What you don't like about your ek9?


I love the whole car really.

B16B lacked a certain ummmpptth. EK9 + B18CR is a perfect little road car IMO. Love it.
 
The power mirrors work when they feel like it :nono: even after being soaked in wd40 they jus click away and i hav to manual fold them in!!!

mpg isnt much of a concern cos i only drive it on weekends!

I dont think I have ever enjoyed owning a car as much as I enjoy the ek9. would love to own it forever!!
 
only thing i had was the mirrors not folding. dunnow how, but that solved itself basically. now works fine!

in general, i love the 9. great car.

Small stones in wheel well - who knows?

Water in wheel well - more than likely 1 or both of your rear light seals! Or if a fog light has been installed into your rear cluster the indent in the foam seal may be out of line.

Either way at worst you looking at about £11 each from Honda.

What I dont like about my ek9.... the fact I waited 4x months for an authentice EK9 screen to come over from japan and despite staying about 6 wagon lengths behind a waon I STILL go a huge stone kicked up and chipped / cracked the B******.

i love my ek9, i think i drive it too much though, it has 166,000 kilometers on it and i drive it every day. one day im goin to have to sell it and it will have loads o miles on it and i wont get it sold, but im always spending money on it keeping it up to service and looking fresh.
 
I HATE my Car on the Road...Everything about it, Stiffness, harshness, loudness, uncomfrotableness...

But on the track i ****ING LOVE IT
