Matt's Milano Red FN2 GT

Hello all.

I'm finding myself visiting the forum more, so I thought I would start a build thread of my current car.

As the title suggests, it's a civic ferio vi-rs. I'm not one for writing long posts, so i'll let the pictures do most of the talking.

A few pictures of my previous cars:

EJ9



EK9



DC5





Current car/project:

A few more pictures of the work I've carried out over the past few months.



























Thanks for looking.

Matt.

haha,. any updates?

Cheers everyone.

This model is rare here in the UK. I only know of one other in the UK and another in Ireland.

There are no more updates as yet. Next I'll be giving the paint work some attention, it's a bit flat.

[FONT=&quot]This mo[/FONT][FONT=&quot]rning I replaced the wheels. I decided to go with some team dynamics pro-race 1.2's, 7x15 et35. A few weeks back I damaged one of my old wheels and finding a replacement was proving to be difficult.[/FONT]
 
This week, a new purchase was made. It's a 2007 model FN2, one local owner from new. Full honda service history, and has only covered 34k miles. I wasn't intending changing my car just yet, but this was a trade in at work and was too good to pass.
The paintwork is still red but does need a little TLC. This will be sorted, and a couple of other bits, over the next couple of weeks.

The last week has been very productive, which means I now have the civic on the road.

Work I've carried out over the last week:

Service- engine oil+filter, transmission fluid (honda MFT), brake and clutch fluids, engine coolant. Also fitted my Mugen radiator cap. I still need to check the valve clearances. Full brake service.
A/C regas and replaced the A/C relay. Replaced the ns door mirror cover and nsr wheel arch trim. New gearstick gaiter(honda OEM)
Mot.
Fitted some Eibach lowering springs and new anti-roll bar links.
I treated myself to some Work Emotion Kiwami wheels-18x7.5 ET38. 6two1 wheel nuts and some new tyres.

There are still a few other little bits to sort out, these issues should be rectified next week.
