to carbonize the full car.. start from trunk.. haha.. =)
I want that CF V-lip :(
Progress tonight:
http://a1.vox.com/6a00fad697b9e80004...d309860d-500pi
Even re-fitted the bumper by myself.. was a little tricky to do alone tho... now all that's left is the interior wiring...
my sister drove to maccas and hit the curb.hard. T__T
yup.. RR concept.. =)
btw mark have you got ur carbon hood yet?!?!!?
Should arrive at the port end of the month.. Then maybe a week to get cleared.
Dam.. Retrofits take skill... and balls to d, but it looks fvcking good, and you can put nice HID's in it too T.T
there are ready-made at taiwan now.. not those angel eyes which found common in market.. so is not a must to have balls to install it.. hehe.. =)
YES! Installations Without Balls!
That's an investment right there.
Recent mods, Lambo doors and CF Wing :D
more pics to come of carbon interior.

^^^ thats nice :thumbsup:. been wanting to get a set for mine...
damn nice LCD screen haha. looks so hot man. gj on it.
is installing the panel and the dvd player hard? r u still able to use the buttons on the steering wheel? i would also like to find out where i can order one that matches the audm civic interior. thanks heaps
if common model like alpine.. JVC.. kenwood.. u can buy the control so that u can match back our steering switch.. can search on crutchfield.com or ebay.. =)
You can buy one that is real carbon but it overlays, i have some fake carbon overlays. mine are moulds :D
thx man
Erm not hard, just need to buy the double din dash and buy a player and put it in :) the steering wheel control can be used, just need to attach a PAC-SWI Jack or something like that. just gotta know how to program it. you'll know how after playing with it for awhile like my installer did lol. took 2 hours to install my deck and only costed me $50!!! :thumbsup:
i jizzed in my pants
Ive gotten a carbon roof spoiler, and ive painted my buddy club wheels milano red
no pics yet
wow. red =O.
whered u get the cf roof spoiler from?!
yep,
so far ive found people either love it or hate it.
roof spoiler http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=106061
I like the roof spoiler!
does anyone kno where i can get the OEM duck tail spoiler at a better price than 750 from honda? and has anyone installed the mugen pedals onto their FD? any drilling required? thanks
hey watermo try traders here on OH i think i remember seeing a place that sells them!
edit- here's link with fd accessories but no ducktail :( - http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=106061
mugen pedals are just stick on i'm pretty sure. theres an adhesive on the back of them and they just go over the stock pedals.. too expensive though haha.
Wheel nuts need to be painted (black)

wow.. red buddyclubs
and ye, not a huge fan of the roof spoiler
omg.. is that a real carbon? how much u got it? mind PM me? im looking for that stuff long time oredy.. i thought i only have ABS.. finally carbon released.. lol..
can anyone point out which one is the fuel hose in the engine bay of a FD2? is it aluminium hose or rubber hose? i hav a Topfuel power neo given by a frd in hk but im not with my car right now, this thing will only work with a rubber fuel hose... so i want to find out b4 i take it back with me...
I wasnt either at first, i originally wanted a FEELS roof spoiler, but it was close to a grand if i recall correctly.... too much for what it is...Quote:

