Czezcho ec8 lowflyer, the rise of phoenix

[joe f]

Looks good. Just those tints..

[Czezcho]

I paint the car next summer, (same grey), so i dont wax it a lot before winter,
thanks for praise and positive feedback, i am sorry that i dont wanna remove
the tints, but it's hardest job so far (mirror tints require 110% awere and 110%
success rate that they look good and i am pretty delight the result, and i dont waste
material at all + my wife says that she likes them and there is no way to remove them...
well i suppose highway...)

Intake plenum and ram-air pipes are allmost all done, little more glassfibre
to few parts, and i need fabricate levellers that move smaller pipe inside of plenium.
Sad thing is that i must work 12 to 14 hours a day in my work so i got zero freetime to
glassfibre production, well weekend is coming

Great effort and welcome to 4GUK

[bryan]

x2,
car will be lovely with a new paintjob. sits well on your suspension setup.
where you from Czezcho?

[Czezcho]

I am from the land of 1000 lakes... (from Finland)

I was planed that i built new mini-me motor to this frame, but this week change my plans.

I buy totally new civic, 16i16 model, year 90, driven only 90k, firm condition and
been only 1 person before me... so that is the car that i won't ruin with tints or enything
what "spoils" the car , exept that i order jdm bumbers from Japan. I go get the car
next mounth so i don't have eny pictures of that car yet, sorry.

So back to this car: it gets now fibreclass bumbers and sideskirts and side exit exhaust and massive stereo install...
(weight isn't broblem enymore, this car become my cruising vehicle and my main body transporter
to work and back and it's gona stay 1.3l, or not )

Does enyone has more clever ideas to "improve" car look? (i mean solid continue to classfibre bumbers, side exhaust, side skirts
etc... to revolutionary/different styling than most of 4g's?)

Um didnt undastand that but improve the look of a 4g would be

A set of wheels preferablys rotas
Midwing
Chargespeed or chargespeed replica rear wing
A front and rear lip
And a pin stripe

[Czezcho]

This is a stereotype of 4g improment or styling

Um didnt undastand that but improve the look of a 4g would be

A set of wheels preferablys rotas
Coil-overs and slammed look *
Amber side lights and fog lights *
No tints *
Midwing
Chargespeed or chargespeed replica rear wing
A front and rear lip
And a pin stripe

I dont wanna do a stereotype styling to this ec8 Civic, i do that to 16i16 (it going to be ultra "clean")
I mean i want ideas that are not common, and what are not so "fashioned" or "in"
and are maybe "crazy", but what could "fit" to a 4g...
But i like the idea of midwing, but exatly i am not a huge fan of big spoilers or etc.

Thank you for ideas enyway, the game is started, more ideas? C'mon...

Well everybody has their own opinion but good luck

[Czezcho]

i want to swap ec9 speedo to ec8, but i find out that speedo isn't direct bolt on... aaaaarrggh!

Does enyone has picture (or blueprint or what is the right english word) where is marked
right places on all those electronic cables, now speedo isnt working right

[bryan]

speedo runs on a cable to your gearbox czezcho,

check the cable is connected properly to your clocks. the rest should plug straight in

[Czezcho]

The speedo works all right, but everything else not.
Lights, turn signals are wrong, i thought that it would be direct bolt on
but in my car it isn't, maybe someone of last owners made some changes
that i don't know, maybe?? Even rpm meter jumps like crazy...

Now i reach the maximum lowering of 4g, tyres hit to fender at sharp turns,
i need to find a tool what bends my fenders at front, is it now ultra low?

[bryan]

sits great on those wheels, needs a front lip though

[Czezcho]

It needs me to finish my glassfibre front bumber, its based mk3 escort (a (f) ford one)
Illusion model, or it was that before i mold it again to different shape, it's now closer to
Skyline bumber then escort, quite good looking exatly and it has nice "lip" + it has my ram-air
hole at right place, my old bumber ram-air hole was eventually at wrong place (too far side at center line).

More pics coming up, if i could make time from work

[SuperDOHC]

Thats slammed looks great

How low have you dropped it ?

[James4g]

smaller width tyres would sort that problem, it compromises the handling but being that low it looks like you dont really mind about that
