Looks lovely that! Must resist....

Il have an xyz pipe with resonator please Chris

Injen for me fella, just based on more findings of positive results/reviews than any other

The Injens will make you a couple bhp without a map from previous data sheets but a map will make the best of if. Popchargers are good for noise but they get alot of heat soak so not ideal for power gains. Go with the Injen imo

Running with decats isn't illegal its if it fails the emissions test, my old e36 passed emissions with decats albiet only just

The only ones that seem to make a small amount of top end power whilst sounding great and looking/fitting spot on is the Injen long tube. Im looking at one for mine at the moment However to make the most out of them and to ensure your air/fuel ratio is safe you'll need a remap. From memory the dual Injens are around £500, other options are Stillen but ive read they dont fit as nicely. Have a look on a few of the traders websites that will help you decide. Also look around for reviews and tests, always research a product before buying Hope that helps fella

Chris at Tarmac deals direct with motordyne, if your quick you'll get in the next order

Best y pipe - Motordyne xyz, hands down Best intake - Injen long tube from actual dyno and tuning shops graphs/reviews or 06 airbox with panel filter (ive got HKS) Best exhaust - negligible but most likely something along the lines of Motordyne TDX or Amuse R1 titanium Best plenum spacer - Motordyne 5/16 Best decats - Motordyne ART pipes, again hands down. Best cams - most likely Tomei drop in ones for n/a dont require timing adjustment. Best remap for n/a - Uprev, pretty much all you can do albeit to great effect. Best exhaust manifolds - DC Sports from dyno sheets/tuning shop experience, or Tomei and Crawford they are stainless not ceramic coated like the DC option.

If you have a revup you'll need the mrev2 and 5 16th motordyne spacer that should get you around 20bhp and 25lb ft. Quite a proven good mod for the revup The mrev2 gives gains on a DE aswell just not much, the motordyne spacer netted me 13bhp, Id like an mrev2 for mine but for another 5ish bhp its alot of money to spend

Not normally a old school civic fan but that looks like some serious work and effort gone into that which I can appreciate. Looks great! Now onto the Z which is another ball game best colour for sure and the plans sound good just to improve it a bit more but I warn you it wont stop there haha. If you want to some inspiration of what to do on an azure z take a lool at my journal fella theres quite alot done Looking forward to keeping track of this

I agree they are properly good pads, I did the same the other day looked at them after about 3k over here daily use along with the 2k euro trip to stelvio and the ring. Still have over half left!

Pretty much have its just me being anal like usual cant leave things alone always searching for something better

Budget was neils reply

Looks easy enough but that will be something that happens last I think. The last minor detail

I wouldn't say ebc yellows are budget they are just cheaper than other competition brands I found them better then black diamond by a considerable margin

Excellent cheers mate although I can see me end up with the depo crystal ones

Ebc yellowstuff

Thanks Zeus, yeah its nearly done now thank god Matt, yeah it's his new style looks great in person has a nice depth to it and the three z dots on it to. Will get a close up of it

Check your rocker covers and spark plug holes for oil, 2 litres is rather alot to top up

5w30 is whats meant to be in the car. You can use 5w or 10w40 though

Il have a look into the rear indicators, see whats about and how it can be done. Buster, it looks alot better in person pictures dont do it justice. Alot more colour and depth in reality camera cant really get hold off. Its different to the norm

Electrical tape comes in handy, got rolls in the car

Cheers lads, definitely worth the money. Id love crytsal fogs and indicators but they are like 95 quid! Cant be paying that for two small units

So another christmas has done the rounds, the mrs and myself went halves on some genuine facelift led rear lights as one of my presents. Ive been wanting them for ages as they just update the car so much aswell as being ALOT brighter so a safety aspect aswell. Took 10 minutes to fit them nice easy access The brake lights are soooo bright trying to get a picture just makes the camera go funny will try at night from far away next time Next up is a Motordyne XYZ pipe with resonator thats on order with Tarmac that will see the exhaust system finally complete!, after that i really need to get myself down to the Z shed so i can get the rca mod done on the stereo. Still need to fit the oil cooler and rocker covers but tha will be done in january, after that its just finishing the car off really, need to get the map tweaked for all the new mods and a few small cosmetic things like gloss black door handles and going to do the headlining in alcantara Cheers for reading all, til the next time Arran
