New proud owner of EF9

[aznpsuazn]

Greetings yo. I just bought this car yesterday. Needs a bit of body work and a new clutch but besides that, the car is beaut'! How many of these are there on these forums?

[mr_vtec]

nice anything done to it.. you got any more pics... btw congrats love themm

[aznpsuazn]

no nothing has been done to it yet. it still needs a fair bit of work to get it running the way i want it to. Its sitting on some yellow springs that are just too low for it. Its scraping pretty much over anything. Does anyone have any idea what sort of springs these could be?

no nothing has been done to it yet.

Looks like its got an after market muffler, rims and springs.

well from the time that i bought it yesterday till now i haven't done anything. but previously yes it has been 'modified' quite poorly though. has no ground clearance at all.

welcome.. what state are you in?

[aaronng]

Very nice. Remember to change all the fluids too.

[aznpsuazn]

all the fluids as in greabox and engine oil? radiator....?

[EuroDude]

It depends on the service history.

If you have no history then I would start fresh and change:
Engine oil (Honda Oil is good, or maybe Mobil Synth-S which is great in my 250,000km engine)
Transmission oil (use Honda MTF)
Coolant replacement
Brake and clutch fluid replacement (only use Honda fluid)
Air Filter
Fuel Filter
Oil Filter
Tappet adjustment
Throttle Body clean
IACV and FITV clean
New spark plugs
Check Spark plug cable resistance
Check/replace Dizzy cap (cheap)

If u do it all urself it may cost around $200 (excluding tools)
The car will run heaps smoother after all that
