Don't get me wrong its a clean eg, but your stickers dont seem to indicate much about the car.
Id expect to see them on a 12 second na herrathrush civic. Not a stock civic with the rims painted white and bonnet painted black with a fake lip.
Keep it up though im jelous of how clean / straight it is

for me it's more of an indication of the style of car i like/i'm into, not what i have as such, i don't care whether my lip is genuine or not, or whether i have flashy expensive rims.
i can't afford thoes things, the car makes me happy as it is, and to me that's better than everyone being "OH COOL CAR BRU, LIKE YOUR RIMS." once in a while.
i love low eg's, but i scrape on every thing as it is, so it's not exactly ideally for a car that i drive basically everyday with a full group.
sure, it's not the most precious or well done, but as a 17 year old in school, compared to the starlights and beat down commos, i think i've done quite well for myself :)

haha, didn't mean to over-react, just had so many people tell me to lower the car, or buy rims, when i'm barely making ends meet paying for petrol...
anyway!
few more snaps :)
bonnet needs to be sprayed, hopefully i can find motivation by christmas.

hey mate first im not trying to start anything,
but if you are getting haters (because you got the i love haters sticker) have you thought about the stickers you put on?
for example "jdm as ****" "JDM" means genuine stuff from japan etc etc and to some people "JDM" is a really big thing to them. Maybe putting that sticker on your eg looks stupid to them because your repping "JDM" with fake parts?
like i said not trying to start anything just sounds like you got lots of haters and your sick of it etc etc, just wanted to try and help out lol

Dogsta pete.
Imo it's just killing the car dude. Stickers/badges only act as rep points if they are able to speak for the car itself. Until there's a k20 or 5 stud conversion and baller parts in the works it doesn't have the right to wear illest around, nor haters or jdm yo whatever stickers.
Keep your eg clean and simple and u will get brownie points. A set of rims and coils should take preference in front of 'illest' badges.
Not hating but am giving my 2 cents.

That's the aim!
My older cousin said back in the 80s when he was young he drank drove everywhere, He had a baby on board sticker on the back and never got pulled over.
I lost my license for 12 months, 6 months for demerit points and then got caught driving 200 meters down the road for work unlicensed and had it extended 6 more months. I never want to go through that again so the first thing i did was bought my "baby on board" plate and started driving like a nanna on the streets. Got my license back in December 2009 and i am yet to be even pulled over.
Heres a pic of my ass with my stickerzz

I feel your pain. The syd-nc freeway has a thing for chewing up cars.
Last year when i had my corolla coming back to sydney from a camping trip. Overheated along the newcastle freeway near wyong in the late afternoon. Got the car towed to a mechanics at the 24 hour maccas along the freeway. Slept in the car till the mechanic opened in the morning. Radiator was farked, all coolant was gone, sprayed all over the engine bay that is, there was no thermostat in the car either (got diddled by previous owner i guess), LUCKILY though, i did not blow a head gasket. So the mechanic got a new radiator in for me within a few hours, popped a new thermostat in, done, ran like new again, drove back to sydney. Parents we're not going to pay for the towing cause it was my tough shit for taking the car without checking it first before the roadtrip, they told me not to take the car and we're happy to see me get my own way home if something happened, thanks mum. Good times.
Let's hope it's as simple as it overheating from loss of coolant and you don't have to fork out for a new head gasket. Let us know what happens.

That sucks. One way you can check if your gasket is blown is by checking your oil, the coolant can run into your oil and make it have a milky like texture and will change in colour.

Are those KU26?
how have they been for you?
I used them in 215/40/17. Good tyres for $123 a piece (probably more expensive now).
They're a mid-range performance tyre. A little noisy IMO (17's I guess) but they performed quite well. Good dry/wet drip, good wear rating I reckon. Given that the entry-level performance tyre KU23 was $117 at the time, it was an easy choice to upgrade to the KU25 for $6 more per corner. But the KU31 is a better tyre, although it sure is more expensive.

i rekon run 10-12 psi if da motor is very healthy. should be able to hit 140-160kw atw with exhaust/injectors upgraded.

i believe you can wire tuck the headlight harness without putting the original harness under the knife, by running the harness through the fender and not through its existing firewall entry? i read an article about it somewhere. by all means if you know what you're doing you can go extend wires by cutting but some may end up running into electrical issues later down the track? there was also talk about keeping the distributor wires (blue and grey correct me if i'm wrong) intact and not extending them as problems arise?
not attacking anyone here, as i've been looking up info on wire tucks as well, hopefully doing it soon lol.
anyone wanna confirm/shed light?

i've actually tried using the same harness and hid it somewhere, but unfortunately, the harness was too short to reach the headlights/indicators and etc, i've done wire tucking before and it was a job well done. The way i wire tuck it, i had spare harness which had the same coloured wirings.. so i used that for the extension. In order after than, i carefully stripped it, soldered each one and use those heat rubber thing (where you slip it in where the connection is, heat it up and it kinda squeezes together - i forgot what its called)
Im not wire tucking those major wires like distributor or anything, just doing the ones that are safe to do if you know what i mean :)

3m vinyl satin black.

3m vinyl satin black.
Awesome choice. It's good shit, mine is still good, no fading or flaking. Just a few scratches here and there from stupid passengers in the back.
Was considering painting both door trims and dash black too. But im gonna look into see how much it would cost to get the door trims retrimmed in black stuff (suede, vinyl whatever) and same for the dash. If it's too expensive, then forget it. Spray cans all the way.
next im gonna do some wire tucking and maybe spray my headers
Looks good so far !! but please dont PAINT the header - rip it off an get the wet and dry sandpaper onto it.. then some Meguiars METAL POLYSH and you get THIS:
http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/VTEChnique/BG%20Del%20Sol/BG_EG2_11-1.jpg
this was just an hour or two spent on it but if you go for a few more then you get as-new.. and it re-bronzes etc..
then all u need to do is give it a light polish every 6 months or so..

30-05-2011, 05:36 PM

Pop down to a bunnings/tool shop and see if they have any ez-outs that will work. It's like a regular drill bit with a grabbing bit at the end that you stick into the worn out head and reverse it out with a drill.
http://www.brokentap.com/easy-outs.html
Other than that, dremeling a slot sounds like the best way.
