Why not just hold out and get the EK9 thats right for you, I've had a couple Civics and an Integra Type-R - I wish I had waited and got a perfect 9.
Its more than a Civic its a bit special plus in time you can B18C the EK9 to make it even better.
I could go out and get a VTi tomorrow but i'm not going to cos its just not what i'm looking for I guess you have to ask yourself what you really want.
And I also seem to recall you saying this.....
lol i did say that yes, but it does say leaning towards
nah i know what ur saying mate its just B18C has more power out of the box and more tourque......
kozy was talking about racing the engines and comparing wear i don't think this realy applies to a road car, i mean yeah it does but not to the degree we were talking about...
and if i'm honest guys, insurance on an EK9 would kill me PLUS i don't wanta White EK9 it would hav to be a black one... and they go for mega bucks the examples i like...
i'm only just 23 lol i got plenty of time for a nice EK9 would rather have a nicely powered EK3 for some time and then get an EK9 when i am very confortable finacially as i know i'll go mad on it i can't afford to buy an EK9 and then drop loads on servicing brakes exhuast like some of you guys do i Envy the people that can do this as it would be a dream but i have to think with my head and not my heart....
this ek3 would be peanuts for the time being to insure and run ( petrol and tax ) .... which again i like the fact for the time beings it looks great but won't cost me the earth.
also i have a B16A2 sitting here so could fit that for a while, also when it comes to going for a new power plant i have the B16A2 and the D series to help pay for what ever i choose.
TAMA666 - you're Spot on mate, not buying a swapped one. for this price range anyway.
looks like a nice car for the money a bit cheaper and its definately worth it mate
exactly !!!
If i were to knock the price down to just over 2 grand i think its a steal.
Add the price of parts. Underestimated prices
GT3's £350
Spoon N1 £180
Black recaro's £ 400
coilovers £ 300
EK9 headlights are a good £100
Totaling - £1330
so take away £1330 from £2500 ( current asking price so will hopefully be lower ) and you are left with
£1170... for an EK3 with 67k miles ...
so if he accepts £2300 even its less than a grand.....
lol you guys can't look it and go an ek3 for £2500 too expensive, theres more to it than that lol. otherwise there ouwld be standrad prices for all cars...
i really don't think this is an expensive car guys yeah its not mint but to be honest i want a bit of a project.... and i do have another ek4 siting here for parts..
also i have a b16a2 Sitting in my written of VTI-S that i could put straight in it.
anyways well apprciate you comments guys taken them all on board ( apart from the odd one that makes no sense )
worth every penny
to get a 1.6 to a 1.8 bhp level it costs £1000`s
lol its a 1.5 and i would be dropping in a 1.8, not tune a 1.6 up to a 1.8 bhp level lol
what power is 1.8 bhp level that the type of thing you see in max power.
"1.6 but goes like a 2.0 litre" lol there are 100's of 1.6's that make more power than 2.0 litres.
lol sorry man i'm taking the P*ss
sure you get it though.
I'm gonna go have a look saturday hopefully, i like the colour, the stance, wheels, seats, i just like it.
