darthcrab Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 So, I recently got myself an MB6 VTI-SI got this cheap and decided to do some bits to it, as I kind of like the idea of it with this basically.I am in the "process" of getting a turbo kit for it at the end of the week. and also waiting on a guy from Ebay to let me know when I can pick up the MG ZS 180 suspension and rear anti roll bar.Things to do before June 30th, for the Jap show.(not in this order)Fit MGZS 180 suspension and anti roll barBuy and fit turbo kitfit new discs and pads.decide on what wheels to get, 15" ITR ones or go up to 17"Buy and fit Accord type R spoilerBuy and fit front and rear strut braceOther things I would like to get done soon after.Steering wheelNew front seats, possibly Accord type r ones, not sure if they would fit though?Have the car vinyl wrapped in Matt red or white.More done to the chassis, possibly coilovers, more struts, anything to improve the handling to a good standard.There are a bunch of small things I will do as I go along, that either I can't think of or feel no point in posting up as they just seems like not worth it, like a cd player etc. but will post up as and when I do them.here are a couple of pics, not great but an idea. the last one shows after a polish and the swirl marks. paint really isnt that great with a few scuffs here and there, so that was my thinking towards the wrap. especially after seeing my brothers ek9 today freshly painted and looking amazing.

darthcrab Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 It's a 98. on a R. has a few crappy bits on the paint work, but today in the sun, it really does look nice.Yes, big list to get done by end of the month, but if all goes to plan, most should be done by the weekend. Suspension, brakes and turbo. fingers crossed haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Looks like a decent base, hell of a list to get sorted in just a few weeks though, especially the turbo conversion. ATR seats do fit but you'll need recaro runners which are rare as hens teeth apparently, I expect they could be made to fit though. Be nice to see some pics of your bro's EK9.

New meister coilovers fitted, buddy club camber adjusters and I guess the main thing is it has a B18c6 integra engine in it.buddy club spec 2 exhaust, jdm ecu, some cams from amuurica, not sure what brand. hopefully he will be ready by end of the month, but it has taken 2 and a half years for him to decide to take it off the garden and do it all lol..
