FD2 conversion finally done

Socali914 · 07-18-2008, 12:53 AM

after 6months and using my hard earned cash,cash advance and charging my car is finally done. only thing i need left is emblems,spacer kit and camber kit. Let me know if you have any questions on rear end conversion since that is the hard part and involves some adjusting/customizing so you dont make the same mistakes i went through. Front is easy bolt on. If you need bodywork and you are in so. cali the guy i went to does awesome jobs and uses some of the best paint.

SiXXSPD · 07-18-2008, 01:07 AM

nice car! i dont recommend wheel spacer since we are using lug nuts. For safety issues.

Socali914 · 07-18-2008, 01:19 AM

well i was thinking of going 10-15mm in the back and 15mm in the front h&r trax with the extended lugs, i think that should be safe.

I need to go change my shorts!

Socali914 · 07-18-2008, 02:39 AM

thanks for the compliments guys, i liked my car but got bored until i started to go meets and meeting other 8th gen guys and made me fall in love with my civic and decided to go for this build. everyone is really friendly compared to other car enthusiasts sites ive joined and had. BEST FORUM by far , makes me enjoy building my car and sharing with others who have the same passion as me.

for the skirts did they drill into the body so that the clips clipped in?

I Vtec, do you? · 07-18-2008, 02:43 AM

The only thing I'd add to your car is the Type R front lip. It makes that front end look even better. Well, that and tint those small, triangle windows in the front (they look light compared to the other windows).

jay3151 · 07-18-2008, 02:46 AM

what lip u talking bout?

Socali914 · 07-18-2008, 02:51 AM

I took off the clips, screwed bottom and front. double sided tape the rest. Slight gap due to that.
