Cool

I went to see my car yesterday and took a few pics

I will post full detailed pics once all the work has been done and the car is nice and clean


This is before the door tints, the Spoon springs and the Spoon front brakes go on. My F1 tyres are already on. Oh and the TYPE R stickers to go back on


Inside shot, sterio still to go in and gear **** to go on.


Engine bay, Spoon oil cap still to go on and Mugen induction kit to replace the one thats on there..


Roll on Wednesday

Nice one SJ .. I think I saw these pics before on the Honda site.. it looks nice how you finding keeping the white clean... never owned a white car before...

have you done anything to it?? How you finding trashing her in the VTEC zone....

I cannot wait to get my hands on mine ... finally a car that likes to be redlined

First duty for mine is a quick trip to Holland next weekend.. I can see what she can do on those nice smooth motorways :wink:

Cool

Not modified yet - remember, I had my scooby 18 months before doing anything to her

The white wheels are a sod to keep clean although the vtec does make up for not having a turbo and even better - no lag

compared to a scooby, the ride is a lot more rough and ready. I feel like I am fighting the car a lot of the time but it is all fun

Drop me a mail when you get hold of yours - have to meet up and do some arty photo shoot stuff

Hi Mark,

What does the pipe that loops round the BB do?
These look soooo much nicer than the MPV Civic

Mate I have no idea... but Mugen must of done it for a reason

Awesome

Do you mean the cars or the parts ?? Cars from Mr. Litchfied

Parts from Here

SJ

I will defo drop you a line once the motor is in my hands.. On a sad note... I may have to sell my Mugen exhaust as I just found out that the Buddy Club rear Bummer won't fit any other exhaust apart from the Buddy Club Racing Spec III which is already on my car .... gutted.... (

I will know for sure later on if it will or won't fit ...

Mark
