Hello all hows it goin?
I,m new here and just wanted to say hello. I've only had my civic for a week and am loving it! ill post some pics for you all asap. and yeah lol i love the forums and just wanted to say thanx for all the awesome info on here its really interesting for a newbi like me.
Heres my car the pics are from the cars classified ad lol i dont have a camera.

 

Nice!

 

thats a sweet looking civic. love the lip kit that is on it

 

The back middle wing is a lil to much for me would look perfect without it but definitely a beautiful car. What kind of motor?

 

your mirrors, sell me them.

 

A GLi.. Wow..

Why does Europe and Australia get all the cool cars while we're here stuck BS cars with crazy emission standards that are running on fuel that Jeremy Clarkson calls "Limp wristed Fairy fluid" for fuel...?

*Depressed*

 

'cause if we continued running cars that didn't have to run "limp-wristed fairy fluid", we'd never see our sky again. I think we do OK despite emissions control. Now, the cars of the 70s w/emissions controls...that's a another story.

To the OP, that is a sweet looking ride. Wishing we drove on the same side of the road as you...if we did, I'd be in Japan right now at the auctions importing containers.

Welcome!

Its just the stock motor i dont know what its name it is hey i am a car noob lol thats why im here.
heres a pic tho

 

Just making sure you know...

The 100 octane fuel rating in Japan and other overseas countries is derived from a different formula than the one we use in the USA, and really the 100 octane in Japan and many other countries is the equivalent of 95 octane using our formula. We don't have 95 octane pump gas (that I know of), but we have 93, and that 2 points of octane rating isn't that much. That being said, I don't know how you could say that their fuel is as much better than ours as you imply.


So do you guys like have no dirt over there in Australia?

 

Nice looking lip. Welcome to H-T.

 

how much did you pay converted into U.S dollars? is it the same?

 

7990 Australian dollars = 6 014.872 U.S. dollars

Remember the economies are different in general as well, this may not be a "rip off" over there.

 

have 95 pump here

 

well there you go, that's the equivalent of 100 octane in Japan.

 

first gli i have ever seen. looks grand. good buy!

 

nice ride!! welcome to H-T

 

The GLI came with a d16y4... Very nice buy

 

I got it for $6990 Australian Dollars = 5 275.353 U.S. Dollars

and thanx for all the reply's

 

lol unfortunately yes its just had a good clean.

 

I still can't believe how clean this thing is. You got a great deal, this thing is CLEAN.

 

yeah i know it looks almost new who ever had it before me really looked after it.

 

Hi tim,
you might wanna try the australian honda forum,
ozhonda.com

honda tech however is great because it seems the americans have done anything/everything but the australian forum, as ur in newcastle is proably better for you in terms of learning and parts and stuff,
america doesnt have GL , GLI, etc, they have DX and i forget what else.

 

hey thanks for the link.
i tried to join but it say my Email addy is banned and i don't know why coz i've never been on there before.
