Just wondering do any of you lot know where to get an Option2 decal to go on the dash as i want one on my CRX. Ive searched high and low but cant find any good ones. Cheers, Rhys

I have an RX7 tmic on my GT...............ive also got custom brackets that make it sit perffectly square like the stock tmic Rubix yours is sitting at an angle isnt it mate? Let me know i may be able to duplicate the brackets if you want it sitting square? And their very good, theres alot thicker core and bigger surface area........as said.....good for 170bhp but if your going 200+ just buy FMIC. If anyone wants me to make them up brackets let me know and ill get to work on the sheet aluminium.

Do you know Sham and Tahir their from up your way Idrees? Tahir has an EF9 civic i think.......B18CR VERY quick. Still.........D series all the way! for now any way. It shall be rapid with the HKS cams as their epic duration. .....then bodies!!! Havent heard the sound and the smell of fuel since i had my throttle bodied 106 rallye been too long now. Deafness and headaches again here we come!

K20's have been done in them. Upon recent reasearch......basically....B20's are sh*t, and they sound sh*t. Weak engine if you dont build them properly. Their good if built properly. B16.....bah cant be arsed to spend £300-£400 on a B series. Wasteof time and money for not alot more power than my D16A9 lump. B18.....thought about it.......and then decided VTEC isnt all that amazing really, a good D series can keep up with the best all day long. ............ My D series is staying in there. Buying a set of HKS race cams to go in it. Then some throttle bodies probably, been

Very nice mate. Was nice meeting you. Told you they would look good in there didnt i..... ;) its somthing a bit different thats for sure. Get yourself some glanza door cards or somthing mate. If theres anything i can help you with just give me a shout and ill see what i can do for you!

*slaps hand to forhead*....doh......thats it.....were fooked. lol. Nah im sure you' be good to it and wont rag it at all will you lew! ;)

Lmao hell no..........id sooner commit hari-kari(sp?) than do that to my GT! ;) Correct mate, good guess! ;) BIG project, which will not be easy, custom parts all over the place, mounts, mani's, looms......the list is endless. Will be worth it in the end, but as said dont expect it for many years yet.......looking at minimum of 2-3 years in the making.

Very nice, in my opinion the spoiler suits it, they look silly without one i think, the shape is all wrong without it. What is it with dads and nice cars? My dads a bloody bum compared lmao! Ill ave to kick him in the ass for it!

Well its called magic!.......and a fookin big hill and an almighty crunch and a bang.......i thought the f*cking world was ending when it was grinding and then finally went bang. If im honest, no offence to the guy i bought it off but it hadnt been looked after before i had it, im guessing most of its life it had been run with no gearbox oil (serious! ;)) i obviously put gearbox oil in it, but im guessing by then it had had a hiding. Shes coming off the road, will be off for years though for the big project..........500bhp 1.8 20v here we come!! And the monumental task of putting the power

Lmfao you tell him Jade! Lew, hurry up with pics i wanna see this beast!! ;) and you know you want my sooperdooper OEM wheels you said looked like yaris wheels to go on it!!! Toyo's and all mind! lol Glad you finally got your starlet then jade., do me a favour though, please for godsake dont let lew drive it, we'll all be doomed! lol ;)

Nah probably B18/B20 mate, B20 bottom end with the B18CR cylinder head...etc I would LOVE to K20 it, but damn their worth silly money those engines...... If i find some old man whos got a damaged civic type r sitting on their driveway then ill make them an offer for their engine ;)

Update 2 - 20th July Ok been working a little on the CRX, as said removed the back lights the other day and resealed them all up, left the left side light off as im getting a new one. Center panel and right light refurbd and reffited.... Been making some carbon fibre interior bits today, nothing major just little bits and peices for now. In very nice snazy green 2x2 weeve, which was hard as fook to find. Had to cut and shape them all properly so they fit spot on and hold themselves in without glue or screws, perfect job. (if anyone wants any small bits like this made for their cars, drop me

Update 1 - 17 July Started some of the restoration work today, removed everything from the rear tyre well, checked for rust, minimal, very very impressed. Removed the rear lights to restore them, change any blown/damaged/faded bulbs and restore the rubber seals that sit behind them. Their a VERY strange light setup, infact its a f*cking silly design which is notorious for leaking, which mine had done in the past slightly by the looks, easy temporary fix which lasts along time, i removed them, soaked the seals and scrubbed them in warm/hot water to get all the gunk off them and relax the rub

Just wondering wheres best to get door and boot seals that seal VERY well by the meter or in universal kits? Looking at replacing all the seals in the GT and on my CRX as both cars leak from time to time and i dont like it all that much i must admitt. Would be great if i can buy it by the meter or somthing? Cheers, Rhys.

