So, I purchased a GE6 Jazz 1.4ES in Cerulean Blue with OEM rear roof spolier in March 2009.
I thought the ride height was too high so decided to lower it with some Eibach springs. I had some Eibach on my EP3 Civic Type R and they were really good for my needs so that was my reason to stick with Eibach.
Lowered on Eibach
I was looking around the internet and found J's Racing had a really nice front lip spolier for their Jazz and looked into getting one. However, my research found that their lip spoiler were only for the GE8, and that it would not fit our GE6. I was able to find a supplier in Singapore who did replica ones so went ahead and ordered it. I reckon its the only one in the UK Replica J's Racing front lip spoiler
I have some recaro's from a Evo8 MR320 sitting in the garage since summer but been waiting for the Yen to get better before ordering some Bride RO seat rails to get these installed.
Been waiting and waiting and in the end, decided to just bite the bullet and buy them and got them from Touge Distributions : http://www.tougedistribution.com/
They are currently coming over via container so wont arrive into the country til end of May. Was also looking at the J's Racing front strut bar and should have ordered that at the same time but didnt- but a few weeks later, i remembered one of my 2 year fixed rate bonds were maturing so thought s0d it and ordered the strut bar as well- but this wont arrive in the country til June.
Anyways, as I was on a spending spree, I thought I may as well carry on
Changed the gear knob Before
After
Its the titanium gear knob from a DC2 Integra Type R which the previous owner (HASNIC) had polished to give it the Spoon Titanium blue finish. Its quite a heavy knob but its really transformed the gear change and theres a nice feel to it now- totally love it!
J's Racing Oil cap in blue
J's Racing rad cap
05/05/10 Mugen pedals
Clutch pedal seems slightly off so will see how I get on but most likely redo them when I get a chance. Heel and toe is pretty good fun now
24/7/10 J's Racing front strut bar
Had a bit of a nightmare fitting the strut bar but got there in the end (1.5hrs!!!).
Cornering is definitely more "planted" now so all good. However, my best mate (mechanic) who helped me fit this wasnt that impressed with it and tbh, its not really a point to point strut bar so will see how I get on with this as to whether to keep it or not.
Also tried to fit the recaros but encountered major problems taking the seat off the original (Evo) subframe so will have to wait a couple more weeks til we both have time off work to tackle it again.
6/10/10 Recaro finally in (on Bride rails) 8)
Just took a few pics on my phone so will get better ones when i get a chance but i LOVE them!!
11/10/10 K&N panel filter
I bought the K&N after reading about it from another member on the forum and thought I'd give it a try and managed to get it for £30-£35 after some forum discount on another forum that I'm on.
Slightly more induction noise as expected but not too loud, but have noticed slight more torque.
24/03/11 Purchased some lovely 15" Enkei NT03 from a really nice and knowledgable guy on Civiclife 15x6.5 (i think) ET35 with Toyo T1R 205/50/15
03/11/11 Mugen'd and Spoon'd
Quick pic just taken
New addition are Mugen side skirts and rear lip bumper plus Spoon N1 backbox.
Was never too keen on the N1 on the EP3s but I "needed" a backbox to compliment the Mugen rear lip as it has an exhaust mould so it would look silly imo if there was no exhaust pipe coming out.
The N1 is what I remember it being on an EP3 so not sure if I like that much rumbling/noise and no doubt the missus will complain when we go out in it this weekend. Will get more pics when weather improves.
Few more pics i just taken
