they arnt slow that slow though, the auto trans and the b18b1, is still faster than any d series, trust me. My old db6 would tear my civic ex a new one. It also kept up and passed plenty of 2.0 eclipse 3rd gens.

although yes when compared to a vtec b series its lacking a little, i stepped up to a DB8 gsr and there is def a noticeable difference. lol its a gorgeous car, just sucks its auto, although sometimes its nice to have.

good luck bro.

whats up with the first video? we get it. you can drive in circles in an empty parking lot. it looks as if you are learning to drive. and the revving of a stock car? cmon dude...and locking the car as soon as you get out of it only to walk 8 feet from it? you have a security system, big whoop.

plus, those HID's are glare-y as fawk. your projectors werent designed for HID bulbs..


oh, and your "teggy" isn't "dump't"

I just bought the car a month ago and if you go to the video on youtube, the description says that I was testing out the video quality for far away objects. and the revving was too test the sound pick-up on my new camera. my canon 1D markIII couldn't take video so I bought a compact canon with 720p. and locking the car as soon as I get out is just a habit from any car i've had, wether it had an alarm or not. but it's just the camera angle for the HID's though, I know they're not made for HID's but it's really not as bad as it looks. and yes i'm aware it's not dumped...yet, like I said I just bought it a month ago.

Nice car, man. I might prefer to remove the aftermarket sides for painted OE ones, but that's me. Good luck!

oil pan was dropped yesterday and oil pump removed and cleaned and all new seals and gaskets are on but when I was torquing down the bolts that hold the camseal in, I broke two because I had the wrong torque setting on the wrench and so I picked up two new bolts from the honda dealership today and when I was in there I noticed the timing belt covers were all shot and warped somehow and they were rubbing on belts (probably a bad installation) so I ordered those and hopefully the'll be in the mail today, have my fingers crossed.
