  1. white - will come from the side lights - if you have a switch for your rear fog you can take the supply from the 12v feed, as it only works when the sidelights/headlights are on.

    black - any metallic non painted surface, you will see earths dotted around behind your dash!

    orange - permanent 12v supply - like said above, cigarette lighter, or any constant 12v, and use a voltmeter or multimeter to find the correct wires

  2. braided lines are a good mod, not terribly expensive either. I've used the HEL lines and thought they were excellent for the money! Plus come in a range of cool colours!

    I bought a set of EBC yellowstuff pads and to be honest i am not impressed (in comparison to the ferrodos)! Although cold bite is fairly good! I'm running them with project mu discs and they are not near as good as i expected. I ran DS2500 pads on my ep82 and they were outstanding, next set of pads i will be going back to the ferrodo's!

    I have a friend who runs a supercharged EP3 civic type r, he had an EBC grooved disc and yellow stuff setup, he managed to crack two sets of discs while on knockhill (seperate occasions obv)

    Also i'm sure i've read somewhere that grooved and drilled discs dont really do much, Spoon sports brake upgrade is a plain non grooved or drilled disc! Must be reason in there!

  3. I'd say hold out for an SR. I was looking for one when i was 18 and they were around the 3k mark, i ended up going for an ep82 GT. Now i am looking for an SR again and they are going for as little as 1k! There was a mint 63k miles 2 owners FSH silver one on ebay that sold for £1100 last week! Just a case of holding out for the right car!

  4. rubix - i got the ek9 as a fresh import from fastjapcars.com, they are spot on for getting ek9's!

    i love the whole speed thing about the 200sx but nothing i have ever driven can corner like the ek9! i can see myself going back to honda at some point but it'll be track only! lol Although i wouldnt say no to another sx, maybe a nice 180sx!

    The recaros are awesome, superb hold, although the bolsters dont hold up too well if your not super skinny! you can pick them up for good money now though!

  5. yeah i'm good mates with the two lads who work at dewars and some of the clanjapan staff! My s14 was there, parked next to a sliver 33GTR on the clanjapan stand.

    She is provisionally sold but if it falls through, i'll get a thread up! heres a couple of pics

  6. Hi all, thought i'd post a hello! I'm looking into getting myself a little SR. I've owned an ep82 back when i was 18, then bought an ek9, and currently driving a stage 2 s14a 200sx. Which is for sale! Taking a break from fast cars for a bit. So since i'm planning on going back to starlet power thought i'd join up!
