ali_legend Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) Hello people! I've owned this car for a while now just never go around to make a thread on this forum! But here goes! Will be copied from another forum so some parts might not make sense lol Hello people!! I've been on here for a while now and since being a member I have owned Afew cars, my first car on here was a mint VSM facelift Ek4 which I sold to someone on here but can't find them http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/frown.gifAnyway after a month of ownership I got given a UKDM Dc2 off my mum http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/smile.pngAbout 3 months after owning the Dc2 I decided to buy myself a TDO4 Starlet GT-T right little beast it is!About a week after buying the GT I decided to put the Teg for sale and Afew days down the line someone came and took it away! I had always loved my old ek so I decided to search for another. My first preferance was to find a facelift ek4 but I came across a prefacelift one in a really nice colour, anyway here's some piks of my new project http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/smile.pngI think it's Cypress Green Pearl?, completely standard ATM bar an S9B LSD and a pioneer headunit-Right got Afew little bits and bobs and bought some wheels!Facelift rearsOEM rear light seals And paid for some wheels, should get them next week Wednesday http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/biggrin.pngGot bored so went out and did the JDM rear light conversion and also had an induction kit that I fitted http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/smile.png Vtec screams lol a lot louder then my teg was!! Anyway heres some piks....Rear lights Induction kitRight juicy little update.Got some HSD coilovers on yesterday, rate them load! Really comfy (sorry for the shit picture, it was dark by the time we finished)Also my wheels turned up this morning so got one quickly test fitted as I'm busy today.http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/biggrin.png Right its been a while since my last update but due to weather I haven't been able to progress as quickly as I wanted to..Anyway I decided that the ek standard seats were shocking and I used to fall out of them everytime I went round a corner with abit of speed so decided to get some Recaros http://www.civiclife.net/board/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/smile.png Also as it was snowing so I decided to take a few pictures (sorry the car is very dirty lol) Decided to go and split the lights, paint them black and USDM the headlights! Sorry no piks as of yet but ill get some up soon! Anyway the main update is these bits!! Going to collect them from the painters tomorrow - EK9 spoiler/Baseplate - Tilt brackets - Ek9 grill- Side skirts - Smooth front bumper - Smooth rear bumper - Mugen front lip- Ek9 rear lipRight smoothed bumper on, Mugen front/rear lip, Ek9 spoiler and skirts and grill all in cypress green I'll let the piks do the talking (mega pik heavy) --Then decided to go for a little photoshoot Yh slight downside Car wont go onto the driveway anymore LOLRight people been a while so thought I'd update.Started thinking about my exhaust so decided to get a 5zigen midpipe. Makes a really nice difference, car feels alot more responsive. Then decided to get a spoon n1 rep made up it's not on yet but here's a picture - Right got the box on! Ill let the piks do the taking Before During After After fitting I decided to go down to a nice PRIVATELY owned road and give it a little blast http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb396/ali_legend/15F30A41-0D96-4FBC-9130-662C6E6AE13F-12063-000008672A5CBEE6_zpsf60d8ae5.mp4I've never uploaded a video before so no idea of it works lol That's all for now people...decided on getting some new wheels so here they are Right decided to get the wheels on today was stuck between 195/45 and 195/50 but in the end decided I don't want to go any lower and still want to use the car as a daily so 50's it is slight sacrifice but it was needed! Anyway here are some piks- That's all for now mofos! Comments welcome...Right decided to finally fit the Beaks bar I had sitting in the garage for about a month lol and also whilst the weather was noice I decided to give her a wash and hoover!! :thumbs:Well thats all for now people :vtec:Right so I got a dished wheel of Vin locally so decided to fit that also I wasn't really feeling the ek9 spoiler and noticed a spoon carbon spoiler for sale so thought "YOLO" and just bought it lol here's some piks for you..Steering wheel before Steering wheel after Wanted to make sure my SRS light wasn't on as that annoys the hell out of me lolJust a teaser pik of the spoiler ATM lol ill get a proper one once I clean the car on Saturday ready for Mimms!Right not much of an update as I haven't done much lol. Here's a some mimms piks I took and also fitted some fogs Fog fitting New wheels!!!Had to have MAD camber for them to work. LolThe cars going down the track route so you will see many more mods soon! Also I have purchased another set of wheels that are UBER light! Going to collect them on the weekend! Also got caught driving through japfest in my mates boot lolThat's all for now people Right ALOT has gone on since I last update lolI decided the car will be getting tracked regularly so track prep begins! First I purchased another set of rims. Called keiichi tsuchiya (3.8kg)Then bought a CF bonnet Then stripped out the rear Shortly after ripped the A/C out! Bought some vented wings (but I think their for facelift as they don't fit hmmm)Then bought some parts- New brakes Pads HEL braided lines all round Brake stopper Not ALOT left to do now Comments welcome...
