wow, i just looked at your car like a couple weeks ago. curious if you were still around. your car still looks good. as you can see, mines gone through a big change...if you remember my car from before. haha
JOIN THE FORUMS!!!!!
Cone Killa Matt?!? Good to see that you're still around buddy!
were did you get the cluster for that goes on top of the stearing wheel
lol thats all i can say
Hey whats up?! Ya, I put a lot of stuff on. Hehe. :) I changed my mind long ago about getting Tein. I went with PIC's and they are an extremely well performing coilover. It was a toss up between PIC and AMR, went with PIC because they were established already and AMR's are still in their infancy. If you follow the link towards the end of my "Personal Comments", you'll get a little more detail on the setup. Take it easy dude, nice to hear from one of the "old timers" :P.
dude did u fall off the face of the earth? havent heard from u in forever
hey is ur car auto. kuz ur shifter looks kinda weird bt yea n e ways ur car looks reel klean how kome u dnt drop it a lil more it will look better i personally think thats tight that ur hitting the tracks and wat not i want 2 start doing that...soon

im now on the right path for handling and performance
, just check out my pics to see my latest changes and additions, currently had 4 civics now, 1 eg hach manual 1 eg hach auto 1 ek saloon d series and my newest ek b series.

How do you like that Koyo radiator? I've been thinking about getting one and just wondered what you thought of it.
whats up man? This car has always been one of my favorites. I finally added a profile on here. Check it out if you want.
clean ride bro! D-Series all the way!!! I got a boosted one :) hit my page up man. once again clean ride!

Dont take it personal bud im just messin with ya..whatever makes you happy is all that matters!..lets end the rants to start off the new year on a positive note! Peace Brotha..

still having motor problems, hit me up.
Your car has a lot of parts that aren't generic. You put the essentials where necessary. It seems EK9 soul has an inflated ego and has become wrapped up in the whole JDM bandwagon deal. Have you heard the phrase, "JDM is the new rice"? A true tuner and enthusiast with automotive passion will not limit themselves to narrow mindedness.
Pursuing JDM only parts is fine, but to have an attitude where other parts are inferior based solely on their country of origin speaks volumes of ones personality. His car has a ton of nice parts and it's very clean, but the image is very "cookie cutter", and lacks originality. It seems his criteria is JDM or nothing at all, and it seems the mentality continues to, "my car is better than yours because I have all JDM parts, I must be better than you." It's an immature attitude. What is the main influence on one's personality? One's upbringing, particularly parents. I'd hate to see what would become of his personality should he receive a substantial increase in pay. $0.02

What's up Killa??? Yea Man, I know exactly what you mean about social life and WORK!! It's all good though..... Hey, Couple things: One, I heared that the Megan Lower control arms for the Rear Crack or could break =/ ..... Two, I've been really thinking of a swap lately... What do you think?? Keep in mind that I'm more into looks than anything BUT, Like I always say, It's always good to have a lil' something to pull on the end, NO? >>>Later<<<
YOOOOO buddy, how you been? i bought the jackson racing supercharger yesterday!!!!! its not goin in my car for a couple of months, but im gona put picks up so you can peep it....
It must be the air in Pasadena that makes people blind or dumb?..Generic brand equals generic car go figure... But i guess you spend most of your money on feeding ur gf..yea im sure you have alot of OTHER things to worry about...(u gotta save up for her gastric bypass surgery eh?)..It now makes sense why u are equipped w/cheap generic parts..just save some MORE to achieve jdmness status bud since u claim u "can afford it" but then again i can care less.. but REALLY why do you have 4 foglights?? Is it necessary? Have fun racing ur generic automatic DX in the end it IS your car...see u on the track homie! BTW do more research on wheels u really dont know anything..
thanx for the comment on my car but those were just stock steelies on it in the pix but now i got some actual wheels on it they were cheap so i bought them not really my style though i wanted some more black ones but o well now i just have some silver ar racing wheels they arent too bad though
Haha OMFG WOW dude i forgot its Phixion who Im dealin with the wannabe "guru" who's known for making looong rants to prove a small simple point..not my style & not my thing to type in a looong novel but I might as well do it..my car speaks for itself & let yours do the same...you're a fan for having 4 fog lights(lmao),rota wheels, stiffist automatic granny grocery getter dx you have every right to do so...its your ride you do what you want i can care less...Im just a fan of real deal, high quality parts (which i can afford)..anything wrong with that?...I dunno if u got the memo but Rota is known for fake imitation wheels which i guess represents YOU...Its Rota who copies every single high performance wheels out there but you cannot compare it to the real deal wheels...Yea Regas are eyecandy but did you know they function just as well or even bettter?? They have Rota replicas known as slipstreams do they perform the same?..Hell Naw son!"Often imitated...NEVER duplicated"...No i dont track race this car since this site is called Honda"SHOWOFF".com..no need to showoff my track raced CRX which can do circles around you bud.."H"badge represents Honda not hate...& I would looove to settle this on the track..Just for you to shut up and stop typing in these loooong rants & raves on peoples profiles taking up space...I'll let you know when im in town buddy...Now its your turn to type in a looong "novel" thats what you're known for...
So are you calling me a hypocrite??...I guess i am..But Mugen is the only exception!...Id have to say Mugen is a combination of both Fashion & Function & worth every penny...BUT sway bars & strut bars are 2 different mods but each do its part in suspension upgrades..however on my ride strut bars do perform & work well for my ride...so id have to disagree w/u there brotha...perhaps cuz my car is a lot lighter than urs?? An auto is heavier than manual for one..& rotas are not ultra light weight wheels & u have no cf hood soo maybe thats why u dont feel the upgrade of a strutbar??..i dunno man..
You have a perfect civic pretty much its sweet lots of money dumped into it.But it is all money well spent.If my car was a 1/4 as good as yours I'd be happy.You do some really good work, how long have you been doing mods to this car?Well good work keep it up.
Thanx for stopping by again Matt. I replaced everything at 90,xxx. As far as tranny coolers, I need to get my transmission serviced soon. I'll be doing that before the cooler. I was also considering a trans swap, I know, I know, you're an auto advocate. But they do rob 5-10% more power than a manual. I can't get into 1st if I wanted to do a WOT acceleration from 20. It's a slushbox, I hate it =P , haha, no disrespect to auto owners though, hey, I'm tuning one myself. If I ever get around to doing that I won't be needing the cooler, and I'd probably invest in an aftermarket radiator too, although cooling capacity is quite fine in my now. :)
I stinking have got suspension woes and issues that need to be addressed as well as some other maintainence issues. Be on the look out for another update possibly within 3 months time.

i think the next thing u should do is get rid of that blue wireloom! it serves no purpose! and do something fancy to the valvecover too while ur at it. im building up an ek hatch right now..hopefully done before spring. U NEED a Y8 head and mani! these are just my opinions if i owned ur car, but if u dont like them, tell ME WHY WHY WHY?
geez...that's a super long auto-x course. sounds like a fun one though. best times of the day for the event i went to were low 40's, i managed a 50 second run at my best. That's awesome that you beat out your cousin's wrx. that's what i love about auto-x. the most powerful cars aren't always the fastest..
looks like fun...you wanna trade wheels?...j/k. always keep me updated!
hey matt. Auto-x was a blast. I had a lot of fun and can't wait to run again next season. Those pics are from my first time. Unfortunately, that was the last auto-x of the season here in rochester, so i'll have to wait till next spring to go again. meanwhile i'll have time to convert to a manual transmission and upgrade my wheels and tires.
your a life saver, thanks for the hydroplane info, we have a LOT of wet weather here, so wet grip is very important.
thanks again, you gave me a lot of food for thought.

hey a big thank you for the suspension set up info.
Couple of more questions tho, would the stiffer type flex be ok for everyday street driving (lots of pot holes around where i live) or would it be too bouncy.
Also do you carry alot of passengers in the back how low does it go fully loaded (i sometimes cary 4+ lugage in the car) any scrubbing issues.
and finaly is there a big difference in your tyres (do the yokos wear out to fast to use as a street tyre) what cars can your setup beat round a corner.
any tires i buy will be a massive improvement on the ultra budjet hydrophobic nankang hydroplaning specials that came with my rims :)
i beleve that the civic has potentialy the best sport compact chassis ever.
thanks again.

I might not be gettin that supercharger anymore. my clutch is really shot. i might have to invest in a stage 2 setup. wich is about 420 on ebay,so its gona set me back. I duno if a clutch is under warranty, caus if so i would just get it replaced at Honda, but i duno. I had no idea there was a sequal to initial D... Is it live action? let me know. i want to get it!!!!
dude you read my mind with that suspension setup, how does it handle ie understeer wise.
did the h brace make a big difference.

where did you get ur headlights? i like em a lot
hey, well i guess i got an answer myself about the grille piece. i just got all my parts. and the grille just slides right into place of the bumper. theres like these little clipes on the mottom of the grill that slide underneath this area on the bumper. so i guess its fine like that, then screw the top onto the car where it goes.
i guess it doesnt need that extra molding piece like the orignal one does. i put pics of my parts. not that great of pics IMO. the wind was blowin like crazy, so it kept falling over. and the lighting was a little wrong.
I just cant seem tp fit the pieces on right, it fits perfect from the middle section of the lips. theres screws it came with, but no screw holes. and the rear lip came with screws and 2 bracket like pieces. i dunno, i was just confused and couldnt think earlier. im sure i can make it go on.
I dunno why, i just feel like a kid again, and im all excited. lol

yeah, im goin back to the whole stock look, with a type r front and rear lip. the front lip is polyurethane and back is ABS plastic
im not trusty with ordering online, and i got it from JDMSH!T.com . im not sure how good of people they are, but there deal seemed good, i got the front and rear lip package for 199 and the grille for 45 bucks. pretty cheap to me.
when i get my lip package and grille, hopefully this week, then i think imma finally get it all painted onto my car. i just know it will look funny right now until i get smaller rims and get it lowered =/

heh, thats cool. i ordered type r "style" front and rear lips for my car and noticed yours were the "style" ones too. is there really much of a difference from the actual jdm civic type r lip to the style ones?
also, i was wondering if you would know if the tpye r grille fits right oneto the bumper like the orignal grille where it has this molding piece to it. or does it go right on without the molding.
just wondering cuz i already oreded my stock grille over a month ago with the rest of my parts, and meant to get the type r grille instead ( which i just ordered) and the stock one said i needed that molding piece. i also asked you cuz your SI grill looks simialr to it. thanks for any of your help :)

The car is clean man, nice work...
Yo bro long time no talk. I picked up fast and the furious on DVD. seen it 3 times already. sad isnt it? I got some new toys for my car. im superchargin this spring. im buyin the gauges already. AF ratio gauge alone is $300!!. sigh!. check out the new stuff on my ride. i just put the V2 intake in. wow what a difference compared to the regular aem short ram. holla at me...
Thanks, man your ride is nice and clean.. What track are you on in those pictures? Well Keep up the good work.
THANKS FOR THE COMENTS THE MOTOR SHOULD BE READY TO RUN AND TUNE TOMMOR!!!!
I would get the spoon calipers if i can't get the j's racing one. I want to get away from the white and blue cuz my buddy that i bought the car from he loved blue but i'm more down to keep the car white and red so i want to get the j's racing calipers instead to match the car. Ya I'm worried that it might not fit. If so then you know what that means.... NEW RIMS!!!! hahaha
Spoon calipers are also too common so might as well change it up a lil bit

yeah it works so much better man.............it grinds if i power shift but if i take it to redline then just push the clutch in and take my time to shift its perfect......so i got it all good now....atleast ill be able to save my tranny man so im stoked
ok so i added the honda MTF............................its a lot better but it still grinds a little bit....but when i was driving home last night i took it for one last spin and it didnt grind at all.....................................................................so like does the transmission have to get use to the new fluid or something?
I could swear ive seen you driving by a couple of times. Im in the Inland Empire (Montclair, Chino Area)
hey man check out the custom shift light wiring i did, it blends in like its and oem part
Hey nice civic where in California are you located?
oh yeah and i just bought the honda mtf and gona put it in tomorrow.....now could i just fill it up through the vss?????? cause i here that people do it that way....they drain it then fill from the vss....and does it matter if my car is jacked up? or should i put it down after i get that drain plug out?
yeah im hoping its just the fluid......because when i first got the car which was in december it didn't do it....then iput a short shifter in it and started doing it only into 3rd.......but if i do it hella quick its not that bad of a grind but if im at high rpms and try and shift slowly it grinds.....so it kinda sucks when im racing i have to either wait or just slam it in 3rd.......but how much does it ususally cost for a synchro and gear rebuild?
hey thanks man ima go buy some honda fluid on thursday and then put it in...ill let u know how it goes!!!! thanks buddy!
ok so heres a question for ya....my 3rd gear is starting to grind at high rpms....now everyone tells me its my synchro that is starting to go out...so i went and bought some fluid for it.........now i tried adding it to the fill in hole and it wouldn't go in...soi put it through the air breather thingy......it made a little difference....now heres the question.....should i get some gm synchromesh? or just go to honda and buy there tranny fluid there?
is the blue tape to protect y our lights from debrie when autoxing?

hey man. i've got one question for you. i have been looking around a lot, but havent found a lot of info. do you know anything about how to do a 5 lug conversion on my car?
lol well just gotta see how the d'series gonna do. what else are you gonna do to it?
My buddy had a D-series in his old EK and the first thing he did was change it to a b-series cuz he said that his engine looked so empty. lol K-20 would be the shiet in my car but i gotta get the dough in place and i still wanna get bored of my engine first. lol
eh you ever thought of gettin an aftermarket torque converter or do you have one already?
nice clean car you got there....loving the seats man...how is the 205/15/50 fee on lauching your car? im planning to get one of those. im just not sure about its performance.... Tnx! later bro....
thanks bro but they are mounted to the rear seat harnesses and they hold pretty tight. i'm going to be getting takata seat belts in the future. If anything they would be stopped by the holes of the seats.

hey man, every thing in ur car looks great, except one thing that keeps bothering me everytime i see ur car, the door moldings. u should paint them, and ur door handle.
gymkhana is some crazy stuff. i had never heard of it before, so i searched it and found some wild videos. but i couldnt find a video of crx's u know of any?
yeah, i said that cuz a lot of times peeps rip on auto's when they can perform just as well if not better, and your car is a good example
Thanks bro, you have quite the crazy track car!! R D-serie's engines pretty crazy? or you gotta do a lotta sh*t to it? JDM PRIDE!!
Hey Matt. Yeah, that hissing noise was just bothering me. Although, i liked the sound of the intake in the higher rpms (sounded deeper), but the hissing was getting old for me. Anyways, besides that i came real close to trading the civic this summer, but i decided in the end i'd like to finish what i've started. So i'll wait till i have the cash to make the car what i want it to be. How's it going with you?
A wise man once said, if you're gonna invest a lot of money into a car, it better know how to shift by itself.
Being that you seem to have a good grasp of all things suspension, I had a quick question for you. Will front and rear strut braces make a difference in handling for me, with an otherwise stock suspension?? I can't lower it till the warranty's up, but that will be the first thing I do when it runs out. For now, I'm looking for things that won't void it, that may make minor improvements in handling. Could you recommend a reasonalby priced one?? You have a hella setup here. I'm jealous. BTW, new wheels will be here, and hopefully on the car 8/2, pics to follow. Check my profile in a week or two.
Hey man, how's it going? Haven't talked to you for a while so I thought I would drop by and say hello. Anyways, your car is looking good; sorry to hear about the tire blow out. Hope everything's ok now!
Well I finally got rid of my Accord, check out my new ride some time if you get a chance. Later!

