Well, fitted it when I got home yesterday! Was a fiddly job to say the least, but the kit is specific to the car so everything fits superbly. Took it for a test drive.......and holy crap it sounds insane! Totally quiet normal driving, but gun it and when VTEC engages, its like she's growling! Sounds really aggressive! Lol Roxy you naughty girl! Cleans up the engine bay nicely, and gives her some bling! Its the one thing that I've been missing since Ruby left, the noise! At last Roxy has her voice, and bloody hell can she sing!

i nominated myself @maë-civic and my MB1 http://civic5.com/forum/topic/9347-ma%C3%ABs-diamond-mb1/page-5

My entry this month. http://civic5.com/forum/topic/9843-new-aerodeck-turtle-replacement/

OK, thought seeing as the weather is crap, I'd just upload a wee photo of Roxy a-la photyshoppy! Lol my skills are getting better! Lol

I've done another mod to my car since I last mocked you for a lack of effort on yours

Budget Pirelli's? Didn't know the P9000 were budgets

looks nice on those wheels!

Battle of the whites

Loving it Gib .. Great work .. And you lot, feck off.. My deck has changed loads .. Just not a lot recently

I was surprised at the fronts for sticking tbh, it's usually the rears that give problems. 8.5" on the back mate. I have cut and rolled bands which would give me 9" and 10" steelies. Just need to source some other steels and then I'm good to go

Yeah ek width fork/bush on bottom of rear shock. But the LCA is eg length. shorter than an ek. Soooo. You can use ek coilovers on stock LCA. But if you upgrade to aftermarket eg LCA. You will with have to use eg shocks as well.. Or modify the bush so its short her and ek fork will fit.

If I do go down the route of suspension I'll probably go straight for Meister R so I can have a choice of how hard I have it but this is good info!

A much needed mod indeed. Can not wait to hear her in the flesh, hopefully i will find time this year to head north again and check her out

Looks awesome! Bet you've been hooning just to hear it because that's what I do Love to hear it bark just as it crosses over then change gear

Point proven eh? Though most of that list is in fact wear and tear items.

We use EG LCA. But we have Ek width shock fork/bush

Track prep is done!

And these

Yeah should look better also with these on now

Update time! After selling Ruby, and getting Roxy, the one thing I missed was the sound Ruby made!! No point having Vtec if ya can't hear that sweet noise it makes! So after much searching to find out what would be best for the TypeR induction wise, I settled on the HKS RSK reloaded kit. Big difference in price compared to what Rubys induction kit cost!! lol Didnt fancy coughing up £340 odd quid for one brand new, so went in search of one second hand. These go in seconds when they come up on civinfo.co.uk, and missed 4 of them by a matter of hours! One I missed by actual minutes! They sell so fast! Then I got a pm off a member in Edinburgh, asking if I was still after one. It was only around 8 months old, and had done little mileage, but even so, he fitted a brand new filter to it. It even came in the original box with the whole fitting kit and instructions, which is what a lot of members over there seem to be looking for. So I was over there like a shot and bought it! Hoping to get this fitted this weekend, inbetween work. Oh, and checked with insurance just to be doubly safe, and they said it wasnt a problem, not even any increase in price or owt! So mega happy with that! Looking forward to hearing Roxy shout! PS: Krzys, I blame you for this!!! After hearing your EP3 when you were up here last week, I just had to get Roxy sorted with an induction kit! lol

They do finish the car off a treat

Stunning on those wheels, great job!

We enjoy you too!

Awesome pics

Looks very nice

that does look very good!

Stunning!

So on Friday just gone I did a 600+ mile road trip to Edinburgh and back visiting the boss @Dave plus another friend Dave! A1 was at a standstill heading up so I made my own diversion.... Also coming back down I got held up for nearly two hours to travel 1 mile to the next junction of the City of Edinburgh bypass... Saturday I looked at the car and decided it's well and truly time for a clean!!! Sh1t.... So with the help of a mate we set about it! First off this was the result just from using a pressure washer and spraying the wheels with some wheel cleaning product.... Now for the foam! Quick progress snap. Done! Car hit 49k on the Friday! I've been asked if I'll take someone up to Aberdeen next weekend to see a car! Could be close to 50k on the clock with that one if I do go!

You need to check the rotor/screw has not damaged the sensor in the distributer. You normally get that code due to a damaged/bad sensor.
