First pics- EK photoshoot.

[d-man478]

These are the first pics that I've posted of my car. My friend got a Canon d40 for Christmas. (I believe that's what he got.lol) Anyway, it was the first time he used it also. So let us both know what you think and what he needs to work on. None of these are edited either.

While we were shooting, a guy rode by and stopped to look at my car. He was visiting form Alabama, He took us back to his friends house to show us this. It is pretty badass s2k.

Hope you enjoy. Remember it was my first photoshoot. I will take constructive criticism and advice.

[PURP]

nothing about that was a photoshoot... it was just pics being taken... nothing about your car is an EK... but sick s2k

[cactusEG]

car would be nice if it wasnt 2tone...

[d-man478]

car would be nice if it wasnt 2tone...
bought it like that, i was gonna paint it all black, and i probably will one day, but for now its two tone.

[boostedb16]

nikon make's a d40 and i thing canon is a 40d.

[qwick]

I think I have seen you around Milledgeville a few times. Not a fan of the two tone but the car looks good overall.

[quickdodge®]

Remember it was my first photoshoot.

Just remember. What you did does NOT constitute a "photoshoot." Just because you have an expensive camera doesn't mean your pics will be from a "photoshoot."

As far as your car is concerned. Ugly car, but the work appears to be in good standing. It is clean looking. If the entire car were painted that sandy color, I think it would look 100x nicer.

Remember. My opinion.

Later, QD.

yea man i go to school over there.

exactly, or have good photos.i would have thought those to been taken with a P&S. the car would definatly look better one color but isnt bad. definatly alot of potential! i love the coupes.
:goodjob:

[qwick]

GMC. "the other school" lol

o haha Yea I did a 1 year stint there then got the hell out. lol

[Dwisforme05]

btw i think the all black car with those wheels and the CF hood would look killer!

[d-man478]

thanks, but like i said it was his first time taking pics, he doesnt have a clue what hes doing yet.

[quickdodge®]

thanks, but like i said it was his first time taking pics, he doesnt have a clue what hes doing yet.

There's no problem with that. He'll get it soon enough. But again, parking your car next to warehouse and snapping a few pics is just that. Nothing more, lolol. Later, QD.

[DB4LYFE ™]

this car looks familiar!

~DB4LYFE

[d-man478]

why?

[speedminded]

There's so much fail in this thread. It's so deep in here I can't even shovel myself back out, lol!

[shadowx3]

x2
car would be nice if it wasnt 2tone...

[LIKEG6]

I remember seeing it at the Zen grand opening show. I agree with QD about painting the whole thing the sandy color. Would look sick like that.

Good luck with whatever you do to it.

[speedminded]

It's not an EK, it's not an EK, it's not an EK.

1. Proves F&F was bullshit, civics can't fit under semi trailers.
2. Autotrader much?
3. Congratulations, a photo of a wall.
4.The RX8 is a distraction, what's the subject again? Wall or car?
5. Awesome, the wall again.
6. Autotrader wha...?
7. Both AF points and Manual Focus is covered in the user manual.
8. This is the one and only shot that has potential...other than the crap sticking out behind the roofline and the car being centered in the frame.

1-4. Fail. Invest in a tripod and never use a flash, especially on-board.

[C-loS109]

am i the only one that saw the headlights? wtf never seen that. unique i guess but not my cup of tea.

http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo300/d-man478/hondaphotoshoot14.jpg

[C-loS109]

and by the way, most call them ek's. no sir either they are ej6/7/8 or em1 if they are Si. there is no such thing as an ek coupe. ek is for hatch and only hatch.

[d-man478]

thanks, i never knew that.

[speedminded]

and by the way, most call them ek's. no sir either they are ej6/7/8 or em1 if they are Si. there is no such thing as an ek coupe. ek is for hatch and only hatch....and no hatch ever sold in the US.

[C-loS109]

...and no hatch ever sold in the US.


srry but ur wrong...some ek hatch (ek2 and ek3) were sold in the us. the non type r. but the ek9 were not.

