New Car - Civic EM2 Coupe

Haters, you old fudgery

[Chip Pan Dan]

its been one of those days to day. cleaned the car as it hasnt been done in ages. parked up came back about half an hour or so later. and a cat had been all over it, with muddy paws! that ****ed me off more than hitting the post at the shop today and wreaking my boot lid and rear lights.
gutted, but it could of been worse.









not too bad the passenger light, just cracked



last week i had a trip to Birmingham to a guy who was breaking one of these with a few goodies on it. so i came home with a splitter and rear window spoiler witch i love!

[TurboDan]

Cant believe youve ruined the only panel on your car that had no dents in it!
How the hell did you manage to crash it lol

It must have been one hell of a post you hit, where was the shop?

[gsi pie]

spoiler looks good

sorry to here about the post

[btcctroy]

Love that rear spoiler. Your have to fit your car with reversing sensors

[Chip Pan Dan]

going to invest in one of those rear view cameras you can get to work with the double din, same as what dan had in his scooby.

[Chip Pan Dan]

Started painting the k20, its got a couple of coats of sliver on. May go over it one more time depending how it looks when its dry.
Just need to make a start on the gearbox

[gsi pie]

looking good

I just started stripping my rocker cover on my b18 to redo it wrinkle red

Sweet, post some pics up when it's done. I need to get mine done soon

[btcctroy]

Looks a tidy engine. When's it going in

[Chip Pan Dan]

Still need to buy some bits so once ive got those I can crack on

[Chip Pan Dan]

since the engine has been painted i've started painting a few other bits.
i took the epas off the ep3 so i've cleaned it and started painting that.

still needs another coat but it looks much better!

[gsi pie]

I reckon you sell me the 3 spokes

[Chip Pan Dan]

no chance haha

found some rear lights i liked, had them for a few weeks now, only got round to trial fitting one just now.
must say i really like them, glad i bought them

[Chip Pan Dan]

put one of the rear 5 stud hubs on today, first side was a really easy, the other side has put up a fight. think one of the bolts is seized. even an impack gun couldnt budge it. so i will try some heat next time and go from there.

the advans sit out a bit too, not surprised really. but nothing a bit of camber can sort.

[gsi pie]

sell to me !! problem solved

looks good tho dan

[planetc]

Are you sure it isn't a left handed thread Dan?

[Chip Pan Dan]

Are you sure it isn't a left handed thread Dan?

yeah tried both ways. the bolt didnt budge with the gun but with the breaker bar you could see it move along with the bush. shame as it was that one bolt stopping me putting the other hub on

[btcctroy]

My impact would get that undone.

[Chip Pan Dan]

When you next going dans? Lol

[btcctroy]

Not anytime soon I don't think pal

[Chip Pan Dan]

ordered some bits last week that have now arrived

rear view camera for the double din, black sun strip and i won a lightened fly wheel from an facelift ep3 for £36 delivered!

[Chip Pan Dan]

after a day in the garage, the result is the engine and subframe have been removed.
i was considering using the ep3 subframe witch i kept, but when i removed my subframe i noticed its much lighter than the ep3 frame. so i will just get the original frame tided up.

next job is to tidy the garage and remove the steering rack, ecu, aircon unit, tidy/ clean the bay ect ect...

[humbucker]

Nice work Dan.

[Chip Pan Dan]

cheers dan, haha

got a few jobs done today. removed the aircon pipes and unit from under the dash. didnt need to removed the dash to get it out too, witch was a huge help.
took my steering rack off and started stone chipping the front end.

going to get my powder coating together and take that down to be done asap

so much room for activities now:
