Now then guys and girls. (Prepare for a long winded read )
After a while of debating wether or not to sell my dc2 i finally gave up the keys and bought myself something a little different. I was actually in line to buy a jdm ep3, which i was completley gutted about when my mate decided to keep it until he is back from duty in afghan (but hey ho), i will have to wait till october until i get another shot a buying it.
When the sale of the ep3 fell through i still had it in my head that i wanted to change car. So after have a think about what i wanted i came across the ek9, which i had fell in love with a few years back, but was unable to insure it, but one quick phone call to the insurance changed that straight away. So thats when I came across one that duncan from fastjapcars.com had one for sale and i knew i had to have it. Even though it was quite a journey to get it, i knew him off ek9.org and knew he was a reputable seller. So after having a few phone calls with him and bombarding him with pm's, we agreed a day that i could come down and view it.
Even though it is down on power and torque compared to the teg, i think it makes up for it where the '9' is lighter.
Car is standard as it now apart from:twisted:
Fujitsubo RMO1A Cat Back Exhaust
Spoon Resevoir Socks
Skunk2 Rad Cap
Momo Race Steering Wheel
Apline Tweeters mounted in the doors
Future Plans:
Standard Steering Wheel
Fast Road Set Up
Spoon SW388 Wheels (i know just a jdm branded version of rota slipsteams, but i want jdm points)
Lower Seat Rails (dc2) or buddyclub)
Fresh Front and Rear 'H' Emblems
Dyno Run to get an i dea of fiigures
Anyway i will stop rambling on now and show you some pics:
Thanks for reading, all comments welcome and more pics will be put up when she has had a good detailing.
