Attended a Cars & Coffee a month ago (which was the day after the last post photos), it was a nice to take the car out on the sunny morning. With the polish and badges freshly fitted it felt like a different car! I do need to adjust the height, in the side shot you can see the front is higher than the rear, that is because the front is already maxed out low on the coilovers (shitty coilovers). At this point in time I don't really want to splurge on new coilovers as I only just bought new track coilovers for my civic. I was thinking of using the coilovers from my Honda Wagon as I dont really drive that at the moment and I wanted to try lifting it, although I'd feel bad in doing so.
Now, I do like the whole old school Recaro Fishnets, I've always wanted a pair for my wagon so I was excited when the EF9 came with one even though it didn't have the original drivers seat. However upon driving this I found my middle to lower back would start hurting which I believe was due to there being no lumbar support at all. As I was going for a near OEM resto on this I decided I'll try get my hands on a EF9 drivers seat.
A mate Ralph just so happened to have a pair of EF9 seats stored away for the past 5+ years, which he happened to be selling as of now so I took them. I can't seem to find a photo of the 2 seats however the passenger seat was MINT, along with the drivers seat minus a tear in the drivers door side bolster which is standard.. Luckily the bolster foam itself wasn't damaged and still had it's stiffness so I decided to throw it in the car anyways as is, now to just sell the Recaro to cover the cost of the new pair of EF9 seats. Obivously in time I'll get this repaired properly by a professional. Definitely comifer though!
And heres a little something I bought for the car, OEM SiR is best! Not sure how I'll feel with this vs my momo, however for $100 I couldn't say no!
