damn... i swear its in one of these topics ey! sighh
so hard to win an argument with sr20 heads
cos
1. it's a honda
2. it's FWD
3. it's only a civic
but it's the honda civic FWD that could!
YES I FOUND IT.......

even tho its not a civic, these 2 cars were about the same age.
jdm s15 = 184kW
adm s15 = 147kW
Though with 3" exhaust and pod, my adm s15 dynoed 164rwkw without MBC.
Stock exhaust on s15 is <2"
Sorry have to jump in as an SR20 boy.... would trade for the FD2R though :)

i was like...o crap but im like 5 mins from home. o well and drive slow.
travelling at like 40 in a 50 zone..entering a runabout, the brake is a bit funny and wasnt as responsive as it was so i dig in deeper and the wheels locked up..
skidded to the pole that has the run about signage!
so annoying!that i dont have car now!
the damage isnt too bad from the looks of it
just headlight, front bumper and mugen kit and grille, headlight support bar and a/c hose
damn tat suxz
time for a whole new front makeover
wtf? you're ok right?
man... that's still a lot of dmg though.
are you gonna pay for it or will the mechanic cover it?
nah he's relying on my payment for his spark raizin to pay it all off LOL. jks jks, but yeh bl tim =[ - altho - more reason to get RR front? =D.
that suxxxxxx man i hope the mechanic covers it
maybe save it till the next time when everyone is ready?
ill come up for the next meet anyhow :) that way its not rushed lah :P
ouch @ story..
think of the bright side, jdm front end conversion :thumbsup:
Hey guys ive lost my modding mojo for a while, but now back with the mod bug :wave:
Going to be purchasing a J's racing exhaust ss soon and also looking into getting a injen cai. Is it worth it to get the hydroshield? I know once your car is submerged in water the hydrosheild can't stop anything but will small puddles effect the engine much?
Im thinking after that dreadful storm of all storm days we had in melbourne a few weeks ago, it would scare alot of people with CAI's! Just want to be on the safer side is all.
im just leaving it up to AAMI to sort it out!
will keep you guys posted
LOL get anything to protect yourself from hydrolock... my cars written off because of it. quoted $13000+ to get it fixedQuote:

LOL its Roundabout hahahaQuote:

this water repelling liquid that u put on ur windshield.. just wondering if it actually works.
wtf 13k! repair, that's a lie... a brand new R18 would probs cost u $10k at max, and then 3k for labour,w tf!
Tim, possible that if they did anywork on the hub or wheel bearing that they flipped it and pushed it in back to front. The Abs sensor on our cars is on one side of the wheel bearing which reads off the sensor.Quote:

On another note, if you ever get a abs light it means that the car isnt losing ABS on that one corner so make sure you get it sorted asap or drive at like 1km/h
Curtis - didnt someone get a complete long block off honda for 2050$? IIRC it would be somewhere back in 2006.
i have a photo of my bent piston lol (made a continuous clicking sound, which we found out later was becos of a bent piston)Quote:

pics. of your rear strut please.
nighthawk black is black with a hint of blue :p
only pics of rear strut were taken with my iphone.. at night =.=.... so yeah might be hard to see properly lol: - if u need better, proper pictures of it across the whole boot then ill take some tomorrow =].
http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/2496/bootw.jpg
PS - i kinda wish my car was blue... fd2r blue...!
WTF. looks like a disco in ur boot
Wow, that looks stunning!Quote:

ps. rk's car looks like this now :P
my car is the satalight mist. the champagne gold. so its different to rk's
im just surprised the bonnet/bumper/lip reflected so much light on a 10 second shutter speed.
take a pic of my car with that camera!! lol
yeah i will when i figure the camera out more and get my rims on. tires are on order :)
i do....not much difference.. it would only make your wiper blade slide more smooter...just regularly clean your windshield using a wet old newspaper.....then dry it up with a newspaper as well..Quote:
Anyone here use Rain-x on their car?
ekdez....nice rims btw...nice shot too..
dez, looking good bro :)
yea rK,
i just let the insurance deal with it all.
dez, ur car is hot!
and ryan, ur boot does look like disco!
hahha eh.. happens when ur bored at home with left over LEDs =P
lol man i wanna do that too!
Is it difficult? or does it plug directly into the existing trunk light?
keep an eye out for me ;)
i hope syd roads arent a bitch to drive on.
syd roads r fkn gay LOL =[, gl dez haha. too bad i wont see u around today only staying local =[....... uni exams ftl..
and curtis: its really easy, jus splice ur LED wires into the wires of the boot light socket (tuck them in into the hole - you'll get what i mean), but be careful cos u will most likely blow a fuse if u test the wrong pos/neg combination lol - well at least i did =[.
if u need ne more help ill take some pics for u lol.
dez... where you gonna be around?
could drop by and say hi :)
wasn't so bad. some pretty gay turns tho where i had to take it very slow :|
Not as exciting as what you guys have been getting...
SPC front Camber bolts + Ingalls Rear Camber Adjusters.
http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/e...c/IMG_2344.jpg
LOL you know what, ive been meaning to get a set of those for a while now, just keep putting it off
yeah... well that whole set was cheaper than a pair of skunk2 rear camber arms although I had to source them seperately, so wait no more and get buying!!!
evolution can you please tell me if that camber kit even works. cos the skunk 2 one doesn't really allow me to dial in a negative camber.
p.s. my new interior shots.

pshhh i wish.
whoa, LHD conversion?
note the "pshhh i wish"
ill post up my interior shots soon :) installing those seats atm
p.s. ive been look at this more and more and more and more...
http://www.procivic.com/pages-produc...963/index.html
haha gl with the airbag light dez
As in you have got massive -ve camber and want to make it more positive?? Cos I'm going the other way and trying to get a bit more -ve camber. The ingalls set is supposed to be adjustable by -1.5 to +5Quote:

How sure are u of that?
willing to test that out? lol
thats wat i heard from clubrsx too, front ones will still deploy ...but thats for rsx thoughQuote:

the honda that i go to are normally nice to me, but i dont think they'd appreciate me rocking up with a fully modified car LOL
and asking them to fix my air bag problem. lol maybe next service illl ask, cos its in 2000kms
