Just bought these off ebay.. i wonder how they'll be like

[aero]

Are they the ones with LEDs?

[Shimian]

i have those. similar anyways. Diff color and non led.

[curtis265]

i wanted LED ones so badly, but decided against it... those cost aroudn $100 or so.

considering these only cos tme 99c and $17 on registered postage.. it's a bargain lol! Just hope they're all good when they arrive.

[Shimian]

99c. Nice. You would think its made out of paper at that price. I thought about getting the LED ones too. But too rice for me.

[ekay1]

The type R ones are nice too. Anyone here have eibach pro kit springs here?

[howy]

Been meaning to get these for a while...

Finally came around as it's probably the right thing to do considering how much glare you get from our reflectors.

http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/h0wy/IMG_0560-1.jpg

[Shimian]

great choice howy. Are you installing HIDs? or you already have them in your stock atm?

[ekay1]

great choice howy. Are you installing HIDs? or you already have them in your stock atm?

I thought they were angel eyes O_o

[curtis265]

angel refers to those CCFL rings around the projector lens and highbeam reflector bowl.

howy, i doubt those projectors are designed properly for HID's ... (some have a V shaped cutoff which confuses me..)

take a pic of the cutoff for us, i mite be wrong


99c. Nice. You would think its made out of paper at that price. I thought about getting the LED ones too. But too rice for me.

wait, i thought it was no rice = no power??

[vlixcool]

good choice howy, sadly mine didn't last long or the inverter gave up so i DIY by extending the cable on inverter and move the inverter outside t he headlight in case if broken again, will be easier for me to change it. i got the diy picture if anyone need it :D

[ej20i]

the hid in em is different bulb howy

lol. ur right. If i rice it up too much, i wont be able to control the fd.
Cut off is ok. I dropped my right one a few cm so it wont blind oncoming traffic

[howy]

Shimian: yeah will be putting some HIDs into them

ekay1: the headlights are actually called eagle eyes

curtis265: yeah they're not 'proper' projectors but they will do for the time being, cutoff ain't that bad... will take some pics of when I get them installed

vlixcool: could you send me the pic please? :)

Tim: yeah you're right, low beam = H7 and high beam = H1

Anyone know where I can get some proper projectors (ones that fit D2S or D2R bulbs) so I can retrofit them into the stock headlight unit?

[ej20i]

well a D2S or D2R is a bulb type that "xenon' uses so u if u want em for your car, u need to get the oem ballast first which is
a lot of dosh!

[Joseph]

Just bought a BMC CDA Air filter for my FD2, but I can't find any Mass air flow sensor adapter tube in install ...Any idea ?

[xenonkuraz]

pics?

[Joseph]

Let me take some photos and upload soon :)

bought these ages ago - they're proper HID projectors. Either going to install as foglights or do a retrofit into the stock headlight.

Probably the first - as it's less effort.

[aero]

have they got a motor to adjust the beam height?

[howy]

from the looks of things... doesn't seem to have the motor/self-leveling.

How much were they though?

[curtis265]

Nah i doubt they're self levelling, that'd be quite hard to isntall

what projectors are they? Do you know hwo to retro? good luck lol

someone on 8th gave me a site where u could buy projectors and just fit them in like bulbs or something, it was 'no cutting just baking'

[howy]

interesting... could you see if you can find that site again please? :)

[curtis265]

found http://www.theretrofitsource.com/

[ej20i]

any one interested?

http://www.robearracing.com/pd_faves_hood_dampers_civic_06-10.cfm

[Shimian]

im more interested in this one Carbon Trim (http://www.robearracing.com/pd-faves-carbon-steering-wheel-trim-civic-si-06-09.cfm) to match my gear trim. Just unsure how great the overlay is whether it will hug the steering wheel tightly

[curtis265]

Finally got them :D

http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p171/roflcurtis/IMG_2755.jpg

Reckon it's worth complaining about this thing?
http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p171/roflcurtis/IMG_2756.jpg

[aero]

for 99c + postage, i wouldnt complain. if they say they would offer u an exchange, then u would probably need to fork out money from ur own pocket to send them back. its not really noticeable and the whole thing looks pretty good.
take some more pics when u put em on ur car!

