Pretty sexy hatch, i think i may have seen it around AU atleast once, but if your ever in town tuesday you should check into one of the local meets

Looks good. Run that oil feed line around the motor, relocate the battery, aluminum radiator/over flow tank, slim fan, and clean the over spray off the windshield wiper fluid tank.
Seems like a lot, but it's really not at all. and it'll make your bay look fresherest.

haha, i just dont try. only if they are extremely under the speed limit
Hows the d15b7 holding with boost? I just dropped in a jdm d15 saterday in my 94 hatch
holds boost just fine. its stock other than arp head studs.
i love the jdm d15b. i made 123 to the ground with ebay bolts on. ran 16.2 1/4 all motor and 2 teeth off timing. 14.9 with 50 shot nitrous.
mmm <3 this civic. especially in the white snow picture
thanks man, i love it too.
LOL at the IC. very nice man

ehhh...
yo! you cant even burn rubber with the b8. it'll just bog down when you drop the clutch.
when we went camping in the mountains (blue ridge). no joke, i was 1st gearing most of the time. cant pull crap with passengers in the car.

In that case you should wait til the fall to start attending, bcuz during summer attendance is slim, but they're usually held tuesday nights @ 9pm, on the 3rd floor of the student center parking deck

Great progress for sure looks good all except for the head lights, they gotta go IMO.

i hate the looks of the oem head lights, foggy looking. and the ebay clear ones, the reflectors on them sucks.

06-22-2011, 04:32 PM
that IC is huge! and not a fan of the lights but to each their own. i really like the bay, i was going to ask what paint you used til i read everything an saw where you had already said. what did you do with the ac? wanna sell it to me?

i had to stretch the front bumper because of the pipping. while driving, the plastic and screw on the side that hold the bumper on. came out from the fender and the tire rubbed the mount hole on the bumper so now ill have to get another bumper. but yes, i will be getting one soon.

the intercooler dosnt slow you down your spool that much. i rather have it extra cooled then a split sec slower spool. its a t3/t4 turbo.
im keeping the a/c lol. hard to get a hand on a good 100% working set. pulse its going back in when i put in bigger swap.

I would go with a smaller IC if you're only running 8 psi, but that's just me.
