Hi, I know I'm bit late on the uptake but new to the CTR and site!

I'm ner Bangor but work in Lisburn.

Does anyone meet up from the site much?
I'm looking few things done to my car (as prev owner did few things which I'd change) and keen to see if anyone knows good places to get bits/parts and also have chat about thoughts/opinions?

Cheers

It's got the mugen grill (same colour as the car cosmic grey) but I prefer the original, mines a facelift and it's on coilovers but they're knackered.
I'm also looking a set of oem wheels but I'm told both grill a d wheels r getting hard to find these days?

You should price a grill from Honda, can't see it being a lot, then sell the mugen one on here to get some money back.
OEM wheels come up on here, just paying for the postage is a bitch. The Jap scrap yards over Ulster should have some floating about, certainly not impossible to get just need to do the leg work and source them.
As for the coilovers, what you looking, more coilovers or springs? Again sets come up on here most of the time, or if you have a budget that can afford get new coilovers, sets for 650-800 which are good enough for what you want, XYZ/BC/D2 types.

The car has set of buddyclub n+ on it but adjustable rings/collars on one side are cross threaded-don't know how someone managed that and a rear has a broken spring- does anyone ever refurbish these things? I've a set of oem standard suspension which can put on the car in the meantime.

Will try Honda for the grill and c what they want for one and try few breakers for the wheels-looked on ebaybut never really know what your buying!

Ps cheers for all the help!

Buddyclub N+ are awesome. Get them out, send Buddyclub UK an email with the photos of damage etc and see what they can do. The cross threaded one may be done, as for the broken spring, easily replaced I'd say if that's all it is. Cracking coilovers if you can get them fixed mate....like really cracking coilovers.

Get on here mate and see what price the grill is.....

Has Jonny starting doing his own thing? though he seems to be a lil hard to get hold off, almost like he doesn't want to map it!lol
