Just thought I would post a few snaps I got from the Honda meet yesterday at South Mimms.

















Kinda annoyed with the quality of photo i'm getting with the 18-55mm IS lens im using on my canon 400D. I did switch over to my 50mm lens and even gave my 75-300mm lens a go, and the quality of those lenses were soo much better.

I think I need some filters soon.

Like how I started a big arguement about Vtec and shit.

I won't be posting on here anymore, kinda pointless at times.

Thanks for the info Nathan, yeah I understand where you are coming from. But in regards to running it into the ground I ment to keep to for about a year then to a k20 swap. I don't mind "wasting" 100 quid on an intake and even if I got a D16Y8 head it wouldn't be a waste in my eyes since I can still use it.

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

Wouldn't be the way I do it, but nevermind.

Keep us posted!

How would you go about getting power without an engine swap? This engine has done 90k and sounds sweet as a nut and runs really well. Whats the point in ripping it out. May as run it into the ground and then swap it.

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

Waste of money on such a terrible engine IMO, but hey it's your car.

Why not just drop in a B16 though? Insurance reasons?

I don't see it as a waste, as it works on all D15's and D16's. I'm doing a vtec head swap in the future, maybe even a turbo. This intake should be better as the positioning is better, over the Top mount throttle body that I have at the moment.

I've been told these engines have very good internals. But plan is to keep this car for a while and could easily work my way to a k20 swap.

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

Nice Civic. Don't waste money on engine mods though. The D16Y7 only puts out around 105hp IIRC, and won't give much due to being a SOHC non-vtec unless you go the FI route and throw money at it.

B16 swap would cost no more than £500 for everything, and even stock will give you 160hp+ to play with.

Already throwing money at it.

Bought a Skunk2 inlet which is universal throughout the D15-D16 range. I'm going to go for a mini me Vtec head swap. Other than that only mani and exhaust modding. Lows and small exterior mods.

Quote from R3DMAN :

adam, are you on corsasport?

Yeah, http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=619895

But my main progress thread is on Allcorsa.co.uk.

Snow from last year, December. Morettes FTW. Yes I am a chav.

Hey guys got battlefield 3 with my graphics card on the weekend.

Can't stop playing it, kinda amazed how far it's come since I played beta *I say played more like lagged through the beta*

My ID is TwinFlow,

Hope some of you guys add me :P

£200+ with postage

Also got this free:

Leucat why you no wake up Troy. We needed him to complete the last hour of MoE

Hehe Dennis you were driving like a monster, the first time you blasted past me was at the the final chicane. Problem was I was still learning that last bit, sorry as I did go slow and held you up a bit, You then beeped me and I thought I had pissed you off lol.

Each time you came to lap me after I tried to make sure I got out of your way, you pretty much scared me off the road

Quote from GFresh :

Any confirmation on whether or not the F1 channel will be available on VM?

I've read on some blogs that it should be coming to VM. But the cost's are just crazy. £22-£25 a month for skysports 1-2-3-4 then how much more for the sky f1 channel.

I really do hate what's happened. If it's cheaper I may think about it otherwise I will just have to put up with BBC meh.

Gotta say thanks for Fuse for asking me to come back to LFS to help Concept out.

Having not played LFS for over 6 months I was stilling learning the feel for the car during the stints :P 6 hours later i've still not slept since Friday/Saturday Morning, only caught a Leucat*nap* for 1 hour. :P

But have to say I loved every second in the car. Even if we didn't really battle with anyone and lost a lot of time due to mistakes or bad luck, it was still a brilliant event as always.

Massive thanks to all the admin and an even bigger thanks to the commentators for some really good commentary and some good laughs.

Got a 50mm F1.8 lens today for my 400D.

Still learning, but had to take a photo of my families cat, that means i'm good at photography doesn't it .



And one for Christmas.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

lovely corsa b needs more lows though some sort of sideskirts or something

Cheers S14D. It's already at a height i'm happy with. The splitter scrapes on most speed bumps. Handling is good at the height as well.

Side skirts will be done in the new year. Proper GSI ones not some after market rubbish

Sounds great, slight bit of flame when you rev'd it. How the hell is that so cheap lol Seems perfectly good and sounds great

Morettes Yo!



Flame away!

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Adam mate ignore them as I'm sure you've already done. Never been in trouble for mine plus passing an MOT = fine.

Don't worry, i've already ignored the previous posts. Those plates have been through an MOT as well and they passed fine lol.

Cheers for anyone who posted a positive comment

Blueflame's Flaming Rant of bullsh*t

LMAO, so much rant over a piece of metal. How do you know I have a red rocker cover!? :clapclap:

Reading that post made me lol so much.

Quote from Jakg :

It's readable by ANPR (so not likely to get pulled over all the time), but it's still not reflective so not legal (if it's a metal pressed plate).

You can have 3D plates though (I think... mine are "normal" UK plates, but the text is also raised).

These do come with a reflective coating, the guy I bought them off said they are 100% road legal and MOT compliant.

Like I said i'm only having these on for show...

Quote from BlueFlame :

No it isn't.

Oh I CBA with this.. you did the same when S14 D put pressed plates on his car.

All I'm bothered with is if the ANPR can read it.. that way I don't get stopped, there for i'm not doing anything illegal in my eyes.
Besides i'm changing them anyway for normal plates and just using these for shows etc.. ****ing internet police..

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Not german!

Also if it's not already then red top it and get wots and wots of powah.

I wasn't aware that pressed plates were only for German cars... Opel/Vauxhall

Yeah I wish it had a c20xe in it... Maybe at a later date. More than likely I will give it a 1.6.

Quote from Bawbag :

Super clean, I like it.

Thanks Bawbag.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

If that's a pressed plate I will slap you. Other than that, noice!

What's wrong with the pressed plate? It's all legal etc.. But thanks.

Some of the latest shots of my car.
