nice build thread enjoying the progress and selection of parts! keep it coming
Thanks man
. It's all $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ lol
Wow this car looks like new! how come theres no rust?
Love this project!
Aha, cheers. Well, lets just say I was for making sure my next was an unregistered japanese import to ensure as little rust as possible since my last UK EK.
This build is gonna be really amazing i reckon
How on earth can you afford all this cool stuff while at uni? :L
Would love a carpeted garage for doing work in like
Appreciate the faith
But aye, little things like ride height sorted out etc... will make the car for me. And I have been saving for a Honda for quite a while. Makes it harder having the Lupo to run here at Uni aswell though!
Looks x100000000000 better with the oem rears
Really need get my finger out and get the carpet laid in my garage before the cold weather arrives.
Nice updates too man
The tail lights where an absolute must!! lol. And I love the carpeted garage, Makes you actually want to lay underneath your honda
lol.
such a clean shell man! good job with the tail lights! feelin your recaro
Cheers man, and yeh the recaro was an attempt to keep an OEM+ sort of look, Interior looks better in real life, It's so dark in there it's hard to picture lol. I realized a clean base is the most important thing in a build!
So yeh, Im in newcastle at Uni and the EK is tucked up at home in N.I with a few parts laying ready to fit
. Have to wait until Christmas though
.
Some of this stuff was for my 20th b'day (Y) lol
-JIC Magic Carbon front upper strut
-BNIB Spoon Rear brace
-BNIB OEM Honda Aluminium gear knob
-Tegiwa LCA's, was after F7's but these seemed easier to get a hold and look the same and use the same Energy Suspension Bushes. Oh and there polished to match my rear tie bar
.
-Top Fuel Intake with a new Top fuel filter
-Kevlar plug cover to match a yellow rocker when I get of a spare rocker.
Had the car for a blast on a private road before I came over to Uni again and my god. I love it, it feels so solid an un-rattley, was quite shocked being an EK with super hard coils. Oh the noise :O. Went past 180 kph, so has definately been de-restricted in Japan lol.
Sorry about no pics, thought I'd update the progress none the less.
Cheers
