Cheers Veirty :)

OAP's are crazy in fairness, some literally but even the sane ones still loose all sense of direction and awareness.
Being shown the finger by an OAP is pretty shocking to be fair lol

I wish that was the case in this area, I can handle OAP's but Teenagers can be little swines lol

Small little update for everyone

I went to ABP Motorsport near Crewe yesterday to have a Piper Manifold & 200 Cell Sports CAT fitted :)
The car also had a full service too which included Oil, Filter, Plugs, Brake Fluid change, Gear Oil Change and they also fitted 4 new tyres (Yokohoma Prada Spec 2's). They used Energy suspension inserts when fitting the manifold to allow it to flex when accelerating and they also fitted a O2 simulator to stop any lights appearing on the dashboard.

Car feels much smoother now when accelerating and sounds amazing (probably too loud though)
Not sure what power its putting out now but I would expect it to be 220bhp, feels a lot quicker now but needs the brakes sorting next because they are well and truely finished. Needs Discs & Pads all round but I keep getting tempted by the Stoptech big brake conversions so they might be added to my shopping list at some point :)

Here's a few pics I took yesterday, excuse the dust on the car it was gleaming when I set out lol

Your both spot on lads it does need to go! :)
I could do with buying a new Type R badge too because the red "R" is looking a bit tatty now, I might possibly buy a set of the newer badges from the FN2 Civic to make it look a little different

I also need an exhaust bung because its too loud for daily driving atm :mrgreen:
