Just got the CTR detailed

[bigmouk]

I've done nearly 50k in it now and its only ever been waxed once since new . Enlisted the skills of Scott at OCD detailing over in Bolton and holy sh*t what a difference!!! Top guy, nothing too much trouble and does exactly what he says he is gonna do.

Was thinking of selling because i need a bigger car, things have slightly changed now

After 6 hours of graft it now looks like this ...... :approve:

 

[Neil G]

Very nice

I think if I spent 6 hours cleaning/detailing a car I wouldn't want to take it out lol

 

[bigmouk]

Even after being clayed, the PC was still pulling dirt out of the paintwork! You can really see the metallic now, all the green and red sparkles, really does look the part.

I thought the exhaust pipes were a lost cause aswell, they were black and nothing shifted it that i used. They are now a mirror chrome finish.

 

[Rasclart]

I shall be doing the little 206 gti we have just bought. Same colour as that. Thats what I plan to do at work. Since moving premises I can fit my car in the empty space inside LOL

Spoooooon in a zzzzdonny accent!!

N1 sounds reet on them!!

 

[bigmouk]

I do a lot of motorway miles and its fairly quiet at the moment. I know if i start messing with anything else the noise will increase significantly. TBH i'd want an LSD throwing in before anything else, can be hard work sometimes with no traction control.

Very good job

He can lay can't he?

Good mods youve made there btw.

 

[bigmouk]

Haha, yep i suppose! Doubt she would be too happy, her head just touches the roof of the civic when she is sat in the boot as it is. Would love a DC5, esp a modded one.

K-Pro + ITG Maxogen + Custom Map

how much did the mods set u back? im thinking of getting a ctr

 

[coatesy]

does the kpro really make 40bhp more at 6k revs than standard?
guess ya vtec has been lowered does it still pull to 8k rev?

 

[bigmouk]

K-Pro - £750 ish, ITG - £350 ish, 2 hour custom map - £160 ish.

TBH if i had the choice i would have waited and got an RBC manifold aswell with a hondata gasket and modified slam panel. This would cost around £400 fitted but would have given me 230-235 bhp after the custom map.

All easy mods to take off when selling if needed.

vtec at 4600, limiter at 8600

 

[jayxx83]

mint!

 

[_Kenny_]

Mmmn K-Pro. Good choice.

Looks mint mate. I reckon I'll be back in EP3 ownership after I move house next year. And cosmic is the best colour of the lot...although satin was easy to keep clean

Your CTR must have been registered up here as my old one was SG53

 

[kyle_sxi]

awsome job scotts done there hes a top guy

 

[m0ssy]

I'm in Bolton too, how much are we looking at for this sort of service. PM me if you wish mate.

Cheers

Think I remember you having a CTR mate ... come back to the dark side lol !!

If actually did a 400 mile round trip to Glasgow to pick it up! I basically emailed about 15 dealers with cheeky offers, 3 came back to me and finally struck a deal with a Honda dealership up in Glasgow.

It was 4 month old, done 3,000 miles and give £14k for it - after quite a bit of haggling! They were all around £16k down my neck of the woods. Not bad for a few hours on the computer and a few hours on the motorway

 

[Darren S]

Looking great Moz! My favourite colour in the CTR, that.

How's the front holding up from stonechips and stuff after 50k?

D.

 

[bigmouk]

Cheers Darren. Front is pretty damn good considering the paint is so thin on these. The only stone chips on the bonnet that have been touched up and ones from before i bought the car! Front spoiler aint bad either.

Hows your clio mate ? That done a few miles now ? Black isnt it.

Ah, she's doing well still. Mid-50's mileage now so the cambelt beckons early next year I would have thought. Had a few issues recently like a rear shock going, inserts on the exhaust, split CV boot clip, etc. But got these changed and chucked in some new NGK replacement plugs at the same time. That along with the rigid-6k oil swap seems to be keeping it sweet.

Never knew the CTR paint was so thin, tbh. On one of my many Evo window-shopping trips, I saw a black CTR in the line-up that literally had its front chipped to bits. Almost like flicking a brush with Tipp-Ex at it! Not that the Clio paintwork is much better - lol.

[CabinFever]

Nice CTR mate. Do you frequent civictype-r.co.uk at all? I have a friend on there (ozziej) who has the following mods - aem, spoon'd, dc sports manifold, k100, quaiffe l.s.d, uprated brakes, uprated clutch (nighthawk black) its a weapon, and with the LSD is a very good car to drive! The sound is also immense!
