New Car - Civic EM2 Coupe

Post by Chip Pan Dan »

was bored with the diesel and this came up cheep not to far away...

bought this a few weeks back, got it cheep because it had not tax or test and the head was on its way out apparently.


just been to my mates where the car is living till its got an mot, since its been there he's changed the alternator and power steering belts and flushed the coolant.
I was up there today so put my intake on, de badged the rear and put the new plates on.
also bought some coilovers they wont be on for a bit though.
car will be in for an mot on monday, so fingers crossed all goes well.

I like the look of the jap motors when done as a track day car.

Should be interesting, must admit the Jap cars are good value and hold their money as well
Free Parking is a bonus, leaving my Cav in a carbon dust filled carpark is not.....

Nothing that can't be solved with a gypsy cream cap on each coil and a swiss roll in place of the egr valve.
