Default new car on a new forum

hey everyone i am thomas, i was told to come here to gain tons of honda knowledge from you guys lol. chances are you will being seeing quite a few question pop up from me. anyways i will give you a low down on the ride its a 2000 civic ex coupe with 40000 on the body and 15000 on the motor, it has the jdm type r b18c with, car has got the hard stuff done but still needs to be finished up right...ex the 2.25 exhaust and ebay header got to go, get a true dyno tune right now it just has some mail order tune. the car was lowered with ebay coilovers but being the guy had no clue on how to lower the car right it now has 3 blown struts so a set are on the way really soon. the car runs great but it just need to fine tuned to get it where i want it to be which is a good daily driver that also makes a good reliable play toy on the weekends. i should have some pics up later this evening when i get to my home computer

Thanks everyone i got some plans for the car i need to redo the suspension and exhaust first but as far as the body goes i am pretty much goin stock maybe a mugen front lip and jdm fogs, and a carbon fiber hood but i will paint it back green to keep it stock looking bc right now i am having to much fun fooling people bc of the way it looks right now lol... but then again a crazy huge wing would attract more attention bahaha big JK on that one

Yeah i am really liking the lips for these cars so one will probably go on sometime, as far as the wheels they where on the car with new tires so i am rockin them bc they are better than stock. i might get different ones if i see something that i really just cant live without. i got alot of other things that are ahead of the wheels though, it rolls so i am happy haha. i have had a few people tell me to ditch the pin strip but i am all for it, it gives it more of a stock look i think, plus i think it looks good on top of the green
