***Official What did you do to your EK today***

[tsol0811]

the paint doesnt look that bad, really really uplifts once you buff it.

your car should be sex and very SIR style once you lower it.
loving your OEMness. keep it up. i prefure OEM then replica parts.

[UkuleleGod]

Thanks man, thats the style I am going for.

I just want it to look like it came from the factory, but with a few nice extras.
All of my parts are OEM so far.

My next mod is installing power windows :P

[tsol0811]

ahh, power windows are so much comfy,
i think you should if your willing, to get ek4 sway bars and other oem suspension parts with lowered spoon springs?
will be good handling

[UkuleleGod]

That would be pretty nice.

To go from not having any bars on the EK1 to the EK4 bars, will I have to change LCA's or anything?

[mugen_ctr]

nah man, though front sway bars are different story, rears are fine, from ek4>ek1

[tsol0811]

i think CXI's may need changing of LCA's

[UkuleleGod]

I see. I guess I will just have to search around here for a guide on swaybars or something when I have more time.

Lowering is definitely on the cards through, looks heaps meaner (obviously not this low, haha):



I little bit of photoshoppping never hurt anybody :P

[tsol0811]

LOL thats not low this is.
sorry i used ur pic and photochopped

[UkuleleGod]

Man, I can already tell this is going to cost moneys But it looks badass.

Possibly after lowering a change of wheels could be in order. Its currently rocking out 14s.

[tsol0811]

you can always rock oem EM1 rims or BLADES. OEM goodness.
lowering only = $200-400 if u do the cheap springs or 1k for coils.

[UkuleleGod]

I was actually looking at the blades recently, but decided just to get new rubbers for my current ones. I believe the ones I have are from a VTI Coupe. I'm pretty happy with the RE001's on them.

I think for my usage, nice springs and shocks would be the go. I want a comfortable daily, not a track car :P

[1996_EK_Civic]

i finally put my JL Audio 6*9's in this morning, my car is still half apart, but man do they sound great!
