Maybe the shipping company shouldn't have kicked it so hard :lol: :lol:
Glad it worked out ok in the end.

every vehicle in Japan is obliged to carry an emergency flare but, unlike those for marine use, they are not fired into the sky which is dangerous on land as the flare has to come down somewhere - doesn't matter at sea. They simply burn with a bright red/orange flame and are placed on the road surface some distance behind a broken down vehicle. As far as I know they do not have a "use-by" date but I will check. I have never heard of one causing a problem because of its age but they have been set off by children in a vehicle with predictable results. They are used in the same way as a warning triangle in Europe but are probably best removed. As for disposal the safest way is to fire the flare in a safe place and then dispose of the empty plastic tube. The mounting clips are useful for holding a torch
basically looking for a picture of a red mx-3 lowered with silver "split" 5 spokes as I have just bought the same wheels and want to photoshop different colours onto the wheels,
cheers!
I am also running mx3 gearbox with my KLZE conversion, I found that the mx6 gearbox had a different mounting for the clutch cable, you can get it to fit, but I could not be arsed as lower gearing suits my car for track use anyway
In the UK we tend to judge car ages by year of registration too.
A 1995 car as in this ad, was first registered in 95 and may have not been made in 1995, if you get me!
There is a way to decode the VIN to get year of manufacture. I'll see if I can find it.
Other than that, take a screw driver with you and whip off the pannel in the passenger foot well behaind the centre console, there lies the ECU. 3 plugs = ODB1, 4 plugs = ODB2. Also in the how too section.
Cheers guys, I was at work thinking it is daft having it sat around doing nothing so I was gonna get it put on anyway.
I did like it on the civic and it wasn't too loud really so I'll have to see some one about slapping it on.
im stickin too here very friendly and helpful, all problems i ever had with my mx3 have been resolved here.
Wether its advice or parts needed i have been sorted.
