[benkelsall]

pics are missing of your car, unless one of them is as they've got different number plates.

[Mochachino]

Nah they're just the finished product of what my car will look like, only difference is the wheels, inspirational. And yeh they have different number plates because they're two different cars.. lol

[smiith]

Love you Danny xxx

[benkelsall]

But i want pictures of your car

[Mochachino]

Love you Danny xxx

[CHIP]

Definitely need some 98 spec wheels dude. Think it will freshen it up a lot :)

[Mochachino]

Yeh it sure does, I will be madeup when its got the 98 specs on!

[BBM]

I love it Danny.

[Mochachino]

Cheers mate.

So Ive seen this rear lip and it makes the rear end look hell of a lot better. Im on the lookout for one which I will get smoothed in when the body work is done:

[Cal]

Lip looks good you arse :y: Definitely agree on getting it smoothed in, will be doing the same with the Nismo rear spats on mine.

[BBM]

Mugen rear wing ;)

[Mochachino]

Ok so I replaced the nearside rear pads about 2 months ago as they were down to the metal, and now Ive got the noise of low pads again. Gone and checked and theyre right down to the metal again. Couldn't move the disc in the air, turns out the caliper is seized on, handy! Couldnt find any rebuild kits for my model, or new calipers, so got in touch with a company that say they can get hold of anything including grey import parts, and ordered a new rear caliper from them :) £140 though. Could have probably found one cheaper, but need one right now, and they're local.

Got new disc and pads ready to fit to the new caliper.

Next up, 98 spec wheels :y:

[m11ler]

Good stuff. Any photos of your actual car though lol

[Mochachino]

I got a few but theyre poor quality! Will post them up after work

[Mochachino]

New caliper arrived yesterday, and just got it fitted.

Was a doddle. Old disc was cracked and only a few mm thin, was ready to just fall apart. Pads, well there was nothing to take any pictures of..

Once the old caliper was off it was impossible to move the piston.

New caliper:

http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg33/dan_sax/newcaliper1.jpg

All fitted :) :

[vtectransplant]

Simauto are pretty good for parts for future reference. :y:

[Mochachino]

Cheers, they were my first call when I was on the search for a rebuild kit or replacement. However, they only supplied 98spec kits :n: :(

Dunno what you're on about, it looks wicked, stop winging lol

[Mochachino]

Purchased a few car cleaning products.

-Wolfs De-Ironizer
-Wolfs Aggressive Clay
-Drying Towel

This is an attempt to get rid of the brake filings from the seized caliper which are on my paint work! Rear bumper and bonnet are going to be resprayed.

Just waiting on them to be delivered from www.cleanyourcar.co.uk

[CHIP]

Thought you was buying an e30, Liam? :P

[Mochachino]

haha car needs to be in a good condition to sell though!

[Mochachino]

Car needs two new tyres on the front, so rather than getting two shit tyres for the shit alloys that need refurbishing, I got a tyre and wheel package off eBay.

SW98 Sprints :)

[Ashleyp]

they look like what you already have? lol

oh wait, after reading, i think i get it. you're using these for the tyres and selling the current ones?

[Mochachino]

oh wait, after reading, i think i get it. you're using these for the tyres and selling the current ones?

Currently have Evo 2 or 3 wheels on! They're in a disgusting state so haven't posted any pictures of them!

Did have the 96 spec wheels which are similar to these but 15" these 98 specs are 16" and a more straight, square spoke. They make a HUGE difference!

[Ashleyp]

I see, i see.

just re read page one. I'd only seen the top pics with the white wheels on, and not the bronze ones further down.

how much do red H wheels go for? they pricey?

[Mochachino]

Ash I'm confused! haha

Red H wheels, im pretty new to Honda's not really dived in or learnt much about them, but what are H wheels :oops:

[Ashleyp]

red H is a term for honda :P the logo is a red H.

get it? :detective: lol

[Mochachino]

haha thats what I thought, but wernt sure.

Well basically think of the SW98 wheels ive just bought as the VTS wheels of the Integra scene, these ones in particular cost me £460. Was advertised for £515.

96 spec wheels (my old ones) are like VTR wheels, and go for about £250ish, although I sold mine for £120 as they were in a state with bald tyres.

Evo wheels I suppose are like 306 cyclones, and have the same value as 96 specs.

