I've been here for over a year now and just realized that I have not posted any pictures of my car. Well, now that I have a digicam here are the most recent:













BTW, I will be getting rid of those rims VERY soon. I'm planning on getting 15" Rota Slips along with Potenza S03s to replace those heavy things.

Nice and clean....Could use a little bit of a drop and maybe a front lip..other than that nice clean car man

neveronlines2k

Car looks clean . It will look way better after you get your wheels. I would get a front lip on that bad boy too. Whats it run with that turbo?

intake

Nice turboed EX bro

Smoe things id liket o see

1- front lip
2-paint your skirts
3- si grill
4-if u can, rear lip *si style*

after that, your car would look hot on some SLips

Whats the 1/4 on your boosted ex?

maxim

Yeah, I was thinking of getting a Mugen lip to go along with my stock black side skirts. The reason I keep it so high is because I slant my intercooler in towards the bumper beam to allow for the bumper to fit perfectly. While doing this, it has created a drop in the compressor piping(clearly seen underneath). It was lowered a bit more before I did this to the intercooler, but decided it was too risky.

i know you've ran it down the 1/4..how did you do..and tell me all the details..what Psi...etc...I am broken between swap and turbo.....your inputs will help me decide......

lol, how did i know that someone was gonna yell PUT A LIP ON IT!!!! the car doesnt have to have a lip to look good or be a hatch without a duckbill spoiler, the car is clean

maxim

I have not formally run it with turbo, because it has not been tuned yet. But, I have run a friends MR2 turbo, which made consistent 14.8 ETs at Houston Raceway Park last month and I have beat him on average by half a car length. We did 5 runs one evening, each were with me at 9 pounds. Given this, I figure I would do well at the track with my car tuned.

why didnt u get a dohc with the money spent on the turbo. it's nice though.

maxim

Because, I wanted a D16 turbo, jackass!!! WTF kinda question is that to ask?

Sucka Free

a skid plate wouldnt reach that far up on the chasis right?
cuz if it did, then investing in one of those would solve your pipe-bashing-too-low dilemma.

A skid plate? The piping hangs a little low. Do you think I could find one that ould fit properly? Where would I find something like that to fit the piping I have? Remember, a regular EK won't work since the piping hangs down lower

OHHH i take what i said about dropping it back lol...i would still consider looking into getting a lip..it justs adds something to the front of the car...My friend had an O.E.M EK lip and it looked really nice..nice and clean not to big not to small ....im not sure if it was from a 96 or 98..anyways....Id say your about low - mid 14's?!?!?!?! good luck
BTW: duckbill spoilers looks horrible...thats just my opinion tho id stick with my c/f roof spoiler and front lip....

HXMan

Looks real nice man...keep up the good work.

I like it. Get a lip, I'd also recommend black housing in your headlights

maxim

Black housings? You must be kidding?

BTW, anybody know where I can get a CF lip for my model car, its a 2000 Civic EX.
I've seen a Mugen one, but don't know where else to look.

C1V1C

WTF, duckbill's are only for HB's?
He has a coupe

Nice car, definately needs a front lip though

VegasVTEC

SOHC turbo, love it!

Did you repaint the car silver, the engine bay looks white.

Dr. EKology

yea i noticed that too..might be the flash

fowler!

Silver civics have a lighter engine bay..weird stuff

btw, sick car. I agree with the lip. I think an Si lip would suffice

GokuSSJ4

looks great

racecarpete

yeah silver civic engine bays don't have the metallic in the paint, it is really weird. Anyways, nice car man, did you install the turbo yourself and is it hard and are you running an oil cooler too?

sushibug

nice car

turbocoupe

Dude your car sucks.
