Re: My 1999 Honda Civic SiR EM1 Build Thread
As far as I know they are OEM, but cannot say for sure... they were on the car when i bought it and the owner wasn't too sure. They are 15's and the tire is a 195/60r/15. I was told they are very rare? but who knows for sure.

Re: My 1999 Honda Civic SiR EM1 Build Thread
Hey guys so I bought myself a Sirius satellite radio on the weekend, happy with the selection of stations but not too fond of the unit in the car (too big) Might return it and get the smaller cheap one and fit it into the DIN slot. Heres some pics of it if anyone wants an idea of how it looks, and a pic I took of a ricer on my way home from Ottawa haha
And this is why im a drive way warrior

That Mustang looks amazing! What year? What's under there?
Also, I'm glad to see that Cavalier will be stable in the corners. Downforce FTW!

Re: My 1999 Honda Civic SiR EM1 Build Thread
Hey guys so an update:
Got the yellow fogs installed last night
Still waiting on passwordJDM, took them over a week to ship the items ... and still havent received a confirmation email with a tracking number. I thought these guys were supposed to be good? Not impressed with them at all. Also anyone here run straight pipe civic? Right off the headers, single piece of stainless all the way back? Im curios about this set up, keeping my options open considering an apexi ws2 shipped to me will be ridiculous
anyways

They always lag when I order through them... I've moved on to exclusively using ICB or finding it somewhere else. I'll only go through PWJDM as a last resort.
On my old EM1 I ran a hytech big tube, to a custom 3" midpipe, back to a Greddy TI muffler. No cat, no test pipe. It was brutally loud. If you're planning to run a header just to a pipe with no muffler even, I'd think twice. You'll be attracting a LOT of attention.
Even a $40 VatoZone special would be better than nothing.

Alright so another update, picked myself up a ITR rear sway bar with energy suspension greasable bushings. Need to find time to install it, and STILL waiting on passwordJDM. Included a picture I took while pounding some pints over the weekend.

Re: My 1999 Honda Civic SiR EM1 Build Thread
So I FINALLY got my order from passwordJDM, all pumped to open the box up and sure as sh*t its not even right.... They sent me a 6 speed spoon ****, even after confirming he was sending a 5..... The shift boot looks good, and it feels like good quality leather and stitching.
