ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

        Do your homework!! Bunch of folks on here including myself took their cars to shops to have what you want done and it turned out bad. You pay for what you get, so don't go with a cheap shop to do this work if you want good results.

          Listen to Grumpy and Raf they know what they say.

          Obviously wear items like distributor cap, rotor, wires, etc. have a finite lifespan and need replacement. But at this point you need to think more in terms of preservation rather than restoration. The best strategy I found is to continue looking on EB and with luck you can locate NOS parts. Also keep checking with dealers who have access too inventory database from other dealers. It's hit or miss but you can get lucky. Collect part numbers from dealer sites like Majestic Honda and even if the parts are discontinued contact Vintage Parts and see if they may have them.

          Treat all plastic, hoses, weather seals and rubber parts routinely with products like AT-205, 303 Aerospace Protectant (or similar) to keep them soft and repel ultraviolet. It's not just about appearance but extending the life of discontinued parts.

          In my experience aftermarket is a last resort when new, used our remanufactured are no longer an option...
