The Official EF Discussion Thread
Man, Sedans are starting to for a soft spot on me.
Still no spark over here. Can't get my S300 to link to my laptop either. I didn't work two years on this for nothin! Lol.

Sup fella's, haven't been on here in a while getting everything situated with the crx, buying new stuff. Just picked up brand new in the box oem bumper lights, and my buddy made me extended top hats for the front/rear. Pretty excited about getting this thing painted/body work pics will be up later.
Back to the spacer conversation...
I took some pics yesterday morning before I set rear camber to stock settings "looks much better in the rear after the pics btw , fill the wells". I also got to test out 5mm spacers which didnt seem to work at all. First putting on the lugs I could only spin about 4 times, and also with the spacer the hubcentric ring just flops around. Hmm Is this odd?
Anyway more pics





P.S. - Sick engine Boosted :O

This weekend we got the rear xmember welded up, and bolted in, the motor is in 100%, but the valve cover hits the hood, (k20a), maybe some k ef heads could chime in. Pulled the dent out of hte core support and mounted the fullrace bar along with rywire tuck radiator. Also got the pedals in with the hush22 setup, MUCH nicer than that suja1 crap imo (and i run suja1). Also mounted the recaro with some gay jdm rail, need to fab up something, this wont do. Got the only kevlar SIR hood in existence on the car and the front end on.
Cw i have some 5mm spacers with the proper studs, (H&r i believe).
It just hit me, I was trying the spacers on the rear, I bet the studs/center ring is taller in the front and the 5mm spacers would work up front. Whats the rule of thumb with lug nuts into studs. Anything less them 6 turns unsafe? Boosted does the h&R 5mm have a lip on it or is it flat?

Doesnt look like that anymore after I adjusted last night
Any 5mm spacer have a centering ring? They seem all flat
I would think flat surface = vibration since nothing to center the wheel but studswill pm boosted

who gives a **** about what other people think. Worry about your own opinion. Youve been driving a civic with a bodykit for years, despite what ive seen people say, it doesnt bother you lol
I think the little stick on moldings on your fenders/quarter arches make the wheel look a bit more sunk in too. Not sure if the body is painted underneath those, but might be worth taking them off to see if it is more to your liking.
All my opinion and taste-
The only thing that throws me off on your car is the mid-spoiler with the simple wheels. If it didn't have that I think you could pull off the simpler wheels better. The other wheels you had were a lot more "flashy", so the flashy spoiler kind of matched.
If you took the center caps out, and got black lugs it would look a lot more "raw/racy" too.

My '*****" was always jdm front and will stay boosted and black, this is he sister, 'princess', a friends crx that has been a long coming project (doesnt post of forums). He had a 90 si that was too much rust so a few years ago he picked up a clean 88 white hf.

Love the Rywire Radiator.. Looks a lot cleaner than some of the competition. (and no Im not swinging, its a F'in Opinion!)
More info on the hush bracket.. I checked them out, looks like an upgraded Suja.. all about the same though.. another 160$ piece of metal. If my suja really sucks im just making my own. They sell a 450$ conversion kit with some nice wilwood pieces, is he running all that?
Either way man.. all that in the lightest EF, what a monster!
EXACTLY!
But to go off white slips comment... Maybe if getting rid of the mid wing isnt an option, how about putting a charge speed or that awesome Live Sports spoiler on.. The Live Sports one with the round edges would probably flow very well with your car. Either way man, car looks great and whatever makes you happy.
