They don't look good.

[Naith]

Why is the cage in the evo like miles away from the B pillar? lol

Because its a half cage?

doesnt matter if its a half cage? a good one should still sit inside the B pillar, mine does along with alot others.

i have had 1 of those before...only 1...that was for a reason, unless you know something i don't

good update btw

 

[conneh]

Well i'm back next week for 4/5ish months.

Will be down Norton most weekends if your about!

 

[conneh]

570Z anyone? LS1 350z.

Animal.

 

[MaLicE]

that fit looks mint!

 

[conneh]

It does look rather awesome.

 

[Christopher]

That 350 makes me sad. Ugly, stupid pushrod engines FTL. The V series is so much better.

I also really want a Fit/Jazz. K-Swap, J's bumpers. MMMMMMM

Win.

 

[Timmay]

some more yummy cars

cant believe this thread is still going!

 

[Nafoff]

Only a single picture, but I LOVE this EP3

dated picture.....
looks very different now...

may post it in the near future, but it has gone under an epic re-build that would put most track cars to shame

EP hatch...or his facebook

Link?

um....check the sticker also

 

[Curtis!]

Definatly undecided about EP3's, they seem really long? The yellow one though with the right stance/spacing/wheels <3

 

[Nafoff]

 

[Hixle]

Stance is spot on <3

 

[Christopher]

Amazing Impreza!

 

[JoeyD]

Love that! and I hate EP3 civic's...

[Bloooor]

I HATE most Scoobys and what they stand for around here....

But oh my..

 

[Curtis!]

I'm actually quite tempted to try and get an EK9 tbh, obviously after 1/2 years driving instead of the 1.2.

 

[Christopher]

Good luck insuring it.

Group 20.

Even for the 1.6 version? Will have to research etc.

 

[Firas]

all ek9's are 1.6's mate. the civic vti has a b16a2 engine producing just over 160bhp and the civic ek9 has a b16b engine producing 185bhp.

the one in the pic was actually a 1.4 that had front end damage and the guy put an ek9 body kit on it and im sure it also has a b18 engine from a teg aswell

 

[Curtis!]

From this (I think?):

Not sure what engine is tbh,

To:

Cheers for the info, EK9 is definatly out of reach @ 185, will very doubtfully get insured.

 

[Mr Burns]

If only S2000's came with free sunny weather I'd buy one.

 

[conneh]

You can tell that it's not an EK9 due to the 4 stud hubs, EK9s are 5.

My had has a 1.5 v-tech (not sure what model this is, LSi?). Only somthing like 110/120bhp. He has done some work like manifold, 6 piece strut kit, expensive coilys and camber adjustment arms etc. It's quick in all fairness, not a big top end but it gets there nicely.

Hes 18 and pay £3500 third party on it.

 

[ashman01]

Dont know if this has already been posted but if so i apologise! Awesome Skyline R32 GTR tuned by Saurus garage in japan running somewhere in the region of 500bhp atw. Featured in Banzai and Max Power a few years ago. Easily one of the nicest skylines i have ever seen!

 

[theduck]

1.5 is LSi normally yeh, good motors tbh.

 

[Curtis!]

I'll wait till I'm old! I'm not having all this s**t bodykit with slow car b****cks again.

Cheers.

try and get an insurance qoute mate. im about £700 for my ek9 and so was dean i think. i just turned 21 so i think you will be surprised at how cheap the insurance will be for a group 20 insurance car.

yeh im sure that guy that owns that civic is martins mate. ive saw it a few times about dundee. you cant tell from the pics wheather its a b16 or b18 but im sure its a b18.

 

[Curtis!]

Less than 1.8k @ 19 would be nice I guess, see if I can get away from getting a 172 etc.

 

[conneh]

I wouldn't call the 1.5 LSi slow. His is a great car.

 

[Firas]

one of my friends has an a sohc which is whats in the lsi i think. they are nippy but not quick.

Yeah it's a B18 that's in it.

 

[bomber]

ashman, its garage sauras not sauras garage

wasnt it re-built in the UK pretty much getting rid of everything that was on it previously except the GarageSauras engine? i know the retrim etc were British, or at least done in Britain