yea pretty much what u said, LS/Vtec can be ur best friend or you worst enemy...lol
i'll keep u posted on my engine status..peace
Im the one that has the civic and wants to get into track racing. Im not sure why my profile name didnt post under my comment. But my user name is MacBen. I will post a link below, please check out my ride. http://hondashowoff.com/profile.php?id=6951
July 27 (every other thursday), theres gonna be a G35/350z meet in Chino Hills. Come by and we'll chill, and get some food. Its a small meet, of mostly G35s and 350z's but all cars are welcome. Just no teenie boppers that like to be loud and peal out lol. It was kind of a good idea to have the meets across the street from the cops haha! Keeps the ricerockets away :] Its at the Chilli's parking lot off of Grand in Chino Hills.
Yup, I had to sell her. No one was driving her, and she was just taking up space... and I was still paying insurance too. Yeah.... sooooo many memories!
Glad you like the G35! Yeah, still working in Pasadena. Mostly, all I do is work, and fix up the new car... and work some more. Lately, I've been traveling alot. I just got back from NY on Tuesday.
Oh, and does my profile pop up when its updated? I forgot how this site works lol

well, the bodywork turned out great, so i guess it is sort of a show car, but this thing is quick, so i would like to take it auto crossing on the weekends, if not take some cones to wal-mart. =) but like my other civics i bought for a steal, this si i almost stock for $8000 wit only 65000 miles. It came with that ugly valve cover, Im painting it asap. but hey man, still kinda miss my 03's
d17, lots of memorys....
d17, lots of memorys....
I'm lovin your suspension. Very nice set up and clean ride.
if everyone is telling me that c8 fits best then I think I will stay by C8's :) cheers
yeah I hope that bronze will look good :) I first wanted Rota Style 5 in chrome but many people say that it won't look good on Civic so I'm gonna get C8
yea, yo das kool u really know yah suspension n das kool, thankx fo da comments on my DA, if only the funds came in faster, but anways bad news struck yesterday i was messing around like an idiot and got too happy with my no rev limit ECU and i revved a little too hard a few times and i think it snapped sumthing, smoke started coming from the head, possible blown head gasket but i will see the damage come monday when i tow to da shop. Anytime u have new pics or upgrades let me know. Peace
wow... those are really nice man... thanks a lot... i appreciate the info... i just might go for it...

looks nice, exterior done clean and very subtle :) keep up the good work man
first off sik suspension set-up, if only i had the money to buy dem tein's, sik work wit da D-series motors, done right they can haul real nice and since ur big in autox u dont really need anything more powerful on a civic, as long as u got dat sik suspension set-up i bet it takes corners sik, i hope one day i'll have the money to afford some suspension like dat for my G2, check out my ride when u get a chance just posted new pics up....great work bump da haterz n remember life is like a autox race, u take every turn n step not knowing wha corner will be ur end or will it end....peace lol
yea i was suppose to get the 14: rikens but i was in a money whole... so i ended up not gettin them... hopefully the Gt3 will be good... but ive heard they weigh about 20 lbs each... so i just might be getting the slipstreams... which are about 15-17 lbs... the less the best... cuz i dont want to be draggin bricks.... lol... =P

I think I'm lucky!! All of my Tires were kinda worn out but my Right Front Tire was worn out nasty and I was going to wait Till next week, but something told me "Let's go NOW to the Tire shop"........ I had that Experience where a Tire blew on me in the Freeway, Not pretty. It's kinda like a rush but not really =\ Anyways, I bought 4 brand new tires at a buck fifteen a pop. Oh well.. Like I told you Dawg, If it's not one thing, it's another, Stay up. >>>Later<<<
your d series would not have a chance against my poormans type r just your typical gsr with a b16 head in a heavy integra not talking trash just speaking the truth autox or drag ill pull you hard!!!
thanx, u got the best suspension set up ive seen on a civic, how much was everything?
hey... its not a HX its a EX... :)
nice motor design, the front type r lip is the perfect look on those civics, simple and clean is the way to go, keep it up
You have no idea, that stuff is a pain in the @ss to tune up and line out all the bugs. But it was worth the experience and it was kinda fun to learn all about that stuff. It does drive like its on a rail but I don't think it can hang with a EVO or a STI.....yet. Never the less my friends are trying to talk me into putting "Bags" on it but I don't want bags cause they handle like sh*t.
Thanx Dawg!! I'll Probly hit the River too to take new pics... Watch me slip on my a@s again (hahaha) >>>Later<<<
Hey thanks for checking out my teg, the dropzone stuff seems to be working out for me just fine although it did take along time to get it all lined out with the right stuff and the right adjustments but I am satisfied. I have alot of ideas and some new stuff I wanna try but I am going to wait until the winter time when I garage her to try some of it out. LaTeR
Thank you! =)
not yet... ill be taking some real soon... i want to get a freesh paint b4 i do that... haha =]
hey do u know if zr headers are decent? or are dc sports better?
Thanks for the comments. I intend to keep most of the engine stock until I get my H22. I will then get all the other fun stuff installed into it (i.e. cam shaft, pistons, flywheel) and possibly turbo. Must save up about $10,000! My wife is crossing her fingers for me.
What's up Killa!!! I got some new TailLights... Got Rid of them Carbon Fiber one's (wasn't feel them no more). Check it out when you get a chance >>>Later<<<
tru imma look into it cuz its tru wa u say its a realy blue looking light and will b harder to see in for or rain like u say so imma look into the 5000k thanks tho man good luck and still the phatest single cam ek in here hahaha....
So what did u think? I thought it stunk ass. the first race with the viper was totally non beleivable. and then when they do the donuts with the girls in the skyline and then he gets her number? lol yea that happens all the time. i thought it was the worst out of the 3. ur opinion?
YUP DEFINITELY TWINS AND IT WASNT CHEAP...THEIRS PROOF IN THE PIC...WHAT ABOUT YOU? WHAT YOU GOT?
yo phixion wassup i like wa u doing with the coupe but i got a quick question better yet a favor.. can u take a pictures of ya HID's while the lights are one so i culd see wa color they look like cuz im looking to buy some but i dont know weather to go with the 8000k or the 5000k lmk thanks.....and again nice ride :-P
The fast and furious movie may turn out to be good. Its gona be all flash and stupid stuff that would never happen in real life. But thats the point of it being a movie right? I saw the commercial the other day and Vin Deisle was on the commercial. I didnt know he was in it.. Are u gona hit up the theatres on opening day over there?
HEY SWEET RIDE..IM PLANNING ON DOING ALOTA WORK ON MY CAR...BUT THANKS FOR THE COMMENT...
Man Phixion alot of people are hating on you. Your still my boy though. Hows Special Stage treating you? did you like it?
hey check out my car, just added a new picture, tell me what ya think
i think everyone should stop writing bad comments on phixion's profile. you guys have to understand that not everyone can afford a swap, or have the patience to save up enough money to afford one. also, different people have different priorities; some may want more power, others may focus on handling. these hater comments are becoming really pointless and it is a waste of everyone's time (even though it is kinda entertaining).
Let me add and reiterate that I live in CA, therefore espeically with that rice crap movie coming out the end of this week, B-series motors are rather expensive than in Conn. Don't believe me? here's 2 fine examples, this one is an OBDI model (NOT what I'd get since I want OBDII which is MORE money): http://www.passwordjdm.com/product.asp?numRecordPosition=8&P_ID=129&strPageHistory=&strKeywords=&SearchFor=&PT_ID=134
And here's an OBDII SiR version: http://www.jhpusa.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21_34&products_id=47
Both DO include trannies, but as you can see they both eclipse the price of a JRSC by a few to several hundred. it's the common phenomenon called supply and demand, ever learn about it in school? I'd never pay that cheap for a motor, you gotta think there's a reason why it's SO cheap, and it's not because it's "good." More like too good to be true. On the otherhand while I can get a K24 longblock for $1300 right now, a turnkey installed motor is $6500. Definitely NOT worth the price for the gains it gets. $6500 could get me a D-series that can kill most N/A and many boosted B-series on the strip, and probably almost any exotic on the track with the right driver, oh not all that money would be in just the motor either. ;)

Sorry dude if you gettin haters flaming on you...they just don't know any better..Just to set the record straight for all those haters hating on you..."You do not need alot of hp to run the track"...the key is a good suspension set up & excellent driving techniques..hope this helps ya bro!
Very Nice...Seems like you've put a lot of work in it...Keep it Up!!
well... its working ok if its at 300degrees becuz dot 4 optimum compression temp. is 350, while dot3 optimum temp is 300. so the set up is not Horrible if your getting up to 300degrees in the street. And for max. stopping power, ceramic brake pads with the stock or upgraded rotors, NO CROSS-DRILLED, they will crack and send you into a wall!!! good luck racing

im going to build my single cam, any good websites to buy stuff off of or do you know anywhere or anyone including yourself that could get me any of the parts in my future mods list. Thanks
HAHA. You like it? Wait till you see Project D. You can get the whole stage 4 on ebay. its worth it. wait till u see the sil eighty girls in the hot tub!!! jk
when i was considering an sti or evo i think they mentioned if they know you were racing it even not at a track and messed up your tranny or engine thats on you. normal use is what they cover. my car inspires more dangerous driving tho. it can handle more and is forgiving with the aid of traction control and other braking help gadgets in the car.
Oh no, Dont get me wrong, dot4 and dot5 are great racing brake fluids, because of all the breaking that goes on during a race, just that out in the city, since dot4 and 5 have higher viscositys and higher boiling points and such, meaning they compress at higher tempertures then dot3, you will get a spongy pedal and the braking system will not be as effective, making it harder and longer to stop. Just when you use dot4, make sure to bleed every air bubble out as possible, because air=water in brake fluid, and dot5 silicone based fluids are for high performance cars, like if your going to race at le mans.
ohh i got pulled over in sac, cali
they pulled me over for no amber reflectors, i know that was b.s. because the second he pulled me over, he asked me to pop my hood, illegal cold air intake, now i got to get it state refed, my hatch now for sale, too much racial profiling on the road....
Hey bro, that dot 4 brake fluid is not safe for street driving with your civic, just letting you know. stick with a dot 3 brake fluid, just dont get a cheap brand
hey bro, wats up again. I saw that you recommended a chilton repair book to someone, but Shopkey5.com is better than anythin out their. Only exclusive members are allowed (techs and mechanics, etc.) but if your interested, ill give you my password and u can check it out
dude id rather have a bit of both to make it more fun honestly power/handling. my car i have rite now is fast but seems a bit unstable and heavy. i dont know how good it would be at racing and its supposed a sports sedan. all i know is that its suspension is hard and you feel bumps that would prob be soaked up by bmws etc.
I guess you can argue it both ways whether it is driver skill or car that makes you go fast around a track. It's just that most experienced race car drivers say that car is the #1 factor that gets you quicker times, taking into consideration the fact that there aren't HUGE gaps in driver skill when you reach higher levels of competition. In lower levels of competition, driver skill varies greatly and so there are times when you see "an EVO TRYING to keep up" with a 100hp civic or "STOCK Civics BEATING modded Z06 Vettes". Thus, I am assuming that you compete at a level in which most of the drivers cannot yet drive out the potential of their cars (i'm not saying that's a bad thing since everyone has to start there). You will understand this philosophy once you reach higher levels of competition. At those levels, you will see that although you may be able to keep up (to some extent) in the corners, a higher performance car will be able to brake later into the corners, pull away at the exits, or leave you behind on the straights. When you experiece these frustrations, you will at last realize that although you and your opponent may have relatively equal driving skills, the difference in the cars' performance is giving the opponent quicker lap times.
Of course I have heard of Willow Springs even though I have never been there. I am actually Japanese and I return to Japan very often, so I spend most of my time at places like tsukuba, motegi, and ebisu. I have been racing for around ten years now, so I guess I am pretty experienced. If you have any questions about road racing, feel free to ask me!
By the way, I would appreciate it if you could please stop leaving negative comments on everyone's profiles. You should be thanking instead of criticizing me since my people have provided you with a fun car you can afford and modify for cheap.

I'd be glad to get back on that. Let's just put it at this, I don't drag race, therefore HP is the least of my concern. I could really care less how much I have. Driver skill will ALWAYS surpass how powerful a car is anyways. But unless you auto-X or road race, you'd never know or understand that simple fact. ;) There is A LOT more to a good car than just HP. If HP is all you're concerned about, then you need to pull you're head out of your a$$ and wake the fsck up d00d!
im sure that your car is fun but not being fast has to suck. it did for me. as for dum dums who say theyre going to do engine swaps etc. they might as well get a better car for all the money theyre going to put into it. those engines still have to be tuned and might have problems. that fool niterider is talking about an engine he doesnt even own that cant compete at my level anywayz.

holy crap what a great question phixion how much horsepower your car has??? 90 95 98, please get back to me.
Honda Nation, I think you last post proves you're even more of an idiot than the Truth was. :) Maybe it's better you don't have a profile. That '95 NSX is just a dream, because a person that really owns one wouldn't bother making the petty comments on here that you make. Also you can't read either, I NEVER NEVER said that the D-series (or mine for that matter) is BETTER than a B-series. Please please please prove me wrong on that. I beg you because I know you can't ahahaha!!!
Lastly I hope everyone DOES check out that website, because you I won't be on there LMAO! What an idiot dude, put you're money where your mouth is and PROVE that you have an NSX. No stealing pics off the net like Truth did either. ;)

i mean how dumb can you be your arguing with these people because you feel your d16 is better then a b series motor so your saying your d16 is better then hondas best car the type r i hope you dont email any1 that owns a type r this nonsense that your saying here.
you know what you should do create a new profile cause you have lost your mind. go email one of those integra type r that your d16 can out perform there b18 ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

"road racing maybe but even then that's like 80% driver skill, 15% car and 5% balls to the walls"
It is actually more like 80% car, 15% driver, and 5% balls. Just letting everyone know so they don't get false information.
Please don't make up facts about road racing, especially when you are only an autocrosser.

You subscribed to Honda tuning Mag., The may issue got a article on the Bseries vs d series, they got the d series to rack up more hp than the b. Its awkward how thats possible, but they dont lie. just pick it up the next time ur out.

hey dude, is it hard to install a cam gear and pulleys? cause i wanna do it but i can't find any instructions or info on it, so if u know anything or any good links let me know!
I always go to the L.A River to Chillax.... But I've never gone in there with my car. Out of no'where I decided to go in there to take some pics.... It turned out Okay cause I didn't get sweated by nobody. It's under the 6th street Bridge... If you want to go, Make sure you take some rags on cause that green surface is f@#*en Slippery Dawg!!! You want to Laugh??? The last picture I took, Getting out of my Car, I slipped on my @ss (ja ja Ha Lol). Everytime I go, it never fails.... >>>Later<<<
well first off your car is far from what you make it out to be yeah you do have some nice suspension add ons but that does not make your car that cool! i am very experienced in hondas and your statement about the b16 not being a better motor your crazy the b16 is a very good motor and way better than any d series by far!! yeah i have a d16a6 motor and yes i can beat alot of b16's with just the homemade upgrades i have but if you were to do the B16 like i did the d16 then the B16 will still be stronger and will still outrun the d16 anyday in any type of race!! you also said that a turbo B16 would not help you anymore than a d16 in auto x your wrong your accel times would be so much greater then if you only had a d16 so there for you would obviously get much better times! just think if you and a turbo b16 were going at it with all of the same suspension upgrades you have you cannot tell me that you would run better auto x times than the b16 i would bet money that your car would be left in the dirt possibly upside down sorry for sounding so negative but you should wonder a little harder about your research!! please feel free to look at my car and tell me that it looks like sh!t cause i know!! but as soon as the new pics come up you might wanna go out and buy yourself a crx like mine cause i know for fact that the rex will leave your coupe far behind!!!! see ya

nice clean look, to bad its automatic. not a big fan of the metal look and the pedals are pretty ugly and suede mugen boot, not really feeling that neither. and the four fog lights in the front not really feeling that neither. but keep up the good work the outside looks straight see if you can pick up some spoon mirros to peace!
hey man, nice car. CRAZY list of mods! its huge. looks good tho!
thats clean yo! but i dun get why ppl tape over their headlights when they autox... anyways. hah nice work. supercharger is gonna be SICK! pcee
nice ride thax for your comment
Let's see, it's automatic because that's how I bought it! :) Better engine? I didn't feel like paying the over priced price for an Si at the time, not to mention the B16, it's NOT a better engine, more powerful yes, but it's not BETTER! That's the misconception with pansy ass swappers. They think because it has more power it's "better." WRONG! ;) Lastly where have I spent so much on the engine so far? Point out something I have that cost a lot that I don't know about or didn't list... o_O Think before you speak d00d! Sure i want a JRSC, but is that any differance than getting a B16 and turboing it? NO! In fact it's smarter, why you ask? Simple, I'm saving 4 times the money, plus a turbo B16 is WAY more power than I'd ever need for the street anyways, and it wouldn't improve my times any for auto-X, road racing maybe but even then that's like 80% driver skill, 15% car and 5% balls to the walls. There's a neat thing out there called research, try it out sometime, you might discover something interesting that you never knew about. ;)
why is your car automatic? and why don't you just get a good engine to start with, if you're gonna spend so much money on it. just wondering. not hating.

