There are a few sites here and there... But the search engine here is going to be your best bet.
But you know, for some reason the links section has been removed...

Very cool project so far, fun read.
I was planning on replacing carpet / seats in the interior, thats it.
Do you know the dimensions of those seats? Do they fit well?
Would you recommend cleaning / spraying the bare metal under the carpet and replacing the matting beneath the carpet also?
Good job!

Dunno the dimension on the seats. I can measure later today They SHOULD fit, havent even tested it yet :S
If youre going to remove the seats and the carpet, then I would check for rust. I removed the matteing because I knew there was rust hidden under them. And I "Installed" thicker mats, so that less sound would come in to the car. I drive a Ford Fiesta every day (Mk3), and Im SICK of all the noice form the wheels and the road.. :S

Frontshock bushings...
Soo.. I bougth a new bearing/hub to the rear wheel. But it didn't fit! It was about 2 - 3 mm too big (the hole in the middle)... How come? A guy on rpr said that they are different bearing on the 84 - 85 and the 86 - 87. But when I look on hondapartsdeals.com I cant see any difference in the part numbers. And NONE of the local autoshops knows about this.. They all say that it SHOULD fit, and that my car is not right..

Are those rear arches actually honda? Do they fit nicely?
