my jap-euro ek civic (PIC HEAVY)

[jordy93]

Looking real nice, love the stance. Keep up the good work. Whats the specs on the wheels (size and offset)?

Also, are they genuine or replica Spoon / Vision mirrors as the fit looks really good. Cant decide what to go for myself. Ideally I would like some used gen 1 versions (non carbon) to paint as cant see point in paying loads for the carbon ones only to cover with paint. But used gen 1 versions seem to be rarer than hens teeth and will probably cost more! Replicas are cool if they fit right.

Cheers mate, the wheels are et35 15x7

and the mirrors are spoon reps

I'm really sorry but I really don't like anything about this. You're passing off cheap replica wheels as genuine which sucks, its like sticking Volk stickers on Rota's, you might fool some people but it's never going to look right.
Considering its on 15's too its not very low either which clearly with the "jap-euro" theme you're going for you'd aim to be sat pretty low on them?

correct me if im wrong but I think they are genuine BBS rims. Wats so fake about them?

Id say get the bolts in gold and some gold lug nuts

Spoon mirrors take some getting used to lol found it awkward at the start but its good now

is the car finished yet?
no, at least give me a chance to sort out the stance and looks off the car.
rome wasn't built in a day....

suppose it could have been if you were there though

the car isnt sitting as low as possible because were i live is covered in speedbumps and potholes.

if you hate everything about a ek shape civic its not the right forum for you then is it?

Nahhh not the right forum for me is it....

Look familiar? My area is also littered with speedbumps and potholes and I use the car 30+ miles a day even when its that low.

i think its looking spot on mate, i like the hole euro scene, and its good to see eks like this and not just dressed up to look like a ek9.. so far so good , i think you should put some spacers on the rear the bring them out the arch a little bit more.. keep it up

 

[jordy93]

yes will be getting 20mil spacers for the back, then front and rear camber kits..

oh right okay mate.
ripping the engine out in a while and putting a b18c-r in, will be aiming for around 230hp +
hopefully!

@ - eternal blue, yep will definately be attending most of the shows this year

you have a few bits for sale that i want by the way!!
there will be a pm sent your way once i have the funds gathered up again, wheels broke my bank account

 

[jordy93]

Jesus no, i'll be choosing the parts, and i'll do doing all the prep work and painting the engine bay a different colour. But im leaving the engine work to the professionals Wouldnt trust myself putting one in

I'm talking to a guy off this site at the minute about the engines and he's doing me up a quote

your going to need extended bolts if you use spacers more than 3mm. not a fan of the whole euro style tbh. but fairplay for being different.
