dont go overboard with the claims bro.. you're still rollin an EK4 performance wise.
hahaha you know I'm just baggin you Adam... we're talkin about EP3 type R here
:roll:
i now the differences but in a sensible realistic world, would you rerivett the chasis of an EK4 just so u can have the same amount as the EK9 ?
My suspension has been stiffened and lowered with Lovell springs and i have a 00ITR transmission with LSD.
Adam your EK is still 200% different from a genuine Type-R.
Bede dont try to make me look like a dick when YOU came over and helped out with stripping and rebuilding my interior ;)Quote:

Yes i still have a B16A but have an upgraded intake / 4-1 racing header and exhaust superior to the EK9 so is still EK4 performance wise ?
SHUT-DOWN !!!
( hahaha sorry couldnt resist - personal joke )
Atleast i have a Honda Marz ... with VTEC :DQuote:

Bede - you were right about Adam! LoL!
Adam YOU are making yourself look like a dick with your bogus claims - I am trying to stop you making yourself look like a dick.Quote:

your ONLY type-R PERFORMANCE upgrade is the ITR gearbox.
Red valve cover does not count as a performance upgrade.
Brakes same but smaller ? then they are NOT the same.. size is everything when it comes to brakes !!!!
and with the welded sub-frame braces - you dont have them.. you dont even know what we are talking about I dont think.. they are under the bumper assembly - in front of the radiator support / crossmember. it is welded in. There is also one at the rear under the rear bumper. the EK9 also has upper and lower strut-TOWER braces.. you have an EK4 front strut TOWER brace and that's all. Stabilizer bar is NOT a Tie-bar.
you have created a Civic Type R REPLICA - not a conversion as 'conversion' suggests a performace modification...
now we are not dissing your car and the time and money you have invested into your car - just the way you keep going on about it as a type R.
SHUT DOWN!
^^^ what they said!
never got to drive ... umm yes i did :roll:Quote:

What do YOU actually know ?
If you dont know anything then STFU ! OZHonda doesnt want to hear your negative criticism because you sold your Honda for an inferior Nissan.
Bogus claims. WTF !!!Quote:

i clearly said what my car is and spelled out in plain english you knob that its not a genuine R but a built up EK4.
Did i say a red valve cover increases performance ? Ur the one making BOGUS claims bro .. not me.
I didnt say the brakes were smaller - i CLEARLY referred to the BRACES !!!! cant you read ? Prove me wrong :) But as you mentioned the brakes, what are the differences between the EK9 and EK4 brakes?
Im not going on about it as being a Type R and never have. Coming from someone who has a bone stock EG6. Id back off your high horse with what your saying because its not your car. ;)
