Rebuilt the right front caliper. Last night I could smell it getting hot. So I limped her back home. I did notice that the rim had more brake dust than usual. Duh! I don't think the bearing cooked. I had the 07 same caliper almost exactly the same thing some way or another and the Piston got a little junk on it.
Lucky the rebuild kits for a 94 Integra, 89, Civic, are the same. That's what I like about hondee some things never change.....
Much, lol.

The brakes are great now after the rebuilt caliper was back on but the other side will do the same I'm guessing. Changing out before that happens. PowerStop are powder coated! No more painting. Which is good and bad. I liked to change the color but now there p.c. just clean and go.

I rebuilt the right (passenger side) front caliper on our Fit twice. Finally put a set of reman's on it. Still getting more brake dust on the right side than the left. Convinced there's something wrong with the brake bias from the factory. Been doing it since new.

Just finished up an ATF drain and fill. Oil/ filter change. And for good measure wet sanded the DS headlight and buffed out. But MzFIT it going to be getting a under the hood detailing as soon as the weather breaks. (+_+) I'll post b4 and after pix.

Was looking at Felix's brown GD3 and I like the 2 sets of tips. And it's time for a new muffler ( Big Al's didn't do a very good weld and it's coming apart ) So it's time for a new look. I'm getting 2 of the vdub angled tips like whats on there now but x2.
