Honda City SX8 Build Thread ::rohaansaeed::

[mega_mind]

Have a VERY busy schedule these days, so here's the only picture I have with the Ducktail Spoiler visible.

yr ma to smja tha ya end tak level pa hota ho ga . .i thnk u get my point . . .name jo ducktail ha . . .

[rohaansaeed]

btw i noticed tints on side glasses y no tint on the rear windscreen?

Yeah the side one's are temporary, saving up for 3M tints.
About the rear tint, I'm personally against them, firstly because the local cheap paper blurrs the vision and secondly with the new paint and all I have to drive carefully, driving without a rear tint is comfortable, you always have an idea what's behind you, especially in the case of bikers.

Haha no it's just over the trunk, more commonly known as 'lip' spoiler over here, although this is somewhat higher than the usual one's.

hi rohaansaeed i am from Philippines.

a friend of mine just happen to see you post regarding your sx8.

it's nice to see fellow SX8 from other countries by the way we have sx8 group here in the Philippines and we have our own forum too.

You guys can join us too if you want and join our discussions.

our website is SX8 Army

here's the picture of my car

expect some post from my friends.

by the way i am interested on the coilovers.

do you have any idea what are the available coilover that would fit the SX8 because all we know is that only hotbits have coilovers for our SX8.

nice build by the way.

thanks.

Installed the Tanabe Sustec Pro today, car rides so much better now, has a better stance and tons of grip compared to the sluggish stock suspension. I really recommend the Tanabe Sustec Pro to anyone whose switching to coilovers.

Adjusted them so there's hardly a 2 finger gap up front while there's a nice 3 finger gap at the back.

Hello there! I am also from the Philippines. vh3r is our most high talented leader. I am also a proud member of SX8 Army which basically comprises all SX8 Honda City 1997-2002(3) members here.

I noticed the condition of the coilovers, is it 2nd hand and is it readily available in your country? I hope to hear from you soon.

Welcome to Pakwheels! Great to see International members over this thread, it's an honor

Yes the coilovers are used previously but most of the wear is just cosmetic, they've been performing great so far.

I dont think many manufacturers produce coilovers for our cars, but the one's off EG or EF Honda Civics can fit, all you need to do is remove the coilover's top cap and replace it with the stock strut's top cap before installing. Only the bottom mount has to be the same as SX8 City's, top one doesn't matter much.

The one's I got are Tein SS.

[vh3r]

wow thats a good idea.

we might check out 2nd hand tein here and try it on our sx8.

thank for the info.