[Ashleyp]

£460 for wheels and tyres isn't bad at all! much better value than the other overpriced stuff you JDM bumboys enjoy ;) lol

[Mochachino]

£460 for wheels and tyres isn't bad at all! much better value than the other overpriced stuff you JDM bumboys enjoy ;) lol

lol, very true!

CCW Classics that I love are $2400

I like the look of them, however that isnt the look im going for with the car, im going for the perfectly standard look, apart from height ever so slightly. All about how the car performs, looks good to me in standard form :)

[harry289]

Nice choice of wheels. Definitely an improvement! 15's just tend to look too small on a teg

[Mochachino]

Nice choice of wheels. Definitely an improvement! 15's just tend to look too small on a teg

I agree, 16s transform the car!

[CHIP]

About time you got a set. Once you've done your bit's we need to meet up again dude... Want to see it with it all done!

[Mochachino]

We can get some jap pics :)

Just need to get the odd bit resprayed for it to be perfect.

Front nearside damper also needs replacing.

[Mochachino]

Got the wheels on yesterday, car looks much better. Also deironized the car, on the rear it looked like someone had thrown purple paint all over it. Following this I have clayed both sides of the car, used tar remover, followed by a polish and wax, and it looks so much better now. Front badge broke, which was a fake one, so I've removed that to put the genuine faded one back on. Just need to clay the rear bumper, boot, roof and bonnet.

Its currently raining so no pics with the dslr, but I may get a couple with my phone.

Just done the ultimate chav mod and bought a sticker for god sake, basically one of these from Japan:

[blackie_2k5]

nice wheels, will make it look "fresh" :D

[Mochachino]

Does look alot more fresh!

I went through a phase of wanting a carbon bonnet, but ive gone off the idea again lol if I got one I would probably have it sprayed white but benefit from it being abit lighter. I will be getting this one resprayed though, there a few stone chips that have some surface rust on now :n:

The front Honda badge is quite faded now, so Ive ordered some Black Stick on ones, which should look alot cleaner, fresher and wont be sticking out as much as the chunky OEM one above.

[Prickle]

Do they still have the little text on?

[TomT]

Old plate looked better imo, but tbh I hate 3/4 plates.

[Mochachino]

Do they still have the little text on?

No why?

Old plate looked better imo, but tbh I hate 3/4 plates.

I much prefer the 3/4 on my car in particular, the import plate loks like a buck tooth in comparison now!

[Frankay]

New number plate looks so much better, Car looks cleaner!

[Mochachino]

New number plate looks so much better, Car looks cleaner!

Yeh it looks alot more in place than the big square one which sticks out!

Thanks for the comment.

[Hopcraft]

Love tegs, love 3/4 plates, good work.

[Ryanoo]

New number plate looks so much better, Car looks cleaner!

Car looks cleaner from a new plate? Woah, why buy machine polishers, wash or wax.

Looks nice and tbh the smaller plate looks a lot better than the motorbike one.
Isit an import bw?

UKDM..

Cheers mate I agree. Thats a standard import size numberplate btw not a motorbike one, think theyre smaller. Yeh its a japanese import, came to England in 2007 or 2008 forget which!

UKDM..

UKs are growing on me!

Nah limited edition uk version.

Its a LAD motorsport one with 300bhp from helium tyres.

Got my Honda Sticker through today and also I had to get some white carbon wrap, to stick the sticker onto to stick to the car. I wasn't keen on the idea, but I couldn't find any plain white vinyl unless I bought a whole sun strip. Anyway, Mounted the H sticker tot he vinyl and it looks good!

Will stick it to replace the standard faded Honda badge this weekend. Will hopefully look alot more flush, cleaner and not as in your face as the standard one.

[Mochachino]

Just ordered NGK Iridium IX Spark plugs, Magnecor HT leads and a new Distributor cap and rotor arm. hopefully this will sort out a misfire im suffering from which started in the wet weather!

[Mochachino]

Right after waiting a month my Magnecor leads have finally arrived! Apparently a problem at the factory. Handmade and tested by some woman called Julie. My faiths in her.

So now my HT Leads, Spark plugs and Dizzy have a arrived I can fit them. The misfire hasn't been so bad lately but I will fit them all anyway.