nice pics the red bcs look great! and so does yours stig.. how big are those wheels?!
question to anyone: just picked up my car today and was gonna go for a drive tonight but realised that the rear lights don't come on when the head-lights turned on. Braking made them light up but rear licence plate + rear lights wont come on..
i remember trying to put rear licence plate leds in but neither turned on. so turned lights off changed direction led went in and 1 of the 2 worked.. so i thought gay must have been damaged en-route - so put stockies back in and now turns out no lights work at the back haha?
probably just a fuse yeah? can i buy one any auto spare place or do i have to get a certain/specific and which fuse is it?
u can even get fuses at petrol stations.. did it for mine when i screwed up my lights
make sure u kno which fuse u need and is blown... they arent all the same
open it up and have a look which one looks 'broken'
will it literally look broken?
i thought the offset of those wheels are +45. isnt that safe? i was wondering that maybe the 8.5 width would have been more of a problem
Has anyone done wheel spacers on their wheels?
Stockies don't sit flush :(
thats an awesome shot lol.
correct they are 20" NKB's, drop is 1 finger all round.
was rubbing in the rear left side with 245 tyres, then got 235 and everything is all fine now.
correct! stupid euro offsets haha
8.5 offset with +45 JUST fits, hence most people with 8.5 offset on their fd's go in the high 30's for their offset
was thinking of going spacers, get the 15mm ichiba hubcentric spacers :thumbsup: or the 25mm h&r. they are bolt on, unless you get the smaller ones and you have to change the studs, massive cbf imo.
76.2kw atw ahahha
o.0 76.2kW ATW, i got 80.8kW ATW... could be the rims weight LOL although different dynos produce different results.
I'm still wanting to dyno the car again with the intake and exhaust..
i thought the FD1 comes at about 103kw from factory? 110 would be awesome on stock wheels! lol
^tranny losses, friction losses, every other frigging loss in the world :(
guards are already rolled :P i rolled them when i was waiting for the rims in the mail LOL
15mm spacer all round and flared guards means it can go lower, omgg must not! too much moh, not BALLER as you REIN!
no way, 80kw atw with stock rims, 110kw atw with red honda and type r badges LOL
yeah anything red or anything that says mugen on it gives you extra kw
hey, apart from watermo who else is running the short-shifter adapter 999 are selling? i wanna get one for my car but dunno abt warranty =\
Nothing gives more power to your engine than SPOON Socks! Fastest, easiest and cheapest way to gain those extra kws.. believe me cause ive got it on mine.. =)
most of stigs power came from the air freshener he bought...
haha u kients are funny :P
ok mods as of today maybe pics when i can be stuffed - i was in a ricer mood ( HAHAHAHA)
so got the following:
3M T20 tint all round
some black valve caps that go over the bit where u pump ur tires up cos some ****ers stole mine..
rear licence plate change to white led
hey .k. ar the rear license plate light just T10 bulbs like the parkers?
yea its t10 just like the parkers. very easy to change. =]
cool! i hav like 3 pairs of leds left from my old car LOL, wat else in our cars use T10? hehe
hahaha thats it i think. Otherwise i would have changed it by now lol. =D. Unlesss i havnt looked hard enough lol..
BTW: ****ing blew my fuse i think. my interior dome lights don't work, neither does my boot light. I was instaling some LED strips in the boot last night and this morning i went to check on it and nothing is coming on.. anyone know what could have happened? Im thinking the fuse box just blew... cos otherwise it wouldn't have reached the interior lights ey?
someone help =[
yea...chek ur interior lights man
yea just did. was a blown fuse. all fixed =]
thats good to hear, are the front parkers hard to change btw? gonna do my headlights and parkers this weekend..
nah. pretty easy, except on the passenger side.. its a real bitch because of the coolant box in the way, and with the battery there, very limited room to work ur hands with, and very painful lol, i suggest u wear some globes to prevent from getting deep cuts from the edges of the battery box (personal experience.. it hurt lol)
u just reach ur hand in, try and coordinate ur hand inside the engine bay by looking at where the parkers are in the headlight assembly (makes it a lot easier), then you should feel a small clip, (if u look down into the engine bay u should be able to see a small grey/black (cant remember lol) clip and yeah aim for that lol. Just squeeze the little clippy part (should be on the top half of the clip) and pull away from the connector, thenn just twist the bulb holder.. anti-clockwise i THINK, check the manual for that.. and pull it out then replace the bulb =D.
hope it all goes well mate
btw. edit: if your putting in LED bulbs, i think some types only work one way, so if u put the led in, and it doesnt work, dont worry, just flip it the other way around =D, and that should work.
btw u can remove the coolant box...
you just pull it up literally... lol
yea i forgot to say.. putting it back in is a bitch lol. it always takes me like 30min alone to put the stupid thing in =.=
yeah.. it also took me 30 mins to fit back the coolant box.. haha.. but was satisfy for the DIY job.. =)
