        Real shame, looks a very tidy paint job from the pictures.

        That's the problem with upgraded brakes. Nothing would run into the back with a standard set-up.

          That's the only way Civic could catch an S2!

          Sorry to see the accident.

          I spent £2,000 on a respray and the girlfriend scratched it on a gatepost shortly afterwards!

            Real shame. Hope it fixes up easy and without too much cost!

            Last time I saw a civic type-r go for it was at a track day. He turned up with a completely standard car, including road pads, and after about 20 minutes on the track (2 runs out) had killed his rear pads completely and scored the discs.

            D'oh!

            Ck.
            Shocked, exhausted, hosed, bushed, dumped, chipped, mounted, filtered, gauged, packed, intermittantly wiped and braked. I mean broken. Now, about the car...

              After a long discussion with insurance company, it seems that I get little benefit from accident. Exhaust pipe was hit pretty hard , and they will pay me the price of original, which is over 1300€. I think that should be enough to get complete Milltek system..

                I came up behind one this morning on the way to work. I was stuck behind him for 4 miles....doing 40mph in a 60!
                Thats Honda drivers for you. They're all pensioners!

                Shame about your car though. It looked pretty mean with the black tail lights. You need to get the windows tinted next.

                    Mate of mine sold a 911 Carrera 4 and bought a Civic Type R! He never really liked it that much and said it looked like a souped up steam iron.

                    Very accurate description...........
