Hmmm... this is when I'm pleased to remember my rover is a civic in all but name and engine... |

A few weeks ago I was pretty much set on buying a Rover 420D, slamming it on Civic coilovers, painting it bright orange and calling it "Britvic"

I know I shouldn't like badboy bonnets, but the one on that Lupo is perfect, in fact the whole of that Lupo is awesome.

Pretty sure the Civic and Rover Collie aren't interchangeable. Shame because I really heart the MB Civic and corresponding Rover 400. So much potential.
Stripped out JDM inspired K20 Powered Rover 400?

It sounds like a rather good idea to me I didn't need an economical car, and wanted to go fast so it didn't fit into the plan. One to save for later though. |

Stripped out JDM inspired K20 Powered Rover 400? I checked under a few and they definitley looked the same. I've done some research and you are of course correct. EG/EK Civic coilovers fit. Because of different shock lengths the rear will be automatically 1" lower even at its highest. Interestingly the M series Civic was called the Honda Domani in Japan. Any way Dam You Stealthstylz cos now I want one really bad! |
