No compromise Supercharged ek9 progress thread

I'll keep an eye out. Btw meant to ask you about your recaro mats as I'm thinking about pulling the OEM ones out and putting them to one side. Wanted an idea on price and where you got them? Feel free to PM if you don't want to post it up on here.
The other question was whether you're running camber adjusters front and rear? Your ride height is bang on IMO but I'm not about to drop mine to that height yet if I need to buy a few parts to sort the geometry out.

Will pm you details about the mats Si.
Im not running camber arms but i will be getting a full geo eventually and so will have a set fitted for when that gets done. Its fine the way it is though as in the camber isn't at a level where its going to destroy the tyres.

Amazing work getting the magazine feature. Well deserved.
Miles away from the Clio 1.2 days mate
No problem helping out though, was good. For the record this thing is quick - very quick, its hard to explain but its just mental with that supercharger.

Thanks again for your help ben mate. haha yeh its a bit different from the clio but i still do miss it sometimes.
Appreciated guys
Not been doing much recently to the car as i have exams coming up in less than a week. Just bought a set of s2k clocks which i will have to modify the connectors to accept the ek loom. Just need to find a plate of carbon or kevlar now so i can get a bezel cut out for it. I think im going to hold on to my ek9 clocks though as once the novelty has worn out on these i will no doubt want to see the 10k/rpm rev counter back

Noice
got a link si? think since the ap1 cluster is a bit smaller in size than the ek one you will still have to have a plate of some sort in the back. Be interested to see if someone found a way of doing it differently though.
Yeh there are not that many in the uk, I already have a wiring diagram off HT so i could get one made up myself for pennies. I will hold onto the ek9 cluster regardless though.

Not too bothered about the sticky residue just now but will be cleaning the insides of the wheels when i get round to fitting the new discs before mot time. Got exams to worry about just now.
And they are not chipped to f**k. The black stuff is dirt and considering its the original paint on them, they are in very good condition. The turni's on my clio were worse and they were refurbed before i put them on.

S2K clocks seem to be on the up in Civics. I've an acquaintance with a Turbo'd civic coupe, and he's just got some S2K clocks to fit.
cheers bifcaids. Not seen the feature yet myself but will pick up a copy this week and have a read.
There is a guy that has started to make a wiring harnesses for them to make them virtually plug and play and thats why you will start to see more of them on civics gaz. will also mean that the price of s2k clusters will go up, which is why i got mines early.
My rays nuts were locking but the d1 spec arent. You can buy a set of locking nuts to go with them but i think im done with forged aluminium nuts anyway so will probably replace them with a set of open ended steel nuts with lockers soon. Aluminium nuts are no use for the track as they loosen up with heat. thats why MSA requires competition cars to run steel nuts for that very reason.

Thanks for the link malice. Exactly what i want.
Lol si not fancy sticker bombing your 9 then
If I did it wouldn't be courtesy of a stickerbomb book or from the offerings handed out on a mag. Just felt a bit like I was buying a spotty teenagers magazine with the plastic cover stuffed with giveaway junk.
Also I seem to remember reading 1993 in the article, if so they either had a typo in it or have no clue what age your car (or any EK9) is!