Just stick to the basic common sense rules when buying a used second hand car mate. Check the oil, fluids...etc Check all service history and when last service was done, make sure its had at least oil and oil filter change..etc..etc. Do a HPI check, avoid anything which has had a knock as their tough cars but not THAT tough if you see what i mean, a bump could mean structural damage, so always nice to have one which has no accident damage. Their a very tough car, engine's are very tough and reliable. In my opinion, it is best to go for somthing which hasnt already been modified (unless new i

Well i was told they wernt, most of them dont get me wrong are UK cars, but they were in Europe, bought by people in the forces and what not. I may be wrong though mate. All the same, their very rare.

Cheers Luke matey, i appreciate it!

Heres one of my ALL TIME FAVORITES.........everyone should listen to this if you wanna smile . Ive also got almost all of Armin Van Buuren's mixes on CD off the radio shows hes done. F*cking immense tune. Gives me an amazing feeling listening to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91eZZqnH7kM Super 8 & Tab ft. Alyna - Delusion (remix)

Haha same here mate, ive got 2 cars i never thought i would get to own only in my dreams lol........GT and CRX. Im VERY lucky. Thanks for the kind comment dude!

Hi there Scott Depends on how much you want to spend mate? IF you dont wanna go mega-bucks then there are the ebay jobbies......ok but at the end of the day you get what you pay for. As far as i know i think Zisco make some immense ones for £300+, obviously outstanding quality reflects in the price. http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index...._item&id=41 And i think Dave Burwash was making them......T-M developments on here as far as im aware have them. Scout around mate theres quite a fair few de-cats and manifolds available to fit the CT9, all with different power figures, r

Dunno if this is any use mate.............only had a quick browse for you...... http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?pli...s_Brakes-_discs Thats assuming its just the discs you wanted, or was it actual calipers or pads?

Aup Dan mate. I dont see why it shouldnt be? Works for civic's and CRX's fine so i dont see why it wouldnt work for a GT/Glanza V either, unless your going to run silly power, then obviously the bigger the core the more the fins and the more area of cooling you get, i personaly would opt for a full size rad every time because of the bigger cooling area, but thats just me playing it safe, theres many people running civic rads OK as far as i know. Rhys.

..........oh dear, thats no excuse dammit!!! And seriously its funny, if i concentrate on saving, its amazing how much i do manage to save from, well, no where really and after a few months have enough money to do things with the cars, its gunna be a slow old process of building the GT and buying a few parts here and there for this, but itll be worth all the work and effort in the end........and you know me i eat, sleep and drink cars......keeps a smile on my face lol. And better wether you say mate? Haha, in wales? You'll be waiting for ever......lmao. As said though, whenever you do star

Cheers mukka for the kind words, i appreciate it. Its in VERY good condition, its a far cry from the white one i went to look at the other day.......dear god......the guy wanted more for it than what i paid for this, and to be fair, i wouldnt have been happy to drive it 100 yards down the road, what a death trap. I had a very very good buy and a lucky find for £700, had been garaged as well 90% of its life, and the underside is fully waxoiled from new. Performance and handling wise........my GT feels like a boat compared, very tight steering, corners amazingly well, grip all over t

Haha ok ok you've caught me..........ive been selling my body down cardiff docks, red handbag the lot LMFAO ;) Im lucky, i dont drink and i hardly go out and for some reason i seem to find money that ive hidden away in dark corners, seems to grow out of my wallet. lol And not yaris wheels...............EVEN WORSE..... blooody Daihatsu wheels haha. They've got Toyo T1R's on them though, crazy people. Lew give us a shout as well mate, ill come up and help you with your GT......any time, you've still got my number havent you?
