Finally, I just got my 03 Civic EX Coupe back from my race shop, with the new Bullfrog Re-grind camshaft and AEM Tru Time Cam Gear installed. It has changed everything that I had ever liked obut my 7thgen. I can feel the power instantly, even though I retarded the gear one notch. I suggest that everyone with a 7thgen do some sort of cam job, it makes a substantial difference...tell me what you guys think or if you guys have any questions...

Sweet How much did that cost ??

 
Rep Power: 0

No I haven't made any changes to the head...the only thing that I have done is added a Comptech cold air intake, because the cam runs so much better with alot of air. Yes, i have raced some people on my way to class this afternoon, my freinds 00 Si, another friends Celica GT, and an 01 Si Hatch. i beat the 00 Si and Celica like cake, but the 01 Si hatch was a really close race. I pulled away in the end only because my cam is a really aggressive high-end cam, not your typical replacement. Only downside to them is that your idle RPM increases a bit, but i would reccomend it to anyone with a 7thgen that trusts a race shops quality very well...

Phillip, you had it right, one was the regrind, and one was the original. For me, the overall cost was $350 USD because I have some hook ups at a place called DB Motorsports.

DH is doing a turbo re-grind on my cam. I cant wait to get it back.

regrind cam = bad quality
01 si hatch = hope that is a misstype bc there is no 01 si hatch

however congrads on your mod

for the people that think im bad mouthing him im not.. i had a reground cam and it was crap.. thats why i had a custom one from crane done...as a matter of fact i was the first one on this site to have a new cam back 2 years ago but that car is gone now..

Okay, I don't know how you could say that there is not a 01 Si Hatchback, you have a picture of one in your avatar??? That model started in 2001 as a 7thgen Si Hatchback...You might wanna check on that again, because I have proof that my friends contract says 2001 Civic Si...

The new civic Si hatch came out at the end of 01 at the earliest and was a 02 model. There is no 01 Si.

 
Rep Power: 374

Dude. Post a pic of your friends contract. The new SI HB didn't come out until the 02 model.

 
Rep Power: 301

i run with 99-00 si's all day and they don't over power me...whta i'm asking is, is it an *** kickin in the seat of your pants mod because it costs 550 from gude regular and i don't want it if it's just a little power...not tryin to be a ****, just curious

I swear to God i'll post his ****ing window tag, it says, "2001 Civic Si," what the hell do you think that I am, some dumbass that doesnt know the years of cars, and just randomly selects years to place on them, why do people have to bitch and moan about such little ****?

 
Rep Power: 349

some cars do come out alittle early in cali but everywhere else they are marked 02'.... 03hondaex losen up those pants

 
Rep Power: 349

oh and 03hondaex u might wanna change your profile future mods list around bc u should learn what u can actually get for your car before u list what u want

03HondaEx, Spider is correct. There is NO 01 Si. Unless you live in Canada. And that version Si isn't a hatch, its a coupe.

Congrats! Don't worry about arguing semantics, as that will just sidetrack this thread.

As far as the cam being a regrind, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Some shops know what they are doing, others don't. Not all regrinds suck @ss. Granted, I (as well as everyone else on here) wouldn't mind seeing an actual replacement drop in cam for our car, but seeing as how that will never happen I think you went the right route.

Regarding having Crane make Spider a custom cam - that's bling, I'm sure, but we all can't afford such luxuries.....Wonder how much it cost him?

 
Rep Power: 349

pretty penny lets just say.. ok ok 600 or so.. but that car is no more

Look at this kids profile? JDM Type R pistons, 4-2-1 DC Header, JDM big bore throtle body? What a wanksa!

 
Rep Power: 0

hahahaha


jdm type r pistons? one, the type-r pistons wouldnt fit in the d17
two, dc sports only makes the 4-1 header for the d17
jdm big bore throttle body? im not even gonna start on that one.


and yeah, why are there two cams?

And to make Spider happy, I'll change my damn profile, anything else you guys want to rail on me for? Cause I've had alot of **** today, and I don't need more verbal bashing...

if you change your camshaft (regrind / custom) will it mess up the emmmision?? will it still pass the smog????

 
Rep Power: 0

Go get a dyno of it because I cant afford to pay that much money for anything under 20 whp.

 
Rep Power: 301

i know gude guarantees 17-20 horsepower from the cam

 
Rep Power: 0

Ya they do assure that you gain between 15-20 hp, and trust me I did because I can feel it...in addition to the cam gear as well...

 
Rep Power: 0

Looks a little weired, the two cams are not anywhere close and it doesn't seem like it will fit in D17.

 
Rep Power: 323

I was wondering the same thing. Whats up with the pic? What exactly are the cams in the pic for? and congrats on the new mod.
