- Wed May 16, 2007 8:26 pm #8091 Nice coupe! I like those rims, the design isnt too flashy, they would be good for a sleeper. I like how they look black too.
The seats look like honda should have put them in as OEM

sometime I'd like to see some pics on how you made the headlights electronically adjustable

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

Nice coupe! I like those rims, the design isnt too flashy, they would be good for a sleeper. I like how they look black too.

Well, it's an LSi, wich has a little motor on the back of the headlight.
It's mounted with a few screws, zo it was easy to take m off, and mount m on the aftermarket ones, wich already were prepaired to make m fit.
Pics can be found HERE.

cool looking fresh, has it had a respray? paint looks mint

Thanks mate, but no.
Also, it looks way better on a pic, as in real life.
First brakes and so on, then performance, then looks.

lulz...

- Thu May 24, 2007 5:22 pm #8703 Today I had some time to do some automotive groceries

First stop; I bought 2 meters of vacuumcleaner hose, and 2 fuelfunnels.
The hose goes perfectly around the nozzle of the funnel, of course with a tierip.
The funnels go around te little airscoops in the stock bumper, and a piece of hose will go directly to the frontbrakes.
When driving around, the brakes will be cooled much better (and I'm the kind of driver who tries to find a deserted back road almost every time I go somewhere, and I love driving it like I stole it )
Though, the funnelnozzles do need some adjustments for optimised airflow.
Perfect for monday, because the Civic Club Holland is holding a track day then, and I'm driving.




Then off to the the ever helpfull Honda stealership.
I bought some new lightbulbs for the rearwindow heater switch, rear foglight switch, and emergencylightswitch (5pc.), also a new lightbulb for my unused ashtray.



When I was going to pay, I asked the guy who runs the storehouse if he could take a look at the prices of OEM floormats for my car.
He told me, that original accessories where only available up to 5yrs after the last official year of selling that model.
But since they get more requests like mine, they had the floormats made once in a while at a company who delivers the exact same model and quality, and they had a set for a 96 coup? (the dealer).
Perfect fit, only 30 euros!!
Only difference was, original Honda floormats have a Honda logo stamped on it, and these didn't.





FINALLY, I have decent mats, looking good, rigid, and they tend to stay were they belong (in place, not piled up underneath the pedals).
I'm a happy fellow now
