The other reason I don't have many performance mods is due to lack of for the d17a and $$$. Military pay is not that great while trying to suport a family. Anyhow. Thanks for the warm welcome from the rest of you.
Also I search how to upload pics but I don't have them saved on an intranet site. Please assits. THANKS!!!

Your car is slow and you took it from stock to super ugly...how are we supposed to respond when we are a forum full of people who drag or road-race our cars and appreciate the stock or cleanly modded chassis?

Welcome aboard. Ignore the haters. 90% of the people on this site don't race, but are more performance oriented. It's your car don't let them tell you what to do with it. To post pic's you'll need to know the web address, and click on this button when typing your post . Paste your address in between the image tags.

???

too easy? where have you seen that is too easy. its easier to boost a d17 in a 2002 civic than it is to fork out the doughto swap ina K20 swap. have you ever read up on the actual swap guide for a K20 into a 2002 civic? its far from easy and far from cheap as compared to getting a turbo kit fro your stock motor. **** its easier to swap a K20 motor into a 92-95 civic than it is into a 2002 civic lol

Let's see I only see a few things that maybe make his car ricey (in bold). And calm the F**k down people, you havent even see his car yet, I bet its pretty clean, and I bet about half the "rice" mods you wouldnt even notice in the pictures. So until then, lay off the "ricers".

Dude as a side note, if you want to post pics of your car do it in the Appearance/Cosmetic forum, otherwise your thread will be locked/deleted by mods.

Ya, at least he stuck with OEM wing and bumper stuff.

You'll find yourself quickly selling the altezza's if you stick around here though

As far as performance goes I'd slap a turbo on that motor, single cams aren't so great for NA. You'll find yourself spending a ton more money than just doing a swap and still getting the same power.

to post pics you need to find a website that will host pics. i use we-todd-did-racing.com, but lately they have had to cut down on the amount of photos you can upload.

Welcome.

All I can say is take your mods slow and cheap if you're trying to support a family.

I won't even comment on your current mods because my opinion on it doesn't matter.

When you figure out how to post pics, please do so in the Appearance/cosmetic forum, thanks.

Sure did, sweetheart. Did you? An AEM CAI and Tanabe exhaust just makes his car loud and obnoxious and makes him drive like his car can do better than a 16.9 in the quarter. I/E does not a fast car make.

Oh, you seem to have missed the strobe lights in the turn signals, hyper-white/blue bulbs, aluminum painted paditor cap, battery cover and brace, and fuse cover. If any of those does **** for performance or cleanliness, let me know. Until then, get off my nuts about flaming a ricer.
