same profile? and width lol?
ye of course!
205/55/R16. They seem to bulge a lot more on VTi-L stockes though - weird.
the original ER30's seemed to look more low profile.
thats weird.. maybe because the re001 has a stiff sidewall so it appears that way .. but since theyre the same brand should be quite similiar in sizing ..
i want to replace my steely spare rims with ep3 rims 17"....anyone wants to group buy?..saw like $600 for a set..but i only need one..
wtff 600 for a set? WHERE?!
im the one thats selling it...
merry xmass FD heads!!!!!!!!!!
drive safe!!!!!!!!!!
al
holy crap! talk about mass stickers
some low life wanker stole all my valve caps off the cr kai
Probably a kid who wanted valve stems for his bicycle. Happens. Tyre shop put metal valve stems on for me :)
oh btw, my RE001's are super thick profile... and well, the kinda sag at the bottom at 38PSI. Is that meant to happen..?!!?
38psi? isnt that too hard?
curtis can you post pic?...saw a fd2 with ep3rims wrap with re001 215/45/17..and yeah its kinda thick compared to my michelin pilot...i like the re070 but its pricy
farr u had work valve caps? jealous sh*ts
tyres with 55 aspect ratio you would expect to sag a little, but i thought re001 had stiff sidewalls? surely would sag less than the er30 ..
yeah they were all work valve caps, gonna cost me 80$ to replace them now
I thought you sold the cr kai?
yeah i did!
my friend is borrowing my t1s atm to see how they look on his car and i have his cr kai
gonna grab them back once the bags are in :)
I'll get a pic when i get home and all that. Gotta compare to ER30's too, but i don't think i have a pic of that - i'll just take a snap of it on mazda6 wheels.Quote:

lol I think everyones getting confused.. i think stig is selling FD2 rims which are exactly the same as the EP3r rims except the EP3r are in white. unless hes selling EP3r wheels aswell .. baller
nah cos ep3 (without the r) are the same as fd wheels, but the ep3r are in white - which seem to be wanted by a few ppl lol.
oh btw saw a white 09 fd with ep3r rims, looks pretttyy nice
wow... definitely low life scum.Quote:

i saw an ad at firesport for an rr rear lip which i was thinking of getting since my mugen is all efffed!'LOL!
but if u leave it effed it looks rallystyle/driftstyle!
a D-Spec Honda Civic?
Ultra unhappy with my efforts at installing these, as you can see they're not quite straight. The drill kept slipping to the right causing the pedals to be slightly wonky. Hopefully it's not to noticeable.

edit: looking at them more, i'm starting to get ultrapissedoff with myself now >=( Once i started drilling the hole, you can't exactly move the drill again, cos you'll slip back in. My only option is to file it such that the hole gets a bit bigger...
looks fine, man. good work :thumbsup:
looks aiight... needs a matching footrest
The brake and clutch are rotated clockwise. I'm going to file out the holes to move them around a bit.. either that or redrill them to allow a bit of movement.
strutking doesn't make a footrest, i have a LHD one here with me... might sell it bak to someone in the US. A RHD plate is in development
ummm, does anyone else have a problem with the gearbox? all of a sudden my 1st &2nd gear dont get into gear... wtf!
before drilling you should pinch it with a nail first, so that when you drill it, it wont slide..Quote:
Once i started drilling the hole, you can't exactly move the drill again, cos you'll slip back in
anyway nice pedal..might get one soon..
looks nice curtis, good job not that noticeable!
Yeh i should have used a centre ounch or drilled out a pilot hole T.T...Quote:

im so want the hybrid seats..
have you thought about drilling the hole abit bigger.. then putting rings to straighten it up?.. =SQuote:

I just drilled the holes a big bigger - still not straight enough. On the brake pedal i've got very badly... the bottom hole isn't even in the middle of the pedal T.T
Tried redrilling near it but then it kept slipping into the hole... I'll persist later though, it'll get there eventually.
moral of the story: don't rush the job! - mark the spot, punch it/drill a pilot hole, and then drill the big hole...
not try to 'guess' like i did...
u using wrong drill bits curtis, drill a smal hole first den use o-rings
I don't quite follow. ru talking about washers?
thats the word
LOL!
no mate, i'm done with exterior.seems like i loss my 'sense' now after 1 year off from playing with car, hahaQuote:

correct me if im wrong but i think its different from the vti/vtil seats, aside from the color and headrest(with hole just like sports),Quote:
yea beige
i think the shoulder and side area of the hybrid is more bulky than the vti/vtil

shipping might be a bit expensive but labor is probably as cheap salt :D (average thai earns like $30aus a week any way)

^^ lol yeah. thats been posted before. but sending ur car there would cost heaps. genuine parts would also cost heaps. that is a full conversion. inside and out (minus the engine, i think).
if u want ur car to "look like" a type r, then u may as well just buy a replica kit. couple of members (eg. hendra and johnnyfd) have gotten replica fd2r kits already and they look quite well.. without the cost of sending their car overseas.
haha thats old as!
nah no problems at all. i've only had the car for 3 weeks soo :SQuote:
