Powelly's 89 Civic DX

make ik look sik as fuk and maintain drivability

^ That....

I just wanna mint little daily cus,

Any way just got back from Bradford, got a whole new interior, some other bits n bobs and a full duel carb set up.... Nice....

gunna get it all fitted tomorrow..

MOT time today, get it motted, taxed and on with fitting the interior later.

So Me and Ezz got busy today and lowered the DX,



I wish



Heres the end results - Cus has got some better snaps to upload later,

the focus on my lens has gone really shite since i dropped it so there not the best.

Thanks mate there cracking... your getting good at this now Cus..The DX is looking mint...

Looks 100 times better!
is that as low the back goes? looks quite high in comparison to the front

It does, however will let the shocks settle a bit then cut the back springs a bit...

looks amazing in reality, the pics dont do it justice (not that there bad pics, there sick)

lovong this, shame I didn't make it over in time to help

I am very happy with this result ......(Great pics, again best seen in person)

Will drop the back some more (bit of tuckage i think)

No worries Ned only 24 hours till see this in person.....

Ok so after driving around in the DX a bit, the handling is sharper and more responsive, however this has had a dramatic effect on my turning circle (which doesn't bother me that much) and also I have learned the my car is now allergic to any form of lump, hump or bump....

It also hates Merry Hill.....the look on peoples faces as I scraped over the speed bump...oooooooooooo....Fark it i still want to get it lower ...

Update on the audio front, Maplin sold me a set of 80 wts door speakers fitted nicely...(£6) and Im just spraying up the washer arms..

sounds like your on the right track, haha

jay i can get a GTI lip of a golf you interested?

does anyone know if it is the same as a vr6 one?

im not sure of the fitment tbh it scapes already gettin up my drive

vr6 is deeper...but only just

ill have to see how it looks on my car, Cus im about tomorrow mate if ya wanna meet up and see what it looks like??

Any way Ive had some Brigstone Tyres fitted on the front 175's no more arch rub, 175, 60 r14's matching pair....slightly stretched but look great...ive also diy arch roll - Hamered them in slightly so no more rubbing on the arches...but the mud flaps scrape ...

mud flap scape - win
ive been looking into getting an arch roller, bit pricey though

we were talkin about getting a few of us and booking a group arch rolling session with arch enemy cus they do group discount

yeah? sounds good
wish i had done it before i had the spray job though

Ive somwhat done a bodge on the one arch with a hammer, but yeah the paint has flicked off a little bit, best off doing before a pint job however they have done it mint on cars without the paing cracking...so im down for that ....

price dependent im up for it
