversations between the Brits/Aussies... I get to think about the English I learned getting my BA and MA in college... too bad I don't get to talk like that all the time.

Sorry to bring this thread back to life, but the CRX is still smoking, its like white steam, but I really dont think it is condensation, is there any thing else that this could probably be? It does seem to stop when i just leave the car running or drive it slowly for over ten mins, but last night i took a mate out in it, and he had never been in a rex before, so i was booting the car about abit, not for long, maybe 2-3 mins, when i noticed the smoke was back. The smoke is white, no burning smell, oil levels are fine, what can it be? Car is having MOT next week, would like to know whether im going to get spanked by the mechanics!

Any help appreciated.

well it wont fail the MOT because of it, does the engine use any water , and if you take off the rocker cover cap is there "milk" on underneath of he lid because it may be your headgasket

the car would condensate for a while it depends on how hot your exhaust gets and how hard your driving it

Cheers for that mate, ill have a look tonight.

Another quick question (im full of em today) im taking the original spoiler off tonight, i have a new spoiler to replace it with, but once i have removed the original spoiler, am i going to have holes in the boot where the original spoiler was attached? Whats the best way to fill this in, any thing i can do cheaply?

Cheers again guys.

[Civic Jim]

you will more than likely have to drill NEW ones for the new spoiler and fill in or fibre glass the old ones mate

what spoiler you getting?

[jordanfranklin]

I already have it mate, it belonged to the guy i bought the car from, it looks quite good, although i have no idea what make or type it is, i have looked around on the net and not found anything similar.

So im gonna have to fill the holes and re-spray the area?

Gonna get a little costly me thinks.