I felt like a bumm cause you get used to all that money making and all of a sudden , Pamm!! Your flow is gone!! Oh well.... I'm just glad I'm still in the game, now with my 4-Door.. What's been up Dawg??? Hows the Road Runner Treating you?? Lol >>>Later<<<
Thanks. You really know your stuff! Am I correct in saying that the 68mm T/B is the ideal size for a stock f22b2 manifold.
hey man thanks for the info. ima look into it. well take care man enjoy ur car.
yep I'm still alive Im still luvin the car I miss mine I get a new car shes being painted pink here soon
like ur ride man.u got alot done ur self 4 ur own purp. I respect that. I do all my own work myself. I understand ur stressing some evo's. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!! I've gotten 2 in my fumes. keep it up...race on!!!!!!!!
I like ur ride! keep up the good work!race on!!!!!!!!!
Hey Phixion. I just wanted your thoughts about a Throttle body. 60mm 66mm 68mm? Is it worth it? Thanks.
from my civic that had 100 something hp it was hard getting used to 260. im still not used to it. the cars steering is heavier, it brakes much harder, and doesnt run out of power at 80mph. i did like the civics whip-ability if you know what i mean and lightning steering and you could park it anywhere.
wait like how hard is it to do a mini me swap like that? is it easier then doing a vtec mini swap? cause that sounds hella tight......if u got any info about that swap he did let me know man
my bro in law is always like yeah i smacked an evo a mustange etc so its not bad. but i did hear that fwd have lots of torque steer because the front are pulling and telling the car where to go. awd systems pull but are heavier than fwd or rwd cars usually.
the tl had 275 but according to the new whp rating i think its around 257 or something like that. my car prob has less hp under the new rating system too but its rwd so its better than a powerful fwd car. snow here in ny will prob be a problem.
d@mn r u serious? im afriad to buy nos cause if i get pulled over then id be *****ed lol......that d15 wanst even vtec? thats so tight man 200whp
DOH!! Nevermind, I was mistaken about the steering wheel thing, it was just covered up in shadows! Wow, I feel like a dumby now, lol! Guess I should have examined the pic closer before I started responding, huh? Oh well, it's still obviously a different car in the two pics, you can tell from the missing side molding, and the graphics in the rear windows...
its so different from a civic. its ok to put a bodykit on it and some big dubs. most likely ill get some staggered rims like 19s or something and a cold air intake. no bodykit or tvs. i want this one classy/clean. i was telling my bro in law about a supercharger for his car and mine. they cost 5gs tho. i think blacura could use it to be me now. i got rwd and more torque.
Hey man, ur right about exotic car seats, they arnt comftble at all, i sat and drove a viper rt10 last weekend and before i even lest the neighbrhood, my butt was hard as a rock. You were lucky to find yours.
oh no problem man. i think sohc engines r cool aswell man those things rock. i just watched some thing on the speed channel that show called pinks..... a sohc turbo running 30psi of boost and nos it was pulling hella hard! so i believe sohc r good lol. i take pride in mine also!
Hey! I just noticed something and I had to point it out to you! Go back and look at our buddy's CTR again! The interior pic shows a right-hand-drive car, but if you look at the exterior side pic (the one where you pointed out the molding was missing) the steering wheel isn't there! And you can see a tachometer sticking up over on the left hand side of the car!!!!!
This guy's crap just gets funnier by the day, lol! I don't think he could possibly embarass himself anymore than he already has....no wait, scratch that, I'm sure he'll find a way, lol!

Yeah, after I left a comment about that CTR I realized that it's supposedly his friend's car, and he made a profile for it. But I'm with you on being skeptical about it, because the pictures are awful, it looks like somebody just snapped some photos of a car they saw sitting in a parking lot somewhere, lol! And also, I don't really get why his buddy didn't make his own profile. I mean he has the know how to get a JDM car imported but he's too stupid to sit down at a computer and make a profile for himself on Hondashowoff.com? Yeah, something is definately fishy here. I don't know what "The Truth" is trying to pull, but whatever he's doing, it's straight up retarded, lol...
got an 03 g35 sedan. 260hp compared to what i was pushing out in the civic. dont get me wrong tho i love my civic and will miss it when its gone.
if u looked on my page it would tell that the type r is my boy's.dont hate cuz your money isn't long.just know that ur lame dx ain't beatin sh*t over here!!!!!!!!!!!!!
aiight, im lookin into some blanks brembo blanks or slotted, i know its probaly expensive
KYB AGX struts w/ Skunk2 Coilovers. thats how my ***** is set up
yea definitely looks nice
hella clean @ss seats dude......what did u pay for em? nice civic man its very clean. check miens out
I think it's really quite funny how our buddy Holla said he could give a rat's @ss about horsepower back when we were ragging on his Civic, but then he purchases a 300+ horsepower car and goes around bragging about it! Well, technically his parents probably purchased it for him, lol, but anyways...yeah, your car is still looking sick man, keep up the good work!
MR 360hp b*tch!!!!!!!!!!
i definitely like the black rims.....i think ima go with black as well...im lookin 2 start workin on my engine next whats next 4 u? hit me back later
I tried leaving u a comment but i guess it never went through or something like that. But anyways I have the Initial D game both for my Ps2 and my PSP. Yea the sileighty girls wouldve been sweet if they were in the movie, but yet alot of characters werent in the movie. Keiske Takahashi wasnt in it and neither was Ikteni. So i duno. but they have a DVD called Extra Stage which is a lil side story to the girls and the Sileighty. kinda cool stuff.
i like the way you think. sohc is the way to go. is your car a track car or street. reasdon i ask is im setting mine up for track and im going to use my d16y8 for the power i wantred to know how urs did with all of the performance upgrades.
10.4@132mph and yea my buddies is real and quick im trying to get an t78 and then try to run 8s
hey man i just wanted to know if your car was fast
Actually he advertised he "[i]put[/i]" the "[i]Volk Stickers[/i]. I'm familiar that Volks have a certain way the lug holes line-up with the spokes. On Volk's they don't really line up with any spokes. On Rota Grids, the bolt holes do line-up with the spokes. I think I'll update my pictures just to show a pic I ripped from his profile, rocking his "[i]Volk TE37's[/i]".
My only point was that he was frontin' again. I wasn't hatin, I even complimented on his swap. His car does look good, just pointing out the obvious like, I had done before. He ain't gotta lie to kick it, even if it is the internet.

phixion you are the man. How far have u gotten in the anime? have you seen the anmie movie as well? Ive got stages 1-4 so far. if you gotten that far in the 4th stage takumi races those 2 yellow civic Type R hatches. there so sweet!!!
I called him on his valve cover saying it was the standard VTEC cover. But I could've been wrong on that because, if my information is correct, pre-97 ITR's had that valve cover. Ooops, if he would said what year it was from then I definitely woulda been right though, because ITR valve covers have the big VTEC (after 97 if my information is correct). Although
The thing that probably set him off the most was I complimented on how nice his ROTA's were. ;)
I erase comments too if they have no bearing. Just like I'll erase this one after you've acknowledged it. :)

:D i saw some local bus uses "turbo" blinker too, which i think it's pretty cool. and thanks for the camber/shim trick, it costs $28(plus shipping) on PasswordJDM site...
one other thing: since lowered my car, i've been hearing more noise when run over bumps ... it came from somewhere in the trunk or rear suspension.. is this normal? or something is loose. (i use stock shocks w/ H&R spring on the rear wheels)

Thanks for your comments on my CL. I had a Civic like this with hydros back in 98 I like how you got yours clean, mean, and fresh.
phixion check out this movie called Initial D, the live action version. Its an anime in Japan thats really awesome but they made a live action movie version. I bought it on ebay for like 10 bucks awhile ago. i think u would get a kick out of it. blows fast and the furious out of the water. I think the new fast and the furious movie got its ideas from this series.
I doubt he knows anything about rotational intertia and that it is dependant on mass and radius. I've said enough to that mama's boy, he don't got any good disses back so it's up to you and flaco2 lol. I think you should get a Bimmer 330i or the 500 series. They've got plenty of power, they're sporty, luxurious, and good as a family car.
hhaha peep out my last post on my page to holla lmfao clean coupe by the way once again lol keep it up dont rice it out like hollas retarded ass lmfao peace....
kick @ss ride you got there man!! tight mods... by the way, tnx for the comment. ph16a engine is available here in the phils. civic VTI has that engine. for b16a engine is for civic SIR. the reason why we have only few options for mods. nice car though. later.

yea he is a friend of mine we like to joke around.....
i want awd or rwd with power. a v-6 or turbo is fine but v-8s are heavy and thirsty. i also need something that can haul some bambinos soon as i c im getting older and need money for other things. with any other car i get i want it to be sporty already so i wont have to do the suspension and other stuff. i told my wife all i would do was drop a aem cold air intake in it and a sub if needed.

nice civic looks pimp i like the seats and suspension looks tight hey is ur car auto? how much did it cost to get the rpm gauge on and were did they wire it to cause i wanna set up a tach on my car but a stock one on the stock gauge cluster so if u can help me out on were they wired it to then i can proubly do the same so yea haha
every guys dream is the sti or evo but those are serious cars and hard for everyday use. my wife can drive stick and i cant also. itll prob be hard to learn on such a powerful car. im liking the is300, g35 coupe, evo/sti, 330ci or a used m also. i told my wife she can pick cuz she has good taste but thatll be hard if she picks wrong.
whats your next car? i need something me and my wife can do.
i have nothin against you.....its just we have different styles where goin with your in to racing and im into show...i respect what your doin with your ride even more because your using a d series and not doin a swap..so i hope it goes the way you have it planned... keep up the awsome work..talk to ya later see ya
Pure Dopeness! keep up the work.

yea.. i love the way that my exhaust sits.. ive riped it clean off twice.. and had it fixed.. but its not going to be able to be fixed next time.. cause theres so much welds on it.
Thanks for all the other info, too, by the way. I only wish I had the budget you've got. BTW, I love that your car is mostly "go", with little added "show". It's cool to see a quick capable car with no chrome wheels, 2 foot high wings, well, you get the point. The real style is in keeping things looking simple, and subtlety is definitely underrated.
VP stands for "value package." Its a DX, plus cd player, AC, and in this case, side airbags. Locks, windows and transmission are all manual, which is good, considering all the issues I had with the power windows on my last car.
wow.. looks stock wheres the engine swap....cam gear on a stock internal car proven that it doesnt do anything with stock internals or stock cams.....just be short and simple say you have a stock car with wheels
hey.....i got a question
im looking at springs, about a 1.25" drop mainly the goldline springs and well im not worried about getting a camber kit cause the representative said i wasnt going to need one....but i have heard rumors about the bushing's seezing......u know if that is true and u got any suggestions....thanks buddy!

Very functional. Nice job on the subframe reinforcement. Nice choice on sway bars and tie brace and shocks. You really need some center caps for those black rims, I mean i dont like black wheels on your silver car, but just some black caps to hide the axle nut will help so much for aestetics.

naww i been planing this type of swap since the k20 too exspensive. plus since im going to school. when i got this motor it had oil all over the motor since it was removed from the 97 gsr. after the swap was done "i even put on my profile that the motor was getting clean and the engine bay too" that's what i did. i knew these people from speed image, gave me a ITR valve cover and spark plug cover. since the old valve cover was chipped and missing a spark plug cover. swapped over the new goodies, and clean down the engine block for it was dirty. i just resprayed the OE headers with high heat aluminum. since the rusty look was kinda gay ahaha:P i had made corrections earlyier that i made a mistake of the cam gear brand and i fixed it.
lol it does look like another car, i say the same ***** when i look at it now. im trying to get some red or blk door seals for the doors

Yeah, Mr. Orange is an interesting character. Honestly I don't even know what we're arguing about anymore, but he just keeps coming back for more, so I just keep giving it to him, lol...
I hardly need to do anything at all though, since he does a pretty good job of making himself look dumb. I even told him he had a nice car, so I don't really understand why it go to the point where it's at now...oh well...no big deal to me...what's new with you?

check it out i painted my car finally
Actually for me it wasn't enough. I wanted to enter the car for competition. See i'm not looking to make my wagon a racing car. I just wanted a little bit of everthing, but mostly loud music. But now i am selling the system to downgrade for now. I need the money.
this ignition thing turned out to be a hot topic. mach1cars.com is where i get all my advice and parts. he recommended i aslo get an under pulley system that would give me a gain up to 12 whp thru the whole powerband. the msd is cheaper but gives results that we seem to be unsure about. i didnt c any results from my nology wires so far.
I was meaning the underdrive pulley just for the powersteering (sorry). When you install the JRSC, it will run off of your altenator belt, and replacing your harmonic balancer. Also, if you go with the boost upgrade it will be turning your altenator a lot faster than stock. That way you wouldn't have to worry about your battery being drained. Anyways, keep up the good work!!
I appreciate the feed back Phix!!! I might go with a Momo steering wheel that I'm trying to get a hookup on. You know, when I pulled out my dash to get it done Red,, I noticed that the passenger airbag wasn't even there!!!!! I flipped when I found out.. I feel like going to the dealer that I bought it from to give them a piece of my Mind,,, I bought AS IS, so I guess it doesn't Matter.. I was going to remove it anyways.. I don't really care if I remove my factory steering wheel,,, I want to finish the whole Red & Black theme in my Interior!! It'is a Risk, But most of the shows I go to, that's all I see,,, Nice steering wheels in every single Car & Trucks too!! Keep your civic clean Dawg... I like that Type-R Grille, I already ordered one myself too, and my steering wheel is NEXT. Thanks Again >>>Later<<<
Thanx for sticking ur neck out for the d series engines man, finnally someone knows the potential. Hey man just letting u know im working up to what u got in ur car. Its sweet.
yeah, i'd love a 2.5rs. a guy who runs one at the local SCCA autocross events has me inspired to get one. lol. i was also looking at e36 M3's but the price for parts is probably a little more than what i want to pay. so that dream will have to wait a while.
If your an accomplished DIY'er by yourself you should be able to install it in 2 days or less. The only thing that took me so much time was installing the boost upgrade kit; mostly the wiring for the boost timing controller. Over all after the kit is installed you wont be disappointed.
I believe that you have a good base to start on with your engine not having AC. Also, I would probably lose the power steering or at least go with an underdrive pulley. Then you would be able to tell a big difference.
Thanks for the comments and keep me posted on how it turns out.

I'm in sunny San Diego buddy. As far as the ignition upgrade not being a necessity, I don't think it is either, that is, if you stay all-motor. I'd look definitely into upgrading the ignition for boosted duty.
After I saw that MuffinMan was running an external coil I was intrigued about how he had accomplished it, so I asked him. But I didn't get a reply. Then big K soda came around and I read in his profile that he had an upgraded ignition too.
I don't know exactly what he's running but he still has an internal coil, although aftermarket. From what I've researched these past couple of days Summit is the only place you can get a high-performance internal coil (although MuffinMan claimed to be running a Skunk2 at one time).
I've also gathered that all you need to do to run an external coil is get the right harness, or follow a wiring guide from an aftermarket hi-perf. ignition company. I'm planning to run a mix of ignition products. NGK Blues or Magnecor's, with an MSD Cap & Rotor, NGK Iridiums, and a Jacobs I.C.E. Pack and Jacobs coil, and a homemade 4 Guage earth-grounding kit. :)
If I ever make the money, :P I'll put concrete evidence on this controversial subject by dynoing my car before the upgrade, with an ignition tune-up, so the data won't be skewed.

