Green/charcoal-ish like the EG in the background of the last pic?

An olive drab with silver pearl -



Spoon yellow?



Midori green? Played out on H-T hatches, but yet to see a sedan in it, or a car in NZ with it.

I think my NZDM EF was sort of that colour, well maybe a little lighter.

Too true, didn't think of that. Think that colour was on the NZDM EG charts too. Maybe I didn't pick the best Midori pic. It's usually greener than that.

Edit - darker Midori pic above.

Was so very close to painting my VR4 this colour. Could look real nice with bronze RG's.

^ I always thought that was more greener...


Right colour has been decided

The cars going to be the chocolate brown from the dc teg I posted. I reckon its far enough away from vinnas colour and I think the cars have enough of a difference in other areas.
Fair enough? let me hear it either way please.


I have some colour samples which are apparently pretty close and hopefully will have the gaurds test painted soon-ish.

gay....

jks, been waiting for this build thread, should look mint after all that work done.
Make sure you dont fuck up any of the paint, i just had my rear bumper painted (out of the same pot) and its a darker colour
What pistons will you be using? also how much power are you going for?

Post up pics of the paint as soon as you have some :wink:
GL with the rest of the build.

Sorry, I read the title as 'Hayce molests a chick'



I'm sure I've read the specs somewhere else, but what's the engine combo?

Sounds like you had colour in the clear... I had that on the last car I had painted... always had to panel paint it, luckily I never needed touchups.

Pistons probably JE's.

haha I do that too but... yeah nevermind.

Motor specs:
eagle rods
Forged pistons (probably JE's unsure of oversizing till I see the state of teh bores)
OEM or acl bearings (non big gaps if acl)
Stock crank/sleeves
Probably arp head studs
Stock cams
Stock valve train
Hondata intake gasket
Usual new pumps/bearings/gaskits/balancing
DVM flywheel
~2000 pound pressure plate
Full face clutch plate
edelbrock inlet + TB
AEM fuel rail/reg
FC 550's
Sticking with the BB T28 but up the boost out of it.
APEXi PowerFC
HKS Cam gears

Eh thats pretty much it just a freshen up with forged internals nothing too crazy.

Looking for 200wkw...

Very nice car, you can't build the engine get a aftermarket inlet mani cam gears etc and only aim for 200kws its wrong. Gt2871r .86 is calling you.

Yeah is a nice colour saw Vinnas in Manukau the other day.

Of course they're common.

haha wonder how long that'd take...

The car was a hand full with its previous setup, im not looking to make 300wkw in a fwd civic, its pointless. Bascally not looking for a lot of power but I want the capability of it for the future. Mayeb later Ill smack a big turbo on it but for now, im just going to strecth the legs of the t28 a bit.

Cheers for your opinion :thumbsup:
Am I to take from that that you think my colour and vinnas is too similar?


Small pityful updates
Got a sketch of the cam cover design today... I kinda what keep it a bit of a secret if I can though, should be funny when done

Picked up new igntion loom and main relay plug. Could of salvaged them but screw it new > fixed.

IMO: fuck who has this and that colour, there will always be someone out there who will have a similar colour., its what people do.... this choco metalic is going to be as controversial as warren shee's samurai gold metalic in a few years time it will be, whats the paint code on hayces civic, i want that colour and the hayce lip!!!!!


however, im surprised you actually gave a toss and asked for opinions on here about a colour choice, im sure you said to me once, fuck what other cunts thought, my colour will be better?! more colourful langauge though.

Go for the chocolate brown on that DC, the white rims set it off nicely! (Read: Bias prick)

Am I the only one that likes that "Olive" coloured EK hatch?

I love the colour on Vinnas car. But I reckon if you go for something of the same sort of pot.. maybe a different pearl and slightly different colour?
