I would pass on the fender flares. If you need flares on a Honda, you should just run a different wheel.
					
						
					
				
			
			 
			
				I don't think the flares with the rear lip don't look that clean, black flare and white lip, don't match at all
yeah, that's definitely nice. I usually don't like 4 door civics...
here go a couple mo'

A civic reguardless of mods will never be PURE sex on wheels, maybe sexy, but it takes RWD to get over that PURE sex line.
Oh and slammed cars like that look broken to me. I hate when the wheels tuck in that deep.

Is that a duckbill or am I just seeing things ?

I like the balanced feel of RWD, but you're right. There are some sexy FWD cars, the Del Sol you own, a 3000GT, etc. Is it at least safe to say that the Civic wasn't designed to be a sports car, but rather a family car that gets good gas milage and that makes it a lot harder to imagine as a machine of Sex appeal? I'm sorry, I don't see the craze with Civics, every owner I've ever talked to (in person, not all civic owners in general, maybe just the ones I know) say "It's quicker than you think it'd be. You'd be surprised" but I always am surprised, but not by the speed, but by the lack of speed after all the hype I'm given. I honestly don't see the attraction. It's a car with lego-like part compatibility that is lightweight. Good combination, if you have the money. I say start with a sportier platform if you're gonig for a sports car. nothing wrong with wanting a sensible car that can zip around a lot, but a purebread? sorry even the Sis aren't up to par for that.Originally Posted by Dirty Octopus™

Yet there is Civic Type R, Civic Si's, similar engines in the RSX's off the Honda's. You and every other other RWD nut swinging **** is the reason I keep wanting to get out of "the scene." You all think that what "the people" drive is the **** and there aint nothing better then that. Sure you are RWD, sure you might have a "drift car", sure you might have turbos, but about 80% of all you RWD nut swinging have a ****ty lookin car. I go upto and I see all the boosted 240's and RX-7's and its more like 1 out of 10 looks clean outside. All the others are ****. And wtf is so sex about RWD? Because you can slide in the a McDonalds drive-thru? Slide into a parking lot? LOL. Please, for God sakes, just shut the f*uck up. There is plenty of cool RWD owners but for the most part, those like you, are so stuck up about their "drift machine" that it's almost as if the only car out there on the road. Now, if you don't see that Civic being even nice, then you sir have no taste what so f*cking ever in cars. I'm done for the night.Originally Posted by 87 Turbo II
And yes I drive a f*ckin Honda.
AND btw, end d33z nuts.

Your definition of a sports car sounds like it has to be a Ferrari or Lambo... so that'll put your rx7 or any fc out there NOT a sports car, cuz I highly doubt you could pull up in it and pick up hot girls or guys (if that's what you're into).
Mr. Honda was smart enough to achieve a quick car with light weight, low power, low cost and a long lasting motor with a potential to make more power. Your's might be RWD, but I highly doubt it could out last a Civic and i know a few Civics or FWD cars that could out run majority of the rwd cars on IA... The Civic might not be a "sports" car, but it's sure as hell one of the top tuner's cars made... Either way, to each their own...
lol , heres another 4 dr for ya
not nearly as clean as the EK , but its what i like to call my own , lol
nice pics,,,,,
ricer
fender flares FTL..
How did I know I'd push a few buttons with that? Ok I'll just put it out there, that AS AN OPINION I don't like Civics. I will say a lot of ricers out there ****ed up civics for me, and to you non ricer civic owners, it's unfair to start you off at -1. Seriously though, all ricer images aside, it takes a CLEAN ass or a FAST as hell Civic to impress me, most out there aren't, the one in this thread has black fenders, and is slammed to a ricey height, sorry, not cutting it. Just because i PREFER the balance of rear wheel drive, I'd let it get away with the fenders if it had RWD(that slamming is hard to forgive though). I'm entitled to my opinion and if you can't handle an opinion that happens to dislike your car you shouldn't be on the internet. As for Type R civics, let me add a big "LOL". Last time I checked, this was Import ATLANTA, type R Civics are only sold in Japan, those are fast. As for American spec Civics: THE CAR WAS DESIGNED FROM THE FACTORY TO BE A GAS SIPPING GROCERY GETTER. I happen to prefer a car that was designed for speed out of the box THEN upgrade from there. Not start with slow and spend money to make it as fast as the other cars are stock, THEN spend even more money to surpass that point. I'm not saying Civics can't be nice, I'm just saying that one isn't, I don't particularly like them (opinion), and that I fail to see where the hype comes from. The end.
Look, a Civic I would respect looks like this:
not the flared out slammed car yo uposted. that IMHO looked alright, but nothing above ok. I admited it was sexy, just not someting to go crazy for.