[speedminded]

srry but ur wrong...some ek hatch (ek2 and ek3) were sold in the us. the non type r. but the ek9 were not.Some days I'm wrong but today was not one of them. Please try again.

[Red_EJ1]

those clear fogs are ftl and the 2 tone sucks but hey if it makes you happy

[C-loS109]

Some days I'm wrong but today was not one of them. Please try again.

Sixth Generation 1996-PresentThe sixth-and-final generation of the hatchback was something of a surprise. Honda again went to work creating a completely redesigned Civic. The engineers implemented increased safety features into its design. New crush zones were added along with additional steel door reinforcements. The change in body style and added safety also increased the weight of the vehicle. A sudden need for more control over vehicles brought about OBD II. OBD II was designed to meet newer, stricter EPA standards by electronically monitoring engine functions. Increased signifigantly over OBD, OBD II allows almost complete engine control and also monitors parts of the chassis, body, accessory devices, as well as the diagnostic control network of the vehicle. Somehow, the majority voted for this, and the result was a market that was afraid to touch an OBD II car. Nobody was sure what the result would be. Would simple changes such as an air filter make the ECU go into safety mode? If so, how would internal engine work affect it? Apparently, the new hatchback went one of two ways: It was either loved or hated. Honda was looking for a unique appearance for the Civic and that they definitely found. It still stands out and following suit with the other generations, parts-a-plenty have been developed for it.

Engine swaps, nitrous, turbo kits, along with full race suspensions started popping up all over. Body kits ranging from mild to wild are still being created for this model. No doubt, the sixth-generation Civic is more alive today than its predecessors.
Some of the fastest import racers rely on this chassis to get down the 1,320 in under 11 seconds. As well as being a good chassis to build a drag car (http://www.superstreetonline.com/thehistoryof/sstp_0007_honda_civic_hatchback_history/four_cylinder.html#) on, again this Civic hatchback is a very capable auto-crosser with a few minor suspension tweaks. This imay not be the most memorable of the Civic hatchbacks, but it is the last one for us in the States.

In any case, the sixth-and-final generation of the hatchback still lives on in enthusiasts hearts, and the demise of the Civic hatchback is one of sadness for Honda nuts. We can only hope that Honda will someday bring us another hatch, if only as a limited edition. Hey, Honda, read! Bring us the VTI hatchback or even a Civic Type R!

and there u go.

**edit**

on ur chart i dont see the civic 3d CX or DX, or ur going to tell me those dont exist?

[DeeAOne]

probably one of the few two tones i have seen that go well together.

[cg112]

[C-loS109]

:blah: You don't see the 3 door CX or DX on the first chart I posted and highlighted because they are EJ2's NOT EK'S!!! There has never been nor ever will be a USDM EK, lol!

It's actually ej6, not ej2 like i mistyped last time....i was in the airport at 2am with less than 3 minutes of battery left and trying to upload the following pic at the same time but the airports free wifi has large uploads blocked. With one minute left of battery i typed it out and sent haha.

[matthewAPM]

[bigdare23]

That civic is pretty hot. I'm feeling the two tone because it's different. Those two colors go well together.

[jon84]

[d-man478]

thanks guys, and I dont know anything about the s2k.

[BAHHHHHH!!!!]

looks good.

I like that s2000

[jayjaySTI]

Yo man, I guess I'm like the only one... But I like your car, its different and still clean*

Keep it up bro!

How is it different? The only thing I see different about it is the color bronze. The two-tone thing has been going on like that for these cars for several years now. Later, QD.

Its different compared to over half of the Civics on this site(paint wise)... I think it looks good, that's my :2cents:

I'm not knocking your opinion by any means, homey. And right now, you're right about the scheme. But last year (when this car was done), I couldn't go seval miles down the road before seeing the same style paint job, only with orange/black instead of his gold/black combo.

Again, nothing on your opinions, man. Later, QD.

[SRCRX]

What's up with headlights??, We need a close-up!!

No man, I understand. The orange and black was REALLY over done, now its purple engine bays and roof racks... Whats next? :( lol
