Was that you in the black civic with the nice black rims?
Thats one nice car.....
I just need to paint my kit and upgrade my stock speakers and then ill be pretty much done. Im trying to get focals or mb quarts at a good price which i am finding hard.
Hopefully when im in sg and thai end of year i can pick up one at a good price.
Hopefully not fake ones
Very nice...
No,only black paint. CF only nice for light color car (ie. CF on white/silver/red/bluish), but not black car --> looks like from far away, some section of your car been dirty (miss been washed)..lol
and also too $$$
you paid me, so nothing special lah...;)
get Focal, sound better tham MB quart.
not, just friends in SG, mine still with small rims, 18" :thumbdwn:

I found cheap focals at Westside car audio Cannington. Westside car audio are the recommended reseller for focals. I'm buying my stuff for at least a couple hundreds cheaper than RRP, same prices as online which are eastern states.(e.g 165 K2P = $640 i think)
there is alot of fakes out there so do watch out (especially in Thailand), the sound quality is incredibly bad!Quote:

hey all.. since the body is wider on the fd2r.. is it possible to fit the back seats into our fd's?.. if so.. where can i get the back seats?.. =).. i remember seeing a site on here to buy the front seats and rims..?..
civicdrm.co.nr is the site I think you are refering to. Well, at least they used to have the FD2R seats and rims.
And only the front is a bit wider.... the mid/back is the same width I believe. So I'd say it would fit.
oh oks, well i spoke to Mark (manager) and he said it was cheap. They have it on special or something. Been special for awhile lol. Since the K3P came out the K2P is pretty cheap.
i'm going to bargain with him on the focal Kit 7. ossy park alberts gave me better price haha (orginally trying to sell to me for 6k like WTF...BYE when RRP is 4.7k)
Omg 4.7 K on speakers.....
I checked out westside morley yesterday they are doing Focals K2P for 600 bucks, i had a listen to them and honestly i am dissapointed...
For 600 bucks plus how much for an amp to run it i didnt think it was much better then my stock pioneers running off my alpine HU...
So i am not going to buy them...
Just going to stick to my stockies or upgrade to type Rs.
why not trying to alpine 17Pro type-x.. using scanspeak ring radiator on tweeters.. never tried before but have good reviews.. =)
Very expensive TypeX haha.
I mean, for me i dont think its worth spending that much with out a substantial amount of gain for that price.
Most might think it is worth it i dont think it is to fork out another 2k for a small improvement..
Thats just my opinion =P
Hi Guys,
I'm planning to get a black mugen body kits for my FD1. Any suggestion where should i go in sydney? Planning to get an HID light with the eagle eye stuff as well.
Is there a one stop shop that i can go with a quite reasonable price and quality?
thanks in advance.
lol.. type-x expensive? ebay selling not more than 700 bucks i think.. is a good play.. =)
yeh but i think he wants warranty, especially if your going to buy expensive gear.
Brescia: That looks neat! nice one
that V-lip looks awesome man
makes me want one
can we get a eagle view?
curious into whether it sticks out from the bumper much
ahh not bad,
where did you get yours from?
im still looking for the mugen kits.. not sure where to get a good quality 1.. any1 can recommend me? thanks..
TBH most mugen kits are the same if they're made from ABS.
If u want good quality then go for the expensive genuine version.
sooo nice... love the v-lip :D
yeah.. im looking for ABS made mugen kit.. not sure where to get a cheap and reasonable price.. is the best comes with paint.. any idea guys?
erm.. 7xx consider good if u plan to use long term.. =)
Yeh I'm in the same boat as you I'm looking for a replica Mugen kit. Anyone know where to hook us up with one from Melbourne?
hey benni.. once u got information.. can PM me? perhaps we can buy together.. can get a bulk discount.. hehe..
anyway.. please PM me ur msn so we can have some contact and meet up 1 day.. =)
Did you test it in the store or in a person's car? the top of the range focal do the job for me but everyone has a different opinion of course.
Listening to the board of speakers and subs just isn't good enough i reckon. you have to ask the manager to sus out if they can get the owners with these speakers or any others you like to come down and for you to listen IN THE CAR. otherwise in my opinion, hearing from the board and instore is a total waste of time.
hi guys.
saw this boot lip spoiler (ducktail) in ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true
this is definitely for USDM civics. will it fit on the boot of our FD?
just got front strut by ultra racing...getting rear strut next week..
Where did you pick up the struts from?
mu secret....193 bux...r u interested in the rear??if u r...den i can order it for u now...
how much is the front strut bro?
I'm thinking of getting those struts also front and back.
Just not too sure when i am getting them.
haha no worries. well i don't have mine yet but i'm sure if you ask the manager to find someone with focals in their car that they have installed for you to listen it wont be a trouble. i know Allan in alberts Ossy park knows someone. cause he got this guy to drive his car in for me to listen to k2ps. so yeah just ask around, you'll get to see other people's setup as well so might give you more choices. don't just stick to focals either, ask for other brands (pioneer, alpine, hertz, MBQ, dynaudio etc) some brand are good for speakers some for amps (i reckon audison makes decent amps, imo)
4.7K ? really ? tought Dynaudio is the most exp. ones.
hey..nice mate :thumbsup: the first in yellow ;)
ppl said it will fit for ducktail, but nobody try. may be you want be the first:cool:
^ thanks dmx. this CF ducktail looks hot and the price is ok as well!
but i'll probably do some research first. might check in the US forums on the width of 06-08 USDM civic boot/trunk lid if its the same as the width of our FD.
hey guys, i got new wheels...black rims with red lip...i'll post up fotos once u take em and i'll post up fotos of my strut...
if the ducktail not up to trunk curve, should be ok.
but if up to curve area, seems won;t fit.

coz seems FD and FA/FG trunk shape slightly diff. :confused:
