    My vagen,pretty much factory spec no mods apart from koni coilovers,BBS RC's and a cat back milltek exhaust,R32 steering wheel,R32 clocks and R32 trim.

    Well that was her.......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,689 ✭✭✭Vain


    ah man them wheels are making me drool :D.. Mint car.. Where did you get your milltek exhaust


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,590 ✭✭✭tossy


    The milltek came straight from milltek themselves via AMD technik in essex as milltek don't make them anymore it was a special order put together by a few V6 owners.

    the wheels are filthy in those pics!

    good to see a another vag on this thread we are now outnumbering them!!

    What engine? im guessing either 150 diesel or petrol due to the poxy wood trim (sorry no offence)

    none taken, I'm not a fan of it either! would change it for the r32 stuff but it's pretty expensive and have other things higher up on my priority list!
    Its got nice recaros in it though, which makes the interior nice imo that and the fact that my gauges now light up the same colour blue as the dash.

    Its a petrol, just got the usuals done to it, new filter, and remap to 200bhp.

    Really need to get the RC's. My car is crying out for them. They are the dogs!!!!

    This was the car that started my modified car bug;

    PC040035.jpg

    Then I got bored and went rwd

    R32Left1.jpg

    Then I decided to get all respectable but had a tough time selling the binliner so I took a trade in of this!

    I took a trade in on the civic and got this (which is for sale)

    Ek9 B16b stock details:

    1997-2000 Civic Type R[EK9]
    Displacement: 1595 cc
    Compression: 10.8:1
    Bore: 81mm
    Stroke: 77.4mm
    Rod/Stroke ratio: 1.84:1
    Rod Length: 142.42 mm (5.607")
    Power: 180hp (134 kW) @ 8200 rpm & 115 ft·lbf (155 Nm) @ 7500 rpm
    Redline: 8400 rpm
    Transmission: S4C With LSD
    0-80 High 5's

    VTEC is notoriously difficult to dyno proprly, it can "trick" the dyno a bit the way it works so I wouldn't take one printout as hard evidence, I have heard b16's with upwards of 210 - 220 bhp though but they have lots of work tune including serious re mapping

    I'm actually thinking of mixing and matching... I like the anni front valance (same as yours ;) ), r32 side skirts, and cant decide which exhaust to get... and this will decide my rear valance! (anni or v6 style) so it'll b a mix of all my fav golfs! won't be happening until i start proper work though, as i want to get the paint done professionally etc etc...

    Nice wheels draff.... much prefer that than the usual white teggys i see around.. What zorst you got on it?

    Jeez dirty_diesel you get bored quick dont ya! whats on the cards for you next? I liked the passat. but then I would wouldnt I.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,590 ✭✭✭tossy


    Lads dont know if you are aware of the R line back bumper,but it is the nicest golf rear bumper in my opinion,if i had of kept my golf i was going to get one,seriously rare and can be expensive but i love them.

    you can get them with or with out the exhaust cutout,the exhaust cutout is the same size as the anni one,i myself do prefer twin exhausts though like on my bora.

    Also do you actually drive with your fog lights on? When its not foggy?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,528 ✭✭✭copeyhagen


    my euro r has white hid lights, at night i drive on side lights with the fogs on.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,536 ✭✭✭Dolph Starbeam


    Fogs are a pain in the ass! You know why there called fog lights ye? The beam of the light isn't directed like headlights so most of the time they blind oncoming drivers.

    I don't mean to sound bitc*y but it is annoying...

    its standard at the minute, i'm just finished 3rd year in college and undecided about whether to go back for an honours degree or get a job but when i do finally get money the whole exhaust system will be changed from the manifold back as this is restrictive on the uk model of the integra.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,536 ✭✭✭Dolph Starbeam


    3ltr
    v6
    Quadcam
    24 valve
    185bhp standard @ 5800rpm
    189 ft/lbf of torque @ 4600rpm

    The power spread of the 3VZ-FE is wide, having 100% torque between 2500 rpm - 4600 rpm, with power trailing off by 6000 rpm. Stock redline is 6600 rpm, and the ECU's fuel/ignition cut is 7200 rpm. Coupled with custom madifold and staright thru exhausts off each bank and apexi induction kit so it should move the mr2 pretty quick....

    Only problem is that its still on the pallet...:(

    The only time I find problems with them is on the back roads.. Other than that don’t think iv been blinded with them, This is going to sound stupid and will prob get people moaning:D but I drive during the day with my front fogs on, Dunno about anyone else but I find it a lot safer cars can judge the distance better when they see your lights coming plus with the glare of the sun i find it a lot easier to see oncoming cars with there lights on..

    Yea, a full system would be nice alrite, much better than just a ricer back box. You'll defo have to get one. Where abouts you located? Havn't seen many red one about. I'm in a similar boat as you as I've just finished coll, I'm debeating over a full exhaust system or just cat back. Like if I get a full system then ill propably need to get it re set up on a rolling road cos the ecu wont have a clue whats going on! whereas with the cat back I can just enjoy the noise and the looks, but then I'll get no performance gain. Depends on the cash situation I suppose! Then again is there really much point in having 230bhp+ when 200 is probably at the limit as to what the chasis can handle well....


    Tossy, yea the rline is incredible looking alrite, awesome gti are the only place i know selling it, 340 sterling plus vat. which is pricey!! would love it though. If you hear of any second hand ones cropping up let me know.

    Mog, engine sounds good, you may as well get it set up on a RR, transfer the peak torque higher up the band maybe. (Unless you like that wide band, as itll be good for everyday driving less good for "spirited driving") that coupled with a new exhaust you should see a nice increase in peak hp.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,590 ✭✭✭tossy


    I wouldnt buy a bag of sweets of awesome,try these guys for a start,

    tmtuning.com

    i only know 2 R line rear bumpers in the country and maybe twice that in the UK so chances of gettingo ne second hand are rare.

    Cheers man, i'm just going to get a rr when i finish just to see the final power, i'll be happy for a while just with the noise of the v6, and hopefully i plan, 3 years time get a 3vz rebuilt with forged internals, get the heads done, a turbo, or a supercharger or if i'm lucky maybe compound charge it. There is no limit to how much can be done to this engine. There is already a few supercharged ones in England and 1 turbo one and i know it is possible to do both which would be a dream... Wouldn't be far off being on classic tax and insurance either lol:D

    I would show mine but all i've done so far is gti lights. I've a gti spoiler got for it along with a debadged grill. The spoiler is in reflex silver so i need to spray that, along with the grill and the plastic mouldings on the car. So i'm waitin to do them all at the same time.
