you got a realllllllllllllllly nice looking civic there(love the color scheme)...only thing i dont like is those rims, i think their kinda overrated. Anyways nice car and swap :)

i would put GSR blades or 2000 civic si rims on them

[conrad.maranan]

As far as weight and price are concerned, those wheels are pretty much the best bang for the buck. :up: I'd lose the tint, paint the hood, chin, and mirrors. Nice ride overall, though. Those mirrors rock. :rocker:

[zabomb4163]

what happened to your hub caps?

[ToxicBug]

Clutchmasters Stage 5 clutch

LOL are you making 450whp or something? That must be quite a leg workout.

[CanadianTSi]

Whats it run?

actually, the CM stage 5 is a really light clutch, it's just unsprung so you can't really ride it. i don't have hubcaps bc those are real rims and i don't really like gsr or si wheels. i like these rims because they're light, i'd really like to get the same rims in bronze though.

[an0nym0us]

Whats it run?
i have yet to run it at the track, but others have run mid to low 14's with less.

[ToxicBug]

With less? An EK with a b18c1 runs around mid-high 14, and you expect your b18b to run low 14's with some custom cams?

[an0nym0us]

cams/springs/retainers/hondata/ported head/manifolds and the list goes on. too bad i'm getting rid of the car soon, but i'll be taking it to the track before i do and i'll post up the slips. if i don't do better than a 14.7 then i'll eat my words.

[CanadianTSi]

I would hope a whole friggin motor swap would run mid to low 14's, I went mid 14's with an Air Filter...

that's why i'm thinking of hopping in a DSM for my new project. they're so cheap and easy to make fast. a part of me wants to tear my motor down and build an all-motor beast with my four door, and keeping the outside the way it is. it's a good thing i have a daily driver so i can keep fkn with whatever car i want to.

ever dynoed it? curious how much whp its putting out.

[fatfreepork]

by the looks of it, no more than 180-190

[ToxicBug]

by the looks of it, no more than 180-190
Are you kidding me? That thing has like 150whp max. No VTEC :down:

[BstOnTheBrain]

Im liking that Blue 2g Prelude in the back better..decent looking Civic though. I would like to see that other Gray civic in the pic. with a B18 and Turbo in it. I love how the new ones look at ya' :)

[fatfreepork]

Are you kidding me? That thing has like 150whp max. No VTEC :down:

whp, yeah 150whp is about right. 175bhp is a good guess too. b18b1 if im not mistaken was rated for 140bhp

[Magnj]

sounds fast...not a looker though

[calcal]

not a looker though

lol you gotto be kidding me....that cool looks sick

[Anarki]

lol you gotto be kidding me....that cool looks sick

Im sorry but I have to agree with Magnj, it doesn't look all that good :sofa:

I never have been a fan of 4/5 door cars, or cars with a different coloured bonnet :stick:

My 2p tho :p:

[craig588]

It looks like it got into a bad crash and you didn't care about replacing the parts correctly.

[SquireSCA]

COsmetically, it looks like someone wrecked their econobox and the insurance company would not cover it so it was repaired with mismatched parts from a salvage yard.

And that's a lot of upgrades to pay for and have almost nothing to show for it in regards to performance.

[Carlz0r]

Bleh, can't stand sedans :( I'm looking at a 96 civic coupe right now ($6k cdn from dealership). Will probably put $10k in upgrades into it. Overall it's a nice car you have though, just can't stand the look of 4 doors.

[craig588]

Don't spend more on a car than it originally cost. That's foolish.

Buy a 16,000$ car. Manufacturers get massive discounts compared to what you're paying for each individual part.

you beat me

[axion]

Nice car. The wheels sorta killl it and it looks like someone ran out of paint before they got to your bonnet ;p. But still a nice car none the less.

I'm talking about stuff for aftermarket sound, engine parts, exterior, interior. A lot of cosmetic and performance stuff.

[Romain]

Step 1: Sell that car

Step 2: Buy a WRX

Step 3: Add a TBE and BC

Step 3: Enjoy :)

[BSill]

anyone in an sti run the new m6 turbo? my friends brother just picked one up and the thing is pretty quick

[craig588]

Yeah, I figured. That's an extremely foolish thing to do. You'll get a better car for 16,000$ than for 6,000$ + 10,000$.

[Unoid]

let me guess, you run burning 16's in that badboy?

[ToxicBug]

Yeah, I figured. That's an extremely foolish thing to do. You'll get a better car for 16,000$ than for 6,000$ + 10,000$.
not necessarily a faster car though.

[Soulburner]

On that note, I did buy a $16k car and am dumping a lot more into it..but in the end i'll have a car that outperforms $80k cars with a lot less spent. It's all about starting with the right car to begin with.

[Carlz0r]

Yeah, I figured. That's an extremely foolish thing to do. You'll get a better car for 16,000$ than for 6,000$ + 10,000$.
Well, first off, it's $16000 canadian, secondly, I cant get anything that would equal or outperform it up here for the same price.

[rob[GL]]

Ugly.

I am not an import hater.
Aside from the fact that I am 6'8" and 260lbs... Or 205cm and 120KG for you yanks... I don't fit in imports, can't drive them...

I think a First-Gen Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 AWD Twin-Turbo is an amazing looking vehicle. Not to mention it's preformance is something I could dream about.

I just happen to think that this Honda Civic looks like something I should be towing to the wrecking yard.

Any specs on those cams or flow numbers on the heads?

I agree, I also would've done a 99 front and rear conversion on the bumpers, and not even put that stupid lip, also would've powered coated the wheels to match the paint...Also make sure you put decent hood pins in, sparco really is the standard. It's funny when people waste money on cosmetic stuff on old eg's, ek's, and dc's...Especially spoon mirrors and a carbon hood...just rofl. It's a 4door, but the actual chasis length is the exact same as the 2door, true story..Lots of money you coulda saved ripping stuff off of other wrecked ek's in the junk yard. Personally I would have gotten a full coilover setup with pillowball mounts, one with adjustable camber settings, new bushings, I would've further stiffened it with some chasis bars(I would've just made some if I wouldn't find any in wrecked ek's, maybe even weled a rollcage). Also since youre using headers off a gsr, which are :banana::banana::banana::banana:ty, you might as well have taken the gsr's suspension so as to get rear-disc braking then upgraded the pads and rotors..drums suck :nono:

[4everCS]

Looks like a fast little honda :woot:

[comrad]

Yeah, I figured. That's an extremely foolish thing to do. You'll get a better car for 16,000$ than for 6,000$ + 10,000$.


Well for some people they like to put their time and effort into their cars and turn a small little weak honda civic into something fast and awesome looking, and be able to say they did it all with their bare hands. My bro has a 96' Honda Civic, he just put a B18C5 into it (Type R, 195hp) and that thing is insane, just insane. We rip everyone up on the streets. Then there is his Honda CRX with a B16A2 (civic si) engine with many many mods and stripped interior, we havent took the civic on the track but we the CRX on the track and guess how much we ran.......................... 12.9 seconds. When we were running the drag we were against a Camaro SS... We smoked it and the guy came out out of his car shocked.

Oh by the way that is a nice looking Civic and I love the rims :p:

[Kappy]

good looking color, not alot of crap painted on it =9

[Fatal]

looks pretty nice, and go with what craig said