[fitme]

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y35/ozcity/DSC01178.jpg

unfortunately the bracket doesnt fit to fd..

[eNGee]

getting an xforce muffler soon. just wondering if anyone here is interested in factory twin exhuast tips (i.e. what the FD2/Sport model's have).

[aero]

u getting a varex, engee? btw. ive seen ur car a few times around sunnybank hills. should do a meet n greet with the other FDs from bris on this forum

[ekay1]

Sydney as well

[ej20i]

create one ekay1

[DuffyFD]

create one ekay1

+1 to that

[ekay1]

Hmm.... perhaps after exams. I really want a FD meet up though. Need ideas for my car =P Yo ej20i, i think i saw your car at the OH meet up at whetheril, looked nice!!
Btw guys, anyone recommend any decent springs for the FD1? for handling more than a drop though. I was looking at the eibach pro kit and wanted to know peoples opinions.

[aero]

tein or eibach are good quality ones. dont give a great amount of drop, but i read on the 8th gen forums that they're very good for springs. skunks2 give more of a drop, but i dont think the ride and quality is better than tein or eibach.
in any case, if u wanna lower ur car on springs its best to change ur shocks and springs, if u dont wanna shorten the life of ur oem shocks

[ej20i]

yea i was there,
thanks ekay1

[ekay1]

The shocks would wear are THAT fast would they? I want a drop, just enough to merely cover up the gap between the guard and the tyre, not dump the car as some roads are shitty and gonna scrape everything. Nws Ej!

[ej20i]

kings or pedders would do
but do take a look at teins on ebay.com
not aussie one

[Stig]

i had a set of eibach sportlines for the fd, loved them, less body roll during the corners and if i remember correctly they were designed to work with the oem shock so wear and tear was reduced, then i just got coils... that shat all over it in terms of everything LOL

[curtis265]

anyone got these headlights? These projectors look good!

^ LOL!! would you recommend sportlines or pro kit? cant afford coils T_T
Arent they just Audi shaped headlights, built to fit the fd lol
And ej, ive found some tein s-tech springs. Im deciding between sportlines, pro kit or s techs atm. Prices are pretty similar, so im not worried about price.

[DuffyFD]

I've found a cheap set of pedders - what's the quality like with them - has anyone had any experience. I'm just looking to close the gap between my tyre and the guard. Yes with stock shocks. Shocks last around 100k so maybe they'd last 70k instead. It all depends on the roads too - and Sydney has the shittest roads.

[ekdez]

a member on here is using pedders springs. im sure he will give you some feed back if he see's this post

[fitme]

ekay1, there us a guy from gumtree selling his TEIN s-tech...for only $150...

[Stig]

sportlines or s-tech, i would recommend either one of them, i didnt want the pro kit cos a 1 inch drop, you might as well kept the car stock and put a bag of rice in the boot

[eNGee]

u getting a varex, engee? btw. ive seen ur car a few times around sunnybank hills. should do a meet n greet with the other FDs from bris on this forum

hey leo, nah not getting a varex, probably a PT06 or MP01 dual tip muffler.

yeah, I sometimes go out to Market Square or Sunnybank Plaza on the weekend. I saw you drive down Beenleigh Road last thurs night @ the Pinelands intersection.

me n my mate are going to the shoot @ Mt Gravatt Coles at the end of the month... could meet up prior to it?

[aero]

^

did u see me being followed by 3 cop cars and get pulled over after the lights on that intersection on thurs night? lol
i may be free at the end of the month to a do a meet n greet. wont know til a bit later on tho

[DuffyFD]

what did you do you bad boy?

didn't see you getting pulled over... but did see the cop cars =P

[aero]

wasnt doing anything. on my way home and got pulled over by two marked cop cars and one undercover aurion. got asked to do rbt, licence check and they checked the height of my vehicle. was also asked to step out of the car while they checked the height. took about 5mins all up and i wasnt issued with any fines. a bit of a waste of time and waste of police resources. lol there was no need for 3 cars to be there.

