Hi all some of you may remember me from last year, I had a fully smoothed civic ej9, that was d16 turbo then b18c4 n/a

Well anyway I sold that at the beginning of the year as I decided I wanted a change from honda, so I decided to get myself a bmw 316 compact with a 325 conversion

I completely loved it as it was soooo much quieter and smoother than my civic, and loved getting the back end out everywhere haha!

Well anyway I soon got bored of that and decided I needed vtec in my life again! now I have myself a DC2!




Its 1998 uk spec
95k Miles
standard engine bar a backbox
standard exterior and interior
tein coilovers
drilled and grooved disks
polybushed rear trailing arms


it is in very good condition inside and the engine is running mint.

The outside is also pretty mint, no scratches or dents however the rear arches do need doing, both inner and Outter skins

Since buying it i have made a couple
Of changes,

First things first, i gave it a good hoover in and out, for
Some reason every time i put the heaters on bits of weed manage to come
Out of the air vents :( i guess the previous owner liked a smoke.

A good service including air filter oil filter fuel fiter plugs ect

Then i got a decat pipe on it to give it abit more grunt

And then just generally playing around with the spoiler and coilovers


I have taken the spoiler off to get it painted but actually like it without it on!


And i have had a little play around with photoshop

No spoiler, No rusty and superlowss !!


But i think its going to be too low and unpractical like that so it will be staying how it is for now




Plans for the future

- Get the arches repaired
- Spoiler repainted
- wheel refurb
- jdm front end conversion
- marry it
 
Nice plans mate, should be sweet as a nut when its done :nice:
