I had a rather embarrassing ride home on an AA truck the other day after my exhaust fell off. The flare on the pipe connecting to the manifold had been getting smaller and smaller over the last 8 years and finally became small enough to slip through the clamp. I now have a new flare welded on:
I have also been tackling the tyre wear I was getting due to the tyres rubbing inside the wheel arches. I don't want to run any less camber, so wheel spacers were my only option if I wanted to keep the stock wheels.
I bought hub centric spacers with longer wheel studs. The trouble is Honda expect you to pull the hub off to fit new studs, which would probably require new bearings and a lot of bother. However, 5 mins with my multi-tool and I had enough clearance:
New studs and wheel spacer fitted:
I'm now stripping down the rear brake callipers. They haven't been touched since Honda sold them to me 11 years ago, so it's time for a rebuild. They were braking a little unevenly when I had the car MOTd, and I have a bit of instability under high speed braking, which could be due to uneven rear brakes. I'll find out if it's improved on my next track day.
