Wiring doesn't scare me it's just I can get confused sometimes then I get angry ha ha. Nah I've got a plan on the way don't worry

Thanks guys :smile: Some info on Fender braces J's Racing inner fender brace provides chassis reinforcement between the joint of the car's front engine section and mid c**kpit section. Typically, the greatest strength of the car's chassis will be low, concentrated in the frame. As we move up the chassis, we find there is less reinforcement, especially at the fender area, where the forward section and mid section of the car are joined by a few spot welds. Consequently, under hard braking and cornering there is a great amount of flex and twist at the fender area. The J's Racing fender brace reduces this flexing and the sloppy steering response associated with it. Chassis rigidity is increased noticeably and turn in response is significantly crisper and faster.

Nope I haven hung around has taken me ages to find a set and then 2 weeks for them to be delivered so wanted then straight on They are going black mate like rest of the skirts and my spoiler when it's finished

hi all not much to update as things are a little slow at the minute a massive thanks to nick green don't know his user name on here haha got a new gearbox as mine is s**gged and the ecu so ow i can get the cam in and running as for the car the front is as low as the coilovers will allow and i have about an inch left on the rear to go wich i will make use of haha i was also looking at the car after cleaning it and got annoyed by the rusty calipers so there painted in chavtastic red theres alot more coming soon hopefully next month i can get stuck into it thanks

Yes, yes, we know that.

I can imagine that will look f**kin awesome! I think Dinochips had a big effect on us

You'd only win if it was a competition for weirdest food order in a Chinese

Nice! Yeah any new wheel you buy the place will send out appropriate rings if needed! That's why they ask what car they're for!

From the arch to the bottom of the centre cap it's 390mm at the front and 400mm at the back!

Hello babe, how you been lol

properly gutted. that set off a bit of a dodgy car history - 1.6 J reg cavilier with the best reg ever (J460 CUM) which I found didn't have an air filter in when I went to change it... explains the clouds of black smoke that used to belch out of it! in the end it got scrapped because of the longest MOT fail list ever (they had to write on the back of the sheet). next up was a 1.4 pug 306 (though it did have a lush momo steering wheel) that I ran until the clutch went, then scrapped it (but didn't retrieve the wheel - DOH!). then I got a 1.8 Carina with 190k on the clock, which was mint for covering the 350 miles a week I was doing on the commute, and had a HUGE boot. Eventually the o2 sensor went which was going to cost £400 to sort (only paid £300 for the car). I went to look at a volvo at the garage to trade the Carina in, but saw the deck and then the VTI sign, and then googled it and here I am. test drive sold it all day

it is indeed. I see F1 as an event i watch but they are not cars really, not in the sense that we all know cars and BTCC is the best car racing series of the lot IMO.

Like those plate holders fitted, wasn't sure before!

I need to see how money pans out, got £500 of hotels and car insurance which take priority for this months pay! If I can afford it once my refund comes then I'll get straight on them!

Noooooo going all out on some Meisters when money allows!

improvement in rigidity, Fast turn in feels much better and front end feels alot more solid, going over speed bumps certain creaks no longer there, defo noticeable difference

Continue shopping ..... New polyurethane bushing for stabilizer bar (energy suspension) and some PWJDM fender washers (blue)! And the new oil .... Which is Millers Oils XFS 5w-50 Full Synthetic Engine Oil.

Definitely, you don't want it slopping about all over the place.

Bush is good!

After some thinking, we thought why not Flush the engine bay and do a wiretuck as the EG turned out awesome and we enjoyed doing it. I wanted to fit a type r head later this year, but got a absolute deal for a complete car so why not eh' drop the full engine in. couldn't really have been a better time. Engine out of Donor Car Cleaned the engine and started to spray it all to freshen things up (NAZ doing his thing) All done, looks a million times better Bought a Timing belt kit and thermostat from Honda All fitted and timed up Engine Harness originally IN Progress Loads more to come InshAllah

Or the best granny pic

Just noticed they do them in gold with the polished lip too! Bonus!!!! What a great site, easy to find what you want!

