Hey guys havent been on here in a longgggg time! Dont know if anybody remembers me but a few years ago i was a very regular member. My ep3 randomly blew up one day with 40000 miles and has been sitting ever since. Bought a few motors,and they ended up being bad..along with a ton of parts to do a build. Needless to say i got discouraged so i put that on the back burner and went out and bought a 99 miata just to tool around in. Got rid of that car quite quick and wanted a honda again. Got a 92 eg hatch and did a ton to it. Motors in,motors out,headaches, eventually after my h2b swap i decided im tired of playing with cars and got rid of that. I went out and bought a 2005 nissan altima se-r with 62000 miles on it. It was auto but it was fast,clean,comfortable and i loved it! A month later that was totaled by a drunk driver while parked and i was walking up to it..This brings us to this past june. Insurance gave me a good deal of money so i went out and bought another se-r, this one being a code red 6spd with 116000 miles. Modded the HELL out of it with the leftover insurance money and the car became quite a sleeper. My best time in it was a 13.7...well that car ended up starting to have little shit going wrong here and there and once again i became frustrated. Decided fuck it im buying a brand new car. Went out and got me a brand new 2012 civc si 4dr exactly a month ago. Got a really good deal on it too! So far i love the car a lot. I know a lot of people dont like them but i really do, and im glad to be back into a nice honda! I currently have my se-r for sale and will miss the performance and luxury a ton but i love my si! Sorry for the long post i doubt anybody will read it but im up late and bored and figured id stop in and say hi!
Here is the only pic i have of my 2012 si so far.

Mostly stock so far, got honda to throw in the oem window visors and all weather mats. Also did 8k HID headlights and foglights and all LED interior and license plate lights. Also removed the front plate and debadged the civic emblem. Ordered an intake too but that will be about all for awhile besides cosmetics because i wanna keep my warranty!
I sold a lot of the parts from my ep3 build but i still have a bunch left, i will be making a for sale thread soon. BTW the ep3 is still in my backyard waiting for love someday:) I just cant get rid of her. I know i know i could have fixed the ep3 for a lot cheaper but i just wanted a brand new car with zero worries. Sorry for the long post guys, hope everyone is doing well!
