DOD'S Calibra 2L 8V

by DOD » Mon Jan 03, 2011 6:51 pm

Here she is guys managed to do a deal on ma civic ,not as clean as she looks in photo's these were taken before i came home with her she drives perfect though
was a bit disheartend when i went to see it as drivers door has 2/3 rust bubbles,and bonnets
quite badly scratched :doh: rest of car is solid though However thought it would be good to save another one from the scrappys, seen as its only done 53k 8)
the plan is to get it tidied up, get the roof wrapped in carbon fibre,lower it 40mm, decat pipe as its to quiet
for me :shifty: ,change the wheels as not 100% on them ,hopefully al mods will be done for total vauxhall this year
at crail :pray: ,list of jobs to be done right away are......

good valet inside/out
refit front bumper so it lines up properly ,
sort out why the steering is wobbling over 40mph
some better bulbs/hid kit as the lights are s***e :evil:
source jacking cover for drivers side skirt

Looks good, and to be honest I'd leave it alone, it'll be worth more in the long run, especially with low mileage.
Also de-catting it will not pass an MOT on a P reg.

If you want it louder get a stainless exhaust from the cat back.
