The shitty paint job is fading.
Have a few marks, dents, paint cracks.
This arrived from The Nerthalands last week:

Anybody know what it is? Pretty sure the shape of it gives it away.
- Paid in full and ordered my new coilovers. Coming by sea freight. Should be here in February. I shall reveal them then! =P

Yea, but which one?Quote:

I came back in like 30 minutes or so, and it still wouldn't start, so I clutch kicked and it started. From then on, the idle was low, around 500rpm, engine lost power and the exhaust made this boiling-water like noise with quite a-lot of white smoke.
Had to drive like this back home. I am not driving my Civic for a while...
No service history. Now at 207,000kms. Even though if this problem is as simple as changing the head gasket, I would like to do a rebuild, a Super D build.
Currently on my red Ps. Not K20/K24 build just yet as I still have a fair way to go till my Fulls. So the question is...
D16a8/ZC Super D build
or
B18c7 swap.
???
How much money do you have and how urgently do you need the car?
some luck you've had with this car!!
i'd say find something decent and use it as a daily, then go for the big build once you're a bit 1) older and 2) richer
or, if you're already ballin, get an engine build started now, source bits, rebuild/recondition thewhole thing before swapping it in a couple of years time
H swap cheapest and most powerful option (except J which you wont find manual box in the country).
I ain't telling you!Quote:

Willing spend $4-5K including Hondata and tuning. Will DIY most of the work with mates, the rest to the machinists.
Wait, just did a quick search, I think swapping to B18c7 only cost like 5 grand for all the parts?

What I would like now on my Ps is to build my version of the 'Super D'. It is inevitable now with burning oil and blown gasket, I need a rebuild.

Wow. Such fast. Much inspiration.
This is what I would like my Civic to be like, but even better. A ITR, S2000, and even a R35 Killer! And it's just lightly modded!
Fuukk^^ that can't be lightly modded..
LOL @ 9:20-9:52!
Super D sounds mad...