The purpose for all the speakers is for powerful music.
nice choice with the s40, definately a cool car. i'm not sure what i want yet. possibly a subaru 2.5rs or another civic.
i c u guys are talking about my d16. im looking to upgrade my ignition with some msd parts. i heard they have a simple piggy back that would improve the spark and how many time it fires. what else should i look into?
The ignition upgrade is not recommended, but something that I did just for looks.
Pre JRSC the D16Y7 is about 93 whp, and after I getting around 160 whp (w/ DPIC) with the boost upgrade.
The installation didn't take no time, and is a snap. The instructions where detailed and is pretty much bolt on and go. I've had mine on for several years and haven't had the first issue.
Thanks for the comments. Later.

Hey phixion, I know what a N/A D16 is quite capable of power. I just don't think it was what he wanted as far as power. It is true They're are prob less parts to buy to upgrade the sohc. I don't believe that N/A is best for a sohc either. It is true that boost creates a lot of pressure but N/A apps would actually cause more stress. N/A cars tend to make more power up top at higher rpm. Especially with motors with bad R/S ratio's and high rpm, it would cause way more stress revving so high than a motor with higher boost at lower rpm. It's true he could make some power with a sohc but what it seemed he wanted, he would be better off with boost. Not saying it can't be done, for the amount of power you get with the amount of money you spend, I just think you're better off with boost. Just my 2cents
i didnt beat a z06, read the comment, the car came SECOND to a zo6 sorry i wasnt clear it was in a motor trend article, and you aint smokin that evo he's right on your @ss and theres no way you beat him. im sure your car handles great but you dont have the power to come out of turns to go around beating evo's and s2000's and i think you need to define performance pal half the ***** you got on your car is cosmetic, and trust me i know much more about REAL performance than you, i go to a hot rod school and i work on cars every day, basiclly all ive been saying is that your motor does not have the potential that some OTHER honda motors have and you know that
hey matt, not much going on here either. I'm just keeping things maintained till i either get a job for summer or sell the car for something else. I'd like to get into some auto-cross this summer if i'm in Rochester.
new grill and double fogs are dope.
d@mn you were right kid. i shouldnt have *****ed with that school bus it schooled me. speaking of research you should probablly look into the fact that my car finished second to the corvette zo6 in the slalom, but im sure you already knew that chap no but seriously do you think i should swap a d16y7 into my ride and do it up all motor?
the new grill looks awesome matt.
Whoever that is that posted (hate when it doesn't fully log you out) you've been watching WAY too many movies. The wires are an OEM replacement, they won't doything more than assure a clean constant electrical flow from the distributer and rotor cap, to the spark plugs. No performance gains from them, sorry.
Spoon is a brand that's exclusive to Honda of Japan. They sell overpriced performance and appearance parts. But in general though, a spoon is a utensil that you eat soup with. =P To Hondas, it's the equivalent to what Brabus is to Mercedes and Dinan is to BMW.

Mmmmm........tooo simple,but at least it's fast right?
nice u have alot of upgrades on ur car but u should have gotten a swap forget the D series and go with a B series motor
thanks for lettin me know where i can find those. yea mine right now have that jdm switch with them. ive been told to get the yellow ones and that they would look good but im not sure yet. thanks for the comments though. i still like your ride too. thanks again
Yeah you're right about the Prelude being offerred with a sequential transmission. I doubt that it would easily match up to the the 3.0-liter V6 in his Accord though, so that's why I told him that I don't even know of any transmissions he could use. I was trying to think of trannies that would bolt up fairly easily, and as far as I know the F/H series isn't compatible at all with any of Honda's V6 engines...I could be wrong though...but I'm guessing it wouldn't easily work...

From what I was told single cams are pretty quick with a turbo installed.

i am lowered like 2 inches in the front and raised 1 inch in the back. the hood scoop is only going to be around twenty dollars and i know how to fiberglass so ill mount it myself it will help the engine stay a little coller and run ia little better. i also like neons just a personal preference i guess. but any ways i like your ride it needs some tint though.

Oh, remember I inquired about your header dilema? I forgot to mention that there are a couple of options for a direct bolt-on for the D16y7. EBay brand, Ractive, and OBX. Not the very best in choices, but they should provide a decent gain over the factory exhaust manifold.
Neato, you got stickers. I like the location you chose to shoot your car. Tip, when you shoot your ride, your wheel should be straight or turned to the side you shooting. ;) Still clean, I want your fogs :P
As for detailing, I'm down if we got the time. I spent 5 hours with just me n' her, I waxed that azz real good. :) Probably put one more coat of wax this weekend. Keep up the good fight Matt.

Hi! Thanks for the tip on the harnesses. Got a nice ride too!
lol... but that it is the answer i'm looking for - by pushing it in.. haha...cheap.. i tried... tho i couldn't push it in.... o_O
well i was racing someone last friday and it started knocking and i was just like wtffff ...... so i took it home and saturday morning i checked the oil and well there wasnt any .. not one drop on the stick .... i was like WTTFFF cuz i had just checked it like a week before and it was fine (and i'm realllly good about changing the oil cuz i change it every 2500 miles)... my car has never burned oil so i have no idea where it went cuz there was no leaks when i changed it ...... so i changed the oil that saturday and headed to work ...... well i didnt make it to work haha ... i have a pic of the crack in the block i'll post up.
whats good man?..win anything recently on the tracks?..
yo homeboy, when you get a chance, I want to put DC headers, BUT, people tell me that DC don't make headers for my LX because of the CAT. being right in the front of the exaust manifold. They tell me to put EX headers but that I need to relocate my CAT. What do you think homie? Later....
do you know how people make their civic's antenna shorter? they cut it off or..? and how to change the turn signal to blink faster?

homeboy! I like how you welded your Reinforced plates for your rear swaybar. nice project. thanx for your comment and It'll be funny racing my car with air ride and T.V's in a track Too much wieght. Sad to say I left that scene, BUT, I enjoy seeing cars like yours. I'm trying to look good for show perhaps and also have a little sum sum on the end just incase you get a punk out there trying to act all hard and you smoke 'em...Don't you just love that? Peace!
Could you tell a big difference in handling when you added the H-Brace?
Whats up man. Thanks for the comment. Ya all JDM itr front's should have came hid equiped. I agree. I had to shave down a little on the plastic part of the bulb. Nice civic you got. Nice list of mods. I like your setup.
U were right about the intake, i took the airbox out like u and i got amazing pick up from 3rd gear and up. thanx for the great idea.
Nope, you haven't asked :)
I love the ride. Now keep in mind it isn't my dd, but if it was, i would still rock them. I'd recommend them.

Hi, thanks for visiting. Your car is very clean. I like it. Keep it up.
Hey man thanx for the tip, and srry for jumpin on the tranny tat quick, i just figured it slow u down. And i like youre idea of taking of the stock air box, does it work just as good as a short ram??
auto?
D@mn you love your blue. Clean lookin car from the outside, nice job on all your mods..
Hey Matt. Honestly, it was a huge pain in the butt to get to the two bulbs back there. actually this was my second attempt at it. i tried doing it a few months before and gave up because i couldn't get the climate control out to replace the bulbs.
This time, i followed the instructions from H-T up until the climate control. from there i kinda went on my own. I was able to remove enought screws to get the faceplate off and replace the bulbs without disconnecting the whole unit. I ended up putting it back together and leaving out a bunch of screws for the next time i have to open it up. lol.
LED's should look nice. i thought about buying those instead of the bulbs. i really would like my gauges to light up like the TSX gauges. How do you like the overlay?

do a mini me swap, drop in a y8 vtec head on this sucker, and you should be good to go. jrsc are no good, you can use your current manifold, get an adapter plate and make a custom turbo kit, for anywhere from 400 and up. my buddy build his turbo kit for $380. homemadeturbo.com . good luck with future mods, i still got lots of work to do to mine.

Thanks Matt for telling me what a S14 is and giving me the low down on all of the codes for all the chassis of all the different makes of cars hehe.

thats what im debatin on, i cant figure out what ima do about the side skirts, i need some serious help wit that
nah i was kinda difficult to find because i didnt know that theres no such thing as a usdm b16 auto and thats what i was lookin for at first. i just ordered a type r lip, thanx to your influence, i just have to see what ima do about the side skirts because the ones that i had on my car was molded, but i rip them off today but there is still alot of fiber glass on the fender

yo bro,how you?got ur msg there,there are certain things i can't elaborate further coz i live i n a place where any modification is completely illegal.But i see your indepth knowledge bout honda.
What i'll do is i send some stuff for you to read in your email.But keep the stuff to yourself.
As for the brakes things are different in your place and mine(though physics is the d-same throughout the world)Go read through alloy rubber brakes and you'd understand why it doesnt melt with a s2000 brake disc. Tatz latest technology for you.
As i've seen from most honda civic profiles they do the same stuff over & over.The common things.The honda civic makes meant for south east asia are different form the ones for europe etc.We have stuff here tat can make people go oohahh.I'll send you some stuff to read.Remember to keep it a secret.Ok?no offence to wat i've said.Happy New Year!

yo bro, my engine's a rare Vtec modified 24valve DOCH.Its called the frankenstein.By Honda.Less than 30 engines left in the world.It's powerful.Doesn't need a turbo to play the big boys.There's a vtec super booster type "37" attached to the engine.The brakes are modified brakes with metal imbedded into rubber to give better braking at high speeds considerably above 170mph.Doesn't wear off easily.Does't heat up fast.Your brake discs must be modified to the honda S2000's to accomodate the brake type.
nice ride. i love driving civics, must have been fun racing it hehe
Thx for the comments... i was wondering if u had any other suggestions that would be better than the h23/h22 for close the same price?
Thanks for the coments. Yeah, it kind of sucks that some b**ch's just dont care about how much pride was put into a project. But I decided to start over again. However it wont look like an accord anymore. Later - E-Roc

Nice Ride Yo. Check Mine
Wow that's so awesome Matt that you got out of those tickets scott free. I am very thrill for you hehe right on Matt! You played the cop like he was a yo-yo lol That will teach him to harass other drivers for no reason in the future haha, way to go homie, woot! :D Thanks for hittin me back, how is it going? Did you get the e-mail I sent you? Have a great night, take care, peace :D
pic 1 is hotttt. i wish my civic looked like that when i had one
thanks for commenting, actually i havent even had a computer tune yet so no dyno #'s yet, the machine shop who built it said somewhere in the range between 190-210 but yeah im sucking and smelling like gas for now so a tune is deff. on my to-do list.
thanks...your coupe is very nice too!!! and you got WIDE load of stuff in your car haha thats cool...whole list to read...keep up the good work on your ride bro!
never mind.. :) they don't fit..
hey, can 99-00 civic headlights fit on 96-98 civic?
Ok thanks, I will e-mail you so you can hit me up with your aim lol. You only had 3 in the last 4 years that is pretty good. I only have 2 in the past 2 years. How do you stand up to the man and avoiding getting points on your driving record and having your insurance going up, I'd like to know, because I just got a speeding ticket last month lol and it cost me $185 for the bail amount :( I hope it doesn't bring up my insurance, it's already high as it's. Well, thanks for hollering back at me. Have a great day, talkk to you soon, take care homie, stay cool cause it's starting to get hot again the past couple of days hehe later :D
hey man, its cool that you kept your d-series motor. i'm keeping mine i'd be a fool not to after spending 5 grand in the block. well peace out man
simple but unique. . . . like it alot. peace out!
hehe I know what you mean homie, it's can be a beotch sometimes to find the police when you need their assistance, it's always usually the opposite, they usually find you to give you a ticket of some sort of infringements lol, d@mn good for nothing donut sucking po pos lol, that's where you can find them usually at Dunkin Donuts or Krispy Kreme haha They are only good for citing you up and giving you an outrageous ticket that you can't afford to pay off GRRRRRRRRR and then you have to spend an entire day out of your busy life at the court to take care of it and then your insurance rate skyrockets beyond anything you can imagine, let'sjust say it goes up really REALLY HIGH lol I agree with you they need to restructure the whole dispatch call center system to make it more efficient to handle the people's needs. Unexperienced Teenage drivers I know how that is, I was a teenager once lol hehe so I can't be too hard on her even if it did happened to me, maybe if she was my age I would ask her if she would like to go and get a cup of coffee with me afterwards after everything was settled and all important information was exchanged of course hehe :D Thanks for going into detail into your unfortunate ordeal Matt, I really appreciate you taking your time to tell me about it. I want to apologized to everyone on this forum for going off-topic, this is a car forum btw, I am sure people don't want to hear me talking about these things on here, so I am really sorry ya'all. Maybe we can talk through instant message sometimes on Aim or Msn Messenger if you have those on your computer Matt? Have a good day, and be careful on the road, there are alot of wreckless drivers out there, take care homie, later :D
You must not know about those manifolds he has, there is over 30 countless stories about those manifolds cracking, mainly because they were built as a show header aka the obx header. The runners on the manifold like i said have a wall thickness that is thinner than a penny. Look at a penny, the wall thickness on my manifold is 1/8" steel coated with a ceramic coat, one section was added to improve flow and relocate the turbo and is not covered in this coating. As for my setup being temporary, this is how it will look until i can afford to do more work on it, im not hating on you, or that kid. im just stating the facts, ive done my homework and i know a *****ty manifold when i see one, mine was shop welded together because it was custom, his was machine welded and pumped out thousands by a minute. it wont be long before the welds, supports, or even the walls crack

Wow, sounds like it was a horrible accident, I'm glad you'realright and that the impact was on the passenger side and not the driver's side and that you didn't have passengers with you in the car when it happened because they could have been seriously hurt :'( I know what you mean, I would be really mad if someone side swipped my car too. Was this a young teenage girl who was an unexperience driver? How did it happened and on what street in San Gabriel? I was involved in a rear-end collision on W. Valley Blvd. about 2 years ago, this man driving a Honda Accord hit my Mazda Protege which I was driving at the time and it was completely hs fault he even admitted fault and said he thought I was stillmoving when I was completely stopped at a red light lol and he is also an insurance agent too haha :D So he told me his insurance company would paid for the damage and am glad I didn't whiplash from being rear-ended lol that was funny, it made me smile :D I initally called 911 for the SGPD, but the operator said they would come out to the accident scene if it's was only a minor accident, unless someone was seriously injured or killed and needed an ambulance. How did you get the CHP to come to the accident scene to take down a report for you do you have a friend who works for the CHP and what number did you called for the CHP is it 911 too lol :D 2 weeks is a long time to wait for your car to be fixed, did her insurance paid for car rental during that 2 weeks too? and isn't $2500 dollar enoguh so you don't have to paid the deductible? My decutible is $1000 if the damage is more than $1,000 I don't have to pay the deductible I think that's how it works lol or at least that's what my agent told me :D A Lexus SUV is a really nice car, her parents must be wealthy lol Thanks for the 411 on the tires and wheels. I will use it to decide what tire/wheel package I'm going to get and I have a question is wheel just another name for rims or are they completely differently, sorry if I sound stupid for asking that hehe, I'm not very car salvy lol Have a great day bro, take care and be careful out there aight, keep it thuggin I'm out, later homie peace :D
so i dont have the money to blow on a crappy SSAC manifold or a nice tubular or ramhorn style, get off my back. my setup is temporary and it isnt tuned yet, but you feel you gotta hate. how is my setup unreliable???? SSAC is SH!T!!!!!!!!!!! READ THE FORUMS!
Okay!! Your right about the JDM. I meant to put style (because of the black housing) behind it not noticing and sticking my foot in my mouth. Thanks for the heads up. Also i didn't know BMW M3 sideskirts were twisted my buddy had one and the side skirt was the same but mine twisted in the middle but if your right hey I don't know much about BMW.
Your Civic is quite a sleeper Nice. That what i want to do with my RSX-S but everything is very expensive. I wanted to go with the H23 Bluetop(Sir-T "stationwagon") because 1. not everyone does this swap 2. about 1600 dollars less for 6lbs of Tq and 7 Hp less plus you can't really do much with the H22R since its put together so well 3. lower compression for turbo (I know not much but better than high comp.) Thanks for the Correction(D@mn I feel Dumb)!!

