So there was this civic....

[Levi]

When your tired of cleaning those wheels send them over to Belgium here!

That's gonna be 1 hot EG!

[Oxer]

Work on it!

i want to see those things mounted!

Trying for the 13th...

I have some shizzle in teh works

Got tires the other day... 195/45/R16 Hardest part is finding someone to help fit them. Homoz.

[Purp]

Here's a front bumper option for you. This is my hatch that I built. The front bumper is custom. My buddy and I did all the work. I think it would flow better with the rear if you did this..







Just some pics of it on the car... I think it would be killer with all the other shavedness you got going on

^ I like what you did with the bumper.

I was going to rock foggies....


But that looks quite amazing.....


Thanks for making life harder

[Oxer]

So I couldnt find anyone to help me/let me use their facilities to stretch the 195/45's... Apparently it is illegal to stretch and nobody wants to take the chance because they are liable.. And me and my mate couldnt quite get them to bead up....

So I went out and bought another set of tires. 205/45/16 on the fronts, 215/40/16 on the rears.... pics after this weekend on the car

Look forward to the pics,we have the same probs here in the UK with stretched rubber i dont think its law over here YET only a matter of time i fear! but the police and test centres **** them!

Here in Norway they fit whatever width you like. Once they couldn't get my new tires to inflate with the normal air hose, due to the stretch. So they bolted the wheel onto the hub, filled the tire with lighter fluid and lit it up. BOOM! And it was on. They also use a high pressure air tank to almost explode the tire onto the rim sometimes.
Never met anyone around here that won't fit streeeeetched rubber.

[Oxer]

I tried with carby cleaner, but the gap was far too big to "blow" the bead on... As for the bead blaster (high pressure air canister), no shops would let me use theirs, so I was pretty up shit creek...

But its alright I guess, I do have stretched rubber on them now, beggers cant be choosers..

[Oxer]

Just one for now..

The story behind it is...

We had it sitting on the hoist the day before the show with no suspension in it at all. The tow truck arrived to pick up the car so in three hours we took the dc2r suspension out of another shell, put it in this shell, adjusted the coilovers and smashed out the guards. Fitted the wheels and put it on the truck.

Unfortunately the front is wound down to the lowerst point, so we will either modify those coils or opt for new ones.. It also needs adjustable camber arms, and to be honest, im kind of amazed at how it sits with stock arms.

But in due time all these things will be addressed. The rear sits rather well though, with some more guard modification, and bar modification it will sit rather well.

Youd be amazed at how many people dont understand what the aim of the car is... I get constant criticism and it isnt even on the road! Cant wait to get pulled over and see the cops face.

I'm afraid this doesn't amaze me Around here people have recently been going overboard on the drift style or more track/race oriented look.
The latter I can actually appreciate, but the ones that are low enough to be seriously cool get alot more shit than praise.
