Typical.



and you're done.

yea i was thinking about doing the 99-2000 front end with that bumper (replica of course haha) but meh. its okay.

[drftwerks]

that bumper is ugly like herpes infested homo dick

[ronmcdon]

yeah idk about that bumper either.
it's not too practical to throw cf or carbon kevlar where its most likely to get scratched up.
looks wise, its a bit too flashy for me.
regular cf is more sublte & pleasing to the eye imo.

[ayuaddict]

Koopa knows my parts collection that hasn't been driven in 5 years... hahahaha

Fuck, that picture is old! That car has so much dust on it the mites have built a city with schools, running water and a volunteer fire department. Amazingly their crime rate has dropped 10% this month. That new sheriff is a real nut buster.

I'll have to check out hybrids.jp

It hasn't been a process of 5 years. More like 5 years since he's last looked at it.

It's pretty serious though.

Edit: 96-00 Honda Civic EK Backyard Special/Airwalker Front Bumper

oh yea the replicas haha.

those look better than the actual ones too.

[Taniguchi_Is_#1]

i was gonna say, there's no way someone would sell an almost 1K bumper for $200 unless it was in 5 pieces.

BYS CIVIC

Man I don't know Honda's aren't my game. Just trying to help haha.

I think that bumper is sweet though. Can't go wrong for $180 bucks, plus it doesn't have the gay little cf lip.

[kuro]

Koopa - it might get JCI'ed this year... hahahaha

BYS CIVIC

could be possible. parts like 75k yen, which is around $760.
if it's scraped to shit, the owner might just be willing to get rid of it for anything.

the knock-off cf lips from companies like jdmshit.com are around $200 iirc.
http://jdmshit.com/parts/exterior/index.html
Doesn't make sense to sell a used knock off part for the price of a new one.
or at least not unless they're trying to rip you off.

kinda wish jdmshit made polyu lips for the 240's.

here's the backyardu catalogue.
figure a rough rule of thumb dollar/yen currency exchange is US$1 = 100 japanese yen.
happy shopping.

Because 240's are cheaper than Honda's.

That's saying something.

[ayuaddict]

i dropped by a local 240 meet.

...with my honda.

dun dun dun.



the car is almost where i want it, in terms of my personal compromise between "daily-drivability" and "cost effectiveness" and "looks pretty cool" and "handles pretty coo".

so yea thats that.

new (big) (nissan) project for summer! woooooo!

[lflkajfj12123]

Because some of us can appreciate a car for what it is










New radiator. FWin aluminum 2 core, put Spoon N1 suspension back on, took off BYS wing.

[ronmcdon]

If that radiator is anything like my existing C&R half size alum unit,
then it's not really sufficient for extended hpde runs.
my eg would overheat 15-20 mins towards the end of a track run.
never had issues running koyo full size aluminum units in my 240 or prior miata.
hopefully you'll have better luck than me.

haha. please be working on a rb25/26 jzs161.


koopa, get some paint on that valve cover and your engine bay would be pretty pretty.

[ronmcdon]

i kinda like the 'rustic' look to the engine bay, intentional or not.

Can u explain me what's the purpose of theses holes in the bumper ?

[Koopa Troopa]

It's already been explained in this thread but it's to reduce drag caused by a faulty design from Honda

The crappy looking valve cover is completely just me being lazy.

You've got problems that extend beyond your radiator. I've driven in VTEC for 2 hours straight on my OEM radiator and never got over normal temps on my guage. However I also don't have a real water temp meter in my car however I know for a fact my factory one works and works well. I didn't need the aluminum 2 core, I bought it cause it was cheap and a better radiator is never a bad thing regardless if you need it or not.

For the record how long are your HPDE runs lasting?