Hey Matthew!! Got my wheels!! They look sooooo good I'll show ya pics soon! Talk ta ya later!
question some girl who just added her 93 tenth ann says shes got a cb shift boot not shore about that
i know what your saying about the wings drag and all but ive had mine on almost a year and i have know dents or risen spots in my trunk but before i put t on when i got to about 120 or 125 the rear ennd would start to sway side to side and ever since i put it on its solved that problem so it makes me feel muck safer at that speed so thats why ivw kept it up there so long and me and my buddies go to the local drag strip like every week and i can tell alot of down force is applied because used to when i drop it into second it wouldn;t bark but know it dose so it helps on this application but your point is well proven your ride is a good for the type racing it looks like you do
Yeah I really have no idea what Accord Racer was talking about...he did change his profile though, so I guess he finally realized that he was mistaken...
Anyway...I'm getting really sick of all the crap on this site...I mean I guess it's my fault, I don't have to leave comments for people, but seriously, if I see something posted on somebody's page that is obviously wrong or fake, I'm going to say something about it...and usually I do it in a polite way! What gets me pissed off though is when these morons write back and tell me that I'm the one who doesn't know what I'm talking about...that's when I just let loose on people...
But geez...it's just a website, I shouldn't get this worked up over it...
Anyways, your car is looking good, as always...mine on the other hand is just becoming an eyesore...it seems like it's getting rustier and crappier by the day...and I haven't even had any thoughts of trying to modify it further for close to 4 months now...I'm thinking that I'm going to drive it this winter and then unload it in the fall...probably look for a Civic or Integra or maybe just go in a whole new direction and get a truck...we will see..
But anyways...keep up the good work!

Also i forgot to tell you that your car looks awesome without any major bodykits, it looks like a sleeper. DEFINITELY!!! like those foglights. i am planning to get one too.
Hey ssup Phixion, a feel a lot better now with ur comments. I agree with you on your thinking of: "One isn't harder than the other, and being able to smack a "better" engine with an underdog is a hell of a lot more fulfilling type of feeling in the end!" You are the kind of tuner that i would like to ask advice from. Oh i have to ask you this do you know how much is it gonna cost me to let a shop do a Auto-to-Manual transmission on my car? FYI i live in Hawaii.
got those pix
anytime. actually the bulb thing is my next project. i ordered some red bulbs from some site i found and i'm gonna change out the gauge cluster and climate control bulbs over Thanksgiving Break in a couple weeks. Goodluck with the grounds, it's not too bad, only crappy part is crimping the terminals to the wires.
Hi Matt, hehe I know what you're trying to say homie lol ;) wow cool $800 for a complete tire and wheel package from Rota not a bad price there! what size are your wheels and tires? $75 to paint and installed the rear lip not too bad. I had my rear bumper resprayed and eyelids painted with original Honda factory color for $200 not too bad I guess too :D What bodywork did you have done on your car, were you in a fender or bender? Hope it wasn't too severe, it's good that your insurance company covered the bill for painting your front lip and sideskirts, that's what an insurance company should do. hehe Thanks I had an awesome Halloween, hope your was great too, later homie, peace. :D
just one more thing "good thing" if you put that super charger and the after mkt cam shaft you will probally have the fastest car around were ever you stay cause that is going to be with the cam shaft alone like 50 h s not count th super charger well good luke trying to hold it in the road
ok guy the header thing your right about a picture on a site confused me because it had the 4-2-1 system all seperated. but when i said headers to start with i dint mean multile headers i meant a 4-2-1 system so i'll say it again i was wrong .
but the one thing i will argue with about is that it more than just pressing the petal to race even if you have an auotmatic it takes more than that cause you got shift timing and clutch release to get the beat shift and a whole lot of other stuff but. its like this say this is the the conversation "hey waht else are you going to do to your car" "well i thought about getting some headers"
gramatically correct or you could say " well iam going to get a header" still gramatically correct but sounds really gay. so i give you props on the header thing
one last thingthe other guy said something about the spoiler slowing you down not saying its wrong but i have it for down force cause when a front whell drive car gets over about 110 or 115 the rear end will start to go side to side. that is the reason why i have it

how are the piaa super plasma gt-x bulbs? im thinking about getting them but theyre not dot approved. i wont get pulled over or anything rite?
hey matt. for my ground wire kit i choose to use 8 gauge wire because i though working with 4 gauge might be a little difficult because it's so bulky. i used gold plated terminals from Best Buy, like $2.00 a box. As far as noticing a difference, there is some. my lighting seems to be a little brighter, in general the engine feels a little smoother. In general is a nice and cheap electrical upgrade. i know on higher end cars it even adds horespower from what i understand. but really i just did it because i was bored in the dorms last winter and needed a project while 4 feet of snow surrounded my car. :-P
i'm thinking about upgrading it by replacing the 3 main grounds which i left stock. i'd use 4 gauge wire for that though.
i hope that helps.

Hehe, I am sorry that you didn't go for the swap, it would of look nice on your car, thanks alot for the store information Matt. Is it $450 for the wheels and tires package too or just the rims? How much did your Type-R front and rear lip spoiler cost homie? And how much to get them painted at the shop or did you do it yourself? Thanks for your help, have a great halloween, hope you get lots of treats more tha tricks lol hehe take care Matt :D
hey whats up bro...i got some new pics of my accord with the new rims and the drop..check em out,latez

black on chrome lip, YESSS =D i love the look, nice and clean, good work bro - eat the rice, not burn it =)
how many horsepower under the hook?:D
hey man your car is sick. i mean i usually only see civics with like a intake on them or something lame, but i mean u went all out. nice choice on suspension too. do u thin you'll ever put a turbo on that or what?
d@m, i never see AE86's in Colorado, any style... if i saw one Takumi style i'd probly have a heart attack, cuz I luv that car
nice ride. Always loved the coupe! Much respect. Engine mods are impressive to say the least. I have one question though. U seem to have your car sit nice n low....do u experience any negative camber?? cause my car i got 4degrees of negative caber on the rear..... Is it your adjustable coil overs that does the trick or did u get an adjustable camber kit installed?? love the car n love the colour. YOur doing a great job. keep up the phat work n kick ass in those races with style! PEACE
Nice and purpose built. Not all gay and flashy and ricey. You're having fun with it. I like it a lot. I do hate slush-o-matic transmissions though... but that's okay...
oh btw this is still the same person texas_hatch the red one ahah sorry im on this name because i forgot my email so i cant log into that other one
but yeah ill see if i can get those falkens

Thanks for stopping back by bro. I was thinking about putting the same setup i got on my 17's the ES100's. Ive tried Nitto and they suck bog time. Havent tried hankooks yet.
Thanks for the comment on my sus. I only did it like that couse its a real great way to get a nice balnce with great handle without gowing real broke! I wanna do more to my ride but with my family and the rising cost of Ca. Its gonna be placed on hold!
Right now im just trying to find some tuning pals around cali to chill with sonce the few I knew moved out a Cali.

Thanx for checkin tha ride. Dont worry the fendors are gone due to my wide body kit upgrade. I saw your ride I see you are very serious about supension. thats me too. Your car must handle like a gocart. I wish new Jersey had roads like yours. Yo how much HP you get with that? I wanna change my motor , but if I could build it instead and get decent power I would.
yeah thats what im building mine for
road racing not drag
i like the thrill of taking turns a lot fast as hell
better than taking it to the track
but yeah i just got my springs today
and im still looking to get some other suspension
parts to make it real stiff
but anyways thanks for the comments

What about the ladies and the weather Matt ;), those 2 things make it is so nice to be livin out here in Southern California, wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world, visit maybe but here is where I will always be homie, my heart is in L.A forever. What mods have you done to your car lately, holler back and let me know, take care Matt :D
mine was and automatic made it 5 speed
Thanks jjmajed. Umm, I like living in CA i guess, I've seen nicer places but CA is my home, lots of great places here and we have some of the best driving and cruising roads around as well as mountain roads. Don't know what else to really say about living here... =\
sup see your still autox'ing.. I wanna get into that but my suspension setup still sucks... you wanted some light rims? you shoulda went with the SSR comps only 11lbs for 16x7's I think or the 5Zigen FN-10+R or something lol, there only 13lbs... but still got a nice car since last I saw
You have got an awesome car! How do you like living in califorina?
i think ive seen it either on the 5fwy or 134fwy, or maybe in burbank or glendale, but im not sure..i have bad memory..lol
the thing that is obvios to everybody is that you cant beat an evo. you couldve started b4 the evo. usually slower cars are started first in some races, to give them a chance in racing other faster and better cars.
nice civic man, its lookin good, i think ive seen dat civic around my area, u from so cal? around los angeles, well anyway check out my accord sumtime, latez
smoking evos sounds kinda silly to me. even if they have to brake at a turn and you dont they handle extremely well and have power to spare and will still pass you. i think thats crap that you can take them. comparing civics to evos is apples to oranges.
your ride is looking very nice good luck with the racing thx for all the comments, im trying to make my car better, but i dont even have a job yet, or my license (but i still drive my car everywhere) but yah your car is pimpin keep it up! good luck with the races!
I ended up winning an integra SE/GSR rear sway bar for 10 bucks. i think i'm gonna buy the endlinks from Beaks. Do you know of any other LCA manufacturers u'd reccommend? otherwise i'll probably just get the Omnipower model from jhpusa.com
Hey Bud, Returning the mad Ca love ya showed me!! Sick ride man,Is it strickly for racing? Or do ya every day it like me! Im out here in the Bay, were ya at? Holla at me.... Oh and the rims are nice ;0)
Get the JRSC. I installed mine recently and it's definately worth it. Especially for autocrossing.
thats nice to know ill make sure my little brother gets the messeg!!
p.s. idot thats what my little brother thinks of your car
p.s. idot thats what my little brother thinks of your car

You're all performance...very nice bro ! Not much of a show car but it's not really important. What matters is you're having fun driving your car not just for display. For me I liked the way you set it up no doubt about it. That is one of my plans... be active in the racing events here in Alaska. But not before my car is all souped up. Keep up the good work and driving bro.
hey matt, thanks for the advise on tires. I'll have to look more into tires once i find a set of nice wheels. I'd like a set of HX wheels, but people sell them for $400 and they are used! so that's probably out.
did you notice a difference with the H-brace? and Rear tie bar? i've been debating getting tie bars because i'm not sure how much of a difference they make. i'm bidding on a rear sway bar now, i still need to find endlinks for it and LCAs. doesn't help that i'm back at school and not working either. :-P
I've also been considering HID. but i'm lost as to what the best option is as far as converting. any reccomendations?
anyways, your car is awesome as always. and goodluck to you too!
Kevin

I do think the red looks good, now I just need to find the time to get the rest of the grille's painted red. I'm at a standstill right now, I'm graduating in a few weeks and have been working on my final project. Hopefully it pays off. Take care.
No new mods lately unless you consider a new battery a new "mod." haha! Replaced the original battery that came in the car from the factory 6 years ago. yeah, last me that long even with my foglights and audio system setup, and even after the system drained out the battery once about a year ago... :-x Pulled off the AC Autotechnic oil filter block adapter so i can toss it through AC's window (only 10 miles from me) because that part is a useless POS that did nothing for me but waste away about a half quart of oil due to leaking from it's crappy gaskets and over-sized design. =\ I'm custom making a hookup kit that will mount to the stock oil pressure switch bung in the engine block and via a TEE piece, allow me to retain the stock pressure switch AND also hook up the oil pressure sender unit at the same time. I'll mount the sender to the firewall and then run a short coper line from it to the TEE piece. And then oil press. gauge functionality and NO leaks! :D Finding both BSP --> NPT and NPT --> BSP adapters is a PITA. Next on the agenda after that, haha I dunno! Finally some rain dumping in So. Cali today and thus I discover how WELL my new Hankook tires stick even to wet pavement. Azeins Sports hated wet pavement. These tires are a real dream come true, no lie! Happy tuning everyone!! :)
IronMaN, I wanna see your car, or at least know what you drive! You seem know a lot about hondas and kits and motors and stuff so I'm guessing whatever it is, it's pretty fly, lol!

all civic's remove disc brakes and put drums they are better...and automatic transmitions ,if you want to be a racer!!! like phixion racing series :P
whats with this mixalis guy? he makes some seriously uneducated comments...
what can i say bout your civic phixion... it looks race ready, love the lightweight alloys... oh one thing though, i personally feel u should colour that strip on the side of the car and your door handles the colour of your car...

you have an advantage with the non vtec engine i the track.and without any engine mods is not even sure.in a race side by side-drag race you eat dust from all vtec,
i ask about the engine power,and not what you like to do on the track.. i see that every time you answer, you explain in a way that what you have is better that others in here.and be more polite pls,you are not alone in here .
i ask your opinion and nothing else.you keep be ironist.if you are going to continue tell me and i will stop asking you questiions.i thought you have the knowledge thats why i ask you.

Which header should I get for my accord because I am looking for one. Any else should I upgrade for my accord?

lol explain who b is. it's not like the regulars who don't remember. *rolls eyes. and as for the mugen bumper. it's not 100% mugen. unless you bought the bumper (for 96-00 civic) and changed it so it fixes your model. i think it's just a well done imitate of a cool looking mugen bumper.
man u better stop be so ironist. go to site http://www.teamrushmotorsport.com/index.html?lang=en-us&target=d95.html and see the white civic 96-98 model with exactly the same mugen bumber as mine...i put the picture in my site's picture too for u to see it.
i put the green filter now ,the last 2 weeks.that bumber is mugen 100%,explain who is B and tell me what i must do with the fly wheel...

''VTEC is slower off the line and has worse pickup than non-VTEC. '' can u explain this?a vtec sohc how is worst that a non vtec? my father have a 90 civic 1,5l non vtec and i can see the difference in power with mine...
Hi Matt, how are you homie? What new mods have you made to your car recently? How is it going? I just had my rear bumper and side mirrors respray because it had alot of marks on it, and also added JDM ABS eyelids to my Accord. Have a good day, hope to hear back from soon, take care. :D

car's in the shop to fix the accident damage in the front passenger corner. both amber corners are getting replaced with the JDMsh!t corners.
Hi Matt, thanks for answering my question in detail homie :D Aww your g/f's friend is a huge fan of Avril too, wow maybe me and her can hook up lol What's her name and where is she from? :D Thanks for hooking me up with the shops too, very much appreciated. Your car is looking superb, I don't see anything wrong with it. Have a good labor day weekend Matt, take care, don't drink and drive :)
I just noticed that you don't have a header or full exhaust and your plans don't reflect an upgrade. Is that something that will change? If so what's the game plan? 'Cuz as far as exhaust is concerned were in the same boat.
You cant picture a R34 front bumper on a civic like myne.... think again ! LOOKS CRAZY ! let me know what u think ?
nice ride man.keep up the goodness
Hey new pictures are up of my Civic/Integra conversion... check em out!
I love your car. I haven't had time to do anything else on mine. I DO need to update my pics, though. Just working and going to classes all summer long. In about a month, I'm going to change the headlights. Keep it up, man. Oh yeah, I bought cold air intake and was going to get it installed but the guy said he had never put it in a 02 Civic and said it might result in my 'check engine' light to stay on... know anything about that? Thanks. ~Nina
definitely d-series pride!!! i'm glad you're pushing your dx to its NA capabilities... you get lots of respect from me!!!
u think that car can smack my lude ???just askin
Hey You, Matt!! I know I've been busy to I'm always sleeping at normal hours now () : (

thx for ur comment. appreciate honesty
hey i got another question...sorry to always bother you..but i keep goin to forums and other sites tryin to figure out pricings for proting and polishing engines and i never get any luck....do u have any ideas on prices for that...or most of all for a d series motor?...and maybe addin better pistons and whatever else, what should i get?..if your not sure then dont swet it...im askin you cuz you seem to know alot of what your talking about......thanks
a man peep the new pics my car fits under a semi trailer lol i was wonderin about it ohh and the steering response with all the bars is awsome i couldnt ask for a better suspension setup i can get through anything
Hi Matt, that is so cool, sounds like you live the life of a rockstar, alot of traveling and touring. :D Speaking of rockstar, I see Avril tonight and tomorrow too yay lol at the Greek Amphitheater in Griffith Park if you have heard of it? I'm going to try and meet her and get her autograph that is if the stupid security lets us near her, last year I saw her down in San Diego at the Cox arena and waited outside in the cold for 2 hours and then they told us to dispersed or else they would arrest anyone who stays, yeah whatever bunch of crap lol, I never got to meether though after all that waiting Wow I never been to the places you mention except for Rowland Heights lol Doesn't all that traveling you do put alot of miles on your car real fast? You must take really good care of your car for it to still be performing at its peak. No, I don't think you ever did hook me up with the shops you know and trust around San Gabriel, if you could give me the names of the shops, I would be really grateful. Have a good day Matt, thanks. :D
lovin' those seats!!!
im thinking of painting it white or SI blue im not sure yet
Hi Matt - In10Sive here, I asked you about the airbox/filter....go have a look at my car - only one pic, will add to it soon......
Why the new RLCA's? Was the HID conversion worthwhile with oem headlights?
Thankx, you have done your homework. Know any shops that sell candian b16? I still dont't know what to do but, I do need to start somwhere.
Hey, thanks for the comments. Yes, your friend is correct, Recaro does manufacture the 'lude seats in certain years, though. The swap was not necessariy easy, had to fabircate and weld come bracketry, but I like them a hella lot better than the stock single pole headrest kind. But hey, love your Civic, and keep up the good work.

