Hi guys, I bought 'Soulless' ep3 TYPE R just before my bday in November!! I thought its about time to make one of these threads, as I have alot of plans lol
I am changing from a E320 cdi Benz which Iv had for about 3.5years and now im back home in MK I wanted something abit more fun to drive, i just miss the 80mph+ torque from the benz lol
When we had some sun, i gave it a quick detail, a pic of the Benz(when dirty) lol
So mods it had ontop of premier spec:
- Rota Torque (gunmetal grey?) which were only on the car for 300miles before i bought it, wrapped in Bridgestone!
- Lowered 40mm on fk springs - original included
- Aftermarket B-pipe
- lightly tinted front windows
- Heko wind deflectors
- Smoothed/boared out airbox, with cold air feed from grill
- Expensive screens professionally mounted into back of recaros
- Kenwood headunit installed
- Momo pedals
Since I have had the civic, I have done a few changes:
-Installed some 8000k 55w HIDs
- 25 SMD LED AMBER sidelights
- Led rear numberplate lights
- Sony Headunit installed
- Full service, all the fluids changed, upgraded pads
Plans for the future:
- Bought abp eibachs -30mm with front adjusters, just waiting to buy some second hand eibach rear camber adjustment bolts, and get FRSU done
- BIG sound system install - my last two systems in the Merc were OVER 4000w peak, OVER 2000W rms (subs + components) in the large planning stage at the moment as it will be alot of wiring and work, hopefully looking like 4 screens, 1 being a pioneer 5900 dvd headunit with reversing camera fitted, infinity kappa components amped via infinity amp, alpine typre R components for rear, RE XXX v3 12" sub for bass tuned quite low and a seperate dvd player for music dvds, and sound deadened
- Wrap wingmirrors, bonnet, roof,spoiler,interior in carbon fibre, and have some stickers to put on lol
- Add sunstrip(same shade as rears to windscreen) and paint calipers when weather improves
- Mugen/replica spoiler and front grill and maybe front splitter
- Tewiga/gruppe M induction kit (Not in the near future)
- r8byb B pipe- not sure about the difference in sound between unsilenced and silenced?
- Fit dc5 brembos
- Start button on left of steering wheel
- Skunk 2 gearknob
- Armrest
- Red vtec Lights inside car
- Red Lip around alloys
I just need to get a new high paying job so the project can get moving quickly lol
Let me know what you guys think, and any questions you may have. I know not everyone will like it, or like certain bits about it, but that's because we're different people lol.
