    Ouch... fair enough mate. Any luck getting the disc off?

    I have got a fair bit done yesterday. Spent hours sanding down the front panel and chassis and then come to realise I am not going to be able to sand down and respray the whole engine bay. Bossman wants my car out of the garage later on today. Really annoying but oh well... And another reason why I didn't carry on is I'm not too happy with the colour. I wanted the midnight Ford Puma purple but it looks a lot brighter. Looks more of a Ford Fiesta purple. Again, it will do.... better than rust haha

    What the hell? How did they get like that? Has it been sat up for a few weeks?

    Happy New Year Civic5'ers! Today's progress, part wire tuck and removing rust. It was an absolute pig of an job to do even with air tools! This is just the work so far but I hope to finish it all off tomorrow

    Nice zaust! And loving that sticker on the air box

    Deck's looking good man! I didn't think blue and green would go together but it actually works a treat!

    You should be thanking the worst Civic ever for saving the best Civic ever...

    Boss man has decided to let me borrow a ramp over Christmas or possibly till the new year. The place is a right mess but it's a barn where we just recently put new ramps in. Front-end of the Aerodeck is all gutted for a wire tuck and engine bay respray....

    Just been catching up on your progress. Quite surprised it's going in for another respray but lets hope 2nd time lucky aye

    183k?! It's doing very well then! Providing they're serviced, they don't loose power

    Seen this deck on one of the Facebook pages and my jaw sort of dropped.. love the Milano red and those wheels! Keep up the good work

    This is going to be a very interesting build... Good luck with it mate!

    Doesn't look bad with 103k on it. I love the colour.. Oceans Blue is it?

    My Aerodeck is lowered on 16's with 195/45/16 tyres. I say 16's are great for MB9 and MC1's. 17's for MC2's

    Ello ello, long time no see Yes, it's just a basic rebuild. Once I can afford a P28 ECU and remap, I will be bolting on the D16y8 head which I also rebuilt. But once Christmas is out of the way, I am purchasing a light-weight flywheel and stage 1 Exedy Clutch

    Hi guys, you missed me? I finally had motivation to fire up the laptop... haha Big changes in the last 4 months. I taken the engine out to rebuild the whole lot. Work carried out so far.... Cylinder hone Head skim NPR piston rings ACL shells Genuine Honda valve stem seals All the usual gaskets replaced Basically the bare engine has all been rebuilt. Still got loads of bolt on goodies which I will post when all fitted ​
  18. vtec2011
    Oh no @Chandler the Aerodeck is staying with me no matter what!
  19. vtec2011
    Hi folks! Long time no see or speak. I do apologise for being so quiet in the last 3 - 4 months!! A lot has been going on lately as moved house. Anyway.. not so good news on the Aerodeck. Unfortunately the engine has decided to give up on 176'000 'hard' miles. Loss compression on piston number 3.... She's going into a storage container sometime this week and some major surgery will be carried out, and I'm talking some serious stuff. I'm thinking onwards and upwards to a B18 conversion and turn her into a track weapon! In the meantime I am driving a 2002 Honda Civic EM2 Coupe as a daily. Yes it has the 1.7 vtec lump which is known for being a very lazy engine, but to be honest I am impressed with it. I will try upload some photos this week. Cheers!

    It was good to finally meet you all and had a good little chat with some of you. And of course, seeing all the M's in person, there was some jaw dropping moments Sorry I didn't stick around for long on the stand. Me and my mates went to get food and then got side tracked by looking at some gorgeous motors on the other stands! I will definitely be keen on coming to other upcoming events. Oh, and I will get some photos up sometime today

    In the darkside of Civic5 again... @UnicyclingTom Thanks for your offer but I won't there as my mate (who is coming Japfest with me) don't finish work till later this evening. I think @Krzys will be gutted now
  22. vtec2011
    As said, I'm not keen on the exhaust but it's a whole lot better than last one I had haha! Ah nice one man, I got 3 people coming with me. Not sure what I'm doing yet but I'll sure let you know soon
  23. vtec2011
    I have completely forgot to upload a pic! (Only 2 days late) Been so busy with the car lately and staying up late nights getting things done...
  24. vtec2011
    I shall make a new sig once I get some pics when decent weather comes. I fitted a new back box yesterday but I'm not overly keen on it. Pics will be up later
