my car is a peice of shit
 
:_doh: i dont kno what me and my dad were thinking when buying a car for me, i wanted something that was good on gas and reliable, but damn, my si civic didn't come with much else... first of all it has NO balls, and there is NO POINT in putitng in 4 grand to boost 10 hp, secondly, and worse of all the ride is soooo shitty, it feels like the car has no suspension sometimes, and lastly, the price on this car is way to high for the peice of shit your given.

D :mad:

lol...I was considering the new Si when I got my new car. it was a little weak when I took it for a test drive, but it was being offered to me for 16k...i opted to spend an extra 3k and get the mazda...

You bought a car without knowing how it performs :_doh: . Don't say your car suck ! cuz you suck ! Oh ya, if you want a car that performs like a Ferrari you better save up noob !

stl01civic 03-05-2004 03:06 AM

why starting *itching about it. should of test drive the car before buying it.
and "there is NO POINT in putitng in 4 grand to boost 10 hp" I think you can get a lot more then 10hp, out of a turbo on a si

Quit whining. Consider it a challenge.

For you information the K-series motors take sometime before they a broken in. It took about 6,000 miles before the K20A3 in my old SI was broken in all the way. Oh and as for boost, the K20A3 response great to boost. 8psi and you will double your HP. It just goes to show that you expected the world from it. Its a Civic. If you want a car that handles great and is fast to start with get a STI or EVO. Otherwise start modding your SI and STFU.

That's a very good point. Whenever you buy ANY Civic, you always have to start building it up if you want it to have "some balls". With an Si, you've got a lot of options. Silver_Si, you could even buy a K20A2, drop it in, and sell your K20A3. All in all, you'd probably spend about $2000 for it all, or less. Or turbo it, like someone said. It's a pretty good platform to start with.

I started with an EX, and it's tougher.

But once you start modding the car, you realize that the car starts getting better and better. It's a challenge, but the rewards are awesome. If you didn't feel like modding your car, you should've started with an SRT-4 or something.

i think the si has alot more than you're making it out to be. it responds great to mods and has a ton of aftermarket support. join clubsi.com or ephatch.com and see what others have done to improve the car.

to be honest i wish i had gotten a si instead of my ex, but like most people on here...we take it as a challenge. :_beer:

guamcivic2k1 03-05-2004 10:39 AM

if you dont like ur car..why dont u give it to me then?

hondaciv01 03-05-2004 10:56 AM

si's aren't the horrible car you be making them out to be. they are very cheap, reliable, can still be daily driven very easily, responds absolutley great to boost and other mods, and has potential for good numbers for a car that costs well under 20k

Learn how to drive first, THEN go on a tantrum about how much your car sucks. Honestly, When I had my 300ZX I thought I beat people because my car was super fast. Now that I have a foockin Civic, I realize half of these kids that drive much nicer and faster cars than I just plain suck at driving. The other night I shit my pants because I beat an RSX by about a car length. Why? CRAPPY DRIVER! The other morning I DESTROYED some ugly Focus riced out hatch thing, while I was eating a Pop Tart on my way to work. Why? CRAPPY DRIVER! The best part was the guy asking me what I had done to my car when we got to a stop. I have a stock EX. So yeah, sorry about the rant, but a lot of you guys complain, and treat Civics like mildly retarded children. They aren't bad cars at all. I like mine. This is coming from a guy who previously owned a 400+ HP sports car.

DistinctiveBP 03-05-2004 09:16 PM

mmmm...300zx :drool:

silverem2 03-05-2004 09:17 PM

i gotta agree with everyone here, I had my doubts when i bought my ex, but then i remembered why i bought it. I wanted to get a car that wasnt fast to start out, but I could make it fast, do a swap possibly and make it nice. hey a good think about hondas is they have TONS of parts for them. Not all other cars have as many options, so you should be happy/
