I know someone whose partner did that with engine oil. Apparently it took 5 x 4 litre containers to fill. Spectacular fail. Unsurprisingly, engine was unrepairable.

Old mate did that with his 89 Civic.

All it did was blow smoke heavily for a day or so.

There's a guy on fto fb group who has been driving his car without any engine oil. Could hear it knock but kept thinking it was his imagination/wind. :/

Only if you can be bothered adding it. Quite often leave them out on purpose.

Been upgrading sound system lately, got a new 5channel JLAudio Amp 700/5 and a new high SQ import Powerbass sub.

Tidied up the boot a fair bit and probably 200% upgrade in sound..

Before: Big Dirty 4 channel and monoblock

After: One small clean 5 channel with more power than the two

Thanks Dwayne.

Looking for a decent set of 6.5" splits now to complete the build.

By the way...

Any chance u could hunt around in your shed for a full set of mint interior panels? :)

- Both sides rear seat arm rest
- Upper rear panels (where clothes hooks are)
- Door cards (ones with tweeter holes would be sick)
- glovebox
- center console lid
- floor console
- center console
- sill scuff panels
- foot scuff panels (the one where flare goes, but both sides)

Everything on mine is scratched or faded and really makes the car feel like a PIECE OF sh*t when inside lol
