yeah... probably oh well stiff setup she goes! roll guards and a bit of stretched tyres (really was trying to avoid that but now seems inevitable)

ahahah exactly. lol. aslong as a pebble doesn't feel like a mountain then worth it for how schmick it will look!!! a bit of stretch is fine as long as rims look sweeeeet. which these do!!! great build. looks like a really clean and tidy gen 3. look forward to seeing it at next meet!

Great idea Jack.

Get a daily and then there isn't as much pressure to finish on a date. Considering what your thunking!!!

Can you please get an old SickVic?

[Jack_Keaka]

Dan if I don't have a finish goal I'll never get it done.
What's an old sickvic? I was thinking of getting an early model VW beetle maybe.but who knows, I'll probably just find something for cheap and that will do. As long as I can tinker with it.

Then when your done with the civic, strip it and turn it into a dedicated track car!

[Jack_Keaka]

Lol I clicked that link and a 575 marinello came up. Yeah I'll get one of those!
But yeah me and Simon have discussed getting a civic. I think they're awesome and would make for a fucking great track car.
However one of my mates might be getting one and I don't want the same car as him again. If he doesn't get one then it's back on the cards.

Buy a gen1...!!!

Good idea Jack and it is working out nicely for me and the new wheels look awesome and I can't wait to see them with some rubber on

[Jack_Keaka]

so I've done a fair bit of the Resomat install. it was amazing that i got so much done today after Daniel talked my ear off
all 4 door cards, under rear seat & parcel tray. i still want to do inside the doors and the floor pans. then if there is any left over the boot.
but this is how i did the door cards: (i get a brilliant thud from the door now. and i have already noticed its effects. really look forward to putting the rest on in a few weeks)

[HoFF]

It's not really ment for the door card is it Jack?

[Jack_Keaka]

not really but:
A) i have no fucking idea what I'm doing
B) saw a guy on Legacy GT do it
C) seems to work fine
D) is neater and easier to do and doesnt make it difficult to get at any wiring that might need to be don't in the future.

so i say i have done it the better way.

Haha fair enough. You should do inside and out of the door as well. You will have the quietest gen3 cabin in the world.

well as i said, i still want to do inside the door. like where the glass slides down. doors will be heavy after that! i think what will make the most significant change after what i have done already is the floor pans
