Yeah it looks exactly like that. Kms on the cluster say 106,000 but the ad says 110,000 so yeah pretty much. I've asked for the number of their mechanic, should probs do a rev check too.

Not sure if i should go lower... got about 11-12cm clearance at the lip, tight 2 finger gaps (my fingers, they small fingers lol). Looks way too high! Wondering what you guys got on your dc.
Slam rear? yes?

i have just a 2 finger gap, i dont see a point in going under it.
Only problem i'm getting is the front mudflaps don't clear speedhumps... the small tall ones hook my mudflap and make badass sound. Lip scraping is also raping my front bumper, makes a shitload of ugly white vertical lines!
mines a 120 mm at lip and is fine, ditch the mudflaps :)
I paid $120 for the mudflaps lol i wanna keep em! Completes the look imo
By the way guys, what you reckon, rear visor AND dc2r wing? or rear visor and wingless. also rear wiper delete or nah? sometimes i kinda need it lol but it takes away from the clean rear end look :(
negative rake is a big no-no!
front mudflaps are only rubber(?) dont worry bout them.
i scrape zorst, fsb, sump, gbox, front bumper, chassis rails
Not worried bout the flaps, but what they are attached to! If it was the rear mudflaps, they'd rip off the whole rear bar or some shit. Fronts would only tear off the sideskirts at worst.
I know neg rake is shit for accelerating and handling etc, but then why do all the commodores go for it? A bit of a generalisation, but they are the ones who drag mainly with their straight line power
Nah go wingless and visors, it'll look heaps better when you dump it on some nice wheels later. In the same situation as you about the rear wiper but i think im gonna keep it on cause i dont really like the rubber dot after its been taken out lolQuote:

Done nothing to the teg this weekend, too seedy :-P
Teaching my bro to drive, been slack and havent taken him in a month.
I have no more time to work on my car even if i had things to do :(
Been driving sedately on my current tank, hopefully i can break 10L/100km for the first time and see a 4xx number on the trip :D
Went out after work on Friday night, got home at 2:30am... ish, then had to get up at 7 to get ready to go get a wheel alignment.
They were also meant to fit some adjustable length tie rods, but it was to much of a pain in the ass, so I sat there from 8-12 for them to only do a wheel alignment, and raise it a tad... but I'm not fussed. Said it would be A LOT easier to install the rods if the engine wasn't in the way...
I'm still getting some slight tyre rub on the guard lining tabs, but I'll cut these out.
Pic of now Teg now... I'll get better pics later... I still need to put the front guard lining back in.

looks good man
Certainly does
Thats so fly!
Ma'farkin balla'!!
Thanks guys. I'll try to get some decent pics this weekend.
That pic doesn't show the alignment settings very well. Front has -2' and rear has -3', the rear has about a pinky between tyre and guard (If that).
I'm running 17x9+22 TE37's all round with 225/45's Dunlop Z1 Starspecs.
Nice work Yoshi, I have no idea why ive not yet seen this machine in person. D:
Keep it up ^^ :thumbsup::thumbsup:
New kicks and clean car. :P And you'll see it soon!

Fahhh big shoes = big ____
price tag? ;)
took my axleback off cos i was bored.
need to go see a zorst shop since it sits on my lca and is wearing a groove into it
Raise the car a bit brah?
**** that
Looks great, bruv. Reminds me of mine, with the clean, spoilerless silver look, and black wheels. Reminds me that I want my black side-skirts sprayed or shaved... Anyway, shave that rear wiper! :DQuote:

I realised I didn't have any crap pictures of my car with a crap camera (It seems to be the done thing), so I thought I would take some tonight...
:p
But on a serious note, someone on another forum wanted to know what the fitment was like.
nice nice nice! ^
front looks like it needs to come down a smidge
Sigh... don't say that... I just bought new coilovers (Ohlins DFV's) because the last ones (Tein SS) didn't sit low enough!Quote:

Rofl, atherton is soooo much rain. Makes me fury.
Got a wheel alignment. Steering wheel is ridiculously loose now. Called them up afterwards but they said it's fine... i'm worried they forgot to tighten something and one day my steering wheel gonna come off :S
got my 5zigen FN01R-C's and innovative 60a's today. will post pics of car when the wheels are on. gotta decide on tyres, looking for a nice grippy tyre in 205/45R16 or 215/45R16 (not sure yet) thats affordable (not looking to spend $200 a tyre lol, any suggestions?
you wanna go cheap like i did? sailun atrezzo zs+ 205/45/16 $100 fitted and balanced. no complaints... but i had cheap tyres before (sport comfort or some shit)
nah not cheap, my last tyres were federal 595SS which were a nice balance of a softer compound then cheap tyres and good affordability, but I wanna step up on these ones. maybe 595RSR's?
Robi.. Drive down to sydney for the citr bbq and come topone.. Tie rods install will be done ;). Thanks again for the pics!
Yesterday - northern NSW drive with some companions

After driving mate's cayman S, am happy to report there are some things my honda does better (imo) - brakes, gearbox and funnily enough engine noise :)

curious to know what he would say about your DC2RQuote:

I had my younger brother take some decent shots of the car...

Once I take the engine out, I'll be replacing the tie rods with adjustable length items (Bitch to get to with the engine in), so I'll be able to dial in more camber up front.
Mate just got his Civic, so came up to mine and had a little shoot.

Nice car.
I like dark metallic red.
finally swapped the front.

http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/...i/IMG_1377.jpg
Ballin JDM front xD What colour is final paint colour going to be?
Good job mate! I'll always stay true to the four-eyes, but yours is looking nice already!
Well, it's a few days until I get my licence back, so I got mine a new battery, put some air in the tyres, checked the oil, and plugged the holes left by my wiper/spoiler delete with grommets. It's meant to be sunny tomorrow, so I might get out there and clean off the thick layer of dust that has accumulated over the last six months. Just need some touch-up paint to turn the black grommets silver.
When I turned that key and heard her running smoothly, I felt so happy. Like new, ready to get back on the road.
its staying black but im getting rid of the metallic stuff. its going to be jet black.Quote:
