Since I got a full time job a month or two ago I decided it was time today to pay the car off two years early. Now to save a bit more and have another big update

Haha hopefully not mate, that was one frustrating conversion. Saying that it would have been simple if the spacers where right and I was missing a part.

Finally got the car lowered today, Love the results, just one problem with one wheel sitting out. Any idea's why this could be. It wont camber in :s... Is it possible the coilover is fitted the wrong way around

Seen one of the new civics drive past me today, got to say my opinion on them has changed, I think their going to look epic when they release the Type R version... It looked mean when passing

If I took all my extra's off my car and sold it I could afford one of these right now, then from the extra's I could sell and afford insurance. tempting, but but my ep was my first proper car and I can't tear myself from it http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/honda-civic-type-r-gt--bargain/100866477

Fitted my brembo's and had 18mm spacers and they ended up not being enough, so got 25mm ones ordered and DHL where crap and took ages to deliever them so my car has been in a garge with no wheels on it for ages. Getting it back being better than ever brought a smile to my face

DHL delivery service are an absolute joke! My spacers have been in Belfast depo from the 6th and they are yet to deliver it and after a strong worded phone call the cheeky so an so's said that it will be Monday earliest... So haven't had a car now for 2 weeks and I miss it so much

Rota grid drifts are winning my heart over, 17" 8J sounds sweet right now,

I know mate, that would be perfect but my shitty kit won't allow that, so 17's would give it a better stanced look
Apr 11 2012 09:18 PM -
BassKicksDan
Yeah 17s would look better with your kit. Little bti of stretch would look awesome too :)
Apr 12 2012 09:35 AM -

of course, would 8.5J be to much?

I know mate, it's become really bloody expensive, Ran into another problem, The two sets of alloys I have don't fit, even with 18mm spacers ffs... Absolutely gutted to say the least... My car is now lying up in the garage without any wheels to fit the front, brilliant or what

Being a casual worker isn't so great when you get phone calls at 8am asking you to come in asap and carry out 13hour shifts. The only reason I do it is so I can crack on with my pride and joy
