There was something i wasnt happy with, couldnt put my finger on it. It just wasnt me. So went for a new look. I really need to get a better camera. Mine is very old now and its letting the car down. Looks a million times better in real. Oh well heres a quick one regardless to give an incite. Im well happy with the results.

Let us know what you think,

And make sure you get a Hondata and map on the B18C.

Went out in JimBobs and it went well.

Looking good mate!:nice:
I like the wheels more now there black too!
I really like the stock pre-facelift front bumper, would love one on mine but it would just kill my intake!:nono:

cheerz mate. I think it was a brave approach as the wheels were in mint condition. But i took my time prepping/masking etc... And came out better then i expected...

cheers jimbob! Hopefully getting up some better pics :drive:

Your bumper is well nice too mate!
 
hahahaha, so I wonder how come a 200bhp/200Nm dc2r is faster than a 300bhp/330Nm turbocharged starlet? ;)

i bet the honda still revs faster to 6000rpm ;)

No no no! LOL!

I thought you were asking what's quicker out of b16b and b18cr!

My starlet is twice the speed of my ek9 even with b18c! And much faster from 2000rpm all the way through!

The torque on that thing is like no other. Full boost of 1.1bar @ 3000rpm.

Not even remotley comparable dude as far as straight line performance goes. Maybe of the line in 1st an 2nd, 3rd gear would leave it for dead unfortunatly. Ek9 handling more then makes up for it though.

Here is my DC2 air box with modified Air feed into bumper:

I tell you this works so well. Rev the engine and put your hand in front of the air feed and it sucks your hand in with a great force. So really draws that cold air into the air box..... You can hear it sucking in the air to. I done this today. [/SIZE][/B]

You cut a hole through your front bumper?

Nooooooooooooooooooo!

Thanks for the update with the air feed, should come in handy when I do the conversion.
 
i'm here saying the same thing!!!!!:nono: just half a foot away simply cutting away one of the horizontal fins in the bumper would have made that an absolutely mint job. nice mod though :nice:
