Beat from Hong Kong

[cliov6]

Hi,

I just bought my second beat a couple months ago. THe body is nice and the overall condition is good, but the interior needs work and there are some mechanical issues that need to be sorted.

I'm almost done with everything. Only waiting on the new roof, and suspension to arrive.
The car should be completed by this year.

[cliov6]

This is my first beat.

This time the car was completely original when i bought it. The overall condition was pretty good. The interior needed work and there were minor mechanical problems. I liked the look of the Mugen bodykit, so i decided to do the same for the outlook of this car.

[C-Rex]

Nice beats.. Are they hard to get in Hong Kong?

Love all the Mugen bits on your first one

They're not that popular here, so you really have to wait for a good conditioned one to come by, or just import one from japan.
I love the Mugen bodykit on this car. I did the same for this one. I'll post some pics later tonight.

Cheers.

[Gavin]

Saw a few beats in HK when I was start of the year, you sorted on the ecu side of things now all ok?

[cliov6]

The project is coming together nicely.
These are some parts that Ive gathered over the past few months.
Now still waiting for the suspension to arrive and wheels to come back from the paint shop.
Ive also replaced a new roof.

[C-Rex]

Wow what an update!! Looks great!

Any pictures of the interior all back together?
How did you order the bits from RS Mach did you deal with them directly?

I was doing alot of research into seats for my beat in the last week, the Feels seat is made by a Japanese company called Esqueleto (They also make seats for Mugen and Spoon).. They also specialise in doing seats for Roadsters like the MX5, Lotus and the Beat:cool:

They have a seat repair service on their site if you needed bits
http://www.esqueleto.jp/esqueletoseat/esqueleto_repair/esq_repair.html

Heres a link to the Esqueleto Compact for Kei Cars/Beats
You can order them new and get them customise to how you want

[cliov6]

I have a friend in Japan and he ordered the rs Mach stuff for me.

Good find on the seat. Too late for me though, I already got it rewrapped locally.

I'll get pics of the interior tomorrow. It's almost done. Haven't put everything back together yet, but almost there.

[TADO]

love that blue! think ive seen you on instagram?
cant wait to see it all finished.

The blue actually looks much better in person. The Laguna seca blue color just doesn't seem to show up properly in pictures.

Yup, it's me on Instagram.
I can't wait for it to be finished myself. Hopefully within this month.

I'll keep updating this post.

[C-Rex]

Is that laguna seca blue from an E46 BMW?

[Mugsee]

Sweet car - I love the black interior respray!

[cliov6]

Is that laguna seca blue from an E46 BMW?

Yeah, but it's a wrap, not paint, so it's not a 100% match to the LSB. Very close though.


Sweet car - I love the black interior respray!

It makes be interior look much neater. I'll post some pics in a bit.

[Seventynine]

Looks great did you flock the door cards and dash inserts or is it felt or something?

What did you use to paint the bits too? It was done in my beat when I got it but was all peeling so had to strip it all back sit its just clean original grey again


TE37s and the seat will really set it off, what colour are you going on the wheels?

The door cards and dash inserts were wrapped. I bought cheap china suede wraps. They work fine for those pieces cuz they're pretty much flat.

I took the interior panels to my paint shop to get it done. He said he has to spray a layer of something on the dash first for the paint to stick. Not sure what it is.

TE37s are gon be chrome copper.
Should get painted this week.

[cliov6]

Finally got my suspension installed. The car is significantly sharper. Handles a lot better. It's a little stiff, but very acceptable.
The car looks even smaller after its lowered.
Rims will be painted tomorrow and I'll install them Monday.

I thought about it, but even if i rid the side markers, the corner lights on the headlights will still be orange. Since I can't rid all the Orange, I decided to just keep it.

[C-Rex]

Looks great on the TE37s!! The decals you put up on them are cool
Ive been planning on doing my fog lights yellow too and just noticed yours now, Ill be going at it next week when I get to doing exterior work


And agree with Steve on the repeaters, the clear would be cool!

[Gavin]

Awesome how it's changed so much :) you over on Hong Kong proper or Kowloon / Mong Kok way? I usually stay in new territories with family when I go over

[C-Rex]

Did you need to space your front wheels too?

What are the tire 165/65?

[cliov6]

Spacers weren't needed. It wasn't rubbing anything. The tire size is 165/55/14

[TADO]

that looks brilliant! :bounce: love the ducktail spoiler.

[cliov6]

It's a Mugen spoiler. I love it to. It goes well with the car. I have a spare one if you're interested.

Couple pics of the cusco suspension. Only height adjustable. You can't adjust the stiffness, but it's pretty good. Stiff enough, but not too much.

[Gavin]

looks like an automac one Bob just been looking for some more parts and saw one listed as automac like that

[C-Rex]

Those Cuscos look so good must handle nice on them..
That front bumper looks like a Bee Tune Type 1 with caboon ad ons..
http://www.automac.co.jp/parts/parts01.htm

How come you are changing from the Mugen front bumper? I really want to get the RS Mach front splitter/spoiler to fit the mugen front like this:
http://cdn.mkimg.carview.co.jp/minkara/parts/000/003/500/074/3500074/p1.jpg?ct=e5f8123a6455

How much are you looking for the mugen spoiler too?

[cliov6]

The cusco's are good. Better than I expected.

That bumper does look like a bee tune. I love the Mugen bumper, I didn't plan to getting this, but I placed a low bid and ended up winning the auction. So I guess ill just swap them every now and then. Only a few bolts for the bumper anyways.

I bought the Mugen spoiler for $250usd

[cliov6]

I added sole spacers to the TE37 and now they're flush with the fender.

The original specs were
14x6+38
15x6+37

I added a 15mm up front and 12mm on the rear.

It'll probably rub if on tires wider than 165 though.

The ultimate mid engined Honda ever made... And an NSX :D

The car is looking great!

[R@tch]

That looks amazing <3 , very brave to pick a colour like that but it worked out great!! I've been wanting to do a wrap on my beat as well but was pulling out, this is making me reconsider.

[cliov6]

Got an RS Mach widebody kit a couple months ago. Finally got to test fit it a bit to determine the specs of the new wheels.

[C-Rex]

Wow thats going to look great... Didnt know everything went so wide with that kit!!

[Gavin]

[cliov6]

Rims came in for the widebody Kit.
Will test fit them later this week.

[R@tch]

Yum, some very tasty te37v's. Have to say I'm a little disapointed with the widebody, you should have kept it mugen and save another beat and make that widebody ;) Still it's probably going to be amazing.

[C-Rex]

This is going to be amazing keep us updated!!

[cliov6]

Test fitted the rims today. Perfect fit.

[C-Rex]

14x8j fronts with a 0 offset could be interesting though!

[cliov6]

Finally test fitted the bodykit.
The fitment is decent, not perfect, but acceptable.

Should have everything finished in a couple months.
