The Nogaro Blue EK Civic Sedan D15Z

[ErosRiot]

Hey S/W Folk! Hope all is well... I don't have much updates, been stagnating due to working on my own car a bit...

I was invited to due photo coverage at a Car Show this past Saturday, and I was pretty much excited as this was going to be the first time I get to showoff the progress on my Fiance's Nogaro Blue EK.

In a last minute decision, we decided to enter the car into the "Female Owners" category for Show & Shine, but lost points due to the engine bay not being sparkly clean... Even so, it was a very fruitful day!!

More updates will follow shortly, when pay day arrives again LOL!

Looking good dude, I prefer that gold/blue combo, the gold makes the blue stand out.

[FunfGang]

Very cool color! Those wheels look good on there, almost a '90s subaru rally color scheme going on.

haha alright man, do what you like. B20vtec's are cool, I have a high comp built b20v in my em1.

Your pictures are really good, btw. What kind of camera do you use?

Bro, you had me at EM1!! Always dreamt of owning one here in SA. I love the B20V setups because of the torque they make when built properly, would have personally preferred a K-swap but with the Dollar to Rand rate, I'd be eating sand whole year if I went that root right now lol.

Share some pics of your ride Bro? And some specs!!

I use, and have been using, a Canon 500D for a few years now, and I always shoot with my nifty fifty.

My Champ White Ferio which I had a front fender smash with will now become the stance build. An accident creates room for a colour change, I believe.

You lost me here.

I liked your original idea better, tbh. One functional racecar, one pretty stance car. Why did you change your mind?

Great call out Bro. Apologies if my post came across as confusing. Initially this was going to be a full on "stance" project, because the colour just screams "bag me on some J's" LOL.. But with how the car sits now, my direction has changed completely to a more functional approach, thus, the idea of stance has been scraped... Well, for now at least LOL.

It's only a little D15Z that's why track/race never came to mind, but I might swap out the motor for a B20V and S4C tranny if all goes well.

*Also, I ran into some license issues with the EF thus that has been put on hold until I can whip the previous owners head, and my thirst for racing is boiling over so I will have to make do with what I got LOL.

wait what?

Just needs some coilovers, white tyre writing and a lip then she will be ready for track day.

Hey guys, haven't done much upgrades since the last update. About two weeks ago I decided to get some of the Honda guys together in my crew for a little shoot. Here's a few sniplets of The Nogaro Blue EK.























Upgrades are in the planning stage. I scrapped the old idea of added wide "stance" rims and the SiR lip as I will be going for a more functional approach.

Watch this space.

Nice, I dig

[ErosRiot]

Lovely call out there Bro. The rims were recently resprayed, so I haven't had the chance to fit the Volk stickers on yet. But last night I fitted my photography brand name stickers on the car and it sits nicely.

I am really starting to move away from the clean, OEM look for a more JDM look.

Just curious, why don't you have the stickers on them? It would authenticate the wheels a lot more

[ErosRiot]

Decided to do a little shoot at work to showcase her progress thus far. The Gold Volk Rays are really starting to grow on me:

[ErosRiot]

Decided to change it up a bit. Fitted a set of Burnt Gold 15" 7J Volk Rays to add to that JDM factor. I am really loving the new look.



Now all she needs is some more lows.

[ErosRiot]

You and me both Bro LOL. It's called Nogaro Blue Bro, still need to flush the front bumper to complete the look and modify here and there to make the car stand out a bit in a sea of Ballade's LOL.