thanks bout the manual..i will look for one..dont have no credit card or nothing to order one online tho...
hey, thanks for the info on the del sol sway bar. i have another question though. i'm planning on doing a turbo set up instead of a swap. and i realized i'll be increasing the horespower significantly, but will the auto tranny take well to say 200hp max? i saw that you plan ona level 10 torque converter, would i need one? and where can i get one. thanks
Hi Matt, thanks for the advice. I will be well-informed when looking for a air filter for my car now. Wow, it sounds like you do get around Southern California Matt. :D Do you race professionally? Since you said you're in between Arcadia and Sierra madre then I think you're in Pasadena, am I right? ;) Have a goodnight and a good day tomorrow homie :D
I have 2 teaser shots up now of the 4dr if you want to check em out
I've been doing lots of research into my next car and I think I've decided on a similar setup as your current, except with a K20A2 or a K24. I think I'll have the money to complete a nice and very powerful track car within the next 2 years and the EK may very well be my next project.
I love my BMW and my RWD and I plan to keep it as my daily beater, but I cannot justify spending big $ on tracking a BMW and replacing parts that are 3-5x as much as a Honda.......to be continued

I also have a d series engine and couldn't get a a straight answer to my question. If you built up a d series and lightly boosted it, or transplanted a b1c type r , which of the 2 upgrades would have better longevity, and still be smog legal? And if you were to stay auto what can you do to strenthen the d series tranny?
heh...its cool...but i was reading about the motor sizes and was remembering what i saw from one site...then typed it in but then i saw another site...after u corrected me...i figured it was wrong though..and i dont fully trust websites either..just that one seemed pretty close to what i think the cars should be......but id like to get a 2000 civic catalog...should all honda places have em?
well i figured you would beat my car...but when you brought up the motor itself both bein stock..i just figured the ex would be faster than dx..and my mistake on the motor size..heh..plus i plan to get rid of alot i put into the outside of my car...im liking the more stock look now...
to be more specific go here..http://www.leecao.com/honda/civic/1998cspec.htm
Hi matt, thanks for telling me where you got the decals and stickers. Also I am going to take your advice of using a 75% water mixture and 25% coolant mixture, when you buy Coolant directly from the Honda dealer isn't the coolant already premixed for you? What air intake system do you suggest I get for my car? Btw, what part of the San Gabriel Valley do you live in, Pasadena, San Gabriel, Alhambra, El Monte? Thanks, and have a good day homie :D
are you sure?..i mean i dont want to say your wrong...but i know that the DX HP has 106@6200 RPM with torque of 103 lb/ft@4600 RPM and the EX has 127@6600 RPM with torque of 107 lb/ft@5500 RPM..and my engine size is 1590 cc and yours is 1493 cc, but the deck, standard engine bore, stroke, and engine rod length are the same..but the compresion height of pistons are different..mine would be 1.154 and yours would be1.181 inches..im not listin the rest thats the same..but the only other thing thats different is the cylinder head volume where mine is 32.8 cubic centimeters and yours is 34.6 and that mine is V-TEC and yours aint..just the motor itself wouldnt you think the EX is faster..AGAIN..i dont wanna say your wrong and start some argument or w/e..cuz i like your car..and your car most likely is faster cuz youve done more and its lighter..plus i thought the V-TEC gave it more of a jump..cuz i can feel the jump it gives
Hi Matt, are those stickers or vinyl decals on your window, they look really cool. Where did you buy them at? Also I want to clean around the tip of my exhaust pipes, do you know what I should use and where I can buy the cleaning solution. Thanks for your help, have a great weekend. :D
love the car...just curious...on the dx engine with what u done to it..how u think it would do against my car..i know mine aint much..i was just curious...but anywho..keep up the good work
thanks for checking up and for the comment. congrats on being the featured ride! keep me updated as always, later matt.
New suspension pics VERY soon! Picked up some silver Omni Power RLCAs, and ordered a Cusco rear lower tie-bar (finally) which get's delivered today. Also gonna throw the Circuit 8 wheels back on for everyday driving for the meantime till I figure out what tires I'm gonna get for the "16's. My Azenis sports are just about at the cords, passenger front has a nail in it (which I RACED on last weekend, LOL!) and have been driving around with all week since then, holding strong though. Might go with Hankook Ventus RS2 tires instead of the Falken Azens RT-615's since they might not have my size made till as long as December, ugh! D@mn Falken!
Thanks for your message. I am slowly adding more parts to my Accord. I just put in an Exedy clutch kit and Fidanza Flywheel. Great grabbing power and quicker takeoff. Take care man. Still an awesome car!
*Congrats* for being the featured ride! Looks nice like always!
Congrats, been a long time since I've added to your profile. Your new radiator looks great. What's that red anodized thing on the hose? How's the tranny holding up too in the blue octopus :p ? Keep up the progress.
NICE. Very nice. I totally appreciate it.
Congratulations from one Accord owner to another, on your ride being featured ride of the month Matt, she is looking good, keep doing what you are doing. :D
No, I didn't have time to attach it completely. there r 3 gaps, 1 at the rear( cause it was slightly banded during shipping) and 2 at the end of two sides, though they r small. I tried the way like you did, lined it up with the bumper, but it made the end 2 gaps even bigger. so I lower two sides and rise the rear. I took the idea from den racho's car http://www.hondashowoff.com/profile.php?id=4664
then I had two bolts secured under the rear part of lip. Now, it's real tight but not fit. I will make it fit when I paint it. 8)

hey. just wondering. does that del sol rear sway bolt right up? i'm planning on adding one and want to get an idea of how the install will be. i noticed your not happy with the megan racing LCA's and their bushings. is it possible to just put in say energy suspension bushings instead of buying new LCA's? anyways, car looks awesome as usual. keep it up man.
Not yet, I gonna wait for the end of my summer school to fix these problems. I think you were right about them. but the new thing is that I installed the Type-R rear lip~ yeah... I had two new pic of my rear lip, check it out.
Thanks for checking out my Accord...sorry about all the "chrome" incedents. I didnt know they actually wernt chrome...haha oh well im getting chrome rims soon. Yeah the exhaust looks pritty bad and it makes this weird pounding noise that you can just barelly hear when you are standing behind the car. Ill have to check with Honda on that if they will replace it free...I love the wood trim in my car too, you rarelly see Accord's with them on the doors AND centre concol. Anyways your Civic is really nice, you've done alot of work to it! looks like you drive it like a Honda should be driven too! Good luck on your future plans...keep me posted!
Kick *** car man! Great job. Congrats on the car of the month.
You're on the front page again, awesome man, cars still looking good.
The 4door is now running 16" Sprint Hart CP's. Looks a hell of a lot better now. Just gotta get pictures up of it. Also, it was just repainted the same stock color, and all body parts re-fitted. Plus, the front mount intercooler and front bumper are fixed up and painted to where all the air goes directly to the intercooler.

You've given hope to us D-series automatic drivers. Looks good, be sure to dyno it after the supercharger and post results!
IronMaN, :D
Yeah, that's where I saw the D2 stuff as well, though I've heard about them the past few years, I haven't heard bad about them though what little I have heard...
I'm going to be getting a radiator cooling plate from PasswordJDM, I wanted the one that Signal Auto makes/sells, but it's $100, and well yeah a cooling plate is a cooling plate right, so the $70 PJDM one should be fine I'd think/hope...
That engine pic is false, haha! I should post a NEW one up today in fact, but that short ram is looong gone, I run the stock airbox with a K&N drop-in filter. It's great because on the Y7 D16 motor, the airbox sits atop the throttle body. No piping or anything in between the 2, the box attaches directly to the T/B, so it's about as direct of an airflow as one can get. It has much better throttle response (esp. at the mid to high end, Honda low end is helpless mostly) than my shorty ram had. I'm actually selling the A'PEXi filter from it today, lol! I hope I can get the aupercharger soon too. :x
Thanks for the comments! =D

Hey Matt, Yeah those are new pics i took them yesterday after i put my new lights on, Thanks , but I'm still jealous of your camera skills () ; ) Talk ta ya later!
yea thats tru i might look into that sway bar but im going all benen since there not around anymore and im gettin them really cheap for how much they really cost but i wanted to know if u know where the x-brace might go
Hey, I got my new tail lights and put new pics on my page, Let me know what ya think! Talk ta ya later!
I'm going to give the Hankook RS2 tires a shot as soon as I sell my old Kumhos that are taking up space in my basement. I'm not ready to jump to Hoosiers or Kumho 710s. My times are getting better, but I think going from 15" to 16" wheels with sticky tires will help bring me closer to the Mini Coopers in H-stock.
I CANNOT decide on my real project car for road racing/street prepared autoXing, but I've narrowed it to a Miata, Z3 1.9L, or my most logical BMW E36 325i/is. I really like my RWD.

Bah, time for new lower control arms, my Megan Racing arms are toast after the crappy bushings they put in them went to heck and started failing where the shock fork connects to them. Deciding between Omni Power RLCAs or the purdy purple SRR Racing RLCAs, hmm...

Ahh i see really humm cool interesting do u think my strunts and shocks coul dbe soem sort of reasons as well cuz i have thee Tokico Adjustable white shocks and i left it onlevel five (1/soft --- 5/stiff) n i havent adjusted then to be at a level 3 is what i really wante just habvent done it yet cuz the back ones its hard to adjust it since the metal frame of thebody unit blocks it so ill have to drill a hole to be able to use a screw driver to switch it to the 3 level or some thing and hum sway bars ? strunt bars whats the differnce in the two ? please let me know. and thanks wish i coould see ur ride in actionin on the tracks and see how u make those tight turns and etc i didnt know about tires screeching is losing controll how about drifin ? *laughs* im reall ynuts here huh? well getback to meand thansk again

thanks, man. that's a lot of help! I will see if I can fix it like the way you said. then I can save some $$.
that's good then, the lip you have now is more secure. and it make ur car lower than the first one.
my lip looks more like ur first one. 8|

So you've made it into track events now!!! That's great. I haven't done any track events yet, but I'm corner working to save credits for free days at the track next spring/summer/fall. Your car still looks great.
I've been autoXing as much as possible with my BMW in H-Stock with Philly/DC/Richmond sanctioning bodies and I'm getting better, but the Mini Coopers are still destroying me. I might stay H-stock or give STS a try, but I'm not sure yet. I'm hoping to own another car for my track/autoX car in Dec. for next season and just use my 318 for daily driving. We'll see what happens.

Sorry to hear your first lip was stolen. I'm worried about mine now. Unlike the OEM stock lip, it only has two screws are fastened at the end of each side. It's so easy to unscrew them in a few minutes. 8| I'm wondering how many screws the rear lip has.

yeah it suprise me too i just asked if they sell it and they do. naw i just got the clear lense ones. reason why is because the clear fog lense will look better, instead of the yellow. but oh well im happy with oem fogs:P. well the front sway bar i got for free, it came off of a 97 civic ex 4dr. im still getting the h brace. hey imma make my car have a very good suspention, so that your not the only one on HSO hahah:P
ahh ise it its the H brace eh hmm cool hope they got that for my ride heh or is it realy some thign i should get ? humm adn the lower arm? hmmimnot to knowledgeable on this but id liek to learnmore about it but so far i lovemy ride it handle sbetter than th fist red one i had thanks to the tokico shocks and strunt bars
hey man i have one question ahh humm what that called what ya got under ur car the blue thing is it liek a strut bar but for the frontimwonder if they got that for my car i love the way it handles in cornering cu zmy car body unit doesnt tilt when i make a fast sharp turn eventhe wide turns i can hear a screeeching soudn as i make that turn going 25 -30 mph to me its cool ha ha altho i got careful not to slide off the road or soem thignbut its doign well so far i just wna play a bit in the tracks or a huge parkignlot but im just icky about he cops u know damn those mofo'ers! but lete knwo when u get this message thanks
Ha ha...yeah, me and "civicfever" don't get along too well...I mean I don't care if he wants to put chrome wheels and such on his car, it's not my thing, but it's up to him...but I just can't stand seeing someone put stuff on their profile so blatantly stupid (the "turbo spoon engine" thing); I just had to say something, ya know?
But anyways, yeah thanks for the comments on my car. Actually I recently got in an accident, and the front end was repaired with OEM parts, so my headlights are now gone... :'-( For the moment I'm sporting clear corners, I was thinking I might take this opportunity to upgrade to the JDM-style headlights, since I've been wanting to anyway...and I'm about ready to order shocks and springs and put an exhaust on, so hopefully my car will be looking quite a bit better here in the near future!
Anyways, your car is looking great as always! If I were to do up a Civic coupe it would probably end up looking a lot like yours! Keep up the good work man, and good luck with the auto-crossing!

i bouht my fogs from the honda dealers, for quiet cheap, because i know somepeople their, i just gotto wait for them to come in.
yeah for my slip streams, i had to slightly modify the crv caps so that it wont come of so easly. so it really tight and snug.
i really dont like following people like getting motors that most people have. i rather save up foor the big guns, like the k20a. that gonna ripp my wallet apart. i have to save $5500 for just the motor. it will be well worth it. maybe along the lines i get a turbo for it, and make it insanely fuking fast. b16/b18 wont stand a chance against the k20a in my hatch ahhaha, it will just be murder.
even though im saving for the motor, im upgrading my suspention, like front sway bar, and shyte like that. thanks for the comment foo! i still loving your suspention!

Hey good lookin out on the rims! Thank you! I think I decided today to leave my fenders, I think it would be too much for me if i changed them. Now I can do something else instead though! Talk ta ya later!
Where's IronMaN? I miss his comments. :( I got another one of your favorite Bride seats, lol! =P I've always wondered what you drive though...
Yeah the chrome is ok with the white I'm not into the super bling () : ) just a lil shiny,i found these black rims that i'm going to get and get rid of the chrome on mine and then put in black mesh grille inserts, I can't decide on a body kit at all I'm pretty picky. I'm over in Germany right now so it kinda sucks when i order stuff for the car. Once i get done i just want it to be black and white and black chrome! Yeah i'm workin towards show quality. How long have you been workin on yours? It looks really good!
NICE Civic!!!!!! Really really nice I like that you are keepin it clean. Thanks for the comments
hey i got some updated pics of my car since the new omni coilover kit, and paint come check it out then tell me wat u think

Real nice ride man, I really like it. I know my ride isn't going to be real fast with all the show factors going on... I really just want it " faster" than what it is, bc its slow as balls... and I have a 454 big block in my truck so its hard to compensate for the loss of power when I drive the car.