[ekay1]

ekay1, there us a guy from gumtree selling his TEIN s-tech...for only $150...

The ones for $200 from waterloo? Thanks mate

your car clears 10cm ? D: really?

[black8thgen]

where do they measure ur car from? like the front or back or what? =/.... im not sure i clear 10cm in some areas lol

[.k.]

they measure from the lowest point of the car :D they roll a cool wheel under the car, if it hits anything then gg defect :(

[Stig]

just roll a coke can under the car, im sure my midpipe doesnt clear 10cm LOL

[ekay1]

^LOL sif vip cars clear even 5 =P

[aero]

your car clears 10cm ? D: really?

the front is the lowest part of the car, but there's still about 1-2cm to play with. still want to lower the front more :p


just roll a coke can under the car, im sure my midpipe doesnt clear 10cm LOL

they stuck the stick thingo with the wheel and rolled it under my car from the rear. lucky i dont have any aftermarket exhaust system on my car and just have tips.

stig: if u ever get pulled over by cops n suspect that they're looking to defect you for ride height. would u be able to inflate ur bags while the cop is parking behind u and getting out of their car, without them noticing? lol

[Stig]

Yea but nah lol, I rather cop the defect for ride height than a defect for bags lol easier to clear, atjo did that once in his euro and copped a defect for bags since the cop was like wth? I don't remember it being this high lol

But if you do it suttle and the cop doesn't notice then why not!

[fitme]

The ones for $200 from waterloo? Thanks mate

there is only one tein s-tech selling at gumtree as far as i know...ive sent him an email if he can give it for $150 (originally $200) and he said yes..so its a good deal for 150 mate...go get it...

I did disconnect battery before installing air intake :)
Should i disconnect again?

[curtis265]

[aero]

You need to have at least one quality post point to move off 'newcomer' status and become a 'member' to sell anything on this site

[anansting]

How do you do that, really?

[xenonkuraz]

Someone needs to find one of your posts constructive and give it pq 'post quality' points. Once you accumulate enough you will earn the green dot. Then you must be a member for 90 days

[curtis265]

yeah you need to be an active contributing member. One helpful post isn't often enough.

[DuffyFD]

opens friday night I believe. Syd convention centre and tix are 20 a pop.

[xenonkuraz]

Anyone install turbo here?

I'll be the first ;)

[DuffyFD]

what's the point of turbo-ing it - yes, it will go faster in a straight line. That's good, BUT think about the other things.

I'm sure your gearbox will struggle and even more importantly, it will still go around corners like a boat xD .

The brakes on the FD's aren't great, and stopping is more important than going faster.

Just turboing is stupid unless you're going to spend more on coilovers, better tyres, and strengthening the chassis, and upgrading the brake discs/pads, maybe even calipers etc etc.

Theyre medium size common cars that aren't built to have heaps of power thru them. The Mugen RR and the Type R were made because of this fact.

[curtis265]

yes, i'm sure he plans to do that too.

i doubt he's that silly., and i doubt he hasn't already done so.

Yea, of course you have to upgrade everything for your safety....

[xenonkuraz]

What's the point of all the other Honda turbo builds?

Personal satisfaction and enjoyment :D the same principles go with every other car. Safety upgrades are recommended but not necessary. It depends on how the car wil handle the power, how much power you are trying to achieve and most importantly the driver's skill in handling the new found power...keeping in mind a turbo'd fwd is not a piece of cake :)

[ekay1]

Should upgrade first THEN turbo it =P btw, arent you getting a k20? please dont turbo that hahah

[xenonkuraz]

its all part of the grand plan.

btw i've got a k20. just not the desirable one

[ekay1]

[Joseph]

anyone here have 4-2-1's in there FD2 Sport?

Thinking to change it... but not sure about the price yet....

[ekay1]

What brand you looking at?

[Joseph]

I also dont know much about extractor...
Not sure where can i change in Melbourne
Any suggestion?

