Yes to all, fukking bang tidy. Cheerz

 

[Lee A]

lmao Kristen wrong Lee. Yes it does vtec in reverse

 

[Blackie]

Sounds great!

 

[Lee A]

Cheers, must fire up a better video now that I've changed my phone. Really like the deep sound it makes, will do until i get a custom system made for the car

 

[sam_9n]

Slow

 

[collyirwin11]

Slow

He told me he beat you by 3 or 4 car lengths.... said the Polo was like a dirty spec in his mirror that the mighty vtec wiped away.

 

[Lee A]

Haha @sam_9n less of it didn't think it would stand a chance against whatevers done to your wee 1.2 polo lol

You never know, when it’s not on it’s base map I might be able to keep up lol

Was very tempted at a saloon one with K24 their at very reasonable prices even an auto would be great they should do some serious worry free miles. K24 block with K20 head and parts seems to be the way Honda tuners are going these days?

 

[Lee A]

Yea good strong bottom end with a k20 head. Generally they change the oil pump also but the k24 has great potential with the right mods. Ecu can be reflashed allowing for a longer vtec and better response of the drive by wire set up. Reflash and exhaust system will be my aim after Christmas. I got lucky with this car being a manual and an estate. Pretty rare over here and becoming rarer on the mainland now

So decided to wrap the centre part of the spoiler in carbon wrap. Happy enough with it and like the look. Would love a carbon bonnet for the car if aim honest but that's down the list of other things first

 

[colin84]

The spoiler looks great, as does the rest of the car. Carbon bonnet though!

 

[Lee A]

Cheers. Yea carbon bonnet probably a silly pipe dream tbh. Still undecided if I should go wheels or reflash next. These are the wheels I'm thinking

Keep them white for a while then maybe change them to bronze. Not sure

 

[Steve750]

Love this

 

[colin84]

Wheels above are nice, but I'd go for a reflash as the car looks good as it sits. What about wrapping the grill surround also?

 

[Lee A]

Yea think if enjoy the reflash more tbh. Grill surround is an option although I kinda of like the chrome and would have to change all of the chrome if I done that I think

 

[collyirwin11]

Keep as is, and reflash. I also would try and get similar colour to what you have in regards to wheels. Dont think this would suit white the same way the Type R did.

 

[Lee A]

Yea Colin a nice silver or graphite would look well in whatever wheel went onto it. Think reflash is the way to go now.

 

[Lee A]

So got some new alloys for the hurst, like the look of them but have my heart set on getting them done bronze like above to contrast the silver. Excuse the dirty car.

next couple of things I'm looking to do before the summer will be an exhaust system and ecu reflash but it's a stark contrast to when I first got it

 

[kristen]

Just lovely shame the owners to lazy to wash her

 

[Lee A]

@kristen be getting the works tomorrow as long as it's dry

 

[Lee A]

Decided to go for a scenic drive earlier before going for dinner in the lobster pot at Strangford. Took this down near bishopscourt race track. Love the look now and think it looks a bit more jdm. Car drives a lot better on these wheels I feel and the steering is noticeably lighter in weight. One oem wheel feels like 2 of these rotas tbh

 

[Lee A]

Ever since Ive owned the car the wing has had a debt in it and I've been putting it off as its a pain to do. Bit the bullet today and done it while drying out the headlight which had filled with water. Sealed it up and back in again. Plan to refurb the lights next and send the wheel to get powdercoated bronze next month.

 

[Lee A]

Front bumper needs resprayed as it has been done poorly by the previous owner and the paint flaked off today when moving the bumper.
