Don't forget that the B series cars will be lighter than the K series with all the extra stuff to stop you being killed in a crash so that helps. I had an EK4 that would keep up with my brother's EP3 untill around 100mph (On track of course) but then I found mine had started to run out of steam and the EP3 sailed away! The FD2 is also a K20 by the way, I think it might have 240bhp and revs to 9,500rpm in standard form which sounds epic! It's all swings and roundabouts really, weight is a big factor though, newer cars are simply heavier and that spoils everything.

Nice set up mate. Looks ace, hope it pays off for you and you can earn some serious wonga

Right this is one of the reasons why my aerodeck has been on the back burner. I decided enough was enough working for wewantanycar and thought it's about time I went back to what I do best, detailing. This is the build up of my van that carries absolutely everything I need to detail anywhere. Even in the middle of a field. Started off getting the van and inside it looked like this This was all stripped out and cleaned ready for me to insulate the van itself inside. I did this due to wanting to keep it cool in the summer, and warm in the winter. Once insulated the panel lining was reinstalled and I proceeded to make my split bulkhead. The bulk head is 10mm thick mdf and 7mm thick Perspex sheet. I did this so I can get a decent amount of light in the back through the windscreen and also keep privacy from nosy thieving scum. After that I decided to install my 250l water storage tank right behind it in the middle for nice even weight distribution. My next step was storage space. I decided to build shelving units around the wheel boxes all the way up to the top of the ply lining. Comprising of 3 higher shelves to the left and 4 shallower shelves on the right. Went and got some black fabric to fix to the roof to hide the insulation and make it a little cosier. The interior was then painted in stone grey. 4 coats of it. I didn't want white as it's too bright in the sun, plus it's a nightmare to keep clean. In terms of power supply, I didn't want a generator as I don't want all the noise, so I bought 2 leisure caravan batteries, a 3000w inverter and a split charge relay kit. This means I can plug the likes of my pressure washer, vacuum and polisher into the inverter and run them off the leisure batteries. Charging the batteries by starting the van and flicking a switch to split the charge to the van battery and also to charge the leisure batteries too. Finished laying the chequered flooring down giving me this as the finished result with all the gear in. Took me a good week and a half to do as I'm no joinery expert, but I enjoyed building it. All that's left to do now is get the signwriting applied and it's completed. Another benefit to the layout as it is means I can take all my cleaning gear out, pop two sleeping bags in the middle with a portable gas cooker and hey presto, camping/touring van. 😀 Hope you enjoyed looking through this. Any comments and criticism welcome

Excellent! Looks so cool!

Yup true ye FD2 civic type r is my favourite civic of all time ye i know its k20A but thats what i said that JDM always get the best engines while we get the less powers ones but but but but cant wait to see that new civic type r looks epic but TBH i dont like the whole turbo charged idea on new civic as ive known honda to be best cars with performance as NA

Yeah. I think I seen you the other week actually. You have a brake light out I'm not that serious really. It's more a case of if I seen one at a good price, maybe I'd be tempted. If the stars align and all that... Just all the stars looked the same to me, hence this thread. It's a bit clearer now. Appreciate the offer though.

Camber arms are a must have on a car that low

Thanks chaps. I dIdn't have time to think about it when I posted but now you guys mention it.... switch. I gave it a few tweaks and it came back to life. It was prob sticking. The car just flew through the MOT. Thanks everyone.
