Pics to come. here are some more teasers. Pics of the coil overs going in. Skunk 2 10k kilogram springs. From what im told civics are 8k and tegs are 10k. So I went for teg. Dont mind the money. Im keeping it in the box with the coil overs so I dont spend it. The other two pics are my tuning hardware/software. I have crome pro dealer edition. Ostrich, hulog, burn1, and LC-1 wideband. The Laptop is a Compaq presario R3200 with a athlon xp-m 2800 w/ 768mb of ram. DVD-rw 15.4 inch screen. It weighs in at 8.9 lbs I think? Picked it up local from craigslist for $210. Im a mac person so I have no clue what the 2800 means. It tears up crome and is fast enough for me to post here so im happy. Im not gonna post any "I want to do's" in this thread just what IS being done.

Ask a woman, I'm right. Also, since you'd have to ask a woman anyways, I don't think it really matters.

Nice update, OP. 8)

So here are some updates and pics i never got around to posting. These pics are of the car when it had the chopped coils.

Here is the new wheel. I saw someone already did one in the last few days so now im pissed :evil: . Was out at the yard today with a friend and couldnt pass it up. Also found this goodie. I saw someone on here hack it up and make a console out of it.


EDIT: I found the person that modded the DC console. its noahrexion and you can see some great pics of it in the "DA2 -> EE, I did know it was that easy " thread I though it was a DA so i guess it will be a first!

looks good so far.
i love those rims too.

White&Nerdy

I decided when I first got the car (a year ago) that I want an Si 3-spoke wheel at some point. Will go well with the CRX alloys this summer.

Very nice!

skinny

Im looking into getting the rims powder coated pink. Anyone that was at the meet, im going for the color of my iphone case. If they stay white there going on the DA. Where I hold the steering wheel the stock one just didnt work. with the 3 spoke I can hold it between the middle and left spoke. I picked mine up from a LX. There was Si looking ones but they all had cruise controls on them and I didnt want to hunt down a block off plate.

nice 4wd! i like those rims alot!

skinny

Well thanks. the rims came with the car and although I dont like them, they do give personality to the car. I have been told by alot of people the rims make the wagon

they do.
but don't do pink .

I like the wheels personally. They look really good on the car.

I had a set of 17s in that style, but they were just too big for my wagon imo. I like 15s and 16s best on the ef's.

skinny

I have never liked rims overs 15's. There wrapped in faulkens right now and they are not wet weather tires. Soon as I slap some kuhmos on i will be much happier.

skinny

So its been awhile since i got something for the wagon. Saw this on ebay for $3 or $5 so i snatched it with buy now! My wagon didnt come with one and it really made me mad.

So the UPS guy showed up a day early with this. Getting closer to tuning time. I think the ECU and getting it chipped is the biggest part of the undertaking.

Props go out to Craig, Or blundell of Moates.net. the work looks top notch and I am very pleased with the results.

Oh and the ECU is a P08, JDM D15B SOHC Vtec. Im going to use the Vtec output to control something. Maybe a shift light so I can keep out of the loud pedal while in town. Maybe have it switch on nitrous above a certain rpm. With a relay I could have it do almost anything. Enough of that for now.


Edit, Sorry about the pics. the blackberry pearl isnt the best camera. Also this ended up costing me $55.70. $25 for the chipping, $16 for the chip kit for the jdm ecu, and $14.70 for 3 day shipping with UPS. If your looking for a good deal and great work hit up moates.net!!!!
