You're finally a member. Get a sale thread on!
Jprak ur inbox is full. Give me a SMS if u got my number still
duffy are u sure they need to be modified?
i had FD2R seats in my fd2 and timmie had them in his fd1 and the rails were exactly the same fit?
i assume fn2r rails are different then.... and wouldnt fit in an fd2 either lol
I have FN2R seats (with airbags). They're not bolt on, I had a look last night.
I'm getting them fitted as we speak. xD
These would be perfect for a FD2 since they have the airbags, I don't need the airbags in my FD1 but meh!
so the fn2r has different rails to fd2r? someone told me they were the same lol... LIES
wth?! i thought it was straight bolt on as well<.<
inbox clear, reply again=)Quote:

Anyone know where to get these.. http://www.konigwheels.com/s.nl/it.A/id.7819/.f

If you wanna pay me the 400 that I paid to get the rails made up, and cover shipping then sure
duffy what did you do to fit your new seats? Mine is vti-l so Ineed seats with airbag. If you changed your mind you can throw that seat to me for a very very very friendly price. ;))))
Hehe I'm enjoying the support of the seats too much! Wouldn't mind more lumbar support though.
Here's my UPDAAAAAT!
After a grueling 12 hours on the car today. Airbags aren't all that hard, just a very involved process of running all the lines and wiring everything correctly.
Result (in desperate need of a wash - me and the car)
http://img.tapatalk.com/6eaf0b31-0810-4a37.jpg
so much lows
Thanks for the help with the solenoids! And thanks in general for the kit lol, I can see why it took ages to sell, you either pay 600 -1k to get it installed or you break your back for 1-2 days with the car on stands! Makes coilovers like a piece of cake.
Where did you mount the gauge btw?
And i'm gonna have to buy 2 more long lines to get the gauge on the dash somewhere, the ones attached to the gauge are shorties xD
i left mine in the boot, i wanted to chuck it in the slot under the cig lighter, but never got around to it
very useful if you keep it in the carbin, can see how high or low you are and if you lose any pressure while driving :D
airbag installs arent hard at all, then again i already did most of the wiring for you already haha took me a good day to figure it all out
haha yeah thanks again! xD
I wonder if I can buy more nylon tubing from bunnings or something, then I'll run the gauge back to the dash somewhere!
And need to use use plumbing tape on all of the connectors and then clean the wiring.
One issue I'm not sure of being able to solve. RTA(now called RMS) - I wonder whether I can get them engineered
go to ur usercp and see who repped youQuote:

Just dont get a defect haha.
Nice car btw looks fkn neat as! :)
Arghhhh what I could have had - depressed! :(
Dez you car is/was delicious dude, one of my favs
drove through RBT, with bags at legal height, have mad poke happening, cops shining lights at back wheels and then spoke with another cop there, but didn't do anything phew.
I hope my luck never runs out (don't jinx myself!)
Saw a picture of your car at the meet bro, looks hot as ****.
Btw guys i am selling a mugen exhaust for whoever is interested, please contact on 0430309389 as i am not on the forums often
Thanks dude, where's the pic?
Most fun thing with bags and having a remote control is when people would crouch down to get a photo I'd pump the car up and look inconspicous, and they'd look around at everyone confused. Haha!
^lol trolling
for whomever was asking for the cabin filter.
here's the one I'm using

lol Honda recycling their old models. Its running a R18.
Maybe FD1 owners should change the H badge to this and resell their cars as new cars.
Reminds me of the days when Proton owners rebadged their cars as Mitsubishi's
damn logo why so ugly !
lol whats going on !?
Guys i need to make my front right wheel fit. Im running 17x8 +20 using 205/45/17 tyres. The paints peeling off and the guard has cracked a bit. I've rolled it as flat as I can and pulled it as much as I can. Any suggestions as to how i can fit it? Camber bolts? Raising the car (not that I want to raise it) ?
lift it a bit, and then camber bolts gogo
these are the ones I mentioned dude
http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_..._number=KCA414
Are you running any camber at the moment?Quote:

hey guys, i was wondering if yous had any weird sounds coming from the wipers(driver) for our civics. Ive noticed it makes weird motor sound while its on 1 and i tried putting it on 2 and its there. I tried hearing it from the passengers side but there's nothing so there's a problem with the driver side one.
i know for certain it isnt the wipers themselves, im assuming its the motor itself =/
any suggestions? im planning on taking it to the dealer since its under warranty till next month.
Duffy: Yea thanks man ill probably be getting those ASAP
EGB: No camber at the front... Not sure if FD's can get camber up front without camber bolts..
Ekdez: Dampers are maxed out.. whats dial in camber?
Thanks for the replies guys!
Guys I'm looking at getting some new brakes, since my discs seem to be slightly warped and I'm getting a bit of vibration.
I'm super fussy and any and all vibrations have to go. So I was thinking of going with ceramic pads. Any recommendations? I'm going to have to buy them from OS arent I? :(
get your discs machined first
That's not too exxy is it? They were replaced like 30k ago.
You can use camber tops. Have a look at the ASR website. Let me know if your interested and I can get you a priceQuote:

Pads are the one thing that I didn't do myself on the car.
It's never been tracked, not in my ownership, and I doubt previously either since I bought it bone stock.
I had a shop do them and was replaced with generic/aftermarket.
They were badly warped when I bought the car (real tugging feeling when braking). That combined with the screeching sound that I wanted to get rid of, so I got them to replace pads and rotors at around 50-60k, Car is now at 93k, but I am feeling vibrating, not so much tugging when driving. I have replaced the tyres (as I was told there was a slight lump in them). Replacing them made no difference, so I have a space pair of tyres now (as i believe the lump was a complete bullshit excuse).
Have had the wheels rebalanced multiple times. I'm getting the wheels refurbed next week, and they will look for any possible buckles, which could be the culprit.
If it's not that then it's either my alignment/camber/toe - which is quite overdue since I've been lifting and adjusting the car so often, I have not seen the point in spending money on alignments when I'm only going to spoil it next time I adjust the sussy.
So if it's not a wheel buckle or alignment issue, then I am putting it down to the brakes or bushings.
I am considering a pair of BuddyClub Extended Ball Joints (http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/mm..._FG_Suspension).
Also considering upgrade of traction balls (http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2224196) or the Fullrace (http://www.8thcivic.com/forums/suspe...l-install.html) or even the poly bushes (http://www.8thcivic.com/forums/suspe...l-upgrade.html).
Thoughts guys? I've been dealing with this for the last 6 months or so
EDIT: Sorry for the tremendous post - It's been on my mind alot haha
holy shit dude, quite lot of potential issues. try someone else's stock rims on. 40000k old pads and rotors should be fine unless you splashed then with water or something. maching isn't expsnive i don't think
as for the other things u listed,
i think an alignment will fix steering pull, not so much vibration, but they might spot things
i dont think new bushes do anything except for making ur ride more stiff and bumpy - they absorb small amounts shock
roll centre adjusters will reduce body roll and help u corner.
I'm getting the LM's refurbished next week and in the meantime I'll be rolling on steelies. So if I have the same symptoms on the steelies, that will eliminate the wheels/tyres being the issue.
Then it's down to the brakes / alignment.
Can anyone recommend a decent place in Syd for getting my alignment/camber etc set up? Dave?
Cheers :D
P.S yeah the traction balls would be great, they're exxy though, I know there's a cheaper brand that I can't remember the name of right now. Still looking at around $200+ship though.
I am interested depending on the price :P please let me know. How much camber should i run on the front though since its a front wheel drive? I'm guessing my rears atm are between -6 to -8Quote:
