Hi all,
I'm a little bit late on this as I've already made a few posts elsewhere, but hey ho!
Just like to say an official Hello and introduce myself.-
I recently bought a C's supercharged EK9 from a former member called Ant, think his user name was Antsek9? Anyway, I'm loving being back in the seat of a Honda, was away from them for about a year and missed them so much i had to come back, and that was after owning such cars as a Scooby Sti Type R coupe, and M3 Evo, and a chipped up Audi S3, but they just seemed boring!, bar the Scooby really cos I must admit I did have some fun in that, but I really missed the high revving nuttiness and noise of a vtec and wanted to come back in a pretty big way, so what better Honda than an EK9?? and a supercharged one at that!
I'm a massive Honda fan, owning a string of Honda's such as a Vortech supercharged crx delsol (which i built from scratch, spent £16k on it and had a 7 page feature in J Tuner magazine) UK DC2, EG6 SiR2, Civic Jordan (Spoon spec'd up engine and fully carbon'd) and a well sorted EK4 SiR which was also very well know within the civic community.
The spec on my 9 is currently as follows:-
Engine:
- C's Compressor
- HKS Jasma 4-1 manifold
- HKS catback exhaust
- DC Sports de-cat pipe
- Skunk2 Stainless steel valves
- 440cc injectors
- Walbro uprated fuel pump
- Inline pro uprated headgasket
- T.M Works uprated HT leads with built in earth straps
- Direct coil ignition pack
- Full earthing kit
- AEM 3 bar wideband map sensor
- Yashio Factory radiator with 1.3 bar cap
Management:
- DTA fast S40 standalone management, currently mapped by Henry AKA 'The Kat' (NOt happy with the currently state of tune so getting it re-mapped by the man Mase himself next week.
Chassis:
- Tein Super Street coilovers
- Aftermarket front upper strut brace
- OEM 15" wheels with Yoko Parada spec 2's
Brakes:
- NSX calipers up front
- Discs look to be Spoon grooved (possibly)
Interior:
- Car was imported with a blue Sparco bucket seat on drivers side but now has a pair of MINT red recaro's
- C's short shifter with extendable arm
- Razo gearknob removed for mint OEM titanium gearknob
- AEM Wideband A/F ratio gauge on steering column
- Mint OEM mats
- 300mm Momo Race steering wheel
Exterior:
- Litetuned Carbon fibre bonnet
- Genuine Spoon carbon fibre rear spoiler
- Wind deflectors (to be fitted)
- Number plate tilt bracket (to be fitted)
I will get some pics up of it very soon, extremely busy at the mo. I will also start up a build up thread as I have a lot of plans for the car so look out for that!
Thanks for looking!
