Anyone ever considered doing magnetic bolts on transmission/engine? Also what about a voltage stabiliser? Just interested on some random things to do at the moment :-p
Also buying some lug nuts, should I go all baller on some mugen lug nuts?

voltage stabiliser did shit all for me - i had the ignition one only good thing was i could see the battery voltage level lol
kk sweet, I had a feeling that was going to be the outcome of that one, saw a photo of the buddyclub one which had that engine bay bling factor though :-P
I have a stabilizer it's useless.Quote:

Or at least edit it to "the pre-2009 models don't have air bags in the seats" (if that's true or not).
i do have fd2r seats, and there are no airbags on them so im assuming theyre the same with the evo7 seats
vti-L does have side airbags in the seats - even pre facelift
So you have the light visible on your dash or have you removed the light or what? Or have the FD2R seats cancelled it out all together?Quote:

getting seats with airbags or without airbags wouldnt matter to me
no airbag lights on dash
So I'm presuming from your post, the pre-facelift FD1 doesn't have air bags on the seats? Because the facelift FD1 does.
its possible to have the light removed. But it is a bitch and not worth your time and effort unless you're actually serious about tracking the car.
I know a few DC5S owners have just put a piece of tape over the light lol... so as to avoid any defects from cops - which means they're confident enough that airbags will still deploy
I however did ask a Honda dealership mechanic if he knew whether or not the airbag will deploy if the light is on --> he says NO, which was enough to scare the shit out of me so I just sold my fd2r seats (to itachi lol).

If only I had $2000 to blow right now ;-(
from what i knowQuote:

The mechanic could have said it to you from a legal standpoint duty of care thing per say but that's being presumptuous on my behalf.
The guys on the US forum have gone to the lengths of removing the light to buying all the required sensors that are in the stock seats and placing them underneath the seats to give them some peace of mind, but unfortunately I haven't come across anything about whether if the air bags have or have no deployed in the event that the car is hit, but I would presume they all would technically, just no verification.
Ah ok, thanks for that, wasn't sure to be honest.Quote:

Because they have all the necessary bits to not cause any problems I think.
Man it's like this thread has a seat conversation each week!
speaking of seat conversions, the rear fd2r seats would just be straight bolt on yea? just that it has 2seats instead of 3Quote:

I agree hahaha.Quote:

rummage through jdmst forums a pair pops up every now and then for around 1.4k ^^
on top of that wouldnt u need rails since its not straight bolt on $$$Quote:

the guy is selling front and rear fd2r for 2k
same guy is selling heaps of FD2R parts, seen a front bumper and side skirts from the same guy, he might even have some interior parts ;-)Quote:

Needs more exposure, the wheels are so much more shinier irl.
I'm happy with them I guess
dude....
have you considered frangipani stickers?
the FD civic is one of the best 4 door shaped hondas ever. how people make them look like vin diesels smashed ass after one of his movie after partys is beyond me.
imo of course. :)
mines clean as.
will be poasting pics soon aye.
Slam that car
unique set-up man, its different, but still nice.Quote:

and in regards to the airbag light. I've been told by bennjamin (moderator on ozhonda) that they should deploy. Furthermore, top one says that they should as well. In saying this, im not saying that they WILL deploy, but that they SHOULD. I'm sure no one really wants to test this theory :P
17x8.5 rearsQuote:

Yeah i asked Deddy as well he said they should. Someone in USA with an rsx i think said the airbags DID deploy even though his light was on. BUT, rsx would have had an older sensor so you never know - either way, testing out the theory is just ridiculous lol - unless you pulled some stuntman shit and jumped out before the car crashes.....Quote:
Originally Posted by Areis

haha yeah true true! also, the RSX and FDs have a similar ECU setup. Deddy tried to bypass my ecu so that the airbag light wont show but no success. He said it was very similar to the DC5S ones as he can't bypass those either.Quote:
