Thanks everyone, yeah the dealer pinstripes are a toss up with me right now but I think I'm going to start piecing together my CTR kit within a couple weeks. Then after the kit I'm going to look into either a head swap or boost.

It was a pretty straight forward install, just had to drill a hole to run the brake light which is no big deal, the destructions arent even for our car but as long as you can read and you dont have A.D.D its really simple:D

How do you like your magnaflow exhaust?

Nice ride, but i vote for more of a drop...

CIVICBOOST
08-29-2003, 12:17 AM
It sounds great to me and added quite a bit of power, I was surprised. If I didnt have the Magnaflow I would have got the Spoon for sure but I decided to keep it similar to stock

I figured that my Sportlines would have made my car looked slammed but I am happy with the way it turned out, once I get my CTR kit it will look better. Plus I do alot of driving on the freeway, and CA freeways suck

Its more less which head unit and speakers do I want to get because I've already got subs and amps from my old Civic in the garage. I'm going to make it sound good enough to hear it over my exhaust:D

What are those lil ovals on the side of the wing? It kinda disrupts the whole clean white look. Sweet ride!

this is kinda off topic but civicboost if u look close at paint do u see clear coat scratches like very very small ones that are hairline scratches in clearcoat. i do and it sucks bc i chose black and my god it is a damn beast when clean. but u get up close and the damn thing has alot of small scratches from drivein like 80 when it is hot and dirty bc the shit gets slung onto the side of car like road dust or rubber. i am pissed at hondas shitty ass paint job it is horrible.

CIVICBOOST
08-31-2003, 09:03 PM
yeah I got those damn swirls too, I was going to get the black Si at first then changed my mind at the last second and got white. I had a 94 black Civic, it looked awesome when it was clean but if I went a little over 1 week the paint was awful looking, showing all kinds of dirt and dust. Who knows somewhere down the road when its time for a new paint job I might paint my car silver. If you use Scratch X then wax I think it takes care of the swirls but dont quote me on that.

MrCivic03
08-31-2003, 09:08 PM
hey i am usin scratchX and reflections polish and goldclass liquid wax havent done all three on the civic yet but did my sisters g20 and it looked good but i still could see the scratches does mothers have a better scratch remover. thanks if ne one knows

CIVICBOOST
08-31-2003, 09:34 PM
I've heard pretty good stuff about 3M swirl remover, give it a shot I know I am.

MrCivic03
08-31-2003, 09:56 PM
ya i heard that it is too and not that bad of price just make sure the one u buy is for light colors and the one i gettin is for dark bc u could totally f ur car up. i love the reflections btw it makes a very shiny shiny black and nice and smooth when done. also if i paint car in far future like 2-3 years i am goin to have like 4 clearcoats put on bc infinity and nissan are painted with this much and i mean just wash the car and it is so smooth no wax no nothing. and i love that.

You need the Divx codec installed, did you just click the link or save target as? Should be working

MrCivic03
09-03-2003, 12:07 PM
i have a divx codec and i saved it but still can only hear but cant see. and what is it sounds messed up.

Whoisray
09-03-2003, 12:37 PM
Its working for me now. I had to DL a newer version of the divx player. The video says its over a minute long but its only 48secs.

Nice video! Wow the exhaust sounded LOUD and deep. Its a nice loud but it might be too much for me. THx for the video! They should post it on the exhaust clips thread.

CIVICBOOST
09-03-2003, 07:15 PM
I edited the compression on the video so it can now be played on Windows Media player as well, sorry for making you work for it. Im just a rookie at this video stuff:D

NamingException
09-03-2003, 09:41 PM
Just to make sure, you had the windows down while recording that, right? It sounds like you do, but you never know. Sounds good. I am pretty sure I'm going to get this exhaust system.

Edit: typo.

CIVICBOOST
09-03-2003, 10:18 PM
Yeah windows down, but the exhaust is louder with them up.

CIVICBOOST
09-22-2003, 11:07 PM
Heres a new something something I threw together the other day.
Right Click and Save Target As:
If you cant see it then try updating your divx codec. enjoy

Where did you get you BC Kit and how did it fit? Did you need alot of Mods?

CIVICBOOST
10-22-2003, 03:20 PM
I bought it from the dude around the corner because he's going back to stock and selling his Si and getting a 350Z. I paid $700 for the JDM Buddy Front/Sides and VIS hood, I lucked out because the kit was already painted he helped me install it and we just swapped rear Mudflaps. I had to remove the front impact beam and the brackets under the headlights and the mounts for the bumper lights. Took about 1 hour total to swap everything off his car and put it on mine. There is 7 coats of clear on the white, and if I need a repaint down the road he said to call him up and he'll hook me up again:D :D

CIVICBOOST
12-29-2003, 08:00 PM
I'm swapping out my Injen SRI for an AEM CAI this coming Friday, that way I'll get max performance from my Hondata tune and other mods.:D

For those of you that remember the first pics I had up, the cars a whole lot different now as you can see from my first post and mod list:D

No believe me they match, its just the camera I guess, the darker pics were taken around 5:30pm and the lighter pics were taken at my work around 3:00pm and the glare from the sun was really bad, I'll have to snap new pics with my POS camera.:D
