Re: R8 216 - Parts common to SOHC and DOHC models
There basically different cars Hardly anything is the same even the engine blocks are different That seems a bit harsh :) However, I take your point - it's probably better to think of them as two different models that have some parts in common rather than two variants of the same model.

Re: Front Brake Hose for 1990 214
Yes I would talk to Jon Wilcox too. I would avoid both Rimmers & Euro if I were you. You don't mention which size disks you have fitted? Although that probably won't affect the hose end or the Banjo bolt. The caliper & carrier will differ definitely. Just a word of warning Rimmer's think all...

Re: ECU Reset
The tool resembles a Allen Key, except with male splines, you can pick up a set cheap enough, ph the cabby may be different.

Re: 216 XW Honda Engine D16A8 Convertible
Proximity isn't really a disadvantage if you think about it.
Do a search there are experts around who can re-programme fobs and the ECU I expect.

Re: 216 XW Honda Engine D16A8 Convertible
I would get the ECU as well if possible, it may have a different ign' advance curve and fuel map. The two heads differ in regards to the cams. The Honda engine workshop manual refers to this.

Re: Rover 216i XW Cabrio Honda Engine DOHC D16A8 1994
That is quite crusty, what's it like underneath? I hope you have some bodywork skills? I saw one the other day where the the chassis rail at the rear trailing arm had gone crispy, I was quite shocked to see such severe corrosion on a R8. I hope you did some due diligence underneath before purchase? ...

Re: Waterpump Pt Number
Thanks for looking that up, I bought a new old stock item from eBay. I can't see the engine build order changing so assume that this will fit as and when needed. The water pumps are interchangeable between single cam & double cam engines according to my research. So I'm guessing UNIPART changed ...

Re: ECU Reset
If you have a persistent smell of petrol in the cabin it might be a fuel tank issue, it's located under the rear passenger seat. That protects the tank in a rear end shunt.
