looks like a lovely cruiser mate. must be a massive step up from the clio lol

cheers chris. haha still not fancy making the move to ek9 ownership then?

cheers richy. haha Edinburgh meet was a massive rush to get the car ready but got there in the end eh. was really nice having your company on the trip too and was an enjoyable day as a whole. No worries man come through anytime. ah cool was wondering where you got to on saturday. cheers man:)...

Small update: Fitted the parts i painted the other day. Also got a call from honda saying my bolts are here so should hopefully have the coilovers, control arms and tie bar fitted this week aswell. Also drilled out the hole for the alarm sensor. Freshly painted bonnet catch...

my mate has a minted fresh import. proper pocket rocket even with his being around 200bhp. They are not the best handling cars though. They do like to understeer alot.

looks awesome man. Always loved these

yeh malice tried it but still no budge man. its a pretty common problem on the civics unfortunately so new bolts are inevitable i think

sorry mate inbox cleared now :)

Thanks for the comments guys. Yup ant prices are pretty crazy for jdm stuff. just because of the huge demand for this stuff but to be fair honda themselves are pretty expensive too for parts. update: Been busy this week with rebuilding a pitbike engine for my wee bro and striping down the...

Thats a good thing though as when you buy spoon stuff you know its either oem standard or even better. Spoon prices are heavily tied in with honda prices for example the spoon stroker kit was £600-700 before but now its £1400 because honda have bumped up the price of the components.

haribo's one(first vid) is spoon stroked but the other one has a b18 out of a teg amongst other things ofcourse. The spec list on haribos old ek9 is unreal.

Thats haribo's old ek9. im gutted i never saw this in the flesh before he sold it as he only stays up the road from me. The gearbox cost him £4k to get built but the it is really what makes this car what it is. engine was dynod at 200whp. As far as i can remember it was getting 12's on the...

simply awesome man. love it

I have the supersport (unsilenced) version on my rep and its awesome. Very subtle and well made and as for sound well driving around at low revs you would hardly notice it but give it some beans and it sounds awesome. In my experience though it wasnt a straight fit and some welding and cutting...

awesome work malice. cant wait to see how the wheels turn out.

lol gally its true only people who know what reggas are will understand but as you say though the majority will think i just threw on the cheapest wheels i could find lol. haha will hopefully make a meet or two this year and hopefully it will have been mapped on the new ems by then. Pres mate i...

cheers rob :) lol sorry first page was a bit mad but all i can say is if you get one you wont be disappointed ;)

thanks again for the comments guys. cheers mate. Since i bought the car in mid march i have only done around 400 miles on it. I very rarely have to use the car to get about as dundee is a small town and everything is pretty much in a walking distance from me. I do have a 1.2 clio, which i do...

great effort man. cant wait to see vids of it running.

cheers man. come round anytime mate would be interested in having a nosey at the megan as i never got a proper look it it the last time. Also cheers i got your pm mate and dont worry its not that worrying and its nothing i didint know before lol.

cheers mate. That looks like a tidy example that your mate has bought. change the wheels for some enkei rpf1's and it will looks amazing. i have a mate who's car started out as a 1.4 but then it got completely overhauled with a full respray and a b18 engine but he ended up breaking the car last...

Cheers darren mate. Yeh i always said i would go all out on a project car before i turn 30. I wasnt planning on doing it this soon as im still only 21 and then this somehow became that project. I must admit though possibly my biggest inspiration was foxy. I just loved that boys commitment and...

yup totally dude. like you said all down to personal taste in the end but im glad your getting an ek9 anyways. cheers mate. haha funnily enough i do understand where you are coming from. At the last civic meet i was at in edinburgh we were all parked up just having a look around each others...

Yup turkish i think you posted it up originally. cheers man. haha pre-facelift is where its at man. Seriously though when i first bought it the original idea was to do a facelift conversion and swap over the whole front end but i changed my mind in the end partly because of the cost and partly...

Thanks again for the awesome comments fellas. It makes the thousands of pounds and hundreds of hours invested in it in the last few months less painful and all worth the effort. I didnt expect to see so many ek9 admirers on a clio forum but you guys obviously know what these cars are all about...

Thanks mate, im glad you enjoyed it. In terms of driving, ek9's are simply epic machines. Everything about them is just so sharp and so raw and evertime i take it out i never feel like coming back home. I think people get disappointed when they either drive a bad example (and beleive me there is...

thanks again guys. haha chris will keep you in mind ;)

Thanks again for the positive comments guys :)
