Luke.


in the long term yes. im only 17 with limited money, and ima end up having to rebuild the engine, but i leave for bootcamp in 9 months, the performance will start increasing drastically after bootcamp, and yes i mean the cars. =]

Plans are for now looks - cause its cheaper

after boot - B16 swap, turbo, stage 2 clutch, short throw shifter, and many more =]

Been wanting a civic for a long time, 19's a good age to start I think though.

Yea :thumb: . And you will be happy to know that when i repaint it, it will be staying red :lol:

But as much as i hate to say I even hate how im handling it, looks then power... If you can afford it go power first, I'f much rather a sleeper than a souped up looking POS

both put down bout the same exact power though.



This is no where near correct! The D15z1 and the JDM D15b 3 stage do not put out ABOUT anything near the same numbers. One is 92hp (VX) and the other is 130....
