Its actualy just filtered with an online editor, I like both the pre-face and facelift I just decided to choose the facelift this time as I already owned 2 UK preface hatches a few years back

Really impressive.
Good to see someone being a lil different and getting the most out of the b16b instead of b18c swop.

Have you got any closer pics of the rims with the stickers on?

Sometimes dropping a B18c in has its own problems, ie more oil consumption unless you are going to rebuild. My b16b is very healthy and shouldn't need rebuilt in the near future and its always nice to keep the original engine that came in the car with history

There is a close pic of the wheel on the 1st page, if you seen it?
 
Better acceleration/easier to keep the car on vtec when changing gear. 4.9fd would give even better acceleration but the car would be reving very high in 5th gear on the motorway

just depends where you take it too or If you can remove the box yourself and give it to a gearbox specialist. So anything from £150 to £500 I suppose. There is also no point in doing this without fitting a new clutch at the same time while the box is out

Cool mate, what's the online editor called... seems like its quite powerful. Might come in handy when I don't have my computer with me.

Thanks bud.
 
Did a bit of wire tucking on the right hand side of the rear to tidy it up

Finally gave the bulkhead a clean, it took a bit of super resin polish to get 11 years of grime off it

White floor looks far better than the black, cage going to be a nice touch.

What kind of cage you go for?
 
Hey ! nice car mate!

Cheers! I knew the rear wouldnt look right all done satin black so put it back to white after having to take the interior plastics out.


rvm I picked the carbon tray up on ebay, search for civic carbon airbag replacement tray or something like that. PasswordJDM do the same but I think they are quite expensive

dont suppose you remember where you got that skunk gearleaver from do you ?
 
Nice ctr bud. Looks so fresh and well maintained in the first pics. Not a fan of the spoon sticker, but if you like it fair enough
 
Funkypower sell the skunk2 gear knobs that's were I got mine from the heavy weight one. :) Were did you get the evo stickers for the wheels from? Look good in broze.
 
I used Funkypower aswell to get the Skunk2 gearknob and I use them for alot of parts, they are cheaper than most and their service is 100%

Found the Evo decals on Ebay, just type in regamaster evo decals into the search, they usually come from the states so try ebay.com
