Igor don't be silly. Keep going with your ek1 bro it's looking so good. If somethings happens with the po-po then think about selling it. But don't change your plans just cuz other people are getting defected. We can't all drive around in stock cars bro.Quote:

I went to Autobahn to get my ITB filters. The guy came out and measured my trumpets inner and outer size, called uni-filter and ordered them, came a week later and were spot on fitting. Some of the people that work at big places like that are pretty on it.Quote:

so mike what are the plans for the car, now that is un rego'd???
full track spec, or gonna sit on it and try find a way to get it rego'd???
been following this for the last bit and just wanted to put my 2 cents worth in and say I'm sorry to hear about the defect DNYALL. Without a doubt your car would be more safe than some of those other sh#tboxes running around out there and no defect notice for them I'm sure... anyway, sounds like you prepped yourself and saw it coming sooner rather than later...
But I think it'd be a nice and fitting accolade for you to give OzHonda an official tribute thread with some of your cars pics in all it's great Honda glory :)
or video footage of ur time attacks :D
dropped the car off at the panel beaters to get my new front bar painted & door panels colour coded.
hopefully get it back before the weekend. :D
Good to hear ur going ahead with the colour coding at panel beater mate - post up some pics when you get it back :)
just finished taking out the sound deadening in my EK.
Brake conversion on tuesday up to 282 and DC2 calipers
Thanks mate :) Yeah Im keen to and will try get some sort of thread sorted out when i have some solid spare time :thumbsup:Quote:

I would love to go full track spec (welded cage etc) but hard to justify the extra money needed, now that I have a Mortgage to worry about.... Although now that i don't have to worry about driving it on the road, it does give me a lot more options. We shall see how far i take it, i'm not even sure myself.Quote:
