What are you looking to do?

[ChampWhite4L3X]

Replace clutch and drop gearbox and change springs.

[ChampWhite4L3X]

Any info on any of these would be spot on, but a workshop manual would be perfect.

[N77]

I'll have a look tomorrow at it for you, as I am on the Mac and I can only get it on the PC

[ChampWhite4L3X]

Those are the component lists, so I could have a look if you can tell me which sections you will need. As long as you have the specialist tools to do it though.

Thanks. :bigthumb:

I have an original Honda FN2 workshop manual, trouble is I'm presuming it's illegal to upload it anywhere so you guys can see it ?? I could sell one of the 2 discs but then you would have it in a foreign language. These are mega bucks from the dealer, sure they are hundreds of pounds.

the only problem if you translate it you will get a litteral translation, im going to ring honda see what they say :bigthumb: .

You can't buy the workshop manual from a dealer. It's a part supplied only to the dealer for their own use.

As Stu said its a dealer...... or Honda/Mugen specialist thing.
It's a really complex manual/software system more akin to an interactive webiste with so much file linking.

As said there are a fair lot of how to's on the Civinfo site which is a good database of FN2 pecific information.

Those jobs are pretty straight forward but setting the rear suspension is pretty complex as it requires removal of rear hubs and shimming to suit. Honestly if your thinking of getting it setup by someone else get them to fit the suspension as well. Fitting and setting is only about 4-5 hours. If you fit the suspension which will take about 4 hours then take it somewhere to setup its another 3 hours.
If you can do it all, have all the shim sets and jigs then fair play.

Box off is piece of cake. No subframe on these to remove like the EP3. Other than that its pretty much the same. [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

[chippyleigh]

This is what I've got !! Yes dealer only but I managed to acquire a copy !!

Forgot to say it works just like the old EP3 software.

[N77]

Yeah that is the exact same one I use too

[ChampWhite4L3X]

Stu you have thrown me with the shiming and that haha not as simple as taking old spring off and new spring on? Just the spring not the shock.
