how much did the boot remote cost + labor?
oh btw guys, have you guys change the interior material on the side of your car to something like this:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/110513054...ht_2774wt_1396
the module and actuator costs about $50-$80. all u need to buy is some wire and electrical tape from bunnings or something and install it urself. there should be an old DIY on this forum. just search for it.
as for the material on the doors. i have had some black pleather to put on on my door trims, but its a bit tricky to take off the trims from the door to do it properly, so i hadnt been bothered to do so lol. i dont wanna just use spray adhesive and glue them over the top of the standard trim
yeah, I'm thinking of getting the RR seats, and then re-trimming the doors with either black or red.
how much r the RR seats?
Timmie's ones. A million dollars :)
lol hes got fd2r seats =P
Oops yep that's what I meant - sorry having a shithouse monday
Got some new shoes (tyres) yesterday, Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE002.
Feel so glued to the road now, haha.
My car got dyno'd today ;) no official results yet as it was a run-in tune. Ran into a bit of a hiccup too...after they switched it off the couldn't start it up again because the factory ecu locked them out.
So tomorrow hopefully they'll diagnose the problem and should be good to go :D

Check out that power curve ;)
Stock exhaust apart from muffler, would expect a big gain with more free flowing exhaust and winding up the turbo a few psi.
Stay tuned for more!
totally awesome!
how much psi is it on atm?
3" turbo back ftw
Very nice!
I think the wastegate actuator is set around 6-7psi.
On my way home from the workshop I encountered a CEL :( the workshop told me not to worry as long as the car feels okay...
Boost comes on so damn quick...I find it hard to stay in vacuum
and the BOV is so audible haha
So you're a Happy camper? :)
Oh yeah
winning! 3" all the way for sure.
have you got sway bars fitted or any bracing etc?
I took all suspension mods off prior to fitting the turbo kit to see what effect I would get with more power. I get a little bit of wheel spin in first if I launch it but still corners great with part throttle
get ready toooooo UNDERSTEEER and axletramp everywhere :)
Who wants fd2r seats?
impromptu car wash on an overcast day. wooo! lol

I reckon the mugen kits really come off well if you could relocate the no. plate
talkin about seats and rubber, my rides pretty comffy atm, got a recaro and semi's so im pretty happy. Just bought a fn2r gear knob but dno if i wanna use it =S does it feel good sorta wanna get a refund need money

Man I wish I could get some recaros with airbags
Xeno why not get fn2r seats?
Whoa xenonkuraz, you're located in Sunshine but I've never seen your car around; I'm from West Sunshine (white CU2 with a black roof). I'm from the Euro section but just thought I'd pop by the Civic's to have a peak :P You guys have some nicely done up FD's.
Also, guys from Melbourne/west side, is there a thread/mod list/pics for a gray FD(2?) with a carbon fiber bonet, forgot what rims, lowered? Not sure if the description is actually helpful but yeah.. Just curious to know what mods the owner has done.
Dude I see your CU2 drive down Glengala road EVERYDAY HAHA come to the upcoming honda meet im organising. It kinda sounds like you're describing my car there...except I have stock rims
I don't like them lol not comfy enough for meQuote:

Like hondata flashpro something. Thanks
Really?? I don't see any FD's that are silver with a black bonnet.. unless that isn't your car.. (I just roughly skimmed through these pages trying to find pics. Didn't really read haha). Only FD's I notice is my friend's white one with a black front bumper and a black/navy one. I'm keen to see your car; a turbo'd FD!Quote:

The FD I was describing has a carbon fibre wing too I think. See it in North Sunshine sometimes at Kumon dropping off people.
Oh nah that isn't my one then. I've seen the white fd with black body kit lol
hey guys, does anybody know how to wire on the rear brake light and front foggies for the mugen rr kit?
Just saw your friend at ardeer coles!Quote:

if u know wat ur doing you can make the foggie wiring at home, otherwise i think they hav premade ones with the relay and switch.
im trying to make a module for the rear brake to fricker like when the f1 braking... i think it'll look neat
yeah. that'll attract attention from the popo tho... and give ppl behind u seizures lol
agree with aero.
The fact that it lights up at all will attract popo.
I switch the LM's so that the the 17x9's are on the front and the x8's are on the back.
Has anyone here tried to get some poke going at the back, or is the sussy too soft? I'm poking at the front at the moment (I raised it a little too) Looks much higher than it is from the lip to the wheelarch.
http://i41.tinypic.com/69qtcp.jpg
fuk da police =D
if you want poke. 18x9+20 all round is doable!
infact thats flush fitment.. if you want poke go a lower offset then that!
i think the flickering brakelight is a good idea. it really tells the person behind u "HEY **** YOU I'M BRAKING SLOW THE **** DOWN"
Finally got around to installing my boost gauge...

(sorry for the crappy iphone pics)
It's such a handy tool to have. Now it's easier to stay off boost! hahaha
Consistently hitting .6bar (8.7psi) which is a good sign everything is working perfectly :cool:
video clip that in action! :)
well done n congrats on being one of the first to boost it
reverse mounted the BBS LM's on the rear. NOW much! better :) pics soon
Gave myself an early birthday present. Just ordered http://www.pioneer.eu/images/product...in_gallery.jpg Pioneer 3300BT for my Honda civic. Cant wait.
Is it this one?Quote:

That gray FD is a good mates car, real carbon fibre bonnet, mugen wing, window visors, rays rims (forgot which type, 6 spoke i think, gunmetal with a polished lip), lowered on springs, LED lights like Audis/Mercs/BMW, Angel/Halo headlights, 4inch catback, and just a pod filter, yellow tinted foglights, and mugen grill. He wants to do either a k24 swap or slap an ebay turbo kit in it.
Car looks nice, just a bit ricey. 4 inch catback? must be loud
just needs the stock headlights and non-yellow foggies and it will be nicer and less ricer.
pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Quote:

Before and after.
Someone take some proper photos already
anybody going to the meet tomorrow?
Ahhh, yeah! It's that one hahah. Cheers for the info buddy. Hmm, I would have to agree with Duffy. I'd prefer the normal headlights and non-yellow foggies. From what I heard, it's pretty loud.Quote:

this is wack.

Hahaha yeah he cops it hard from the boys, use to have stickers, neons everywhere! His rims are something rays g-games? And yeh pretty loud, lucky quiet on idle though
Oh and he has that Evo shark fin thing at the back where the roof spoiler would go, carbon fibre too!
Was anybody from here at the meet?
missed out due to work <.<
Fixed the idle issue I had with my car ^^ turns out I just had to use a better pod filter lol...swapped out the generic one for my old apexi power intake and it cured 3 of my issues
that's why it's really important to spend the money on decent parts of don't spend it at all!
EDIT: not having a go at you Xenon - i just read back what i wrote.
damn spliff.
haha it came with the kit and they installed it all at the same time...who knew it'd cause any problems! all good now tho.
Planning to make a vid of how the car drives tomorrow
hows the pull bro
You'll see ;)
hahahah will i now
how much is the mugen rr front bumper. . . . . (unpainted)
