said id throw up a thread on this as im new to the forum
heres a few pics of when i got the car back in november 2011
first thing i did was swap the gearboxs over from my ek9 to the eg6, the ek9 had a 98 spec S80 wit 96 spec 4th and 5th, the eg6 gearbox was a 96 spec s80, also got a teg r gear linkage an fitted it too, car feels 100 times nicer wit the new box an linkage, i was already trying to sell the ek9 a few weeks at this stage so i swapped the gearboxes and dropped the price of the ek9, its now sold to a lad in wexford,
cheeky pic before we started!
started collectin few bits for d car then to make er me own, got 50/50 rear lights an a set of jap pressed plates,
only pic i hav of them on d car, :facepalm:
went off an got a set of 96 spec teg drives as mine were knockin, got a set of teg r anti roll bars to try an make the handlin of the eg a bit better, an also got a tegiwa half rad,
went off then an picked this up on xmas eve, a small present from me to myself! :vtec:
K20 :twisted:
engine is out of a DC5
finally started the build :bananna:
started stripping the car, an took out the engine an box and all hubs as im goin for a 5 stud conversion, heres the only pic i hav of the car wid engine out,
picked up the 5 stud conversion
and my new wheels arrived yesterday, buddyclub P1's :hi:
il be undersealing the car later tonight an should be collecting a polly bushing kit,
was out at the car again an got a good bit done, stripped down the whole shell to underseal it an put in the polly bush kit i picked up today, was very happy with the condition off the shell, no major rust problems thank fuk!! :hi: few pics of how the car stands now,
hav been collectin a few parts for the build the last couple of weeks i said id throw em up,
new RSM
picked up a set of ksport coilovers and D2 lower control arms
energy suspension polybushin kit
heres a quick pic of the bay cleaned up,
the car as it stands now is fully undersealed and hav all the pollybushing done, im waiting on my new drilled and grooved discs and my wheels to come bak from powder coating before i can hav a rolling shell again, Then the engine can start to be fitted, :hi:
got the undersealing finished on the car an its dry!
bolted bak in the polybushed subframe put on the hubs and put in the coilovers!
collected the wheels, delighted how they came out, still havta put in the center caps an order the P1 Racing stickers an theyll be done!
my new discs arrived today aswell!
more parts! :hi:
So anyway, heres a pic of the recaro's there actually wat I call MINT!! :bananna:
also got these, black housing headlights and amber corners, also in very good condition,
only 1 or 2 bits left to get for the car aside from all the conversion parts which will be ordered shortly,
Another update!
Got these parts out of honda on friday, few clips an small bits that were needed, got 16 brand new chrome wheel nuts an a set of honda lock nuts, i would recomend anyone getting lock nuts to pay the bit extra an get the honda ones, each set are unique an if you loose the nut u can get a replacement out of honda,
