Used to follow your build thread on club itr! Big inspiration for my EK and I’m sure many others. Just wondering how you mounted the DC2 intake. Does the bottom half line up and just bolt on same as DC2?
The mount on the drivers side of the airbox lines up with a mounting point on the chassis leg and sits just forward of the gearbox. I have an intake tube that comes from the front lower grill and then around to the bottom of the airbox. I use the DC2 intake arm also instead of the EK arm.
iwearmoccos ahh I see. I have the complete DC2 intake arm and airbox but will have to remount properly.. also did you make a hole for the IAT in the intake arm?
Nice EK hatch! What suspension set up are you running (spring rates, bars (if any), alignment settings)? Nice touch on the reliability bits! EDIT: Sorry, commented too early, thanks for sharing your car's specifications.
The sunroof lining sits lower than the standard lining, so it has been removed. I think you would be able to fit a standard (non sunroof) liner in with this cage.
Was actually planning on doing a video like this on the s2000 once I got the blog back up to date as a bit of a 'this is where we are at in 2020 then yesterday happened haha
I had a similar thought and obviously we've got a bit of time to do these things at the moment. My only suggestion is to take notes before filming, I missed a few things that I wouldn't have if I had it written down.

Car looks better on these wheels and tyres than others! :P

@@philz417 yep, just drill a hole through the arm at the same spot it is on the stock EK arm.
Always liked civics. Almost as good as MX-5's. :-)

Hey bud - do you still have the roof lining in with that cage?
The sunroof lining sits lower than the standard lining, so it has been removed. I think you would be able to fit a standard (non sunroof) liner in with this cage.
