Carbon Addict

Well I've still got the mb but it's been sat on my drive for 3 weeks not moving . The buyer for it pulled out. Driving a mazda 6 2.3 sport for now

Il still lurk lol can't ditch me that easy haha

Cheers

Well the mods are ending and the civic will be leaving me, either selling it as a whole or breaking it. It's been fun and it's given me laughs but me and the mrs have a little un on the way now , so I want sonething a bit safer and newer. For her and bump. I may come back to an MB one day. Il still lurk no doubt as in my short time as an MB owner I've grown quite fond of them!

Well it looks like it will be going in for a engine swap and all belts done. Only going for a d16 but gives me a bit more poke. Few other things probably. Took a trip over to Anthony (not sure on his username!) headlight chrome is now Matt black and the lenses are crystal clear and no more orange!

Wind deflectors have arrived and are fitted

Going over to VDM Motorsport tomorrow to discuss how I'm not going to mod my car more....

Not using plastidip rattle cans ftw lol. Got a rollered on chalk board bonnet lol.

Mg spoiler now fitted. Paint is being tested to see what I like for the Respray now lol. This not modding malarkey isn't going well...

Not after huge power just more than I have! I've got the colt as a track toy

Lots of research and saving I think lol. Brakes and handling 1st. Gotta stop!

I have been told the d16 vtec is a good engine to turbo and cheap aswell?

Nah should be fine for daily 200 ish. Colt was 250 but stripped. That's going to be mental though so won't be road legal

I've got a few td04 turbos in the garage. Want a reliable power. Useable daily. I'd rather boost as if I get bored more power is easily achievable lol.

Brought a 4x4 so don't need to sell the civic. Will be spraying it soonish but I've decided I need more power. Around 200 should be ok for the time being. B18? Or b16 and turbo? Also how hard is it to retrim the roof liner? Mines all sagged

Where to go next? Looks half decent now. Not after power. Sell it get a 4x4 so I can tow the colt? What's the maximum towing weight for the aero deck?

Haha that would be awesome but bye bye sump!

Tempted to Respray the car white. Opinions?

I can't remove the hump back bridge up the road though lol.

It's a bit to low. Will raise it about 20mm I can't get on my drive....

Cheers guys teggy spoiler and vti front lip soon

Not bad for £45 then my shoddy paint lol. Just don't look at them closely!

Um yeh this happened.... Mesh grill Alloys Coilovers New parcel shelf (mint)

Il get some pics after work. Steering wheel is just a stock one in better condition.

Done a couple of things to it. Fitted 8k HIDS De badged Fixed the heaters Fixed the overheating Cleaned the engine bay a bit Few stickers New steering wheel to replace the leather peeled and dented airbag! Still to find some alloys Iike that have tyres and cheap enough. Also got to spray the vti lip I got. Got a few other mods to do still. Might go down the coilover route if I can find some that arnt to stiff and expensive! After all this isn't my track car!
