Hey chaps ok so the story starts like this.

Selling the dc2 turbo as I wanted another ek9 and still got the ef etc so no space for them all to be honest.

I found an immaculate example last week, spoke to the guy to arrange to go pick it up etc and all was well..
So then 2 days before I am due to pick it up he doesn't answer my calls or emails then the advert for the car gets taken down.. still not heard back from him so basically he just sold it to someone else and thought it was better to ignore me, dick !

So I started looking again and found a 99 cw for sale for mad cheap. Needs a bit of body work nothing major just a few dents here and there but solid engine/box etc. The price was too cheap for me to ignore so I flew over and bought it.

Was then in 2 minds what to do with it, do i spend the money getting it mint and have a nice clean standard ek9... or go mad nuts, strip its ass out and paint it mad colours kanjo style.

The choice in the end was simple... Go kanjo on its ass :dance:

Still unsure what exactly I want it to look like colour wise would love some suggestions :p

Ok so here is a couple shots of it how it stands at the mo:

Not much in the way of spec:
carbon wing
lightweight fidanza flywheel
lowered springs
carbon whale cock intake
Was dyno'd in December and made 186bhp have print out, doesnt smoke etc and pulls well so im happy with that for now.

Sorry **** phone pics and dirty car lol








The kanjo thread has inspired me though and cant wait to get cracking on with it.
As i say any ideas/suggestions for paint/colour's etc lets here them, here are a few:

Just a few from the Kanjo thread lol :D
 
We should both kanjo our cars with the exact same design and get a feature lol
 
Would have to be spoon colours if it was mine!
Shame your ef is so mint. Would be the perfect base for a mad kanjo project!
 
This is going to be killer, no matter what you go with...
...but for me, kanjo is all about being unique. Stripped out, built for speed and used and abused. War wounds from close encounters...blaaa blaa...but thats me.

All of the above photos look killer.

Why not an "EK9.org" kanjo style? Just a thought.

Maybe a mix and match Ek9 colors with parts, wing one OEM color which is different from the body, same with the mirrors. Rolling on 15's with fat tires EK9.org painted on the tires...
On the white EK9 all you would need is some vinyl with your club/team name. Sorry...im also thinking about this. lol Because of your damn thread buddy.

yeah Tama, thought about getting some help in designing something custom that ain't been seen before to be different :)

Edit: ek9.org graphics would be awesome hehe
 
You need a buddy club spec2 to be proper kanjo but ;)

Listen to all the video sounds like most have them haha

Its not that loud either... honest :nerv:
 
Love the spoon colours but you would be a mug to deck your car out with all spoon parts with what they charge.

I've seen an ek9 with mugen colours once, looked nice.
 
Just getting it done as one big vinyl wrap ?

I like a grey/orange color scheme but it'll be down to personal taste for yourself.
Wouldn't really get hooked on having a manufacturer logo on it either.
 
I don't think you need any crazy paint jobs, just some of the door square decals and some motul stickers and a big Honda primo sun strip, run it crazy low with a mega bright coloured cage,
 
motul one is cool! look out for what i'm gonna do to my ej for track day haha
