I thought I would finally post one of these.

I have an 2002 Civic LX Coupe. 5spd. It has been a money pit since the start. I have replaced just about everything. I am on my second transmission and I think it's going to **** the bed again. Crazy whirling noise but goes away when i push the clutch in. First motor overheated so I swapped that out and got another motor. I have ARP Headstuds, new headgasket and WP and new clutch. I have 233K miles =D and still owe 3 grand on the car, UGH. Car has been repainted at Macco, It came out okay but its all rusting at windshield/ quarter panel window.

Car is being repainted and all body work done in about a week or two. I also have a Nitrous kit I may use for looks since i can't seem to sell it prob going to get a purge kit or something.

But yeah I drove this car about 33K miles boosted no problems yet. Yes I do beat the **** out of it and yeah still no problems YET. I drove it to Miami about 3 weeks ago for a big accord meet and really beat the crap out of it yet it's running great. Minus the transmission issue.

But yeah

These are some pictures from Miami when I went down there. Some parts are not on the car aka front and side lip kit but you get the idea =D

 

Vids of it boosted?

 

Engine shots! What size of piping do you have runing after the turbo? How do you like the sound of the si exhaust?

Edit: Wow, I thought I had posted here before...Guess not.

 

yeah the engine bay isn't pretty by any means. I will snap some pictures in the next coupe days or find some I already took.

the piping to me is very small so idk. I have videos i just have to upload them =D

I love the SI exhaust, Stock looking with a kick and sounds decent cant even hear it really.

 

Maple, where did you get that, WINK 5 Panel Rear View Mirror?

 

Amazon.

The mirror is effing baddass. Although I always hit my head when I bounce on my seat when I get into my car. (hate being tall haha)

 

Good looking car. You would never know it had that many miles.
