KiNK43 Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 Busy old day done a few bits..Feeling a bit over beaks bars. Every modded civic in Leicester has one so felt a change was in order.Was a bitch to fit needed cutting and redrilling but its on.Got some fancy red anodized bolts so put a few on, tidies things up a bit.heatshield was rattling so set about finding it, made a nice pic I thought.Oh my days I have been so fed up with constant oil leak on the head. I've had billet cam seal, new vtec sol gasket.So last thing to try, dizzy seal. Fingers crossed.raised the front of the car about 15mm as manifold insanely close to floor getting battered. May improved cornering aswell.last but not least carbon wrapped rear braces while back. Forgot bout them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Nice bar, under bonnet looks very neat and underneath looks super clean. You think you have enough air fresheners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyfie5 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 ride height looks better like that! you going to be doing any track days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 Yeah I like to keep it pretty tidy. Only done around 800 miles in six months.As far as track days go its far too loud. Can't imagine I'd get on any tracks with it. Which is a shame. Toying with a new larger backbox. Or maybe turbo will quieten it a little. Who knows.

KiNK43 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 Haha like your style. My mate has been texting me all day on the subject coincidentally. He wants to get something. Cheap. Do some sensible effective mods and thrash the s**t out of it on the track. Have our own league for track times sorta thing. Maybe a Mazda or honda. Even a Beemer. Quite up for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 iirc, most track limits are sub 100 becibels at 3.5k, 3 foot back. I think. Put a bung in for the noise test, then take it out (then you run the risk of being black flagged) might just pass that buts its the noise at 9k that worries me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 For a s**ts a giggles track car, you'd not go far wrong with an mx5 x2, almost like a kart and not much ££. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
