It's just a shame I had to scrap the vti to do it.

It is but it's highly likely if someone else had bought it it would have been raped for parts and scrapped as well.

Happens to often with these cars, I still have decided what to do with the rest of the VTI, I keep slowly using parts of it for other builds. It's come in very handy to be honest.

Right guys, this is what I've done to the car so far. Sorry for lack of pictures but it's tanking down with rain and I'm still in bed after nightshift. Hopefully will take another load of pics in the next few weeks including some of the interior.

Exterior

Rear mid spoiler colour matched to car

Repainted front and rear bumpers

Repainted complete splitter kit

Colour matched all bump strips

Replaced headlights

Smoothed headlight washer jets

Smoked side repeaters

Team Heko front and rear wind deflectors (rears not fitted yet)

Interior

Replaced most of the interior with much cleaner parts from my old car

Complete full leather interior swap including door cards

Genuine Honda oem dog guard

Complete rear window tints

Sony head unit

Skunk2 gear knob

Password JDM gear gator from a DC2 Integra

Engine

K&N panel filter in standard airbox

eBay special 4-1 manifold

Custom stainless exhaust with decat

Magnecor KV-85 HT leads

NGK iridium plugs

Hamp oil filter

Cusco battery tie (fake)

Rocker cover painted wrinkle red (not a type r wannabe just borrowed from my B16b)

Chassis

Ultralite g-spec wheels 16 x 7 et 40

Nankang NSII Ultra sport tyres

D1 Spec internal drive lightweight lug nuts (genuine)

MG ZS 180 shocks

MG ZS 180 rear ARB

Eibach pro kit 30mm lowering springs

I think that's pretty much it for now and overall I'm very happy with the car. I was actually quite shocked at how clean it looked when I shined it up for mimms.

As for future plans, it needs a full new set of discs and pads at some point this year (any recommendations welcomed), maybe an ITR airbox and filter, respray a dodgy repair on the tailgate and I might drop in a GSR ECU someday. Other than that I'm gonna enjoy it as it is as my daily driver.

What a list mate!! It does look super clean and I can't wait to have a proper look in the flesh!

Discs wise, I've been reading up on these recently. Good price and a good disc. Plus they look sweet :-)

Cheers mate, those discs look similar to the black diamond ones I had on my prelude. I'll have a proper read up on them when I'm not at work.

My dad's just put some ebc ultimax on his ep3 and they look sweet but they don't do any for our civics.
