  1. The silver is the rear though, i think a koni yellow might be worth a shot if someone has a picture of one that would be useful!
  2. Yea i see what you mean, well going by that yes the top mount will be the problem, the other thing is the sleeve has a lot of support on the honda shocks ie it sits over about 4" of metal so it cant lever over/kink as much where as if doesnt seem to have as much area to sit over on out ep shocks. Which may mean they have a tendency to kink over if you no what i mean?
  3. The stock front shocks are iirc about a 4" spring right? If not then they may fit ok. But by my thinking/experience The coilover sleeves use around a 2" spring and the threaded part of the sleave also needs to sit in the right place, honda shocks have the cup that they sit in quite tightly against them so cant move too much, then there is also the issuse with the spring seating against the top mount. Not saying i wont work just it would need some careful consideration ;)
  4. But no spoiler? Looks weird without 1 but indeed ubs rare stickers!
  5. Oh how i dont envy you! First time round the headaches we had doing mine, and their wasnt an easy answer with it either. It took time, lots of beeping our with the multi meter and home made wiring diagrams cross referencing with engine looms from both cars and haynes manuals. Was an epic ball ache lol
  6. You couldnt do it with a standard front shock but an aftermarket one could be do able. Most aftermarket shock spring combo's use that ^^^ standard sized spring (meisters bc d2) all do so if koni yellows do then a shock like that with these might work. Then you would also need the right length spring and spring rate to suit. Do able for sure, ball ache... Most likely lol
  7. Yeah i thought that, the lad who had the conversion done was on here.
  8. Repost lol
  9. Never heard of the place so dont know how the timing works there, Tbh first time i went i didnt bother lowering mine but when i did i got my 60ft down .4 of a sec and that was around 20psi. But others may say different. erm Revs is one of those things that you will have to find out for yourself, it will change due to almost anything! I found lower down ie 3-3.5k was better as you got the traction but you may find yourself bogging down. Im also in a hi revving n/a and not got the surge of torque for the turbo spooling up. Try holding your car on the handbrake on the biting point of the clutch to build the boost up aswel should help abit (i say without experience) Like said befor just try it out find out what the conditions are like and have fun every1's gotta start somewhere
  10. If its pod, your time doesnt start until you move so try ignore the lights once theyve gone green and think about getting a nice smooth get away. Then general stuff Let your front tires down to about 20-ish psi Pump the rears up a couple If you can raise and/or stiffen the rear up a tad Or if you just want a bench mark time run it how you would on the road then next time, do everything else, that way you can see the difference it can make! And most importantly enjoy yourself
  11. I think theres 3 temp sensors on them one for fan switch 1 for ecu and one for clocks.
  12. Try this link its £3200!! />http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=261124221617&index=21&nav=SEARCH&nid=76356458453 Also anyone notice the cusco carbon strut brace ending soon with £100 p + p....
  13. ^^^ daaaym thats phat as hell lol i would swap my car in an instant for that if it was repping a 4age!
  14. First post updated, having a bit of a slow grow it seems but hey ho its getting there!!
  15. I wasnt there but from the sounds of it.... E-hand raised!!
  16. The mount should be mated up against the gearbox, why they have put the washers between the mount and the box is beyond me! Surely if you needed the washer they'd go under the head of the bolt as to not change the position of the engine?
  17. yea its quite old, but first time I've seen it. some1 was winding my mate up with it lol
  18. just seen this on bookface, might be a repost not sure! />http://youtu.be/ljPFZrRD3J8
  19. Welcome along, car looks clean ;)
  20. I havnt seen this but i hate Mp's just for the fact they never have an direct answer for anything. You ask them a simple yes or no question an they go off on a 10 minute ramble of crap!! I think it was a jeremy paxman* interveiw a few years back was a prime example of it! Bunch of C*nts the majority of them viva Guy Fawkes!!! Lol Said interveiw, bit off topic but you can see what i mean />http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1KHMO14KuJk

  22. Reminds me of a mk1/2 escort! I like
  23. Tea water stir brew squeeze bag out, sugar in stir, milk in stir. Then the most important bit.... Sit back and enjoy ;)
