My Thunder Grey EJ9 !!! :D


ill have to agree that that is a cool one, and different. bu the wheels are hard to come buy at the moment. suppose i would always have a few sets ;)
 
Thanks jimbo, yeh I think it would look good slammed on mini wheels. I think its different enough to get noticed too.
 
this is cool. My one is p848 mlo.

Haha sweet. For a second there. I was trying to remember taking a picture of mine on some grass....... Until I realised it was your civic! Ha
Nice base mate ;)
 
well the copilovers arrived today. all marked up with TuningArt stamps.

i can honestly say i have never had TuningArt stuff. usually TAteckniqs or something like that.
They look very similar to those i had on my last civic though, and decent enough build quality for the price id say.

heres a few pics for you guys to look over.
comments welcome as usual.

theyre off ebay lads. was supposed to be 205 i think. but i offered them 175 and they accepted.

yeh i wanna see them on it aswell!
think i may need new LCA bush though first to fit them
 
^^^ they are exactly like the raceland coilovers that were available on ebay lastyear but they are surprisingly very good for road use as its firm but the dampers are forgiving on road humps, and jarvis the lca is a bitch to take off when i changed myn about 3 weeks ago. if your planning to just change the bushe on the lcs i have my old set if you want them free of course.
 
Ahh right, just everytime I've looked on Ebay I haven't been able to find the Raceland ones, been interested in a set maybe for my EJ.

Good to hear they are alright though. :)
 
That would be great sarkel if you don't mind. Ill come to collect them of course. Will have to arrange it? :D
 
right, ive been doing a few more photoshops of wheels. i just cannot decide what wheels i want!!
this time there vauxhall OEM wheels.

what do you guys think???. i really like all 3 of them!! :(
 
Get the coilovers done asap mate :nice:
 
yeh im not overly keen on the vauxhall ones. think im still leaning towards either the bbs or mini pepperpots atm...

do need the coilovers on asap though!!
 
so i picked up some used rear LCA's off a member on here (Sarkel) to make installing my coilovers easier when it comes doen to it.

they were worse for wear so thought id give them a sand down (using sandpaper which after a tool purchase became a dremel) and a lick of paint.

i know they are shoddy but so far they have cost me nothing (except the dremel but this was a good investment in my eyes anyway for future use)

already had the paint lying around from previous projects and also 10x M10 X 80 bolts nuts and washers to replace all the bolts already on the car.

well started like this:

then primed:

then painted:

quick mock up:

i think they will do the job for a month or two after i have installed them. until i can afford some anodised LCA's.

anybody got a decent link/contact for quality LCA's that dont cost the earth?

comments welcomed, good and bad, as always :D
