awesome dude....i love that.... thats exactly the sort of FC i want next!
lol a \'few\' mods lol :D
Looks like it might be a bit on the brisk side ;)
i want them rear lights.................... thats a very nice fc
nice FC ! are those vert wheels? what size are they?
i\'m thinking of putting vert wheels on my T2, but the\'re 15" and i want see what they will look like before buying some!
You wont be dissapointed with the cabriolet wheels - they are very cool, just make sure they are in good condition :wave
Mmmmmmmmmmmmm nice. Fastest colour too ;)
You do realise its not black?
Looks like the Infini III blue to me.
Doh !!!! okey its the second fastest then :)
Thanks for the comments lads, Ill keep you posted when I get a good root around it and get it on the road,cant wait to see what its driving like.
The wheels are 16 inch BBS and the center caps were in a bag under the seat..
The colour is dark blue,the floor and inside boot are green and it says black on the paperwork.... when I polished up the rear wing it left green stuff on the cloth too even though it looks blue.
Does anyone have a guess of what bhp it might be with the mods ?
Forgot about the KnightSports 270 kph speedo...
Update...
I finally got the car on the road,feels faster than my old UK FC and my JDM FD.My diff is grinding and when I drive hard it pulls left and right, feels like a 2way needing repair.. I had the car dyno\'d last week and its droping boost at 4k rpm, may be the actuator ? It got 222 bhp and 231 torqs at 0.9 , I hope that when the diff is fixed and the boost problem is sorted it might make more.The power comes in early and seems to last forever even with the boost problem.Handles like a go cart on the back roads but doesnt like the bumpy bits..I used Maxol e5 and octane booster and the dyno guys said it was fueling well and safe...
looks like a nice toy :D

I saw some nice stock cabriolet rims, silver lip with a gold centre, looked fab lol :D I might do that to my coupe rims when I get them refurbed :) that is one groovy FC, although not as mad as the FC I was offered to buy when I was looking for mine lol
Quote from: pompey18;491456i want them rear lights.................... thats a very nice fc
Can get you them lights... All LEDs but there not cheap!!!
Very nice looking car mate, with some trick bits:Laugh
looking at modding my rear lights so that they are a bit darker and the round lights more pronounced. Thats a nice car and will clean up really well. looks like they have the wider arches on the front so adds about another 30mm. personally vert wheels are nice but looks better in the same 17" if you can get some, thats if you go down that style.
A few £\'s worth of extras there so be good to see it all running correctly and really see what BHP it produces. They are 200 standard so what with an after market exhaust and intake theres the 220. See what ECU its got, that might tell you a thing or two.
Was that 220 at the wheels?

Those wheels you have described would be mine!!! lol lol
Quote from: Brett;500513Was that 220 at the wheels?
No @ the Fly...
Dont trust the rollers he was on tbh either...
Mate of mine has a 195bhp civic type r and it made 166 on the same day John did his run... Every other rollers said 195...
Went for a spin in this with John and its well over 250bhp... especially with the boost its running... Nice car tho and will clean up well...

and very smart there were to :D
i\'m new here but that is a niiice FC mate.
hay 2qk4u,love your car,cant wait to see it in the flesh,i am sure we will have a lot to talk about,they are geting so pop over here in Ireland,well ware mate,( fc3s ) bump for IRC,
Thanks for the comments lads, Ive just sorted a garage with a lift so Ill get my diff out soon and get it repaired and Ill put the decat pipe in while im under there... dont know much about boost issues so hope its nothing serious.Once I get everything sorted Ill dyno it again (probably on a different dyno).
Watch this space......
what ecu are you running?
Quote from: antnicuk;501726what ecu are you running?
Dont know, must have a look... is it behind the panel on the left ?
yes, a lot of jap FC\'s run a modified stock ecu rather than an aftermarket one. If you want to be able to map it, then you will need a standalone ecu
Been a while since I posted here so heres a little update - I got the 1.5 way diff reconditioned and sorted a couple of other bits before returning to the same dyno. got 256bhp this time but as stated above we think its not a true reading.
Anyway I had the car around the track in November and it handles very well and pulls well through the gears,Im very happy with it..
awesome, could you give us some info on the bucket seat? Currently looking for one but i hear its a bitch to find ones that fit!

Car looks good, could do with some dish and some neg camber though :P
nice.. i used to like the wangan style spoiler but the pic above looks bit too big =(
i got same headlight cover lol
Looks awesome man! How the hell did you get stickers to go on the glove box?? I\'ve been wanting some stickers on it for ages but because of the crap leather style grooves the air gets under them and nothing sticks down.. :(

The stickers were put on in Japan, might be the heat making them stick, I removed a couple of them from the interior.
