Thanks guys, I didnt do it all at once.
I got the car in July and just havent got round to making one of these threads. Smile

kawascream - I am looking forward to trying the bra on too, but have to wait for the bonnet.

91 jdm si vtec - That was my first attempt at the detangoing, still to repair the melted bit. Very Happy

shadowcat - not much to it really. about £5 a can of underseal, I used 4 or 5 spray cans.
Remove the skirts and arch liners. Powerwash the dirt off, mask off the whole car, the stuff gets everywhere!
Sand any rust back to metal. Let the water dry, spray the underseal on and leave overnight to dry.

gaz1426 - there are a few sellers on ebay.com Wink

What type of stuff did you use? Waxoil? Could that be done with one of the big containers of it and a sprayer?

A picture of the strut bar fitted and the carbon fibre Spark plug cover.



And guess what finally arrived.


Currently trying to make adjustments to get it to fit well.
Then I will get some pictures up.

A few updates to this project.

I keep changing things but forget to put updates in here! Very Happy

After my enjoyment of the bonnet coming, I was really disapointed by the fit of it. Sad

After a lot of time adjusting the hinges and the catch, this was as good as I could get it to fit. Shocked







It did look kinda cool with it off! Very Happy


After some communication with the supplier and Seibon it turned out that it was a bad batch of these hoods from Seibon, the curvature of the hood was about 10mm out in the middle, and it was recalled. Sad

Shame as it was a good looking hood off the car.



mmm carbon!

Hopefully I will be ordering a new one when a new batch is made up in the new year.

I also had the car rolling roaded a few months back, and got decent results.

Here's a pic of it on the rollers.


And here is a short video of the power run.

The results were:

204 Bhp at the fly
161 Bhp at the wheels
168 LBf ft torque
36 bhp Drag

Spec: 94 JDM BB4.
Mods: AEM V2, Blueflame exhaust and Decat.
Still top end restricted at the time.

Will try and get the printout scanned in when I find it again.

Next up was a set of K-Sport coilovers.




I also refurbished the standard 15" 7 spoke alloy wheels in Honda graphite grey pearl. These will serve the purpose of winter wheels to save my 17's being ruined by salt and grit.





Centre caps with red H's.


Here are the results of fitting the coilovers and the winter wheels.

Pre adjustment we decided that this would be tooo low! Very Happy
Its not even on the ground and the tyre is gone! Shocked


It was raised a good few mm after that.



And some better pictures.






The carbon petrol cap and spark plug cover have been taken off for winter to keep them A1.

Poppy coral colour coded to match the wheels.



Thanks to Vargna for the JDM Honda Prelude Zebra style floor mats.






Could do with a shampoo or a steam clean. Will look into that after winter. Wink