It looks sexi, but would be better if the flares were painted.
I'm still trying to figure out why people think that FWD 3000gt's are sports cars. I haven't been to that many automotive sporting events, but I've never seen one thats anything other than a straight line car. Id rather have a civic over a FWD 3000gt anyday.Originally Posted by 87 Turbo II
Car looks good, except for the duckbill and what ever that shi-t is on the fenders..
Damn that's hot

This thread is proof, that the east coast will always be behind the time.
I like the fact, that he put fender flares on his car with the low offset wheels rather than just running the wheels. He gets props from me!

LAst time I check, people used the CTR engines and put them in our slow ass American spec shells and made them into beasts. And even tho this is US and not Japan, there are plenty of CTR runnin around the US. Hell, take a look at what my man rupertaker has been posting. Nothing but Type-R's, Type-R Shells, and he even sold a CTR. But there is nothing more to discuss on this situation because it'll just go back and worth and wont lead to anywhere.Originally Posted by 87 Turbo II
Thank you. I was beginning to wonder if anyone knew what it was on the back.Originally Posted by bigdare23

that's clean ,has nice paint, a CF, hood, and rims. The first one has mexi-tint (superdark, another craze I'll never understand) once again (and I don't see how you don't see this) it looks like the suspension is broken, it doesn't stand out to me at all. You could ask just about any guys on the Rx-7 forums, and we'd hate that so it's not just me. Maybe we're assholes but Civics are OVER RATED. Get over it, if you own one, your ownership is blocking you out from seeing it.Originally Posted by bigdare23

I agree with you 100%. 2nd gen RX-7 owners are haters! For example, my uncle loves his 7 to death and all he talks about is "how he's going to kick my ass when he gets it running"Like I posted before, YOU NEED TO GET OFF YOUR D AMN HIGH HORSES!!! If you don't like civics cool, but dont hate because your car doesn't get as much love.
*EDIT*
After doing some research of your mighty RX-7, performance wise, it's no better than a civic (not including the FD). An 87 Turbo (your model) runs a 1/4 in 15.3, my swapped CRX with bolt-on is faster than your "turbo" car. A non turbo FC runs 16s, and thats about the same as a stock civic![]()

well Civic owner mentality is pretty ****ty too. Most are ricers. Even you saying "oh, so you like a stock looking civic". Modding like that is clean and tasteful. If you think it's "bland" or "boring" then that explains it. Not appreciating sublte, stylish, yet individual mods is what being a ricer is all about. Flashy "look at me! I'm insecure" parts are what you want, fine by me. you "live your life a quartermile at a time" with Paul Walker and Vin Diesel. Rx-7s get plenty of love for me.Originally Posted by bigdare23
Also, where did I say my car was faster? I still don't like Civics, my car doesn't change that. I do however think my car is sexier, and better balanced. THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT IT AND THAT IS WHY IT IS MY (for the 50 billionth time) OPINION!!!!!!. If you can't get over the fact that people hate your car (it's not just the 7 club, LOTS of people hate Civics) then get off of internet forums or stop being a b*tch and take the criticism. I don't like your car. boo hoo, go talk to some fellow Civic owners, they'll make you feel better, because you're not converting me. If you Civic owners "hate people like me" I'll have you know I just don't go around saying "Civics suck" it's the Civic owners I know and talk to that give the civic a bad impression I only happen to bash when I feel hte need to intervene. A man ccalling a grocerie getter with ugly mods "PURE SEX" is one of those moments where I want to but in and say, "hold on, WHAT?" I don't bash for the hell of it, I bash when it is deserved,. Just like you're going to move one step closer to thinking 7 owners are a**holes because of me, I'm going to think Civic owners are ricers and distasteful because of that car one page one (seriously man, it's WAY TOO LOW). Be mad at the ricer Civic owners, not me, they're the reason so many people hate your car.

What is this "both run 16's" ****? Do you really think I bought my car to take to the strip to get romped on by $4k mustangs? Nope, I would have bought a stang. I bought my car because it is one of the best/cheapest for what I want to to with it, road race. Which for some reason always passes right through a FWD owner's mind, all they care about is straight line speed, which is the only thing FWD can do mildly well without extensive/expensive chassis modification.Originally Posted by bigdare23
BTW, I've got a stock Turbo car, want to put $500 on 3 laps at Road Atlanta? Then we can see how much "faster" your rex really is.

Man, I don't think I even want to get one just because I'd have to ask you guys for info whenever I needed help. I mean seriously, if you don't like how low it is, then say that. You don't have to call it ricer because its not ricer, its the way he likes to ride. Maybe some people like to ride low and some people like to ride balanced, like YOU said, its all an opinion and everyone can voice it. But you're voicing your opinion and making yourself sound like a little *****. And if you think our CIVICs are so RICE and ugly...then lets see your 7. I haven't one picture of your car yet, wheres your sex car? I haven't seen one pic. I've seen lots of FD's that are TEH SEX! But, yours? I can tell on your sig that is stock as hell and don't have the right to bash. I myself have an ugly stock and dented up civic but I love it because its mine and I'm in the process of doing what I can to make it better. Where are you at? Probably got your head stuck too far up another fellow 7 owners ass....![]()
