Yea there were ALOT of nice car were there. Supermex with the orange civc was there too. I never saw who won best civic. I though that supermex would take best civc, but he didn't and his car is amazing. It extremly hard to win at HIN.
And club particiation means that my club brought the most cars

Not really feeling the car, the R34 kit just doesn't do it for me, guess i'm more for a cleaner style, but props for the work. These shows look for different things, just because u have a lot done doesn't mean you'll win. The more rare your parts and the name brand of them, the better. You have some Konig wheels and someone else has Volk or Work wheels, they will score more points. Just a heads up

You can disagree, but all i know is when a car has better parts and are more rare and such, they are the ones that win, just cause cars have a lot done doesn't mean they look good. All judges i've talked to look for these parts and look for parts others don't have or can't have.

^^^ What do you mean by rare parts and brand name parts. Do I not have "rare" or "brand name" parts on my car? (and yes I know my wheels aren't brand name, i don't know what they are lol)

rare parts, like older wheels that are no longer being made. brand name parts like, recaro, bride, status, volk, work, etc. big name brand names. Backyard specialties, j's racing,
you can't tell me these don't score you more points then having some no name thing on your car, or else no one would buy it. it costs money for a reason. i'm not knockin your car at all. you done a lot of hard work to it. but i'm just saying.

Yea I get what your saying. It seemed like you were saying that I have a whole bunch of no name stuff on my car. I just don't thinks that brand name wheels and seats will win you a HIN show, they help though. But w/e its all good.

get some brand name rims, the Big Brake Kit, Toss on some under body neons, paint all those yellow wire cover things to the same color as your ride, convert those rear drums to disks, paint your valve cover the same as ur car, throw in some jdm engine socks, fiberglass ur trunk, or at least remove the factory lining... and then throw a neon in there.. actuall while u are at it, go ahead and relocate your battery to the trunk, flip flop the trunk, dont add a wing or altezzas, judges will count off. And what does your interior look like??
edit: Also invest in hood shocks, never mind about the interior i saw pics, change your shifter ****, and your gauges. did u ever fix ur airbag??
after all of that, u will be taking home trophies at all the bigger shows

^^^^^ All of that is in the works.
But I think I might put this car on hold for a little. I have another 04 LX, so I am going to try to drop a K20 in it and keep it as my daily driver. So now I am saving up some $$$$.
Thanks dopeyboy

you should really consider putting a oil catch can to increase crank case ventilation. they way you have it set up right now, you will blow your rear main seal. boosting only increases crank case pressure and now you have no way for it to draw out the pressure. the pcv create a ventilation that the crank needs. as well you should get a dump tube made for the wastegate. i am not even a judge and i see things that shouldnt be there and some that should.
nice car though. i am not knockin ya. just stating the obvious!
