    Help! Can’t open trunk or unlock door/gas latch

    That's assuming the OP has an assortment of Honda keys to even attempt to jiggle the lock open. Still a whole lot simpler to remove the deck lid and unlatch the rear seat.

    Help! Can’t open trunk or unlock door/gas latch

    You could always remove your rear deck lid, unscrew the rear seat lock cylinder, manually pull the rear seat latch lever to release the rear seat lock, and access your trunk to retrieve your keys?

    OEM Wing Riser project!

    Does this idea have any purpose besides lifting the spoiler up from where it currently sits? What material do you plan on using to make these extensions? Why 2 inches higher? Have you removed your spoiler and raised it off the hatch lid to get an idea of what this is going to look like? Do...

    Replaced TPS sensor, car still has bad idle

    How does an o2 sensor trigger a fuel pump fuse to blow out? How are you determining your car is running rich? I ask because you're giving off an impression as if this is your first car and never had any prior experience with general auto mechanics. There's other reasons a vehicle can run...

    Reverse starting to stick?

    This doesn't sound like a transmission fluid issue, especially since you can get in and out of your primary gears fine. i would suspect a linkage or hydraulics issue. Have you taken a look under the car to check your shift linkage? Maybe a bolt is loose or the shift linkage is binding when...

    Timing Belt/Water Pump Replacement...replace crankshaft pulley?

    Since this is your first time really wrenching on your car, I would only do cam seals if they were leaking. The camshafts and cam gears have to be removed in order to replace that seal. It's not much work to someone who's done it before, but could be overwhelming to someone who also is servicing...

    aiming high beams

    The low beam and high beam light section is not individually adjustable. The light housing is one piece, so when you adjust one lower, the other is affected equally. Vehicles with a fog light built into the headlight housing use a projector assembly thats on its own sealed section. You're...

    Klutch's B6 A4 Build Thread

    Struts for B6's hold up well if they are new. After 60K with lowering springs, you'll be putting major stress on the suspension arms/bushings on that car. Bushings are extremely important on these cars in terms of ride comfort, alignment, and handling. You can live with a bushing being worn on a...

    nasty curb rash repairable?

    Use a file and clean up the rash. Try to round the repair area so it blends with the rest of the wheel. Wetsand it smooth and grab metal polish to clean up the lip of the entire wheel. It's hard to tell if your rim is bent inwards at the lip based on the angle you took the photo in. If it's...

    nasty curb rash repairable?

    Probably better if you save a little bit more and replace the wheel. That looks repairable, but not sure how great it'll turn out since the wheel appears to be a simulated multi-piece. The repair might not stick well to the casting and may not blend well since it cant be polished like multi...

    DC sports headers and smog? SoCal

    You'll be fine passing the visual inspection portion of the test. As long as the CARB # plate is welded on the primary of the header, you wont be hassled. The actual emissions test may or may not give you trouble with that DC header. My previous 94 GSR passed without issue running a DC 4-2-1...

    Maintenance while intake manifold is off?

    Nothing else you can really do maintenance wise. Since the manifold is off, check on the condition of your rear engine mount. Probably be easier to replace with the manifold out if it was worn out.
