thought ahead and got a header guard. the clearance is good tho its dead even with the oilpan.

 

Do any of you guys run HIDS? I am considering it... also considering doing a retro fit.. heard they are better when you retro fit oem hids from another car... anyone know if thats true?

 

smart. linky to header gaurd?

i have hids. i believe its the 6k(blue/white). stock headlights. they are okay wish they were brighte. not sure if its the cheap hid or maybe like u said i have to retro fit them

 

Yeah see I don't know jack about HIDs because on my 99 DC4 I just through the raybrig fogs on and i was good... on this I thought I would try the HIDs route bc I'm not really wanting to put fogs on this car.

 

i see^^^ i would try to post pic but for some reason it wont let me open the file... ill try google email

 

so you have retrofitted ur headlights?

 

nope stock headlights.

 

Ah I see... hmm... guess its time to do more searching lol, I have a junk 94-97 headlight to experiment on so I could play on that to see how I need to do my actual good headlights lol

 

thats always a plus ^^^
just for funz... should take a pic looking out

 

damn my cell pic sucks a$$...

 

so i found a steal on some TWM ITB's for 350, was gonna settle with some obx for 550 til dude PM'd me about these!! I love gettin deals!!

 

Hey eg2jr, do you think its worth doing a retro fit or for the money is just getting aftermarket hids for a teg the way to go? I live in MO so I haven't seen any retros done in person lol

 

you lucky SOB ... how are you going to keep dirt and dust from entering your itb?

i say go for it. i never retro fitted my headlight but iv seen a few people with great outcomes. getting after market hids IMO is easyer(plug and play) and cheaper.

just bought a sticker for $5 "no fat chicks car will scrape" should go great with my coilovers

 

Yeah I have kinda talked my self out of doing a retro fit.. just trying to decide if I want to go for the plug and play or just get some silverstar ultra's or something like that

 

well hids are pretty cheap now.. i got mines for $65

also does anybody know a good website where i can order my exhaust bolts... i need the ones that connect the header and cat together (itr)

 

i know 2 guys that have brand new obx for 550, thats still 50 dollars cheaper then they sell for on ebay. As for filters im gonna see if i can find foam type filters that slip over.

 

Sealed box and a good cold air feed would be the way to go

 

motors goin in my del sol that i race on the dirt oval track, cutting out a hole in the hood and have it setup like a ram air like a wrx. Pretty much getting the motor prepped and tuned so its already to go after i do my k swap.

 

pics of the del sol man! NOW! iv been wanting to get another samba green del sol shell but they are hard to find clean title or in a specific color

 

i didnt start a thread for the build yet since i havent really dont anything to the car cept to try part everything out to pay to tune the motor thats going in. Heres a sneak peak of the shell, traded my k20a3 long block from this years car for the shell.



previous owner started to shave the engine bay and bumper and wire tuck. Never finished so i gotta put the engine bay back together.

 

Heres the link to this years build 2002 Civic Si
