thanks Yonas awesome product :)
got a my car back today, they resprayed the whole bumper, looks new, all the stone chips gone :D
now if only the rest of the panels was in the same condition lol
lol - trucks are a killa for stone chips, just don't stay too close to the car in front (ole 3 second rule) and you should be fine :)
... at least the stones didn't hit and crack your windscreen
yay, got my headers from my mate free of charge... the egay N1 headers... chucked it in, sounds sweet on WOT :D
Only slight side effect from it is that its running a tad rich... might need to invest a Apex AFC soon
want to work on it but there is a crazy mosquito plague at our place at the moment. makes going outside a bit shit... as well as the garage... stupid crap massive amounts of rain.
how would it run rich is it helps let it breath more, do u mean more lean.Quote:

And i never noticed how heavy the cast manifolds are!!!
came across this website with cheap 2nd hand EK parts
http://www.japperformanceparts.co.uk...onda&Category=
is it possible to use a bosch FR7DPX plug in a D16Y4 instead of a FR7LPX?
Washed and waxed my car:) now it looks as good as it goes
Traded my EK9 headlights for stock headlights+cash and also sold my SSR's :(
Went and bought DC2R springs, got home, jacked the car up and put in the front set, screwed everything together and took car off the stands.. WTF!!!!!!! car is now sitting 5cms off the ground! So I went on google to have a look and FML!! I put the rear springs on the front!!! FAIL!!!
whyd you trade for stock :(Quote:

Baller parts arn't really on my shopping list these days :( If I can be bothered I will do the DIY black paint trick on them to make them look half decent.Quote:

What's the advantage of having ek9 lights over painted stock ones?Quote:

Damn expensive though...
pffft why would anyone pay 500 for head lights when the stock ones do just fine.... unless they actually have a better beam pattern or as such, waste of money that could go to better use imho
yeh i just don't know why they are soooo expensive.... gee imagine how much it would cost to get new headlights if you owner a merc or audi or something... phew...
isnt it around 900 from JDM yard? yeah i guess it is a waste of money i mean i wouldnt pay 900 for a set of headlights just because they have a little black/chrome in them.Quote:

true that, i guess u just gotta weigh up whats more important, giving the amount of cash u got to play around with, but 900!!!! Fuk that LOL, as if anyone would pay that much for some head lights! With that, id just blow it on some coilovers or so... DIY Ek9 head lights FTWQuote:

Hard Race front EK camber kit fitted
mmm all bushes are now replaced on my EJ8 :) such a nice front kit, slides in alot nicer than s2 and wont move like s2 due to massive bolts on the top :)
^^ that is looking amazing bro!
I booked my ek in for a touch up (respray) on the stuff ups I made while hacking away at the exterior peeling window strip Lollol
washed it :D
got it mod plated and bought some new fixings
Took my rear bar off to see how high I can get the muffler lifted. Not much, but should be enough for what I want to do :) Hopefully.
Just dropped my car off to get the chromoly half cage fitted :thumbsup:
New exhaust is in, sounds much better than the shitloop

Washed and polished it, then polished the twin loop along with the lip on my wheels, then had a few photos taken of it at a decent location :D
Well done CK. nice great first car for someone on their L's. Gave the car a clean yesterday and pumped the tyres.\
TODAYS NEWS:
Ordered brand new: TANABE FRONT STRUT BRACE!

Definately didn't need it but it was dirt cheap so why not.

fkn nice GReddy_es!
i'm going to look @ your build thread now.
very very nice GReddy, good work mate :)
huh? lol, i got the exhaust from a website from USA. And got 2.5" Cat with 2.5" piping.Quote:

Greddy i really want your carpet and door trims. Did you just get EK9 actual door and replaced with yours?
yea nice indeed, its rare as fuk here... and since its ur part, now it cant be known as Mrwills car LOL
I still enjoy my cannon, its not that loud so yea lol... Been followed by cops an through booze bus, so no big deal... than again, its a expensive canon so i cant say its a cheap one as well
haha untill a K20 goes in its still MRWILLZ :P.
Rather than making a thread you guys see that engine bay up there? Is there a way i can buy that little thing that attaches from the whale penis onto that white part to make the piping more stable?
Mine was just held on with a piece of cloth lol.
nah door trim was a DIY done by the previous owner's mate haha am intending to get the EK9 door trim to swap the red bit over though :)Quote:

Not sure if this is Off-Topic, picked up my Green Em1 Yesterday. Needs a full respray IMO as paint on roof and boot has faded, but i bought it mainly cause the Engine has done 88000 genuine Kilometres and serviced every 5k at Honda. Will be making a Em1 Thread when i clean it up and get some pictures
Wow, sounds nice and well looked after too :) Any pics of the car yet?
gave her some 'go-go' octane boost juice and made her snap, crackle and pop ;)
also hit 60,000kms
well last night i hit 170,000kms in my EJ8 lol
ripped my mugen style front lip off when my car bogged in a ditch when i was watching the khanacross lol
Finished installation of sound system, now to connect everything, and hope for the best! Next task, secure the head unit, shame no din cage with it (2nd hand)
Ah and the dreaded rear parcel shelf speakers to take off.. That can be done another day..-_-
Washed and degreased the engine bay yesterday.Installed the new spoon engine torque damper in the now clean engine bay :D
Finished reconditioning Jdm foldable bike and sticker bombed it, it is like NEW :) + bought bike racks for my roof racks.

Connected everything, after some dramas finding a good grounding point, some success, finally some bass! Now time to not worry about it for the uni week (Till the next problem arises :P)
