It's been a while since i posted anything on this thread, so i thought i'd start it again. Here's my 55plate NHB McPremier! Purchased it back in Sept 06 and kept it off road until i could insure it in December that year! Here's the list of mods i had on her:

  • Pioneer AVIC-X1R
  • Pioneer 6-disc changer
  • JDM mats
  • Silvertec front indicator bulbs
  • Silvertec rear indicator bulbs
  • Earthing kit
  • Carbing Lower tie bar
  • S2000 starter button
  • Buddyclub Pro Spec cat back exhaust / Spoon N1 before
  • Buddy club Oil cap
  • Buddy club Radiator cap
  • JDM Union jack badge
  • J's Racing front strut brace with Engine torque damper
  • J's Racing rear strut brace
  • JDM Rear anti-roll bar painted red
  • Removed intake manifold cover

I'm currently thinking along the lines of a Toda exhaust, Spoon springs and some sort of breathing mods. Though keeping it low cost as much as possible! :lol:

The honda ones only £20, you've gotta be a real tight ass to need to find a cheaper one! lol

EDIT: Was a reply to SpaceMonkey but I cant get the hang of the quotes thing :(

After a long time off from modding, i decided to buy a few things. Thanks to Unit-8 I brought myself a

Got a JDM ARB coming soon aswell, he's just waiting for his new one. :)

After the big spend on mods i was due my second service, i knew i needed new tires and pads, so i went to ABP and got it all done there.

I kinda went a little crazy at ABP and ended up buying;

  • Yokohama Parada spec 2's all round
  • Upgraded front disc's to Tarox G88
  • EBC Red stuff front pads
  • Fast-Road setup
The tires feel alot more better in the wet over the pots, the brakes and disc's have made a massive improvement and as for the fast-road setup, thats a mod worth the money!

And I finally got round to painting my calipers! :p Here's a little before and after pic.

Up next AEM CAI...when i have the cash!
 
I can't believe how much its cost me over last few months, though its been well worth it! As for the future of the car, i'm just going to go as far as i possibly can! As we only live once! :twisted:
 
Hey where did you get your exhaust from and how much did you pay for it??

Could you give me a phone number or email address so i could order one please?

Its been a while since i've posted an update on my thread, though here goes!

I got abit tired of the Spoon N1 (yes I know!) and decided to swap for a Buddyclub exhaust of some sort. I liked the sound of the Spec IV, though wasn't to keen on its looks and so the other choices being Spec III or Prospec I had to choose between the two. In the end I decided to go for the Prospec due to finding a decent one in the for sale section and preferred the way it sat at the bumper.

Came up really well with abit of Autosol I must say! :cool:

I then ordered some replacement gaskets and bolts from Unit-8, as the old gaskets were wrecked and bolts we're missing. Due to the Royal mail taking 2 weeks to get the parts to me, I had to sit and wait! :evil:

Here's a comparison against OEM back box and centre section. As you can see there's some difference!
