So I decided to put up a "build" thread for my recently acquired B4. I put it in inverted commas because there's not going to be anything crazy or ground breaking here.

So apart from all the standard B4 goodies this is what has been done to the car:

- Front DBA Street Slotted rotors
- HID Headlights
- Tint
- Automatic Window Winder
- Personalised Plates "CBH22"
- Ezy Flash Pro (running stock tune)
- Vifa 6.5" coax's installed in the front


Future Plans:
- Repaint and Install MRT CAI
- Tune the Ezy Flash
- Rebuild the Bilsteins
- Refresh suspension bushes if needed
- Maybe some STI springs
- Front lip of some sort
- Grill of some sort

Photo from the day after I got it:

The first thing I did to it after I bought it was to cancel the rego on my old car and transfer the plates over to the new one. Wasn't sure how the colour would match but I'm pretty happy with them. Also mounted them a bit higher and spaced them out so they don't rub on the bumper (old ones had been cut lol). You can see the amount of stone chips and things from the amount of highway driving that was done by the previous owner, so fixing all that is on the cards as well.



CBH22 was matched to my old car which was a Honda CB Accord with a H22 conversion. I spent a lot of time, money and effort on it so now it's a bit of a tribute to it. Some pics of it if anyone is interested.







Next on the cards is some replacement rotors for the rear which are on their way. The old ones have some serious shudder. Went with DBA street slotted to match the ones that are already on the front.

Then I've got it booked in with ChipTorque to get a custom tune for the Ezy Flash in a couple of weeks after I install the CAI.

Hi.

[Camb4]

nice blank canvas there.

Yeah. That's what I was aiming for really. I've bought pre modded cars before and spent the next few years trying to fix them up to a standard that I'm happy with.

Ta. Couple more pics. It's in pieces now. Parting out all the bits and scrapping the body.





Ok. That's it. I swear no more honda pics. Might get a chance to install the CAI on the B4 this weekend.

Ta. My mate took the photo's to enter for a calender on an accord forum in the USA. You're looking at miss March I think it was. ;P I tried selling the car whole but people were only interested if it could be roadworthy'd. Which would have taken a lot of work. That and I didn't want it going to someone who would run it into the ground. Much rather just disassemble it myself.

[FR34KO]

Wow good on you/him for gaining that!

Ah, makes plenty of sense! And you're quite likely to make back more money on parts rather than selling it as a whole, i suppose?

Nice ride man!

If you want a front lip
Just go to the wreckers or your local coles shopping center and look for a honda prelude that looks like this


they have perfect lips for our cars and they don't need any modification, i just tech screwed mine straight on haha.