[aznboiio1]

mmm dunno, wat brands are out there?, ive tried searching onlineee, everytime i get directed to ones that fit k20z3 >< sigh
ii just want an extra bit of oompf from our econo boxes :D just the normal mods I/H/E

[liquid23]

You getting the kit next month?? Tell us how it goes =P
LOL stig, can the FD fit a 275?

kit arrived already, getting painted and fitted next month with black roof and black top boot lid

[xenonkuraz]

The ones that fit the k20z3 will fit the k20z2...as I stated in your other thread...

just a matter of whether the engine will be fine running it without throwing codes or something

the k20z2 is like a k20a + k20z3 hybrid

[ekay1]

hey guys..im finally going to be relocating to australia to live and work which means parting with the FD here and finding something new there. What's the best website to look for cars there? Thanks

[aero]

www.carsales.com.au is the biggest online car sales website in aus.
btw, what items are u parting from ur fd?

[ekay1]

And where abouts are you orgininally from lol

[NZFD2]

Thanksn for the site. Just parting with the car itself, still stock standard jdm fd2. I'm from New Zealand :D

[DuffyFD]

buy type R over then and personally import it. You'd be able to sell it for a massive profit xDD

[NightRyder]

Would you sell your FD2 headlights? :)


Thanksn for the site. Just parting with the car itself, still stock standard jdm fd2. I'm from New Zealand :D

[NZFD2]

^from Auckland :D haha sorry can't sell any parts of it anymore, its currently pending sale, just waiting for the money to come through.

[ekay1]

Dam lucky guy, got to drive around in a FD2R. Wish we had those here in Aus.

[aero]

there are 2 in the country as far as i know. one of them was up for sale earlier this year for around $56k

[brandonek1]

i've seen a championship white one in brisbane : O

[eNGee]

[Stig]

was prob brian's fd2r

[ekay1]

And the other one was from topone. Wish they sold it here lol apparently its like 25k in Japan =\

[brandonek1]

are you sure it wasn't a replica ?? =S

i suppose it could have been. i didn't get an up close peak. it was from about 15m away.
pure sex, either way.

[NightRyder]

[DuffyFD]

[black8thgen]

zzzz ran over a nail on the inner wall.... gay =[.. and apparently all 4 tyres need replacing now cos theyre bald.....

cbf replacing tyres what rims should i buy =P.

[aero]

depends on the budget... but definitely something wide with a mild-agressive offset :thumbsup:

[black8thgen]

18x9 with 235/40/18 tyres will not fit hey........... havent got offset detals of the rims yet but yeah..

[DuffyFD]

cya wages, work more for wages, bye social life, hi online gaming to save money, online friends = win LOL

LOL that's exactly how I do it!

Doesn't work with gf though.

cya wages, more work, more whinging from woman, bye sex life, hi online gaming / pr0nz, bye suntan, bye woman. LOSE.

Go to bank - GIVE ANOTHE CREDIT CARD. = Temporary WIN

[ekay1]

In the future, i want to get cr kais with specs 18x9.5 + 20 lol However, scrubbing will be a huge issue T_T Has anyone tried out these specs? tyres would probably be..... 225 or 235/40/18. Try those specs 8th gen xD i wanna see how it goes =P
Worse because im a student and im still paying off the loan for my car, b%^$% and a half.

[DuffyFD]

ekay1 - I'm paying off my civic and my cliosport that I crashed a burnt to the groud with no insurance. Balls hey?

[Stig]

9.5+20 will stick out in the rear like a mofo, need like -5 camber or lower on all 4 and it might work LOL

[ekay1]

ekay1 - I'm paying off my civic and my cliosport that I crashed a burnt to the groud with no insurance. Balls hey?

Holy shit. How do you afford to do anything then =\ I can barely get my car running these days lol
Really? LOL the cr kai looks so aggressive in 9.5+20 though lol -5camber..... LOL. All on -4 is still too extreme for me lol. What would be the best fit for the FD? without running ridiculous camber and good offset lol

[DuffyFD]

Holy shit. How do you afford to do anything then =\

Well that's why it's taking so long to mod the civic -.- no cash = no fun

[Stig]

Holy shit. How do you afford to do anything then =\ I can barely get my car running these days lol

8.5+30 will get you phlush

[black8thgen]

18x8 +38 up front with 215 tyres should be okay yeah? on coils btw.

cos i know ekdez did 18x8 +35 but scrubbed a bit just wondering if 3mm more offset will help much?

