yess and slamm it !!!!

[2.0civic]

THEN GET A REAL MOTOR....OR BOOST....


OR BOTH MAYBE?

[dELfONiK]

Lambo doors altezza lights...

[TheGodfather]

Slammed and boost. 2 things that would greatly improve it.

[caseyT]

thanks for the constructive feedback...I only bought it for 2300 so I couldnt pass up a deal like that. but I will keep the thought of what to do in mind

[2.0civic]

thats not bad then..whats wrong with it?

[caseyT]

nothin at all amazingly I bought it over by gainsville on what we call mexico city...but all I need to do is put in a power steering belt would remove the decals but the paint stuck to them on one side so I will probably just leave them on till I get money for paint.

[WhiteLightning]

dx doesnt come with power steering......

[2.0civic]

dx doesnt come with power steering......

youre wrong..my 95 had it factory

[2.0civic]

plus im sure he wouldnt say he needed a belt if a pump was non existant...


caseyT, i was assuming that...i saw the car the other day on 985 going that way....just didnt want to offend mexicans by the generalization

[WhiteLightning]

thats weird then.my 97 didnt come with it

[2.0civic]

yup. i got mine from a old lady who i know wouldnt have bought it without PS then sold it awhile back

[ruffriderGA]

good for the price, is it high mileage?

try using heat to remove the decals. damn that thing sits almost as high as my accord ;)

[Turbodude06]

^^^^ yeah the heat will take it off My dad owns a viynl shop and I have to use a heat gun, or hair dryer on everything.

[sprix!]

Take off those questionable graphics and lower it a bit, and you will be set as far as appearance. Performance is another issue.

[Julio]

remove graphics before anything... 9111111111111111111

[caseyT]

Yea, I tried using heat by blow dryer and Im assuming that the person that had it before me had just tried to rip them off...so I will leave them on it till I can afford paint it has 140k but it runs great, shifts smooth, and sounds good so all and all good buy.

[UpSideDownDesi]

vinyl needs to ASAP

[caseyT]

Yea thats the first thing id figure id here from putting the picture on this...thnks for the feedback

[typerek]

slam it on some si's!!!!!! don't put an after market muffler until it has a setup that actually needs it!!!

[caseyT]

I havnt planned on putting a muffler on it yet....

[caseyT]

does anyone know about how many inches I should lower it

[SC430=sex]

sell it and get something else

[caseyT]

do u not like civics...

[allmotoronly]

Lambo doors altezza lights...

I hope you are kidding....

[allmotoronly]

does anyone know about how many inches I should lower it

it depends on if you are planning on doing it right or not. Any more than 1.25-1.5" and you will definitely want to install a camber kit as well. Also, the lower you go, the faster you will wear out the factory struts. Get a setup that either includes or will allow the use of aftermarket struts. For street driven cars, I would go no more than a 2" drop. go with good name brand springs if you do not want them to sag after 10k miles. tanabe are ok, skunk2 are decent, eibach are the best IMHO, or a set of Tein springs would work good.

[steedracer]

buy my mirrors.

[WHT_EP3]

dude a 2 inch drop for some reason on a civic is a little too high go lower like 2.5 or 2.75 with a type r lip or the mugen lip
by the way if you want to make your car look like the one in your sig. forget what i said on the top i dont like to ricers

[Sol-Badguy]

Lose graphics, lose rims, lower, i/h/e.

There's your starting point.

[atl]

boost the hell out of it swap it lip it and switch the rims take off the mex graphes drop it and sweetness

[Dirty Octopus™]

TAKE OFF ALL THE BULLSHIT! :D
for real though... F&F vinyls and rims gotta go...
Burn the wheels if you can. :goodjob:

BRB, The Dirty Octopus™ :bump:

[Sol-Badguy]

^I second the rim burning.

[SSMTL01]

take off the vinyls even if paint comes off in the process- the car is black so you can always spray paint it ;)

:thinking:
i guess whatever works huh? :dunno:

BRB, The Upchucka Mutha Ucka! :upchuck:

[sirkus]

paint the rims black... and slam it. Get some si tail lights and front end. Tint the windows like 15% and it'll look good. Regardless of the design. I'd rather have a shitty design than mess up the paint on a car.
I wish my design on the mustang wasn't painted on the fkn thing. :(

[Buford®]

Sell it and buy an EX. It'll cost the same. lol
