Still sitting on the fence WRT a body kit & spoiler. Maybe, at the same time that I decide on a turbo

Thanks! If Koni, then thinking of FSDs. Quote:

Could you share the costs please.

Tyres were 12Kish each
Wheels were in the low thirties
Mugen was 4k + painting charges Quote:

I'll keep enhancing her from time to time. The beauty of the Civic is the splendid after-market support she has. Quote:

That would be Parrys with the car. Quote:
Thanks for the RD link, looking for a similar upgrade on the Corolla in a couple of months.

Doubt you need an RD for the Corolla; it has such good driveability in stock form itself! Quote:

Useful advice, appreciated. Quote:

Hopefully soon on the updated RD. We had a dyno on the older RD piggyback (IIRC, 7 BHP average gain from multiple runs). |