[Stig]

be fine

[black8thgen]

nvm just saw ekdez post up that exact setup lolol =.=.....

anyone know where a good place to get guards rolled in syd is?

[aero]

18x8.5 +35 will be fine just dont run 235s on em if u dont want to scrub.

pic of my 17x9 +35 wheels on the rear with 215/40/17 tyres. no scrubbing with 2 ppl in the back

[Stig]

the two things hanging under the front lip gets owned so badly

[chrishood]

Why is everyone able to see the pictures but me :(

... Stupid Canadian internet !!

[ekay1]

Fark! car sits beautifully man! Guess that the fd will never fit the rims ive aimed for lol.

[PLY44]

got my j's racing muffler :D

[ekay1]

How is it? I got one as well from Stig. I reckon its the best muffler for the FD. Looks excellent, sound is even better!

[aero]

Why is everyone able to see the pictures but me :(

... Stupid Canadian internet !!

i've hosted the pics on another site just for you. lol

[fitme]

i need 3 people who wants a spare ep3 rims so i can buy stig's rims. :)

[PLY44]

what bulbs are used for our clusters?

[ekdez]

8.5+30 will get you phlush

8.5 +25 will get u flush up front :)

[ekay1]

i need 3 people who wants a spare ep3 rims so i can buy stig's rims. :)

You have 3 sets of ep3 rims? lol there was a guy before, looking for the fd2 rims, try sell it to him

[ekay1]

8.5 +25 will get u flush up front :)

Can the dc5 or the FD fit larger rims? i was assuming that the fd, since it a slightly larger car, could fit larger rims, but i was looking at my mates car. His running 18x9.5 +22 at the front and its so fkn fat LOL but he still runs it with camber. But strangely, the space for the wheel on the dc5 is larger then the fd by the looks of it.

[fitme]

You have 3 sets of ep3 rims? lol there was a guy before, looking for the fd2 rims, try sell it to him

no man..i need only 1X ep3 rims for my spare....stig's selling 1set(4x rims)

[ekay1]

Oh, my bad.

[black8thgen]

hmm... would bbs lm's look good on a black fd with full mugen kit including wing...... (probs paint the middle bit white)

[xenonkuraz]

looks awesome Timmie, is that nathaniel's jazz?

[ej20i]

No. That's my jazz. Hahahahaha. Nathaniel has blue jazz.

[DuffyFD]

I though he got a new one and I haven't seen him for ages - looks nice and clean mate - just not a fan of the spoiler.. xD

[ej20i]

Is that on the fd or the ge??

[aero]

that modulo front lip looks pretty good imo. makes it more agressive

[DuffyFD]

Is that on the fd or the ge??

The one on the GE.

How much does the modulo lip set you back?

The FD looks sex - only thing I would change is to go down 1 inch size in the rims - that's just personal preference though

[curtis265]

u need something else orange on the car

[threesix]

Yo Dez, can you empty your inbox as i need your help ASAP.

cheers

[black8thgen]

18x8 +45 gold work meisters or 18x8 +38 front 18x9+35 rears for ce28s in matte gold??

[aero]

2nd option!! Ce28s ftw! Plus the specs are better for stance

Mirrors and door handles!

[ekdez]

[ekdez]

[ej20i]

door handles and mirrors orange?
dont you think it will look weird?

[aero]

orange pinstripe decal, tim! lol

[curtis265]

Absolutely!

I was trying to think of
http://www.autocarbe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/ds3_racing_05.jpg
but it might still be weird.

Pinstriping sounds like a good idea though.

Maybe put it on that chrome strip on the door?

[black8thgen]

pin stripe the hood/grille area maybe? or yeah get the chrome strips painted orange

[aero]

i was thinking more like the pinstripes on the skyline 400r, but orange
