Hey guys..My name is Ryan, i recently purchase a vivved blue 2003 EP and i love it! finally i found a site to call my home..my previous car was a 2001 nissan altima that i had common mods for..( Intake, exaust, lowered, 18's, spoiler, kit ordered, system..etc etc..but it got hit by a van and it never felt the same so i traded it in) since the trade in i have grown to love my new ride..... i just purchased a DC sports CAI yesterday and i cant wait to get it and put it on..

so just saying hi you will be hearing from me more often!

Welcome bro, you will find yourself addicted to this site in no time. I hope that you get the CAI in soon, because thats key with this engine, you will love it, and the sound......

My first recommendations to do are as followed, and i promise you will be even more in love with your car after you do so.

1. CAI - You got it, so check that off
2. Springs or Coilovers- You will see a whole new car after its lowered, and stiffer.
3. New Tires (wheels are nice, but tires are key, stock suck)

Good luck bro, keep us posted.

well i lost about 2 grand on my trade in of my altima..i had 7000 worth of damage and they didnt total it...so the car lost value from that..i paid roughly 18k for the SI brand new..last july. which isint bad since the sticker was 19 and i was trading in a car that had shown signs of being repainted...

as for mods.. well i plan to add a mugen front lip, H and R lowering springs, Kosei K1 ultra lights with tires ( have a hookup through tirerack) wings west sides and rear, DC sports stainless steel header, HKS catback, short throw shifter... and thats about it, hopefully all by summers end this year..

oh and a basslink in the trunk.

Damn, Opt Auto here i come........ and as far as your mods i see you've done some home work..........

btw, a few guys have the Kosie's so look around and do a search so you can see if you like em, i think they are nice, i like some others better but if you have a deal you better get em.

im sure they got a limited supply of the intakes and tie downs so u might want to order soon.. as for the koseis im not 100% sure i want to get them, kosei has a few new rims out that i might be interested in...

i just want to do my civic right, i wasted way to much money on my altima..
