installed FIPK intake
Installed OEM SiR lip

205/50 fills the EK guards perfectly, unfortunately I'm running 195/55's, just not the same.

Nah bro running 185/55 which is kinda really small. Apparently the guy i bought it from was like when he imported it the tyres came with it so he didn't bother changing it. I'll change to 205s when these are worn out. Gotta make the most out of it LOL. And hows the scrubbing issue going with the 15x8s? And far 225/45s? on the P1s?Quote:

Thanks bud much appreciatedQuote:

Best thing I done to it was actually getting the car corner weighted and getting the suspension leveled out, it really handles like its on rails now.
But with that car, I couldn't do anything, if I did something to it, I'd get criticised for ruining such car.
So, sold the 9, paid 3k for ek4 (for the price I paid? I've probably spent more fixing it/parts/mods then the car itself)
Also, I can do so much more, it's like having an empty plate at a buffet, fill it up with food and go hard
As with the ek9, plate was already full and adding anything else to the car was like adding soy sauce on spaghetti

And DIY ek9 headlights and a detail

Looks sick as man, te's look really nice, is it the 15x8+25 one?Quote:

Thanks dude... Yeah 15x8 +25
Umm got a grey that is pretty much spot on with oem ek9 ones, just not as glossy/reflective.
Great photos! Wheels look awesome :-)Quote:

Turbo the b16a (would be good for straight line, but i'm not sure if the block would take that kinda punishment on track)
B18cR(this is at the top of my list atm)
B20 conversion (if i can't find a descent b18cr then i'll get the b20 and stuff the block with goodies)
i'll be doing everything myself, so i'm saving alot of $$$$
i'm going to be entering Auto-x and hill climbs too, so my focus is handling and a little more torque/usable power)
I've just replaced the old thermostat,was so knacked it didnt even move
avid tuner mounts (62a) car rattle like a snake now
hard-race torque mounts
k tuned shifter with spoon aluminium knob
Removed intake manifold and throttle body, cleaned and polished the throttle plate
De-carb'd the engine (so much smoke,neighbours thought my house was on fire)
inner and outta tie-rods
steering rack adjustment (best mod/fix i've done ever in my entire life)
car goes really good now,engine doesn't lag like it did when i got her, engine mounts previously were knackered too (every single one was broken)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...pssgpt3so6.jpg
Rear mount was a *&^%$, did'nt have to remove the rear bracket to install the new mount which was a bonus
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps0znmzsl1.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps0ot7vbuv.jpg
K-tuned shifter is the shiz,had an ebay special previously and it was a night and day difference. even compared to my old ek9,it just feels more fun and inspiring whenever I shift
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...psf2th2aqd.jpg
here she is, all repaired.before and after

epic start to the journey,hope she does well in the upcoming months/years
I'm having more fun with this car then the EK9, with the EK4 I have to start from nothing,adding all the bits and pieces is bloody fun and satifying. But with the EK9, it was already done from factory,doesn't need any mods/parts. Reason why i sold white pearl, just got boring as there wasn't 1 thing i could do to it.
thanks for reading and comments fellas,you've been my inspiration to stay in the game(after all these years) and continue to hone/sharpen my skills
kenny
Boost it kenny, a b16 can safely make 160kw, 180kw on a more aggressive tune and 200kw on E85 all on stock sleeve and block easy, if u knw what parts to find u can usually make ur own setup for under 3k easy! or better yet source a 2nd kit for 2.5k and slap it on, and u b spanking those b18cr swapped ek all day long lol
and as far as track, dont worry about the block, as long as u have a air-to-air oil cooler and bigger radiator fitted u shouldnt have any prbs on track with a boosted setup, all comes down to how well u setup ur cooling system for ur car
200kw with E85? I think you mean with 98 Barry :P
Kenny you are best of doing an LS/VTEC for good torque but still being able to rev the **** off it
I've got cast manifold, dump and wastegate/dump here atm
Also got some RC550 injectors too
Need a t3/t4 turbo, Garrett 50 trim?(.63)
Need cooler pipes and hondata s300 to finish it
I'm looking at about 200-210 kW atw, possible on 98 pump fuel?
And would sleeping performance be able to tune it
Hi guise i'm back, for some reason Ozhonda stopped working on my computer for a long time. Welp here's a pic from this weekends Honda Social. The guards are munged from a kangaroo btw.
