projectgtr

Sup guys
Finally got my hands on the new car today, toed it from the docks today i was like a cheshere cat all the way home. From seeing it in pictures to sitting in it a driving it seemed forever but its here,

the good news.... its imaculate couldnt have asked for a cleaner car, the bad.. family stuff has come up meaning i wont be driving her till proberbly january ah well at least its here. any way i wont be given too much away.

it was dark when i got the camera out and shes still dusty so go easy on the comments, after buying OEM lights im really starting to like the "rice" ah well heres the pics let me know what you think......., let me know what you think good and bad

Duff

love it mate!! wheels suit it to the ground too!! but PLEASE get rid of those awful rear lights!! DE-RICE that mo'fo now!!..oh and if your selling your one recaro to get a set of red ek9 ones let me know!!:D

Masada

very nice., im not into lexus lights at all but their not all that bad, at least there not chrome.,lol.,

Atomic Pineapple

very very nice, love the wheels but as pointed out before the rear lights really let it down, change them and get us some daylight pictures

colm_mcm

the rear light's aren't too bad. It's gotten to the stage where a Civic with proper rear lights grans your attention!

Great looking car, you must be feeling smug!

Cadzer

Duff

Shes an SiR so id imagine it s a B series engine!!

Yeh man must be quite shat looking out your window to see that in your driveway and not been able to drive it!!..ahwell, it'll give ya plenty of time to mod the balls of it!!:D

how are you fixed for insurance in the meantime? Can you actually insure it against theft/damage?

Sup guys
Glad you like it, about the lights i hated them in pictures but in person they are really growing on me, as ive said i have an OEM set but im looking to mod these before i put them on.

Engine wise its a B16 with a full 5zigen exhaust (thats all your getting for now). Not driving it doesnt bother me at the moment as i have alot of things going on at the moment. Insurance wise im waiting on a word back from a friend who is trying to sort insurance for me for just fire and theft with no driving. I will be transfering my insurance on to it for 2-3 weeks while my other civic gets some work done.

Should be hitting the ring in september with it, now that should be interesting

Ill get some day pics up when i get a chance.

colm_mcm

What Civic do you drive at the moment?

projectgtr

its just an EG3 (1.3 DX) so this is some leap allright, just getting a new cv and a service for it so it can be NCT`d and sold no point in having 2 civics allthough id love to keep it and get it K20`d for a bit of a reliable track weapon but the girl friend wont let me take 3 parking spots (2 cars and work van)

Duff

Man lose those rear lights!!lol..although I do quite like the ironing board spoiler!!:P..when you say ring to ya mean the german RING??..

colm_mcm

I always liked EG3 Civics, probably my favourite shape, they used to be the must-have car in my formative years (late 90's)

projectgtr

yeah im off to the nurburgring come september cant wait. as for the"ironing board spoiler" i like it, its not like the typeR spoiler that you see on every other civic, i want to set my car apart from all the type R`s and the wanna be`s.

Yeah colm EG`s are by far the nicest civics believe it or not i couldnt get a good clean example for the price i got this for, just got a quote today (labour only) for a B16-B18 conversion just need to price engines and parts now.

Atomic Pineapple

the high spoiler looks nice so it does really suits it, i like the lower boot spoiler too but i'd rather it didnt stick out as much but its still nice the way it is too.
