  1. Ok, lets see what M's tickle your fancy this month!
  2. That sx looks the same as Adams (jalesi2001) old sx, same colour! Tidy deck mate, good base for modding. Love the "gixer", one of the best bikes around (although my fav is the fireblade RR, but wouldnt /couldnt own one................i'm bad enough on 4 wheels! ) I'm thinking about either the MGZS set up or MeisterR for my mb6. Is your mgzs shocks etc brand new? look nice and clean in the pics?
  3. yeah, cheaper is not always best. Always a good idea to use a top branded product, or a Honda O.E.M. part where you can
  4. Them fogs have cleaned up nice! I might have a wee trick to show soon about a possible replacement for the broken lenses we all suffer from at some point on the civic M's so stay tuned! If it works, it'll be a cost effective repair that looks almost oem at first glance!
  5. Probably safer to stick with the easier mods mate with the auto box. Air filter/exhaust/de-cat (if you can be bothered with the changing at mot time lol) , then possibly cams etc. You could still just go the turbo route, as there are tons of cars that have a turbo and are auto's, although they were mostly designed form the offset to have the turbo on them, so not sure how well the civic autobox would cope. Looking good so far though, and I'd go with the mgzs shocks/eibach springs, as you ideally want to keep the same springs all round.
  6. Only two entries?? C'mon, roll up roll up! Where are all these tasty M's hiding!? Voting will start on Friday, so get them in now!
  7. Yep mate, a 1.6 ES is what you need. They did the ES in both Non-vtec (same as Dawns deck) or with vtec (same as Rob kyekye09's deck) All ES's come with leather and are basically the top of the range (bar the vti) Civic M's. They also did the 1.6 SE (like the advert above) but no leather in them. There's also the 1.5 vtec deck too!
  8. yeah, they're getting really hard to find now mate. As good as my mb6 is, i still really miss this one. Never saw it again after i sold her
  9. Damn, I like them both! Any more entries, get tyem in now guys. Voting will be starting shortly
  10. Nice! Remember to get some pics up when its fitted
  11. And our winner is Zoy! Nice one mate, will get the homepage and winners page updated soon
  12. I didnt have any issues regarding the mot mate (and the place we get ours done are really strict! ) The brake light was still unobscured when viewed from a car traveling behind
  13. Yo Jamie, did yopr bro get his account registered yet? Had a look and activated a few more today, so not sure if his has been one of them? Both the Ms looking top dollar, nice and clean! (Ruby is a diarty biatch at the moment! lmao)
  14. Thats a stunning finish on the rocker mate, and the PB is spot on!
  15. The detail on this car is amazing mate! keep up the good work!
  16. Hi mate. 13volts when everything is off sounds about right, and you're correct that the cranking does take a lot of power when starting up. it sounds as though the battery is fine (though its always hard to say for sure!). As the car fired up after you had disconnected the earth/reconnected it, I would have a good check to make sure the whole earth cable is intact. Give both the terminals on the battery a good clean up with a wire brush, and also the connections on the ends of the live/earth cables. Make sure they are both connected up good and tight, and cover them with a light layer petrolium jelly or something similar. It does sound like a bad connection, so best (and cheapest!) to start there first. If you can, get the test meter and test the car when starting to see what readings you get (after you've done the above ). Also, see what readings you get on tick over, and with a slight rev (to around 2500rpm). It's good practice to make sure everything (electrical) is turned off when starting the car, as it saves putting extra strain on the battery. I always turn off heaters/radio/lights etc before I turn off the engine, that way everythings already off when it comes time to start the car. Are there any other symptoms? Hope this helps!
  17. lol, that pics been doing the rounds for a few years eh! Incentive indeed! lol
  18. haha! Not that youve been counting the days or owt! lol Love this thread!
