Ramzys EJ9


**** mate you EJ9 looks absolutely stunning.

ive got a thunder grey EJ also. just at the beggining though atm modding wise.

great tribute to the work you have put it on it fella. welldone.
 
nice car, would have been much easier to just buy original black plastics surely ?

never seen that way of cleaning recaros before, did you just spray on shampoo, scrub a little and just jet wash then leave to dry ?

ive never tried that as always though jet washing would take away from some of colour
 
Yeah, but i never could find any local! No-one will delivery them haha

I went to see a set and it was scratched to **** lol so had to leave that.

Nah, no colour was taken away :)

I hosed em down, used AG Interior shampoo (woolite would have been better as its a fabric softener) sprayed that on, gave it a proper scrubbing down and rinsing away while using the water squirter and it did wonders! They came out new as you can see, still some marks but 9/10 i reckon.

I followed a guide on honda tech and they explained woolite mixed in with water, bit of scrubbing and your good to go! Drying takes ages but i used a halogen heater and it was dry within 24hours.
 
Arc winglets are from a friend of a friend. He apparently got them for like £220 ages ago and has replaced the stickers like 3 times. Stickers are from sumo-power.

Thanks guys :) Means alot

Not sure buddy, i got a set of the stickers when i purchased them of my friend :)


Not many updates have happened just yet! I do have a list of things to tackle, just been doing little fixes to the car here and there.

Got my front droplinks changed as there was a sligh knocking noise on my drivers side. Decided to change both!

Two more before i dropped my car to the bodyshop to have the lip repainted as it had showed signs of reaction on the paint, and also there was a crack on the mounting point whilst fitting before mimms. Seems a mediocre job was done on the repair!

Thanks dude! They are 16" Bud. Im sure you can find a set to suit your needs but youll prob have to buy them brand new like i did dude!

Next i purchased a wink mirror from Teishi. I wanted it to match my gear knob as it was also from Teishi. Also got some recaro headrest from the coupe Hitmo was breaking. -

Also to be a little differernt i decided to stickerbom the back. What i had in mind was somthing like this >

Also i purchased some Canards, but never got round to fitting them. Decided to sell them on as i wasnt very fond of drilling my bumper lol -

Next i picked up a Bomex spoiler for a bargain price :D It was in red and needs to be painted!

Its currently on the car as i felt like just running it for a bit to see how i like it. Ill prob also keep the carbon ek9 spoiler as the fitment is perfect and i doubt ill prob come across another one in the same condition! Will prob sell the tilt brackets tho so PM me if you want em :)

Bomex-1.jpg


ive put my ek9 spoiler back on without the tilt. I like it :)

Bomex is off now, going to get painted with this, picked this up for an almighty £18 delivered!

I dont usually park in places like this! But i had to quickly go to the shops ;)

ive made a purchase as after i was washing the car the other day, i noticed my driver side rear LCA had literally no bush! It was like hanging off!

So ive pmd H-tune but they want around £200+ for Skunk 2 LCA with like a 2/3 week wait. I dont want any fake **** as those are going for around 80-140 on ebay. Defo not getting it from funkypower again as these Blox ones didnt last long!

Luckily i came across this set! 5 grooves in the bushes, with the skunk2 Logo to show authenticity :) Bushes look brand new, would have been stupid of me not to buy these!
