My name is Adam and i drive a Civic >.<

[mastro_1988]

Hey guys, my name's Adam, I got an EK VTI-R with a few things done to it. It's got a Simota intake, a Spoon exhaust tip, front lip, Skunk2 PRO-S coilovers, Skunk2 dual bend short shifter with Type R gear knob, Skunk2 lower arm bar and Spoon carbon fibre spoiler.

Also, I know this isnt the right area to be asking this question on, but while I've got you here, I was wondering how much a set of Spoon SW388's go for, in 16's?

I do have plans for this car some day, just got to get a few things sorted first. And i'll also get some pics of it asap.

Cheers
Adam

Hi Adam, welcome abourd.

reasonable mods so far imo.

What are your future plans.

Clean EK4's are hard to find, post up some pictures.

I'm not too sure about the wheels, but budget anywhere up to 2k, depending on condition? dunno.

[mastro_1988]

yeah sweet, mine are in pretty good condition haha. i just didnt know how rare they were till someone told me o.O

the car is clean-ish, but the person before me didn't tell me about some existing damage on the car, and it was difficult to see in the rain o.O but, thankfully for me, i do have some friends that work in the automotive industry and i can get it repaired fairly cheap.

As for future plans, i would like to get some cams and maybe a manifold and also some headers and a full exhaust. But the only thing I am concerned about is the noise of the car when I do get a full system done. But first off I want to repair the damage, some new tyres basically make it look nice and neat.

Here's some pics of the car:

and i dont know if you can tell in the pics but its purple

[ericl33]

wowzorsss

looks neat, not as nice as a dc2, but as nice as you can get with an EK

lol

no, really, looks good. I love the clean simple look.

Front bumper shouldn't be too hard to fix up.

bowruz would be jelly.

Very nice! And those rotors have print on them wow!

[mastro_1988]

hahaha, the DC2's are nice, but i've always had a thing for hatchbacks.

the front bumper is easy, but there are some scratches on the rear quarter, like its been scraped on a brick wall or something, thats what I'm worried about the most.

i've always liked the look of clean simple cars that do what they're supposed to do. I also have this oil leak coming from the distributor o-ring which is going to be fixed in the coming week.

yeah the rotors have print, i dont think it serves any purpose though... except maybe plugging the company haha

EK9 > DC2R

Stock EK4 looks better than stock DC2 non R

But that's just personal preference

[mastro_1988]

i'd love to get my hands on an ek9... i've only ever seen one, and it was bog stock

[duzy]

Nice car mate, clean and simple. Btw what brake setup you running?

Could do with freshening up those side skirts and front lip.

Woah I don't even like civics too much but this is nice!

[mastro_1988]

as far as i know they're standard calipers with 314mm run stops... which does worry me a little because i dont think i am getting the full potential of them.

i definately want to neaten up the body, any tips on how to get the skits and that looking better?
