I would focus more on looks instead of speed. Get the car looking good then when they release the K20 blot in kit. Have yourself some hybrid fun I really like the side skirts and rear spoiler and bumper by Tsunami look..

Trade it for an EG hatch Well maybe not, but definitely wait a swap in the K20 when the bolt in kits are available.

Well you probably spent a good $1000 on i/h/e. If your thinkin about the swap, don't let the old motor go to waste. Nitrous will be the most bang for your buck. Don't even know if they have a kit that will fit though.

I know someone who has 99-00 Si rims on his 7th gen coupe. It looks so freakin' clean, like it was meant to be there.

I've seen a few of these lately...they are looking better. Looks-wise, not performance-wise, though.

HASPORT needs to hurry up and come out with Motor mounts for B-series engines. I rather put a B-series than a K-series

yea, civicboy is right ,Id go with looks but Im not a big fan of BD kits
So I keep wifeys lowered with rims and a lil tunes Ohh...and I wont forget a AEM c/a/i .

BTW, yes they do make nitrous kit fot it , but just dont get the ZEX cause I got it and it didnt work due to the FPR location .NX has a kit fot it and if you look at the site , they have one being installed step by step on a 7th gen

Clearing the headlights is easy... took me about 30 min to do both and replace on the car.

There are rumors that XS Engineering and Drag are coming out with turbo kits early 2003 (Drag told me late January). No final words on how much power, but both are taking the worthless fuel system and making it a return system, and relocating the fuel pump out of the tank so that it is more easily adjustable. As for more information, XS and Drag will not say, so it's speculation. But Drag told me to expect at least 100 hp/115 tq out of their kit, with more possible by other modifications to the engine.

yeah, I'm jealouse. I was looking at a 7th gen yesterday with 215/45/17s that didn't rub, even lowered with GC's. I'd dig the 17s more if I could run a tire size like that.

Not to talk sh*t and I'm not trying to start anything but IMO they are gross, not to mention OBD3.....translation can't do sh*t with-out the check engine light coming on. I love civics up until 2000, the new accords look good, S2000 still is awsome as well as the NSX, but the new Civics are just plan nasty IMO, although the 4 doors do look better I still wouldn't want one.

OBD3? According to the honda service manuals, the stamp on the side of the ECU, we have OBD-2, same as the previous gen Civics.

Also, I have never had a check engine light, after installing a CAI, exhaust, headers, random tech cat, apex'i s-afc, ignition solution coils and spark plugs, fuel injectors, and a fuel rail.
