Lower that bitch first bud !, get some tein super streets, dont bother with those cheap things off ebay, sporty yellow did that and the amount of probs it caused, they broke both his drp links the the anti roll bars, wore town his tyres, and even kept poppin out !
The bloke i got the Civic off has some G-Max springs, Only wants £50 but im skinto frown

Posted By: Civic_Coupe_Sean Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 5th Mar 2008 5:58pm
I think it was only 30mm mate, I'm not sure where it said on the spring front or back it said 30, So i think they are only 30's, But like i said im really happy with that, Its handles 10x better and i like how low it is, Im not going OTT with this car so didn't want it too low lol smile

I dunno, the plate kida looks good, and I know what style you are trying to achieve, but im not sure it really suits the car, not aggressive enough looks wise.

Next on the modding list is tints i think smile
Posted By: StuyMac Re: Civic_Coupe_Sean: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 6th May 2008 6:11pm
Vast imporvement mate - looks ten times better smile

How do you find it handles though? I found that if you ran the rear higher than the front, the EGs have a habit of oversteering due to the engine being mounted so far forward...

Of course, the coupe does have more weight over the rear than the 3 door, so may help compensate.
Really really bumpy but there is no body roll and the steering is dead touchy, You hardly have to turn the wheel lol, Ain't give it none yet, So will let you know what its like at speed round a bend etc etc

I'm tepmted to remove the rear ones again and take one of the ajuster rings off so it will sit another 10mm lower, If you get what i mean ?

Got nuffin to say about my car then don't post in my topic please!!!

If you turn round and say its really really bumpy...and the steering is dead touchy...doesnt really sound that promising..Im not having a go...it just sounded like you were having regrets..
suspension is dead easy to get wrong..and alot of people drop the car on its arse and then regret bitterly doing so..it may look the mtuzntuz..but its a bitch to live with and noisey and every journey becomes hard work..you stop enjoying the car when it impacts on your day to day life..it stops your mates gettin in the back etc etc...

all I was saying was did you fook it up..or are you happy and going to keep it lower than my nans tits...

pmsl, can any thing be that low !

audi's got a point shawn, mostly about your mate's in the back and speed bumps etc etc, but who care's, its your car not a taxi etc etc, as long as you use it for fun, you'll never get bored of it, if the noise of the loud exhaust piss's you off, install a loud system smile
Lol..Ive had seriously modified car in the past..had an Audi S2 pushing nearly 500bhp at one point..and it was the most tempremental Son-of-a-bitch to start, work on and generally live with...I had to put two bottles of additives in every tank to stop it pinking and I struggled to get 120 miles out of a tank of juice...
I spend thousands and thousands on it...and it was SUCH a nightmare i eventually got rid..at a huge loss..whilst it was fun..when it worked and wasnt giving grief..all the extra hassel took such an edge off any enjoyment I got from the car...
be warned there is such a thing as going too far!..if your like the rest of us plebs and only have one car..not three lol!

Hmm reminds me of some one from this site, hmmm who could it be, im sure his name rhyme's with phoey slack, think

hey audi got any pics of the s2 knockin around, wouldn't mind a look at that !
No i love my new set up, Infact i love it that much the back is going lower today lol, When i said the steering is touch i meant it in a good way, Its like the cars on rails haha, Bumpy don't bother me, I'm young dumb and full of cum so, Lower the better laugh

As i said the back will be 100mm today so it will be 100mm al round, The front is perfect smile

grin

Id like to see some of those pics too - bit off topic though, this is for Seans car... wink

Sean - you gonna remove the alloy rings? The bouncing could be because the car is so low, and stiff with the new springs, that it is under damped on the std shocks - springs are great for the looks of the car, but you really need shocks and springs to make a good overall improvement on the handling smile
Yep the alloy rings are coming it off making it another 20mm/30mm on the back smile

When i meant bumpy i didn't mean bouncing all over the place, I meant you feel every little bump in the road , Its dead stiff and don't bounce at all, You push down on the back off the car and the hole car moves at the same time lol, Thats how stiff it is smile
Posted By: StuyMac Re: Civic_Coupe_Sean: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 7th May 2008 10:59am
Just make sure you dont go so low that you take up all the movement in the shock - if its very low, and very stiff it could just be riding on the bump stops and have only them and the tyres for suspension. First time I set my first set of coilovers up mine did this lol
Well the front it 100mm and thats fine, so im hoping the back would be ok on 100mm awell, Only one way of finding out seeyu
Not wanting to hi-jack Shaun thread..in short I dont have any digital ones..might have a few 35mm ones...
If you dont know what an s2 looks like..http://www.audiforums.com/models/s2/images/1992-Audi-S2.jpg
Nice cars them, Well now the back is done and 100mm all round, Back looks 10x better i think, What you think guys, Still might settle abit more i ain't sure lol

Posted By: Civic_Coupe_Sean Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 3:49pm
Thinking about some of these for my wheels:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-Alloy-W...771QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

And sumat like this for my front and back Honda badge:

Posted By: Davey_Martin Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 4:40pm
black badge with gold logo front back and wheels would look spot on i reckon, would go well with that purple! - carbon bonnet and boot would also look great imo, maybe carbon wing mirrors lol
Posted By: Civic_Coupe_Sean Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 4:53pm
Carbon bits ? are you joking, I ain't rich yet haha, Though about it and think im going to do the backs of the badge black and the "H" on the badge the same colour as my car, That goes for both the badges on the car and the center caps on my wheels.Then its still keeping the hole black and purple theme on the go lol.

What you think ?
Posted By: Pomp Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 4:57pm
if you can get it black back with purple H then go for it, it'll sit nicely an go with
the theme aswel.
Posted By: Civic_Coupe_Sean Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 4:58pm
Yeah thats what i mean pompy, Do that on both badges and on some center caps for my alloys smile
Posted By: Davey_Martin Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 5:01pm
aye that sounds good mate, keep savin for the other bits lol
Posted By: Civic_Coupe_Sean Re: Honda Civic Coupe 1.5 LSI - 8th May 2008 5:02pm
Could get sumat likes these and just spray the "H" and the outa bit purple ?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SET-OF-4-HOND...771QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Then just spray the "H" and the outa bit on my front/back badges i got now purple ?
