prolly in the 300hp range.
runs very good, and has been together on this setup for about 10months.

hope you like it.

 

i have the same flies on my white ej1 lol, i know what you mean

its looking nice, wanna see some washed pictures lol

some ek skirts would go great with the lips

 

really?
ive never actually took the time to look at ek skirts..
do they bolt on off of an ek coupe?
thanks man lol i need to wash her again.

 

you have any pics of your center console??

 

yeah, ill take on for ya.

 

here you go man, it took some cutting to fit it, and even more to fit my cd player in it. hope this helps..i like my console alot haha.

 

fresh i like it.. love the rims

 

very cool build. specs on your set-up

 

yeah EK skirts do bolt right on, there was a thread on here about putting them on egs (you had to the cut a bit off the back i believe)

 

specs added!

 

very nice setup. I like your gauge setup especially. I wish I had a place like that to put my gauges. The Gauge pod makes people suspicious.

 

yeah thats one of the reasons i didnt get a pillar,
more hidden.
and also sowhen my cars parked its less likely to get broken into i would think.

 

What's the science behind removing the rear carpet without pounding out the sound deadening material? How much of an increase in power did you get from removing 1 pound of cloth?

 

ya lol. I have tints (not dark) and i put up a sun visor when I go somewhere. Its just when im driving around and especially when im driving through the meet.
But I dont think people at the meet believe that im stock anyway. I've heard what some people think is in there and I just have to laugh. Some people think its a "Built B16" Other people think its a "Cammed LS" and some other kid said its a "B20 with an exhaust" because the CRV is a truck and my car is deep like a truck.

 

are you talking about the sound deadening material in the back above the gas tank?
i removed it because i cant put the back seat back in my car (cage)
and i knew that it was gonna be seen..
civic coupes dont have any rear carpet,
the seat covers that back half.
i have the full carpet in my car.
besides the trunk carpet, no need for it.

 

thats funny man lol,
yeah full exhaust is my next step.
i weld, so im gonna fab and make my own exhaust,
im picky so i havnt even started on it really...
prolly gonna be a long process haha

 

Love the wheels and there great power figures

 

great build. cant wait to get my hp numbers around there :p

 

thanks man, i serched a good while for these wheels:]
actually im thinking about getting some 15x8 or 16x8 +0 offset 002 sportmax wheels
may be somewhat more flush
these i do like alot.

 

you know... i cant decide if i like rims like that. I mean, no offense AT ALL but they just seem too busy for me. i must not be a full JDMer. idk...

 

kew kew got any new plans for it?? kew ej1 though

 

Volk TE37. They are the best rims ever. Atleast I think they are. If I had rims they would be TE37's.

Edit: Or some Honda fit Rims. Because like nobody has those yet.

 

nice:D

 

i agree, theyve gronwn on me on this car tho.
i had them on a 4dr ef before they were on my coupe,
and they looked good.
but i like them alot..nice lipage:D
haha

 

well, i have a gt35r, 70mm tb, big fuel rail, aeromotive fpr and guage.
all ready to be put on,
but i need to talk to my tuner about when he can retune.
then a full exhaust:]
maybe traction bars and stuff later
and new coilovers.
