  1. Really am in 2 minds about it....i know theres nothing wrong with the D2's but i've got a shinney set of brand new coil overs sat here, i know people rave about D"'s for Starlets but the build quality etc of the DGR's looks just as good and the're actually a little lighter. Ill be kicking myself if i sell the DGR's and a year down the line the D2's give up, plus i went through so much stress with the groupbuy and CJ Performance thing that i kind of feel like i should see it through and get them fitted? Any idea what a set of second hand D2's are worth?
  2. So after talking to Pig666eon on here i found out that my 98 spec rear lights were infact 96 backs with 98 lenses chucked on and were basically shit, so managed to bag another set off the Bay nice and cheap so will get them on in the next few days. First time around with an SR i stripped the back of the car out in a bid to fit the rear strut and c-pillar bar but i'll be honest the lack of rear seats and the NOISE started to do my head in so i'v made the effort to get both the rear strut cut in and mount the c-pillar bar with seatbelts. http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3024_zpse67387bc.jpg.html'> The car had 6x9's cut into the parcel shelf and i'm more of a fan of stealth speakers in the back or non at all, so changed the shelf for an OG (un-cut) one. http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3021_zps359b1c46.jpg.html'> As said i wanted to keep as much in the back of this car as possible so knew i'd have to address (Those) back seats at some point....and today was that day! Got to credit my old mum for her sewing skills but this is how far we got today...... http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3039_zpsf73b6bf7.jpg.html'> http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3038_zps4b98ea11.jpg.html'> http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3040_zpse263f6a0.jpg.html'> It has been a monumental mission....but i'm pretty pleased with the results! Next on the list is a civic rad and new wings so a little wait before they'll get bought...........but this did turn up in the post today. http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3028_zpscb2d4cd1.jpg.html'>
  3. Thanks mate....its all gonna be fits and starts as far as progress goes (plus i've got to knuckle down and get the cash put by for the repairs) but watch this space, got a bit done today
  4. Hey Shelly! Yep its got pride of place out the back of ours with a cover on and i'm managing to get bits done in the evenings. Still no developments with the dent as i've been finding other things to spunk money on (car things though ) the cup holders were on the list of things to find so stoked on them!. Plans are moving along so will defo have it out for some shows eventually
  5. Ah ok sweet, i'll go with one of those then
  6. I've been looking at the Tegiwa one? I've got the hoses just need a mounting kit then is that correct....dont want to have to do too much messing about fitting it? If anyone else has any recomendations of kits that would be helpful too
  7. I've now got a 4age lump sat in the bay of an SR and because of how far out the manifold sits it only leaves room for the stock rad, or as many of you have done when making space in your bays.....fit a civic rad! But my questions are: Can it be any old civic rad or am I looking for a specific model? And is the fitment just a case of buying a mounting kit and messing about with the pipe work a bit? Ta
  8. Paul have you reinforced that bumper at all, thinking of cutting out some slats at the front end of mine but a bit worried about it flapping about though?
  9. Pretty sure it was Demontweeks Direct £66.79 all in....the one from eBay just didn't fill me with confidence, I ran it for a couple months but yea it was pretty poor build quality!
  10. That's a good price too.....well sniffed out Socks! GLWS
  11. Yes they are dicks.
  12. Ask Morgey......he's your man when it comes to all that jazz!
  13. I ended up getting a momo one for a GT (they fit ep91's too) leaves a little gap round the steering cowel but its way better than the shit piece I got off eBay!
  14. Here^^
  15. Ohhhhh! And a castle
  16. Hahaha
  17. Someone buy this FFS!!!!!! GLWS mate
  18. Absolutely nothing mate....really not sure what to do. Keep the D2's on and flog the DGR's or swap them over so I've got a brand new coilies on and then should get good money for a second hand set of D2's? Any thoughts?
  19. Thanks Phil mate, really need to knuckle down and stop buying bits so I can get the bodywork sorted......but a Tom's flywheel has just appeared on my radar, so........lol!
  20. They'll be up for sale in the not too distant future mate!
  21. Ok so no photo's for you yet Morgey but i have been busy between beach missions........Couple of bits turned up in the post so cracked on with fitting them. http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3008_zps51dd60f0.jpg.html'> Picked up a Momo boss after trying out a shit piece one off ebay (really poor build quality) and got the Momo "race" steering wheel banged on along with a TRD dial surround. The carbon horn button was a bitch to get hold of and i waited for months for it to ship! http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3016_zpsc750c5ef.jpg.html'> http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3018_zpse8673e2a.jpg.html'> Had a bit of daylight left so got a bit carried away and fitted one of the rear DGR coilovers (got these in an "infamous" group buy.....that well and truly put me off group buys ) went pretty well but im expecting more issues with the fronts! http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3010_zps1b8f1b4b.jpg.html'> http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/Joeflynns/media/DSCF3013_zps16095e45.jpg.html'>

    Uksc

    So does this mean old build threads lost in the move over will be viewable or is it just the main structure of uksc that's been found? Sorry if this is a shit question.....bit of a computer retard
  23. Jesus........ Thanks again mate
  24. Its litrally a cu*t to get to and im doing it by feel alone....it clicked but im guessing your rite. Dont spose theres a nack that i haven't figured out to get to it? Cheers for the reply
  25. I changed the dial surround in my SR for a carbon effect TRD one and in doing so had to remove the clocks (3 connectors at the back) but when i put everything back together i discovered that temp and revs both worked fine but my speedo's stopped working! Pulled it all off again and found a plug that looks a bit like an oversized (male) aerial socket.....and then noticed a likely spot on the back of the clocks for it. Getting to it with the clocks in place was an absolute mission because it was so short, but i got it on from up and under the dash. Anyway that didn't solve it either and the only thing that i may have moved is like a small clear plastic bar on a pivot (on rear of clocks) but cant suss out what that does? Any help would be amazing?
