If it's on your Civic, it's easy to replace. Take the wheel, brake caliper, and rotor off. Then take a hammer and pound out the stud. Take some big washers and the lugnut and tighten it so the stud gets pulled through. It's not very hard.

I like my Axxis Ultimates. Only had fade once while driving at Mid-Ohio this weekend and that was when going from about 110 down to like 50 on a 20 minute run... or something. Good pads, though.

I don't know the answers to your questions, but I know of a board that does. smile.gifFresh Alloy

http://www.jdmfan.com/index.php?information=chassis_codes also has them listed for USDM and JDM.

The only thing I can think of that would help a transmission's life expectancy is to change the fluid on a regular basis.

That link may also be usefull for some.

Wow, thanks for the repling so soon.

 

I really don't think it has a leak, because I actually let some of the 134a out before refilling it because it originally wasn't going in. But after letting some of it out, it went in without a problem. I get good flow from the vents, the condensor fan turns on... but it does seem like the compressor the more I think about it.

 

Any other input?

Hey all, I have a problem and any ideas as to what it is/could be would be wonderful.

 

So here's the deal, I have a 1996 Honda de Sol Si with the 1.6 SOHC VTEC. When I turn the A/C on, even for hours at a time, it doesn't get cold. I refilled it with a can of 134a thinking it needed refilled, but that didn't help nor do I believe it needed anymore 134a. The condensor fan turns on, however, about 2/3 of the condensor fins are bent in from road debris and bugs (not sure if that could have any impact on A/C performance or not). It blows the air very strong on the highest setting. At this point I'm not sure what it could be and I don't really want to take it to a mechanic and pay $65+ to get it looked at when money is somewhat limited for something like this (the roof comes off, A/C isn't needed as much tongue.gif ).

 

So what is everyone's opinions? Any suggestions as to what I could do to remedy it?

 

Oh, and I'm putting a custom exhaust from the catalytic convertor and back on my car soon with a universal muffler, any recommended shops who can do mandrel bent piping?

 

Thanks a lot.
