skymera Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Hi allMy Micra has had it's day so I picked up this Civic MB6.I know it's not your typical EK Civic but it's still got the B18C4. It's certainly quicker than the Micra. It wont set any speed records but it does shift pretty well.The CarIt has 89,000 miles, a bunch of paperwork and MOT till end of August.The car has had some track use before, the guy was on RetroRides It's pretty much standard, it has a set of 35mm lowering springs and a stainless steel (silent) rear can.Plans- I'm having the window tints done pay day, I don't like being in a goldfish bowl.- I've bought some G3 rubbing compound to remove the cloudiness on the headlights.- Some BC coilovers, expensive but worth it.- New brake pads. Preferably GreenStuff. It has OMP pads at the moment and they don't feel the best.Stay tuned! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Nice plans, Meister R sell coilovers designed to go straight on these and we get a discount too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skymera Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 So nothing big happening yet. Gave the car a quick jetwash, just get most of the muck off. The headlights are cloudy and have a yellow tinge. I made some attempts to clear them up. A little better but still have that yellowish tinge. I used some P800, then P1200 wet and dry. Followed by some G3 compound followed by Auto Glym polish to get them shiny again.Both headlights were as bad as each other.Here's the drivers headlight before and passenger headlight after A bit of an improvement but I think the discolouration is on the inside. New headlights should fix it In fact it looks 10x better in this picture than in real life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yeah the lens inside go yellow, if you decide to paint the chrome inside them black then you could deal with it at the same time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
