Dc2 front with OEM bumper might be the way to go if i was doing this!!! As said so many varied opinions on this... Shows the capabilities of this forum... So many different views aired in one thread but all accepting each others views!! Great stuff C5!!!

OEM bumper is much better!

dat a*s

right little update i have just been told that most of my parts were sent out yesterday!! just waiting for an email back to see when they are meant to arrive time to clear out the shed!! i'll post up a picture of what came when it comes

Must just be hat thing! Yeah, I always think "It could only happen to me" like you do! I have to keep it because of the work I've already put into it! Would be a shame to see it go to waste! Plus I don't think my credibility on Civic5 can withstand another non-Honda scenario

I get to use this new abbreviation i learnt now!! IIRC ( ) under steering wheel under dash is yellow wire and plug that isnt connected to anything (sits in a dummy connector) pull it out and put an unfolded (straight) paperclip in each pin hole (should be two)... Hold paperclips together and switch ignition on... When the SRS light goes off after about 6 seconds hold paperclips apart... In about 4 seconds SRS light will come back on again, when it does, hold paperclips together again... Disconnect the paperclips again when the SRS light next goes out... After 4 seconds the SRS light should blink twice... Turn off ignition, remove paperclips and replace wire... After about 30 seconds switch engine on and the light should go off after 6 seconds as is normal!! Hope this helps, unless you already know how to do it, which then i would have just wasted 5 minutes of my time typing this out haha!!! Oh well lol

When you bleed the brakes work from the furthest away from the master cylinder forwards; 1st N/S/R, 2nd O/S/R, 3rd N/S/F, 4th O/S/F.

Am def looking forward to seeing this on, another amazingly cheap vtec2011 find...

He went down to Harry's man and ordered 3x t66 turbos, spoon exhaust systems and NOS

Wheels arrived! Not quite all the same as in the photos, all the cast ally centres will need brushing/sanding and the rims look gdjust need a polish and the lips need wire brush with sealant but going to look epic! More pics to come!

that would be ME

Iol ive just realized i quoted u 2 u nick ooops

OH MY! I must have those headlights!!! Some awesome stuff going here bud, especially the arches! It's funny how your wheels recently got damaged as mine has too. Buckled and cracked but not repairable So I hope to get new wheels before Japfest!

Now what on earth is that!?!

Exactly. Will put together a little thread when I can. Feel free to add photos as I didn't take many! On another note, just drove back from the gym, what should've been a 10 minute drive turned into a 20. Ha almost don't want to name the car because I hate them so much, but an old megane sport gave it some at the lights. I'm afraid I couldn't resist. Where I llive, there's about a mile and a half of lights every couple of hundred metres. Was great fun, although the dumb ass driver wouldn't give up, I was even short shifting into second and still getting to the lights first. Absolutely loving the deck at the moment. How I've survived so long with no vtec in my life I've no idea :-D

Head from Edinburgh down to north berwick via the coast road nice road with great views and you'll get a cracking chippy there!

cheers nick. Problem solved!

6 months!! That's ridiculous for a set of plugs.

That looks awesome!!

Agreed that does look very tidy in place mate.. Top Mod Oh yeah and LUCKY BASTARD LOOOOL

That looks the nutz mate, awesome wheel, nice chunky rim.

Me thank you!

So y isn't this still working??? Arrrrrghhhh

I'll have a buddy with me who, whilst not a mechanic, has a bit more experience tinkering. The main job will be brake bleed, and then hopefully have time to tackle some of the other things too.

Yey got photo bucket working.. Uploads coming later.. 😊

ha ha a spoon exhaust would be awesome

Yes, i can't wait...that's why i'm killing time with photoshopping I have the wheels now, but i need to save some extra cash for the high gloss polishing. Cheapest price i found is around £ 330,00...!!!

What have you ordered, an engine?

Yeah I can do mate. Don't have an awfull lot of oictures though, but it may help!!

Lol lol i wanted a deeper bucket seat for the track as it holds you in better! I will post up a 'how to' on seats soon folks

Srs light... Two paperclips done the job for me ... Wheel looks the nuts though good find!

It depends on whether you're after noise or performance, for noise whales c0ck, performance itr box with a panel filter and cai.

Wow, insane deck matey... Cant wait to see it at japfest pal! How did the sleeves effect the ride... Is it harsh unless you go slow? What kyfer said sounds like a plan! Lol

I think the perfect look comes with Honda caps instead of the original Exip caps: Not too bad i think...???

Just the one holds it on, then you have to slide it towards the front of the car to release it!

A bit away from Edinburgh but St Mary's Loch where Dawn's memorial meet was held has some epic roads! Awesome views too!

Thanks mate. . Yeah I love carbon wrapping also as you can see from my car but I love carbon dipping even more but it's so expensive

Not yet Alex,just running natural camber for now,lol but these are what i will run

Nice get out clause.

Im lovin the surround dude ive always loved carbon wraping it looks the best

Must've been a one off, I bought drop links the other week and Martyn messaged me at every stage of the delivery, very helpful chap.

or you can not p.m them because it says they can not recieve anymore so you post in the topic thread and still get no reply LOL seriously im sure that was just bad luck for me and a one off as nobody else has probs dealing with them....

haha, you think your car is high?

Jap fest 2015 lol

Love this pic. What a great looking m

It was set quite low when i got the car and it had apparently been set up by civic cup lot. Me being curious and messed about with the controller and vtec ended up back at 4800. Now its back down again it feels more alive like when i bought it lol. Yea id imagine the de-cat and mongoose would prob be helping a fair whack, not sure how much a lightened flywheel would have helped if any along with sports clutch. Wouldnt mind banging in some better cams and seeing what happens then but dont think i could afford it sadly :/