Thanks for that Nick! Think I like the Japan racing ones the best, although both are very similar. But the JR's have the polished lip so they're winning for me! I'd probs get the centres sprayed either white, gun metal, gold or colour coded to the car. I'd imagine that the supplier will have the spigots in stock if needed. Getting all excited now!

Would love to put mine in but it's nowhere near ready for scrutiny and don't think it would stand a chance next to the ones already entered ^^

Good one, the most ironically named car in history.

if i was going down that route i would say the same as Krys and Tom, but seeing as i got an AEM short arm for next to nothing im using that for now, cant afford a DC2 air box ^^

Went to see how my EU7 was doing last weekend. I miss how reliable and easy to drive it was, but I don't regret swapping it for the MB6 one bit. And now let me tell you about side repeaters. The set on the right I bought on eBay from a seller called xenons_uk. The advert said they would fit MB's, but when I received them they were EG fitment and thus were too small for the MB6. I messaged the seller and got a refund but they let me keep the repeaters, so no harm done. The set on the left I purchased from Gordon Flash Jackson on the Civic5 Facebook page. I don't know if he's on the forums. Anyway he was honest and told me one of the clips was broken, so he threw in the smoked set you see in the middle for free so I could take the missing clip off that set. So now I have this. I'm thinking of putting the smoked set on my MB3 but does anyone have any idea how I'm going to fit them with a missing clip? I've considered glue but then if a bulb goes I'm kinda screwed.

More stickerbombing!

Suppose we can let you off

Definitely making more of an effort to get back into touring cars this year. Much better racing.

No, you need 4x114.

Re a paint program like photoshop but free try this http://www.getpaint.net/ you may get on with it...

Fixed, done, sold!

Could go either way! What about painting them black and doing the USDM indicator mod? Best of both then!

yeah too long, nearly a year... again.... still a lot of progress done in a short time.. the light's came from raz s the fog lights were a "didn't know i had them" so modded the mount's and got them fitted, look quite good. the plate is there as a temp measure till i get the no plate holder's, and new plates. < ordered and on there way to me... yeah an unwanted de-badge, gonna need to pop in to honda at some point...

ah right, I take it the part isn't specifically made for the M's?

What a beautiful looking MB6! Love the colour and the colour coded bumper strips. It looks spot on! Top work fella, good effort!

That looks absolutely gorgeous, beautiful deep shine and love the contrasting black pieces. One question: Are you putting the headlight washers back on? If not, why didn't you fill the holes? It goes here bud, an EK but you get the idea.

looks amazing dude, i wish i had that kind of space to work on mine P.S. slightly noobie question which anyone will probably be able to answer..... that brace with ASR on it next to the coilover.... where is it for?

I will but OEM spoiler back when i get it painted to milano red.

WOW That looks stunning mate. Paint looks amazing, great work Looking forward to seeing this build thread as it develops Only thing i will say is i personally think these cars look strange with no spoiler at all, but thats just my opinion. Keep up the excellent work.....

Wow mate!! She looks stunning!! Well done pal!! What else you got planned for her??

Ok well dont think Gutson around and not done much in the last month so Im gonna make it the maroon 3! Changing my entry to this stunning piece.. Build thread http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/topic/7834-long-term-project/

Nice little shot in the fog this morning

That's Foo Fighters chap but I know what you mean.

Lol 😂Here's how I find it easier to do Put window down 1) Pull seal out 2) Remove doorcard 3) Remove plastic waterproofing wrapper 4) Remove the quarter glass frame/bar Has a screw under the door seal at the top and one on the door skeleton 5) Lower window until you can see the two 10mm bolts holding glass on to rail, whilst holding the glass remove the 10mm bolts. 6) Pull the glass out 7) Now the quarter glass can be pulled out to. fit in reverse, DON'T over tighten the two 10mm bolts, just firm. spray wd40 or gt85 down the tracks and slide the rubber in last it will go. Been a while since I have done one, I think thats everything Hope that helps

Why does the passenger look terrified?
