Well I installed my Ground Controls, Tokico struts, slotted rotors, Endless pads, and Neuspeed strut bar, but my 16" Rota C8's have yet to arrive... Tires came (205/40ZR16 Kumhos) but still no wheels. Anyway, here are some pics of my car before and after the coilovers, even though the car is dirty as hell:

before:


after:




and a pic of the engine bay for your amusement:


The header (Chikara) and plug wires (Accel) were on the car when I bought it
But the motor will be outta there before summer replaced by a JDM B18C

that looks great man! How many inches drop was that? I want to drop my car that much but just with lowering springs.

Nice job!

Brewer

Also the car is getting a new paintjob (same color) within the next 2 weeks... I'm shaving all emblems and painting all moldings

Brewer

Well the coilovers can still go down another inch so I'd guess it's about a 2.5 inch drop right now

i noticed you took your mud guards off..i need to replace mine...so i'll buy yours..how much ya want? IM me...

May I suggest Flamenco Black Pearl? It's an O.E Honda color, and that's what I painted my old 1992 black Si whe I had the outside redone. You don't even have to jam it at all - nobody will know the difference

It's the same color as the 99-00 Civic Si and 2000 Integra Type R. It has not nearly as much metallic in it like Grenada Black Pearl - Grnade looks like black cherry in the sunlight.

Your choice though - just a suggestion.

Tom,
What do you mean by "jam it"? I plan on re-painting my coupe (eventually!) and I like FBP.
thanks.

Brewer

he means paint the door jambs and such

94HybridEX

Oh, gotcha. Thanks. I planned on completely stripping it like he did his car anyways, but that is a good point.

Looks good, which tokico shocks are you using?

willyboyK20

yeah and how is the ride?

Looks nice...I was wondering how off ur camber was? When I had GCs on my 98 coupe...i had to invest in front and rear camber kits...cuz it was pretty off...even with an approximate 1.8-2'' drop. Thanks.

Mr. Thunderlips

perfect drop my friend...looks absolutely perfect...i can see slight camber in your front wheels...no biggie...thats a nice drop, once again...

owen_the_soyboy

pretty low there, you might roast your front tires with a 7" wide rim and a 40 series tire while driving with that much camber up front.....
just a FYI ya know...

blackDA

doesn't look too low to me! looks great! what do you think kyle? ( i know there are only a couple of go low boys on this board.....)

Rezon

looks a little low. Not that it looks bad, but you'd be amazed at how well it will ride if you raise it up just a little. What springrates did you get?

BTW, it's going to look sweet with the C8's!

That drop looks sweet man, Props on that. That's gotta be more then 2.5 inches though.

Jet Phi

brcivic411
