01 civic ex auto's

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]01 CIVIC's They suck.....all the new civics suck. Plastic intake manifolds, whats that crap. Honda has the most popular sport compact car to tune due to its capabilities to be tuned. And they went and designed this crap for the environment. They engine bays are small as *****. The only thing capable of swaping is a k20. Plastic intake manifolds, you cant run boost on it. The suspension blows. If you put every bolt on possible and nitrous like i did on a ex auto, you will still have the slowest car on the road. This is a fair warning to all, if you are about performance and speed, stop wasting your money on these civics. Go older and do an engine swap with internals to run boost. I plan on getting rid of my POS just as soon as anyone makes an offer, they would be retarded if they did[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] I'm not bringing any of your cars down here, some of them look pretty pimp, but these civics just arent cutting it at the street racing and 1/4 mile scene, they just make a laugh out of people including myself.

right...cause helping the environment is a bad thing...thats the first point.
second point: you got an AUTO!!!! if youre "about performance and speed" that was your first mistake!
third point: how dumb do you have to be to think you can have a performance car when the label tells you the car has 127HP!!!

trust me, you dont need a 1/4 mile or the street racing scene for people to laugh at you...you just need to start talking. LOL

Damn captain you are a dumb@$$



Ok guys.....there is no way any of those numbers are correct. I have every bolt on possible on an EX plus i am spraying a 50 shot, to make sure my car ran what it did, i ran it every week at the track. 16.1 was my best time. 16.2's consistantly. My reaction times couldnt be better, my 60ft's couldnt get better, everything was perfect. 2k1 civics suck ***, its the truth, i am getting rid of my POS. I mean, come on guys any car with a PLASTIC MANIFOLD! is not going anywhere unless you go the distance and have one custom built for a turbo or nitrous. Thats not cheap. Just admit it, every dime you spend on your 7th gen civic is a waste if you are looking for POWER, but looks is a diff story. Your best bet is to get rid of it now while its still worth something. http://www.7thgencivic.com/forum/mes...ighlight_key=y


http://www.7thgencivic.com/forum/mes...ighlight_key=y

My 2k1 has an aem sr, dc header, underdrive pulleys, highflow cat, and a 50 shot of nitrous and i only run a 15.5

Dude I just crapped my pants.

Let me tell you what I was thinking when I bought my car...

"It looks nice. It's comfortable. Great on gas. Reliable. Good Warranty."

You've proved your idiocy by calling a civic a "sport compact".

It's a FREAKING ULEV COMMUTER CAR!!!!!!!

First of all, i won the damn car in a driving contest...free...paid off.....i had to hang on to it due to the media that was dropping by every now and then and wanted pictures with the car and had questions about the car. I said well chit, its a civic, you have to be able to do chit to these to make them quick. As i started modding and going more into them they started to show more and more how much they suck. Not quality or comfort wise. The looks of them are straight, I am strictly talking about 2001 auto ex civics. If you want to make an offer on an AEM short ram intake.......DC sports 4-1 header....Brand New in box Ground Control coilovers.......or AEM underdrive pullies. Email me at Civicsi20@hotmail.com This is for all the flamers on the site[IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]
