  1. Yeah true haha

     

    Money is never really an issue if you take your time! Just that the better opportunities never pop when you have money! Something I really liked here is that poeple here have good ideas to make a gramp car looks really fresh and badass. Before coming here, I was thinking about selling it and buy a EK chassis, but when things are done right, the MB can looks awesome and is still more original than other Civics

  2. I like those wheels! Will look good once fitted! :)

    I hope so!

     

    Lovely base to start from! Rear quarter dent is in exactly the same place as on mine lol!! Wheels will look sweet aswell! :)

    Haha what a coincidence! :P

    Thanks!

     

    Good to see another MB9 on the forum! :D

    Looking forward to seeing how this progress. Those alloys look sweet by the way :)

     

    Yep, and before I came on this forum, I didn't thought there was a communauty that big for this car!

     

    Thanks for the wheels, they should fit well yep, but I'm afraid they won't be large enough!

  3. That's what she said lol yeah I know, cars are a real trap, I'm worried my MB will finish like yours!

     

    I like it so it's not a big deal if it stays! I have a lot of things to do before thinking about changing that.

    Oh, need to ask if someone know. I would like to change my steering wheel. I have an old TenzoR somewhere. It's not the most beautiful thing we see but it will do the trick. I also have a EG/DC steering boss. Will it fit ? Or do I need an EK steering boss?

  4. wow that interior is extremely mint!! great base to start on and you've picked the Aerodeck :D

     

    Yeah, it's really mint ! I'm still asking my self if I should leave the wood finition or paint it grey. Someone here done it and it really refresh the interior imo!

    And by the way, it's your aerodeck which decide me to modify mine!

     

    I like the wheel choice, want something similar for mine too :)

     

    Thanks! If you like this ones in particular, I can try to find the name which I forget.

     

  5. Haha yeah true. I don't even know why Honda made these. Since I bought some 14" wheels of a friend, nothing special, but for £30, he sold me 4 wheels with 4 tires and 2 were brand new.

    Here's a picture of the next wheels :

    Don't mind the Abarth logo on the center caps, I bought them off a guy who was supposed to put them on a Fiat.

     

    And yup, for the price I bought it, it's in a pretty decent condition!

  6. Hey guys.

     

    At first I wanted to wait 'till I start to mod it before doing a thread, but oh well, it will be great to share my love for this car, even if it's stock!

     

    Soooo for the story, I used to run a Pug 206 as a daily and I sold it to my gf. I was searching for a nice and comfy daily drive, not too old, but enough to be able to work on it.

     

    I was rolling and saw this car on a side way, under a huge amount of dust. No inssurance or technical certificate (equivalent for you NCT). I leaved a message on the windshield saying I would buy the car. The owner called me back and we took a rendez vous to see the car. It was in a pretty decent shape, some scratch on the bumpers, but nothing major. Just a bump on the rear quarter panel. The interior is in a mint condition. 275 000kms on clock when I bought it, (now it's 288 000kms).

    The best thing was I bought it for only 500€ which is approx £390. It only needs 2 new axles and some minor things.

     

    Here's the pictures !

    So at first, it was supposed to stay as a daily use as I had a Subaru as a weekend drive. Unfortunatly I blew up the engine, and I can't afford a second car now, so I decided to mod the MB.

     

    By now, I have a complete VTIS kit (spoiler, lips and sideskirts), 16" wheels, 2 Falken tires and D2 coilovers for EG. The lip kit need a little paint and I need to buy 2 new tires and I'll be able to install everything !

    Hope I will share many things with you guys!
