Moved to the dark side (diesel)

tuccy29 · 28th October 2012, 17:21

After writing off my 1.4 petrol civic I have bought a 2.2 diesel civic today.

Just telling everyone that i'm staying on the forum and will now be after info on the dirty diesels now

What an engine though!

Same colour as my old one, just needs to look like it now so will spending a bit on FRS, alloys etcc..

Get it on Wednesday night, can't wait to get back to modding again!

Cheers

You will find a remarkable difference in engine power & torque, up from 100 bhp to 140 bhp if in standard map, you won't regret it, you will have The Power Of Dreams

Nah we went to look at it but something wasnt right about it, Had bald tyres (must have been under 1mm) and alot of other things weren't right with it.

Nice one mate did you salvage any mods from the old car?

Jeza · 28th October 2012, 19:12

At least its still Jap and it's a Civic.
