EG4, 50 Shades of White

[karlj]

So here she is in all her glory

First mod

Gone

Well the other side fell off in my hand so would just removed them

 

[karlj]

I don't have any before and after pictures but the interior was skanky

The previous owner used it to taxi her dog around so the seats and carpets were furry and there was an odd poo smell.

Some vacuuming and odour eater sorted that

 

[karlj]

Oh and it's been washed since the pictures so it doesn't look so grey now

 

[McMicra]

Keeping it for long karl? could make it a nice little track car, and the amount of civic parts kicking about I don't think it be that expensive

 

[Huggy444]

Lots of bolt on's

Yeah going to keep this one going to look into doing a manual conversion.

Lots of bolt on's

Shame they're expensive

 

[Belly93]

whats the spec on it?

 

[karlj]

Um it's a 1.5 auto civic lol

 

[Belly93]

shouldnt be to hard to do a conversion should it?

 

[karlj]

whats the spec on it?

Spec is d15b2 auto

shouldnt be to hard to do a conversion should it?

Nah there's a kit on ebay for £255 and loads of how to's online, but for the moment I'm liking the auto

 

[Belly93]

ive often fancied an auto for daily use lol

 

[Enuo]

Keep it stock, just keep it from getting any worse. Focus on the micra

...So no Charlie at JAE?

 

[karlj]

No

 

[McMicra]

but civic is good enough .

Its an AUTO!

Need some rota grids in white

 

[karlj]

I've got the wheels I want for it, just need to put tyres on them

Being an auto isn't a bad thing

 

[McMicra]

True, I agree just get it all clean some wheels and springs and leave it at that, don't even bother changing it to manual.

Get Charlie back on the road

 

[karlj]

We'll see, I want a "toy" and so far the civic is ticking the boxes.

Charlie is going back to semi standard and having a full refurb

 

[h701micra]

Well well well. Karls gone all vtec on us
As long as Charlie tops the list we'll let you off
I do like that shape civic though. Fairly good at autotests
And if you get bored of it one day. Get it converted to manual and put the engine in charlie

 

[karlj]

I have an engine for Charlie almost lol

Only plans for the moment are sort dents, shoddy paint work and run the carpet through the wash a couple of times.

Then whatever happens after that is a bonus

 

[h701micra]

Turbo

 

[karlj]

I'd be lying if I said I didn't think that