Respecting the D-Series pride. Made me think 2x's about swapping mine. & yea i live in NY so a manual transmission is just asking to have bad days if you drive in the city. Avg speed is like 5mph. Plus mine is a daily driver. I much rather have an automatic.Maybe a much stronger car like a Subaru WRX Sti Or a Evo 9 might do the trick. Dropping a car out here also means back to the repair shop every weekend. NY is Pot Hole Heaven. So far i like the car. very nice. Keep up the good work.
I see you're getting a McCulloch HID conversion for your fogs, what made you decide those ones? Any good at all? I heard that IS300 fogs (or HID's?) fit into your foglight housings as if it were meant to go in from the factory. Are the McCulloch better than the IS ones?

yes when i mentioned the pins i mean needles. if you go on ebay, and look for si gauge cluster, you see that the needle is just red. since im using the red L.E.D the re from the needles shine/reflect the color vibrantly. the L.E.D doesnot shine through them. if you wnna do is task for your civic, you need to goto checkers, or advance auto parts, the have a bunch of red L.E.D. what i did was when i bought the red L.E.D i hard wire them in my cluster to when i turn my lights on, the L.E.D turns on with it. Make sure you know how to sodder too.

The front tracer is not the the same as the mercury tracer it is made by C-West, almost looks like the buddy club2 front end.
I love your car...I want that year or the 2005 coupe civics they rock...I like thos black rims alot what happened to them? if you still have em would ya sell them? I want some black Slipstreams

Hey, how ya doing? Umm not looking for any particular style of rim ... just want something different ... I like the ones with the polished lip and I like the gunmetal color. Don't want nothing that is Bling Bling ... that isn't my style. I am looking to put 18"s on it though.
hey man... did you happen to hear about the big Eibach meet that went down there in cali? I'm going to be heading there next year for the next meet if its down there, probably bring the 4door and people should be impressed by then.. anyways later
Thanks for checking out my ride and yes I do plan on getting the real JDM headlights. I really like your style the car. Your car is the perfect example of JDM hopefully mine will be there some day too. I was also wondering where did you get your fog lights from because those are sick and havent seen them around anywhere?
thanks for checkin out my ride...by the way, if you're talkin about head lights like yours, i'd go a lot darker than that, i wanna have look clean, cause my car is white, and i wanted a black hb, but i had a better chance of gettin this one
I love your rims dude and some nice suspension mods you've got
I have updated pis, take a look.
Nice ride Bro!Its cool to see someone using their Honda for what they were meant,.....TURNS!Where do you race,...and what sanctioned body?Keep it up!Maybe I'll see you on the track.
Yup that's all I used to get from people (high beeming) while drivin down two way roads too. And since I had gotten pulled over twice by cops, I had to do somethin. This new kit I got is real nice. They aren't BLINDING bright while coming head on to someone like the other ones. Talk to you later.

Yeah actually they had a bad connection. When we put tape on it so it would stay plugged in tight they never flicked on and off anymore. But I got a different set anyways. I got an xetronic set of 8000K. I like them a whole lot better since with the ctr headlights these don't blind you as bad. We jus put the other set in one of my bf's cars. I'll put new pics of them up later.

How are those Teins working out for you? I'm thinking about getting some and was wondering how they ride.
Damn this is a clean ass car. I love everything you done with it. That jackson super charge kit is pretty expensive. Maybe you can get more bang for your bucks with a turbo. I like the jdm fogs,lip and rims. Good luck with everything in the future.
Great Car Keep Up the great work. I have got an SI spoiler from canada on mine now. Check it out tell me wha u think.
I finally made it out to an autoX school last weekend. It was great to learn the ropes before I start competing. It was with the BMWCCA of DC, and my first competitive autoX will be this Sunday in Richmond with NASA. All I'm looking for this season is to find out if I'm dedicated and make sure that my times improve. I will not be spending ANY money on my car (keeping it H-Stock/Showroom stock) because it is daily driven ~150 miles per day and I'm still saving for my E36 M3. I'll keep you posted.
whoa, u got some awesome suspension mods. I would love to get a similar suspension setup on my car too. Excellent car, keep up the good work man.
where did u get ur foglights from...? i want to get jdm 1s
hot car..its lookin real mean..and pretty
Holy blue loom batman!! Nah just kidding. Clean ride y0. Awesome D-series automatic racer. My Tranny needs to be serviced after Auto-X and 63,000 miles, she's leaking. Hope yours holds up. Awesome suspension mods. Please point me in the direction for appropriate subframe welding. Looking good in the future mods department too. Heard good things about Porterfield shoes. Peace.

hey man check out my new pictures.
Hey nice ride i really like your rims.
I have a question about turbo. Does the intake system for the turbo gives only the "woosh" sound and the BOV gives the "psst" when u release the throttle?
Heres the Video link:
http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=715 (click on video clip under the exhaust picture)
I think the evo's only giving the intake sound "woosh"
and the wrx is giving the BOV sound. Is that right?

hey, thanks for the advice. i've read about the ECU adjustment on other forums. just wanted some input from anyone who has one. i guess i won't get it then. anything you think i should do before the turbo? it's a D15b7 motor so i'm not sure what parts such as cams, pulleys, etc are available. but i don't wanna do a mini me since it will just increase compression before going turbo.
thanks for thu comment I really love your rims. I'm going to powder coat mine black here soon
how do you like the B&M FPR modifier? i'm planning on getting one after my exhaust is on.
Hey, I was wondering if your HIDs blink on and off while drivin? My driver side one is always turnin on and off. I could park the car and turn them off and five minutes later turn them back on and the driver side one doesn't wanna come on. We have checked everything so many times and its all connected good. But it's always done it since I got the hids but here lately it is gettin worse by doin it to me ALL the time, while I'm drivin they jus like to turn off and then come back on jus whenever it feels like it. It really sucks! I'm bout to get rid of them and get a different kit. Either a hella or phillips kit, it's goin to cost more but oh well. Just let me know how yours are doin for you, k? Later!
yea i see what your sayin now.. i'm just gonna get slotted ones and some AEM pads .. i mean i prolly dont need it really cuz i know i wont be goin a super speeds or anywhere close to it lol . not now anyways. but i might as well since i'm gonna have the money to spend on them.
i want my car to have power.. but then again i want it to look good to cuz i plan on doin some car shows .. ehh . i just dont wanna get pounded for bein a ricer :( lol

thanks for the advise man, i'm still kinda new to this stuff so advise is always good lol .. yea i was still kinda debating over dc sports bars or neuspeed but now that you said that i'll prolly go with neuspeed .. as far as the brakes go i'm prolly just gonna stick with the drilled/slotted ones even though what you said is prolly true and it makes since ... but i've also heard the drilled ones dont heat up as fast because of the holes and that they do better in wet conditions but who knows. .. i'm just hardheaded and i'll learn the hard way lol ..
i love your car man its freakin sweet. the black rims with that polished lip are just clean.
what is that blue thing connected to your coilover and where did you get it lol? i want a set .
would you happen to know where i can find the AEM rear disc brake conversion kit?

i really dont know why it had two.
Ahhh that sucks they took your pic without askin. I jus went to the site to see it. But yeah it's better than someone steelin it and puttin it on ebay. But anyways, yah my front lip isn't CF, I wouldn't want a CF one, thats jus me. I'm goin to get it painted sometimes when I get a chance. Doesn't really bother me bein black for now. Thats cool you got the passenger side seat to match the driver one, but I had actually never noticed that you didn't already have both, lol. Thats a good thing though right? Anyways good luck with whatever you have planned next!
I haven't really been able to notice, but I don't think it does on ours. The exhaust hangers for the muffler tip snapped off so now its been hanging by bungie cords, so while under hard acceleration, it does tend to vibrate the sh*t out of the car. Geez, The front lip on the car gives it about 4" of ground clearance, now with the H-brace hanging lower, it gives us about 3 1/2, on the underside of it, we have a bunch of yellow speedbump marks all over it, gotta love those speedbumps. Later.
haha yea thanks. when i bought my kit i didnt want the typical all viel side set, cause everyone has that...so i differed by changing the back of veliside set to a bomax rear bumper lol. i gotta take a pic of the back of my car for you guys.
btw how many horses are u packing?
and have u heard or seen those metal colored houses for under your hood? i wanted to ask..if u did know about them. do the allow more flow or rather only for cosmatics of the car.
thanks peace out.

Are you ready for the autoX season? I'm going to an autoX school in two weeks and let the season begin (BMWCCA). I might do a few SCCA events, but I like the smaller BMWCCA crowd.
Confirming that B is a POSER, ahahaha!!! He copied my entire audio section into his profile. Who's jealous of who now, I mean really! I'm gining him 24 hours to change it, or I'm making sure the HSO staff bans him from the site. If you agree, please leave comments on HIS profile. :D

His paint is still better than yours B. It was car of the month because it has mods that actually help the car and it was built intelligently.
Hey, finally dyno my car and it made 166.8 to the wheels. Anything new with your car?
most aluminum spoilers are this size..ive seen bigger...theres a blue 2 door on this site that has one alot bigger than mine, i thought mine looked really disproportional until i got the bodykit on, i like it alot
B is the dumbest guy i ever known. he doens't have a jdm eg4 cuz he doesn't even know what jdm means. i've never seen an engine like his on a jdm civic. u have a nice car phixion. dont listen to what b has to say

motor wise, nothing fits though my civic you said...a type r motor does not fit in AG4 civics? yeap sure you know everyting...learn about all the engines swaps and where they fit and then join the site.you think sohc engines are everything?as soon as my swap is finished you will see what i am talking about,and dont let your jealous talk...a type r engine fits the eg4 civics! see some in hondashowoff page man.you open your mouth and you tell this words because you are jealous.get a life!
So you like your hid's, I knew you would. Yup we put the coilovers on sunday. I like them better than the tanabes. The ride is definately smoother. I have them at the same height where the tanabes were but they can still go lower. I can't go any lower though cuz at my apt. it floods like half a foot when it rains (crappy drainage) and my car has already flooded three times. But anyways talk to ya later.
by what i read from other peeps profile. ur comments sounds like u know alot about engines.. so i i though u would know what i meant about Kilowatts... check it out --> http://www.nathankeogh.com/htm/cars/bhpVkw.htm
yeah that picture is the piston that sent us through hell with the LS and had to get a GSR. The car's been turboed since I put it on this site, but with my laziness I haven't had the chance to take the pictures of the turbo setup because I couldn't find the charger or memory card for my damn camcorder. Now that I got both of those, I just need to put videos up soon.
Matt,Yeah i got order but i havent installing yet since i have 4 days stright work everyday... Ugh .. but i m sure i will get it but i m wait for alarm for my car same time i will do installing u will see someday in pics Tsk tsk
Peace out

BE PATIENT MAN
Oh yeah, those are the same hid's I have except mine are 10,000K. I love them! I've gotten pulled over with them though cuz the cop thought I had my high beems on cuz they are so bright since I have ctr headlights which don't have reflectors in them. Since you have the real ctr headlights too yours are goin to be bright too. But maybe not as bad cuz mine have a major blue tint and my bf thinks that since they are really blue and bright that they jus got on the cops nerves. 4700K are just real white though right.
Thats cool you got your car fixed. Yeah couple months after I got my car which was January I think of last year we took it out to the track. (it was completly stock then)I wanted my bf to run it first then I was goin to. Well that didn't happen. Cuz as soon as he got out there and he launched at like 4 or 5 rpms, both axles broke and the tranny cracked in half. One of our friends with an si goes out there like every week and launches at like 6 rpms and nothin ever happens. So I dunno what happend, guess my car is bad luck. But after my stuff gets all installed next week, we are goin to dyno it so we'll see. Maybe one day if I'm feelin like it's a good day we'll bring it to the track again and hope nothing bad happens. This Sunday I'm puttin on my new coilovers still so I'll talk to ya then. Laterz.

Hey man, the CF dash kit I got it on ebay, it cost me about $30 but if you want a real nice one get the one that says is 3D CF, it cost around $110 but is worth it, the one I got is just like a vynil and I don't like it that much, I'm going to order the 3D one soon!!! later
hey man no prob. yeah that railroad tie really messed up the front end. i was driving on the freeway real late one night and it was laying in the middle of the road, and i just never saw it. i have since taken those pics down and put some new ones up.
The apexi coilovers will be in next week and I'll have them on by next Sunday. I'm pretty sure they'll slam it jus like the tanabes cuz they slammed my bf's teg. Anyways I'll sign your gbook next Sunday and tell ya how I like them. Later.

True that man. Yeah, Volks would have been WAY nice, I almost got a set of Mugen MF10 Mirror Faced around the time I got the Grids. I had set $1000 aside and only had another $600 to go, then I dipped into that $1k to buy a $750 Trek mountain bike (hydrolic disc brakes, Shimano LX drivetrain, front suspension, etc...) so yeah, whoops! :x But at least if the Rotas get ripped off, curbed or damaged, I won't feel so bad about it. Easier to replace $450 wheels than $2300 wheels. my Teins however, I'm very glad I waited and saved for that rather than getting some POS wannabe sleeved coilover springs. if i had known 2 and a half years ago what I know now, I'd have saved another $500 for Tein RS's... =\ I'm stoked though I can grace your "A" list. Tor E.'s Civic is an awesome car. Except for the wing, it used to still be an awesome car when I used to see it driving around town here in So. Cali. I still have the pics I took of it parked outside the shop I've gotten my more top dollar mods from, lol! ;p

The seat I didn't have too much choice in since I bought it used. I like the black on black for it because it MUCH lower visible profile than the gray gradient. Also the Ergo only came as a gradient, and all reclining Brides that I know of come with sectioned cushins. Finding a matching Brix will be a PITA. :(
I love Rotas. No wait, I love Volks, but since they were out of my budget (sort of) I settled for my current Grids. The C8's weren't what I was originally going to get, but since America's Tire Co. SOLD the Konig Heliums I had ordered and they were holding for me till my tires come in, I wasn't going to wait 4 months for another set, I got a break on them, wheels AND tires for $640. ;)
Yes, my car is indeed auto. But I don't mind. Hey, it's only as slow as you let it be, granted it doesn't have too much help at the moment... But I figure a TCI T/C later and a JRSC like I'm planning to get, and it'll be able to hold it's own to an extent. Even as is right now, it still have lots of fun driving it, never a dull moment... except when I was at the track (road racing) on the main straight and those damn EVOs and M3's were passing me like I was in reverse or something... =\ That's the only time I even felt like my car was actually slow, haha! 2500 foot or so elevation didn't help either.
So is A- the B+ curve? ;D

B. says he has a type r engine and no pictures to back it up...
As to saying that Phixion's car is so "standard," take a look at ours. EVERYTHINGS standard. Except, of course, the engine, rims, lowering, etc. As to Phixion being, as you would claim, "Mr. Modification," he has done nothing to try to say he has the most modded, and as well as the best car here. He's simply done as much as I have and complimented other peoples rides and gave his opinion. As for "standard" ugly color, your cars just as "standard" as his is. Try again. Hes into the Auto-X scene, which means suspension is everything (but that could simply be argued,) yet he hasn't said that he has everything. Try again. What makes you think that we really need to hear your jealousy? You started an attitude because you can't handle the fact that people give opinions.
just my rant, hope you don't mind Phixion.

yo i agree with you in the SIR sticker but the car came with it when i bought it and i never really got a chance to take it off... i guess i never really thought about it.... oh and body kits are actually alot easier to get painted on the car so u can match the paint better so that should answer that question...and you got alot of writting in ur profile there but why dont u cut all the talk and just list mods done to ur car... oh and nice suspension... get a v-tec tho ..... thanks for the comment.. peace

Nice Ride man whats some of your track times, thanks for the comments, but i did'nt waiste my cash on the fenders, I put those into the stock fenders. Peace
The 4door has no progress ever since the motor was blown. the motor however is already machined and sleeved for bigger pistons, and now we're dealing with other personal problems going on with the motor and everything, so I have no idea when we will be getting it in, so for right now we got the 4door sitting with an empty engine bay :(.
No I didn't roll the fenders. My car cambers like really badly though so they stay up under the fenders. The only thing is that my bf took out that piece in the two front fenders cuz the tires were rubbing up there. Now the motor jus gets real dirty all the time. Anyways bout the mugen lip, we jus put it on first to make sure it fits properly before gettin it painted. It's still on the car right now too, lol, gotta find time to get it painted. Later.
Hows the 23rd track day looking? I heard you guys are getting that deep freeze thing and snow but I could be wrong
I will be the new owner of an 98-99 E36 M3 by this time next year as long as I play my cards right. I'm looking for a "beater" EG Civic so I can sell my current E36 and save for the M3. We'll see what happens. Keep up the good work!

