An old Civic EG6

[Trapezius]

Hello

First of all i want to thank my best friend Claus supporting me on my project and Ian of risingsunperformance.nl supporting me with all the nice parts :)

My Name is Ahmet and i live in Nürnberg/Germany. After a long search i found an EG6. It was completely stock. Just an Air Intake was installed. The good thing was the price and that there was almost no rust. The bad thing is that the car had an accident but not that serious. 92 model and 125k km...

Before i began to write about the parts you got to know that we got the god damn TUV. Whe can't install what we want on our cars which really fucks up :mad

The first thing to be done was to slam the car... I bought me a KW V3 Coilover. But i was really shocked after i installed it. The rear system was so high like stock. I installed the stock springs and sold it. Because i liked to drive whit the KW V3 i decided me to buy the same but for another model which is shorter and fits in my EG.

And my fav RIMS BBS RS 001 7x15 Offset 25

At the weekend i decided to install the Coilover to look how slammed it will be.

Was not satisfied but i looked yesterday and it went bit lower.

Then i looked how the bad ass RS will look on the EG...

[Trapezius]

The Phaze EG ist pure porn!!!

[Trapezius]

Now rbwheels.com has one set which i want but they want 380$ shipping. That's fuckin' hard :(

[thaibo]

hey mate,
im also after kw v3 coilovers on my eg9.
what model of kw did u end up buying to get the rears to go lower?
your build reminds me of mine...im also running bbs rs on the eg9 :p

[Trapezius]

You got to buy one for the EE/ED

Then you get low like mine. If you want to go lower then you got to buy shorter Springs.

Greets
Ahmet

[H5G]

dwam their rates must have went up...well where do you live b/c shipping was only like $100 for me...this was last year though

[Trapezius]

I live in Germany :)

[Griffkin]

To much negative camber (rear wheels) on this red one, the rest is fine.

About yours.. good suspension (variant 3 is porn) as you gain on looks and performance handling.

BTW.. the Recaros.. out from an EP3 model no..?

[Trapezius]

No, the seats are from the DC2 Type R :)

I **** both of the EP3 seats :)

[Griffkin]

No, the seats are from the DC2 Type R :)

I **** both of the EP3 seats :)

Hum.. I've asked that beacuse on Portugal you could have the EP3 with the same red Recaros of the Integra, or with the normal black alcantara "bacquets" with the red oval hole on the head rest ;)

[Trapezius]

Hear that for the first time.
Facelift EP3's got red Recaros but not these which i got.

Got a picture of an EP3 from Portugal?

Or from Honda's brochure. Civic 30 years aniversary edition ;)

http://www.civictyper.de/bilder/modelle_ep3/CTR_EP3_2003_30th_003.jpg

I think only 4 of them were sold here.

[thaibo]

Greets
Ahmet

oh ok cool...
is it the whole coilover system for the EE/ED or just the springs?
thanks for the help mate.

[Trapezius]

@Griffkin
Look twice. These are other seats ;)
The seats which you showed are from the 30th...

So do my Seats look in the EP3 (Friends Car)
http://s12b.directupload.net/images/100311/lqdogliz.jpg

@thaibo
The whole system :)

[thaibo]

Thanks heaps for the help trapezius. I'm now gonna get myself a set of variant 3's =D

[Trapezius]

If you got other questions you can ask me. Just add me on ICQ or MSN. I will try to help as much as i can.
