  1. Fantastic! Ignore the pm I sent u @UnicyclingTom thanks
  2. Are the mg zs 180 shocks a straight swap then? I don't want to pay stupid money for coilovers if the mg ones fit straight away
  3. Not sure what I want yet really... wouldn't mind a deck.. usually quite high mileage tho
  4. Yeah man. It's definitely gonna be a budget build for now just to look reasonable for the stand. Gonna order some fk suspension at the end of the month and hopefully paint the wheels... I'm thinking graphite in colour possibly?
  5. Ah ok. I sent over the dosh yesterday so I think I've got a spot on the stand... better get the old girl 'stand worthy' now!
  6. @sambobuchanan can u stick up a link for where u got the n1 from please? Did it require modding to fit? Is it road legal? Thanks
  7. They do come with a year guarantee though.. if I'm being honest... I'm not gonna keep this mb for much more than that. It's 117k miles as it stands so i just want to lower it for meets and events. My next mb will have lower mileage and a bigger engine, so I would spend more on stuff like that.. plus I don't fancy getting lowering springs or the £120 eBay specials haha. Thanks for the heads up though @Jayhoath83
  8. I have been finding it difficult to find a full set of suspension with a decent drop for a decent price. However, while digging for information, I found a thread right here on the civic5 forum where someone shared a link that shined a beacon of light upon me in what seemed to be some dark times hunting for the elusive springy stuff and now I am passing on the message to whoever is looking for reasonably priced suspension! http://www.venommotorsport.com/product/suspension/SU16747/ Definitely saving up for these. If anyone has them installed, I would welcome a review on overall quality and handling.. thanks
  9. So is it a straight fit for ek coilovers then?
  10. @Chandler I've missed the deadline haven't I? Or was that just for a spot on the stand?
  11. Hopefully I can get my wheels refurbished, painted and drop the ride height before japfest. Does anyone know what are the best (and cheapest lol) lowering springs for standard suspension? Links would be great! Fanks
  12. Yeah I quite like the fake wood also! I know dude, I was looking forward to japday as well There will always be others though! There's no reason why I can't attend japfest, I was gonna ask if there was a due date on japfest but I'll just check the thread.
  13. Thanks @Chandler It's one of those ever growing lists I'm afraid :/ I won't be able to make it to japday because I can't pay this month but hopefully make it to another meet, then I can finally get to meet some of u
  14. Thanks gents. The radio already had carbon on it so i thought i'd carry on the trend.. Here's a list of bits that still need to be done.. New discs and pads Paint brake calipers red. Repair and paint original wheels. New tyres. De-badge boot. Lowering springs. Carbon wrap bonnet (and a great possibility of doing the roof and boot because or the war scars it has accumulated....) Repair small dents and scuffs/scratches on bodywork. All red hoses and cables under the bonnet. Paint rocker cover black and the writing in red. Cool air intake. Sporty back box to makes it sound as good as it'll look. De-chrome and mesh the front grille. De - chrome headlights And finally some "very different" fog lights And some more photos for your viewing pleasure... P.S i was cleaning the engine at the time with some home brewed cleaner and the wheels in the photo are the ones i'm refurbing to black centre/spokes, same colour outer lip and a red H.... and i wrapped the chrome boot handle ( poorly so i'm gonna do it again)
  15. As you may already know, i have a MB2 1.4s. Unfortunately i'm not active on the forum as much as i'd like to be at the moment.... So to make up for it, here is my photo whoring thread of the bits and pieces i have done already Got a new Sony radio with usb/aux. Carbon wrapped plastic parts under the radio. (gonna do some more wrapping when i get a bit more confident) my colour scheme is gonna be Silver/Black/Red... More photos to come..
  16. Ok thanks. I'll update when I have fixed the leak to help other people.
  17. Check on the windscreen.. No sunroof.. Gonna check the scuttle panel today.. Where is the pollen filter located?
  18. Hey guys. Has anyone had their passenger side footwell swimming in water? It's becoming a pain in the rectum because on a cold day the condensation frosts over in the mb2... I'm also getting sick of waiting almost 20 minutes for it to de-mist. Anyway... I'm having difficulty locating the leak.. I think it is coming from behind the glovebox area but I can't be sure. Any help is appreciated!
  19. Lows? If its suspension you're talking about... only the standard at the moment.
  20. I need some help guys! I'm Looking to buy these wheels in the link below http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Product.do?method=view&n=5599&g=484134&p=697038&d=124&c=4&l=2&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=Base&utm_campaign=Rota%20Alloy%20Wheels&gclid=Cj0KEQiA_MK0BRDQsf_bsZS-_OIBEiQADPf--nGepPZgOs45towJsSeI1yvspdnTz2MDCueenpzMInwaAhhV8P8HAQ I want to get them in gunmetal with a polished lip... 17", 4x100, 7.5" width and the offset is 45. Will they rub or give me any kind of grief?
  21. Evening everyone! I'm hoping someone could help me out.. my civic has 116,000 miles on the clock and I'm just wondering what I can do to kind of renew/modify my engine for either same or more power output on the cheap? Possibly a performance camshaft.... I'm stuck for ideas for performance on the cheap (I'm in a minimum wage job atm). Any help would be great. Possibly some links to websites and such... Thanks
  22. Certainly 100% real fake wood right there! Neither can i mate, i can't fecking wait to get me hands dirty now! Just waiting on the carbon wrap and the tint film for the rear lights.... just starting out small on it for now until i can muster up some dosh for the next stage.
  23. Here's some more photos of her.... expect to see some mods soon. This'll be an on going project for quite a while so if ur interested.... stay tuned! Gonna be doing some carbon effects next weekend so i'll post some more pics up then!
  24. Cheers gents! The previous owner didn't look after her at all It had handprints burned into the paint in the back doors, a few dents and stone chippings. She was a filthy girl when I picked her up so the first thing I did was give it a good ol' wash and a t-cut and got to work on the interior... I'll pist some pics up in a bit when I'm at my desktop