I GOT PIX OF THE CAR LOOK IT UP ON MY PROFILE
sunset le mans 2003 350z..... is what i bought, man i dont miss my si at all!
Yeah i drove the Nissan 350 Z what a beast, has 2 more cylinders than the s2k, has more horse, and way more torqe, Wow I was shocked, to find out how similar the s2 and the 350 are they are almost identical in performance! Nissan 350 looks better as far as looks go, but the 2k is a convertable, so its definetly between those 2! Ill know in a few days!
Yeah I did that to my pics cuz about 6 months ago some guy stole all my pics and put them on ebay and said he was sellin the car. So luckily some guy emailed me and was askin me if my car was for sale. I was like no. So he sent me all the emails that they had typed to each other and everything. So I reported it to ebay and the auction was taken off. So yeah I would recommend you doin the same thing to your pics. I have my car on cardomain also but I haven't gotten around to doing those yet. I think I may go do them now. Anyways I'll talk to ya laterz!
hey sold the car! Buying an S2k
Where did you get the wires for your spark plugs?
Looking good as usual!!! I haven't checked out your car since summer. I wish we had the weather here on the right coast to go to the track in January.
Yeah Slivias are sick thats for sure, this 1/4 mi crap is a lil boring and aswell as FWD cars, i want a challenge, i wanna build the s2k to be a drift/ track car..
Yeah keep it up, I only raced 1/4 just for fun, I wanted to see if intake exh and header does any thing, it did just a lil bit. By those engine mods i probobly gained 10-12 I think. I tried a drifing on 14" rims pretty good but after the drift all the power is gone because obviously its a fwd car. thats what i might do with a s2k, drifting sounds like fun, have u seen Initial D the cartoon? or the game? yeah its animated but has some killer drift scenes!
you seem to know a ton about suspension. i have a question for you about my accord..well i got it lowered..and i got ingalls camber kit..and i got a place to align it and adjust it for me..but still i get tire wear..is there like special balljoints or some sort that i'm suppose to install?
Hey man.. thanx for the comment..!! :o) Did you know the last owner of the car...!? I saw Daniels new Project a couple of months ago.. A Wide Body Acura NSX.. DAMN.. that car was sweeeet!!!

pretty nice ride But if you would do me the favior of retracting your statement on my page I would respect that...keep up the good work on the car..
The 240sx really dont need much work to run.. just a new distributor and battery. I had the Gunmetal with Polished Lip ADR Concept PRo 17" inch on my Si before. But i gave those rims to my brother to put on his civic hatchback. Those rims weighted only 14LBS.. pretty light weight for 17 inch rims dont you think. Well for the type of color of the 16 Rota's C8's that im gunna get is either Bronze or Sports Bronze..I might end up getting both..cause you know. you dont see a car at 4 angles.
Hey just checking out your car again...Im planning on getting the circuit 8's in Sports bronze for my si...for someone is buying my rims for $500..I traded my stock si rims for the 17's...I thought it was a pretty good trade. But the yeah..im getting the Rota Circuit 8's in 16 inch..Because the 15 inch dont come with universal Lug pattern 4x100 and 4x114.3...because i plan on switching rims back and forth with the accord and 240sx...And OH good news..i got a 240sx now...i got it for christmas from my brother..it doesnt run but its a going to be a good project car!
i know this sounds weird but they are real volks i did sum research they are the volk te37 gravel edition and the ones i have are repainted but look it up too go to google and search for volk te37 gravel and they come up
i think they are not rotas the a 5zigen cause ur are rotas right and u said they got 4 lugs only then mine are 5 zigen but if u can find out the name of them so i can post correctly but thanks man and which orange county in NY or FLA??? hit me back peace out
ohh and i also want to do wat u got dun to ur rims black wit the crome/silver lips im currently sandin them down
ohh man its cool ur not knockin i jus asked for a lil help but u helped me and not talkin trash like TypeRfamilycar does but thanks man and keep it up wit the sickness
well i think they might be five zigen but i havent seen them yet in mags or n e thing but do ur have multi pattern holes??? but thanks im prolly gonna change it
nice car man d-series pride but can u take a pic of ur rims or look at my coupe and tell me if there the same rims but come check out the d17a2 in my 94 coupe latta man and clean civic

thanx for the visit man! wanna give me some of your suspention?? hahah..... some day soon...
That's cool. The drop still amazes me. In the back I'm almost near the bottom with mine, but in the front since the stiffer springs came 50mm shorter, I have the perches about halfway down. I want to dump mine some more, but I gotta roll my fenders first for sure!

doesn't rub as much as u think...combination of stiff susp. (less compression), wheel well worn in for more room (from previous soft/crappy suspension), and narrow rims and tires (stockies)...hahaha...anyways the way my car is and how it done up is daily driver in mind...so any serious issues won't cut it...

hey thanks for the comments...ur ride is pretty sweet too...do u plan on getting a front sway bar? how is it like with no front sway bar and a thick ass rear one?
Ya your right there is only one way to find out whos faster. Any ways lets just get over that. How did u get into that racing cuz that seems like fun? I like that fact u kept the D16. Well anyways hit me up. later
Matt, you should taken a picture of the Silverbolt Look'a'like! haha!
I like the new pictures! Hey, were you really leading in that picture, or did they lap you ;) jk jk.
I like the new pictures! Hey, were you really leading in that picture, or did they lap you ;) jk jk.
I'm confused! first who compared a gsr to a accord? 2000civicsi asked of a 4dr could even be fast with out a turbo and I answerd him. Yes they can be fast. I thought you said u researched b4 opening your mouth. So whos the ignorant one? not me. and i didn't mean anything bad to your friend 2000civicsi sorry if he took it that way.
My bad bro. me and you got off on the wrong start..Its just that i hate it when people gotta tell people what to do and what not to do. I just had to stick up for my car. Really, people can say anything about me and i wouldnt get mad. But when it comes to my car, thats something i have to stick up for. My car is my pride and joy. And i put alot of time into her. I just hate it when others go around bashing on peoples ride. Me i just rather not leave a comment when a car is totally ridiculous. I just leave comments for the cars thats deserve it. You do got alot of knowledge about cars and motors. Yeah that 240sx. I think i want to go for the SR20 because I dont want that much weight in the front. I more focused on trying to learn how to be a good drifter. I do alot of drifting with my accord also. Its not as good as a RWD vehicle, but i try my best to drift into turns. I can drift into turns, but i cant keep my car going. Just a dead stop after the drift. I got few suspension mods on the accord. It gots pretty good handling too. I can take them cloverleaf turns at about 65-70. Your suspension work is crazy though. Ive never even seen an under front strut like that on a civic. But yeah i want to try to pimp out my 240sx when i get it after i sell my SI.
dude im serious i would totally chill with you if u lived in portland, u got some good specks on cars, dude ur a whiz! I think the same way u do! Your a cool dude by reading your posts your dead on everything. Dude ur awsome tell me about auto X what is it? whats a good run? is it a track, like rally let me know????
Yeah 240sx Do come with weak motors.Thats why I'm either gonna go for the SR20DET Red tops or the RB25..ANd if you do think you could take my accord with your civic..GOOD FOR YOU! i like that pic of your car with that skyline for shure. And your car is a clean civic. I like the fact that you do auto xing. and your suspension work is astonishing. And if u dropped a LS or GSR motor in this..You'd be pretty damn fast. yeup. Good luck with future mods.. That supercharger sounds crazy.
I think u of all people know what your talking about thanx for having my back, I honestly think u could take that pink accord in a race, So what that ur an auto i had a dx stock that smoked 4 dr accords! Nice new pix! Im still looking for an s2k, its winter time and i dont know why i cant find a good deal on one, every one wants like 25 grand for thier 2001 s2k wow thats insane any way hit me up later>
Hey dude! I like the NSX but why is that thing so over priced, I like the power, and the look but dude its a V6 dohc vtec motor thats only a little faster than the F20 s2k..... Dude i love 4 bangers, I love them with a passion especialy the S2 4 cylinder block. I really want a 2003 WRX or a S2000. I either want a factory built turbo car, That is actually built for a turbo or a quick 4 cylinder over 200 hp and that my friend is why I want the s2000.
damn alot of jdm parts hehe i like it too but too many people get 'em... its real clean, keep it up! c ya around
oh i thought auto is a disadvantage in auto cross but i guess not , good stuff
all that work why dont u convert it to stick
another autox'r yay! nice set up, what class have they put you into. i am in street tire novice currently. nice d-series!
all them goodies in the car!...but...its an auto?..ouch! still give you mad props tho stickin w/d series mod ups...u plan on swappin the tranny?..peace
Hey Matt.. I'm lovin the new pictures! I really like the bottom picture... second one to the left.
hey can you fill me in on skylines too because i got good idea but not completely sure
its sucks that honda lacks tourqe, I like the power but soon as you get a fat kid in your car its slow as hell. maybe i need skinnier freinds or a S2000. but no dude i had a dx a 96 auto I went from the slowest civic to the fastest. I love my Si.
So whats the hp out put from you car?, and what about tourqe? sounds like u like ur car and tuned it just right to hit the street. I think it looks good, HOw come Skylines are not legal in th USA????????????????
Hey, thanks for your comments on my headlights, it seems like everybody seems to like them, so that's good. So you say strut tower braces won't make any difference? What's your opinion on the Neuspeed front brace? It's all welded together, there's no screw holding the ends on to the bar like on most of the ones you see. That's what everybody's been telling me to get anyway...so I dunno...can you recommend any good brands, as far as sway bars go?
And by the way, your car is looking great, I wish I had half as money mods as you do! Keep up the good work!

Like your car, looks nice and it's clean. Thanks for the post, yes my aero kit is from honda and I agree it makes it look great. Haven't been able to find tail lights for the 2dr 04 civic, so they are staying stock for now.
Thanks for the post. Keep up the good work
hey how do u erase all the bad posts, can u? let me know
the lights are after market, i like the jdm look and want the original, but I have to pre pay to get them shipped plus it wouldnt have any warranty, so i bought some knock offs they look pretty good, especialy at nigh time. I get allot of people asking where i got them, i kept the original ill never sell those.....
No im still seraching for a good deal ill find one I want the first year of production or maybe a 01 or 02, my buddie has a silverstone s2 and its sick as hell, i ll get a yellow one or red,..........later man!

hey man, you seem to know alot about strutbars, what have you heard of the skunk2?
Nice seat and thanks for the comments again. I have heard quite a few people do the same thing that you have done. I was even thinking about doing it to mine for the time being just to see if I would notice anything.
Another update: Recently removed my short ram intake setup (see engine mods and pic of engine) and replaced it with my stock OE airbox, with a K&N drop-in filter inside, and the POS snorkle pipe removed, so that the box just sucks the air in through the hole on the side. This has proven to yield better results than the short ram setup did. Mid range and high end power have increased quite a noticeable amount, but unfortunately no low end was gained, that seems to be the weak point of most Honda motors, the low end. This also keeps my motor/car slightly more legal, and I won't have to change anything come smog inspection time next year for the first time of owning my car since the end of '99. The advantage of the Y7 D-series motor, it's unique verticle throttle body that allows direct airflow into the intake manifold via the airbox without the need for any pipe or hose connection in between. I've been toying with the idea of trying out a cowl-induction setup for the intake. Much more research into that before I even buy a hood to chop up to attempt that. ^_^

too bad the skyline isn't yours too.
keep up the good work. i like the seat choice. are you going to match it with a passenger one?

yeah cali has some sick rides, but oregon is big on trucks and V8s i hate it, its either domestic or import, I will also pick the imports, Civics to me are fun, everyone has one, and alot of people give it a bad name, I like the clean jdm look, its a jap car leave it jap, that guy who did a mustang conversion on civic cracks me up, have u seen it, its on here, wow how much crack does he smoke?
yeah dragging is fun, not saying im really quick or win all the time but its amazing to me how a stock 1.6, 160 hp engine with a few minor bolt ons can smoke 5.0 ford mustangs, i thought 5.0 were quick, any way back to the Si's, really not that rare in calli? huh, thats weird every teenager in oregon wants one or a type r, RWD is the way to go i wanna drift, i wanna rally, i want a AWD,evo8 really bad, best deal i found was for $23,000 but miles were a little high, Have u ever drove one? the steering response is so quick and the whole car feels like its glued to the ground, drives smoother than an Sti, but not as quick.
I'm sorry, but I'm really not feeling your car... however, that Neuspeed bar is awsome!!! ;) I kinda miss the little guy.
Your suspension is just insanely sweet! I havent seen a single EK that comes close... or at least none that I remember. And damn, you're all the way at the bottom! Well, I'm almost done :)

dude u spent all your time tuning it and spending 1500$ when a stock ls, gs integra comes with a 140 horse stock, sohc its not worth it, i had one see my profile, i sold my my old civic bought an si, i really was impressed that a motor thats 1.6 liter pushes 160Horse Redlines @8000 WOW big jump from a DX to an Si, so i like your car i dont like the sohc motors, But agian your car looks sick as hell, and might be quick as hell i dont know, but anyway were all honda fans so much love...
Thanks for your comment on my car! Your car looks good... very clean, no rice! Love it! Also like the chrome lip on your wheels... pulls all the silver together nicely!
its hard to tune sohc motors! they come with like 106horse

your car looks really good! i'm curious though.. did teh "h-brace" actually do anything, or was it an ebay hoax? what do you think of those LCA's? i've heard mixed things about them as well..
Which rims are you currently sporting? Did you paint everything blue under your hood? Holla back!
when you get the red and clear taillights like you have, do you have to buy new blinker bulbs, since the housing is now white?
I love this thing. I'm trying to get into autocrossing, and doing lots of tasty work on suspension this winter, but keeping the D series for a while. Good stuff. :)
my car said it wants to eat your car for breakfast, naw im joking dude nice sohc civic looks clean lower it more and get si front and rear lips it will be sick..see my ride later man..

Nice car, great mods. I added more pics. Check them out.
I like your choice in wheels. Very clean! Thanks for the comments and good luck with the future mods.
Thanks! I try to post up the latest pics I have of me auto-X'ihng with it, on here both because they are cool to see, and also as proof that this car ain't just a show piece or another ricer around town for that matter. I love both sets of wheels too, which is why I opted to keep the C8's rather than sell them. After driving a couple weeks now on the Azenis Sports tires, I think I'm going to get a set for my C8's once the ES100's on them right now, are done with. Always nice to have a spare set of wheels if need be.
Very nice... I like both sets of wheels you have. I'd love to see you autoX it. My autoXing debut has been delayed again. My car is in STS now, but I'm hopefully detuning my car to run H Stock against all those stinkin Mini Coopers in Aug. in either a PA or the DC region.
I like them a lot! Had them about 2 years now. They became so "everyday" to me, that I went and upgraded the springs to ones that are 2kg stiffer! But handsdown, the best mod I've done thus far I feel. They really make a big differance when I auto-X.

how do you like the tein setup? i was thinking about getting a tein coilover/shock combo for my car

Ahh yes... it's in my exterior stuff, but I'm using PIAA Plasma Ion (yellow) wedge bulbs for the city lights, LEDs wouldn't reflect back the same way or as well. It's mounted into the city light hole that comes built into the JDM CTR housings, using sockets from a 6th gen Prelude city light, then just wired up to the parking lights.
for the city lights. or is it a normal bulb?
btw, i got my wheels on. check it out.
btw, i got my wheels on. check it out.
very cool. where does the led mount?
H-brace helped out A LOT. Reduced some of the oversteer the rear of the car would get, and made steering a little tighter and able to take turns quicker and with less understeer. I got it from www.robearracing.com for $65!!! Same with the megan arms, $110 for the pair of those. I'll post up a pic of the city lights when I get home from work.
how much did the h brace help out and where did you get it?
thanks for adding the lca picture. i'd like to see one of the city lights, too.
