    Right, to hell with YouTube. Uploaded directly to civic5! Couple of photos too. 20240502_165628.mp4

    Should be viewable now although YouTube won't let me embed it on the site for some reason. Probs need YouTube premium for that now...another money making con lol
  4. Dave
    Shite! Wtf is YouTube playing at with my videos! It was set to public and also allow embedding but it doesn't allow that either when viewing the video? I'll see if I can fix it.

    Nice, wish more places up here too that approach. Might see if there's any interest in pubs near here for a classic/retro/modded car meet! Know a place where it would be ideal!

    Think they do it free as its their venue, with a pub / wedding venue, and bit of publcity for their restoration business / car sales - on a Thursday night so probably doesn't cost them much apart from time, and brings them a bit of business in when it might be quiet. Win win.

    Sounds like a cool day. Vid is set to private though 😉

    Man she is looking spot on mate! Sitting really nice on those wheels too. Stunning!

    lol yeah, deffo keeping the eyes on the road! Finally got it fitted properly and got the trim piece made for it and fitted so looks pukka now. Will post another photo/pic of it when I get a chance. Went for a day our with my mate who does volunteering at a steam locomotive museum in Bo'ness (he's big into his trains). He's been learning all the skills for restoring them so had me round the various workshops showing me how the trains work/how they restore them. Was fascinating stuff, everything is on such a huge scale copared to when I used to restore old Ford Cortinas. Highlights were we both got tasked with giving one of the engines aa clean.......Thomas the tank engine!! lmao But biggest highlight was he arranged with one of the drivers to give us a we run through the station, up front in the cabin! Was totally amazing experience, and a box most definitley ticked! We went up in DD (who's now rocking her posh wheels again!) and been the longest trip by far she's had in years. Drove spot on all the way! Got a nice wee video of her beside the tracks as the train came past driven by Taylor who gave us a toot toot as they went by lol. I'll upload the photos later but here's the video for now. https://youtu.be/WGjsVH0bU5k

    Fitted a Bride Low Max last week, certainly lives upto its name! Feels like driving a go kart now! Was originally going to use the MB rails and modify them to fit, but the effort really wasn’t worth it for me. A lot of cutting, butchering and welding was needed so instead I bought M2 EK rails which almost lined up. The front two tabs line up fine, but the rear right tab is too far back so would need grinding off and welding just a little further forward, and the rear left tab grinding off and welding a little further forward also. However, I didn’t do this as I didn’t have access to a welder. So for the right side I used a long bolt that can reach through to gap and secure it tightly. Had to file a small amount of metal on the top side of the bolt hole on the rails to allow the the angle of the bolt. And the left side I drilled the rail tab out a little further infront of the original hole on the tab. Everything fits snugly and is all tight and secure with no movement, ordered a harness too so will attach that when it comes. Just have the other side to do now…..ahaha. But in hindsight I think I’ll be grinding the tabs off and welding them instead of messing about so much!

    Thanks man appreciate that! The fabric I used has self adhesive on the back of it that’s very strong so literally just stretched it and stuck it down, can’t see it coming off anytime soon either. If you typed in something like alcantara wrap on AliExpress I’m sure you’ll find it, though I’m sure it was listed as velvet ahaha And I’m not sure if I’ve got a photo from the front, though I have just fitted a low max and got a couple photos so I’ll see if any of them are good

    Yeah it’s a JackSpania copy, I mean all his stuff is from AliExpress anyway and I’m pretty certain he just marks it up massively! But yeah just a billet shifter. Hands down way better than all the others I’ve tried. Just not exactly made to directly fit but it’s not too hard to get everything lined up and bolted in!

    Looking sweet, and congrats on the baby mate 😎

    It all looks so good! Must be pleased with it! How did you wrap the pillar trims? Spray adhesive then wrap the fabric on it like you would with vinyl wrapping? Really similar to what i want to do! Dont suppose you've got a photo of the interior, looking into the back from the front doors please? I think i've seen one like this on aliexpress - called a billet shifter if i remember correctly.

    Looks awesome! the CRX seat suits it so well

    Whoops, hope these work haha. Got round to fitting most the parts - also fitted a k-tuned rep short shifter with a stainless weighted knob which makes the car feel so nice to drive - will get a photo soon. Me and my wife have also had a baby so time and money to work on the car are in short supply!! Next steps are to get the interior sorted - really want to fix the headliner, and seeing Kaleverada's thread has me inspired for the pillars! Also really want to strip out the back, tint the windows & fit bucket seats...

    Can't see the pic mate.

    MB6 Exhaust

    FacelessMB2 posted a topic in Engine

    Does anyone know if the MB6 exhaust diameter is larger than the MB2? And if it is possible to install the MB6 exhaust on the MB2?
