...please get some different wheels....

nice turbo setup..how much it run you?

how fast do you think you can be with heavy chromes? are you going to go with light weight racing wheels for like...weekend racing?

Ive been seriously considering it. I like my wheels, so it doesnt matter what other people say, get rid of chrome, blah blah. I am gonna whoop on all these people who will talk crap and have their lightweight racing wheels. I cant wait to see their face when chrome just whoops on em. hehe. I already know I can be fast with chrome. In 4th gear my sh*t pulled pretty close to 1st stock. I was in the process of tuning, but my ICU is busted. So hopefully today or tomorrow at the latest it will be here. Here is a better pic of my ride. The chrome goes very well with it, IMO.

looks much better in this pic (and in person)

so far around 3300. I still have at least 500 to spend in the next months, but it can be tuned reliably as soon as I get my ICU, and run for as long as the motor will let it. I just need some upgrades, like clutch. My first mod after the tune.

not a big fan of chrome... but i love the turbo...

if you think i was being hostile, don't. i actually like the way your car looks as is. just wanted to know how fast you think it would be.

no, not you actually. I agree about some weekend or racing wheels. I am considering it bigtime. Just need some other things done first. I will eventually get some different ones. For now, I dont give a damn about my wheels, just my motor. Sorry, didnt mean to be rude. I just hear about my wheels everytime I post. I understand people hate chrome, ya know. But I like mine, and everybody else who sees my ride doesnt seem to hate them. (from what they say, hehe)

I am hoping for 180-190 for now (professionally tuned), until I do a little work, and probably some methanol.

I will let ya know monday hopefully what my HP/TQ is, tuesday at the latest. I really need to call the shop and set up a tune for next week. Only 150-200 out the door for the tune is a bomb deal for a dynojet, wideband tune

your right. you should be able to do whatever you want to YOUR car, without people commenting about it. to each person his/her own. :-)

I like the chrome on his car it looks very nice on the white if I was you though i'd get some 04-05 tail lights they would look nice on your car. good job with it though!

absolutely bangin! Chrome and boost in your face!!


First thing you should modify to that kit is the intake. What the hell is that rubber hose thing they call an "Intake"!? Haha. Me, CrewChief, and several other members with the TSI kits have modified SRI's to replace the included intake hose

And what happened to your polished heat shield that covers the manifold?

sweet, congrats on boost.........it is addicting

what setup is that? whos the turbo made by?

looks like a small turbo is that a t25? not making fun just wondering

Oh, i almost forgot to mention Gabe, modifying the intake helps u spool quicker and makes it louder. :D

i like the chrome on your car, looks very good. 04 tails would look good on there too

yeah, t25.

I am thinking of replacing that crappy hose with a nice pipe sometime soon. It was a b***h getting that stupid hose in that spot anyways. I need to get the piping by the drivers side front wheel redone as well so I can take a sharp right

Im not too sure about 04 tailz, I like the 01s better. 04s look more like a girls taillights, IMO. they seem a little lighter, plus I like how the 01s light up at night.

Peace

/\/\ don't convert to 04's, just smoke your 01's

White car + smoked rear light's = hotness

true...

I thought smoke lights and smoke covers went out with the 90's?

Did you get that memo?





EDIT: I like the rims, and if you like them then I guess you'll have to start ignoring peoples posts about them...

^ lol

those wheels are alrite for once. It doesnt have that weird rapstar bling like most chrome styled wheels do.

why do those NOT look like 17's? what size and what size tires do you have?

Oh and nice turbo by the way!

i personally dont like chrome rims on honda especially civics

yyes

They are 17"s on Kumho 711s (205-40-17) I am also dropped about 2".

I am gonna smoke my tailz sometime soon. Maybe in a month or so. I got a LOT of other stuff I NEED!. not want, need.
