Black Boosted Coupe with some real Rota RNR's

Thx to Kevin for hooking me up with a well taken care of set of rock n' rolls.

yup, saved an all stock SOHC with a greddy kit.
175 whp and 173 tq 8psi
117XXX miles, compression tested at around 170 psi. original clutch holding up just fine.
got 38 mpg on the way from AZ to Long Beach!

6000K HID rice
before:

after:
cutoff is very similar to stock. Remember, these are stock civic halogen reflectors!

Re: (RARE_EG2)

Nice!!! I used to have a set of black/red ones on my SI and since I sold them I miss them...

I always liked silver though so maybe another set might be in the future...
