Caged em1 coupe

So as i said in my previous update il be fitting the sunroof delete which turned out to be quite an easy and enjoyable jo, firstly the roof.lining was removed, then there are 10 bolts and 2 plugs and the sunroof just falls out

After that i sat the sunroof delete in place, measured to ensure it wasnt squint and marked every hole with a sharpie pe, once the holes were drilled i wiped everything down and ran a generous bead of clear silicone round the edge of the hole in the roof, sat the bung back into position and riveted it in place (thanks to @markp for lending me the rivet gun) when it was riveted the silicone was compressed sealing between, i just hope theres no leaks lol

Once the silicone was cured i cut round with a stanley and the exess just pulled off

Do heres the end resul, unfortunatly i now have an.ururge to start riveting things now, so i might end up doing more stuff later on lol next.is defos interior paint and eventually a 4.4fd and new clutch.

Good job on that mate, I love how they look, the blanking plates are a bit marmite for some people but I loved mine

 

[markp]

Looks good bro

I'd check the s9b ratios before you go to the hassle of fitting a 4.4fd. I'm sure it has a long 2nd gear and a short 5th

Coming along nicely
Are they clubsport seats? How are you getting on with them? Comfortable?

Yeah there are some differences but im not hugely bothered as the final drive will help that, im getting the 4.4 final drive at a great price too

Seats are ideal, bit tight but hold you firmly which is good when hooning round corners lol great value for money

Quick wee update, sold my usdm tail lights and got some oem ones instead, for the colour of my car i think they look so much better, i also removed my carbon wing, more to follow

c&c welcome

 

[Teggymun]

Small update, i got myself an rpc stage 1 clutch from @Tegiwa Imports



Next up will hopefuly be an mfactory 4.9 final drive for my s9b box as the car will never be user used for commuting again and pretty much just be for track and back road fun, not 100% decided but c&c welcome

Fair enough, I managed to get one a while back but no good don't sound keen on posting them outside Japan!

@LittleGeo if you look on my thread mate I have the outlined type, not the banner type here. If you want one of those I'll have a look for the site I used.

Yeah thanks mate, I did manage to get one when civic scene used to sell them, don't think they sell them anymore.

Just wondered if was anywhere to get the one with background aswell, but might just get one made up.
