^^^ ok I'm not going to hate on your car as bad as some people, but that comment was just gay.

anyways, I'd MUCH rather see everything paint matched. I like the white coupe in the first set of pics you posted.
no man, he's right. i wish for nothing more than to possess a carbon fiber front lip for a honda civic.

@darkCreep: can u tell me more please ? why loosing horsepower ?
i thought this way is good for fresh cold air,and the same like other cold airintakes ?
at first i want a "wal-penis" carbon intake,but everybody here is tellin me,that the opened filtre in the engine bay only get hot air from the header...and hot / warm air is not the best :/

@Chonne: hahah thanks man :P i love your style,and your ride was the last Kick to make ma dream real =) the color is the smokey granite too,but its darker than yours...i dont know why. its really lookin black. i love it.
the rims are chillin in my room^^ i still dont know which tires i should buy. 195-40,or 205-40 :?:

the last weekend i swapd the engine...actually i will be runnin with a y8...but im still waitin for my obd2a to obd1 switch adapter,and have to wire the oil pressure and vtec and else.
the engine bay is red painted now.
the red parts are matador red mica.

which middle section can u guys advise me ? i dont like the dc2 middle section.

are they 16s?? I would go with the 205s..... I have 205-45s on my 16s.... but i seen people ride on 40s... it'll just make your car look lower because of the smaller diameter......

yes, i have 7x16s...flat black slips. a buddy here is rollin on 195-40,and it looks really sick...on rollin shots u only see rims...no tires :D but 195 is to small imho.
but i think ill buy 205-40s...Hankook Ventus and Kumhos are acutally here really good sellin ! toyos are lame,they are to loud and on a little bit rainy ways u have 0%grip

People are idiots.


Is that hose connected to the throttle body or is it just feeding the intake filter cool air? If its feeding it air then you are okay. Reason I say you are losing horsepower is because all the grooves in the hose are really restrictive and add turbulence to the air. You want smooth clean bends.

Youre not gunna get hot air from the header. I prefer short ram intakes to cold airs, but thats just me. Whale penis intakes are loud as f**k and IMHO, one of the best designs of all after market intakes. It keeps an air pocket for really low end torque, and it still has smooth bends for high end power.
