thanks bruce .. that's what i figured too --
things are pretty well attached to the car .. ! --
i tried getting things loose ..
going back tomorrow with a long pole to assist with leverage ! ..

i don't know what twyla ended up doing with her er motor -- but i do know that she has the 4x120 knuckles -- which leads me to believe that the outers match -- or the ends have been changed ..

twyla -- justin -- what do you know?

also -- anybody know if it is easier to grab gaskets/rebuild stuff for the er motor?

only one way to find out mo........try it and see, maybe snag the axles too

hey all ..

i just came across what is known in sweden as "Honda Jazz" - it's the european name for the Honda City ..

the one i found is a non- turbo - however .. after looking at the knuckles -- i was stricken by the BOLD resemblence to the 1200 -- the only difference being larger calipers and a 4x100 pattern ..

anyone know if the hubs will accept the 1200 axles? is the spline count the same? --
if so, new wheels here we come !! ..

or, i had also thought about snagging the whole motor .. it basically looks like a cvcc motor -- (intake exhaust on the firewall side) - so there might be more space to mess around with the thought of a turbo - homebrew style ..

and of course, there is the wiring to consider !

thoughts and opinions are welcome !

cheers
