Honda Civic ED7*Small Update 12/07/2010*

Post by tobiasnugent »

So i have been looking for a 4th gen for some time now after being forced to sell my crx. I was looking for a 1.4 dual carb to start with as its cheap insurance, but deep down always wanted another 1.6 d16a9. One popped up for sale on 4guk as spares or repairs with the MOT running out, The price was epic so i couldnt resist.

The car wont be on the road till july time, as i need to save for my holiday also.

Here are the pictures from the for sale add

The sills need replacing or patching, my dad had a good look though so must not be to bad, i got a quote from a garage £300 to repair them.

This is the mods it came with

Powerflow exhaust (similar to mongoose design)
megan racing manifold
aem air intake
momo race steering wheel
gmax -40mm shocks and springs
de fogged rear bumper
vented laguna splitter
custom extented spoiler.

My to do list

New door card
New sills
New arches
Re spray
Remove green stripe
Remove tow hook
Change the pedals (big A$$ momo things)
Put some recaros in i have bought
Fit CD Player
MOT
Tax
Insurance

My in the future list

Change rear lip
Wire tuck
Wind Deflectors
Change front lip (chargespeed)
Bride Brix Seats
New steering wheel
Snap off boss
Some alloys Regamasters i think not decided though
HID's
Mayb some coilovers
Camber adjusters
New exhaust system
AEM filter that goes down into the bumper
Uprated speakers all round
8 or 10 inch sub
New headunit
Spoon mirrors
Vtec front end mayb

Probably missed loads of things of though

And

Majorly in the future list

B16 or b18 Or turbo

I will get some of my own pics up of the rust/repair work that has been done

Good stuff! Spoiler looks pretty cool.

Glad you got one in the end mate. :top:


Is that a VT rear bumper? Looks like one I've "flushed"... :?
