    Sorry for your loss man. I had a friend of mine who I hadn't spoken for a few years, then we recently got in touch a few months ago, pass away in a car accident last week. He was a crummy kid in HS but really turned his life around, became a firefighter, had 3 kids (3rd is only 5 mos old) and a...

    b18 hatch questions

    I can't really say for B-series, but slapping a Vtec head on my D-series motor was not worth it. My B18 motor had no Vtec, and that wasn't enough either. Didn't want to do a head swap since I was disappointed by the D-series swap, so I ended up going turbo. That's still the most fun vehicle I've...

    Low oil pressure fn2 type r

    I think that's normal. When the car stalls, you lose oil pressure, therefore triggering the light. I haven't stalled in a while so I honestly never noticed. I also don't own an 8th gen (or a Civic for that matter). Unless the light comes on with the engine running, I wouldn't worry about it...

    Is it worth it to get a turbo?

    Yeah, I had a Go-Autoworks kit. Greg is a stand up guy and I will vouch for his company and the quality of his parts. Any issues that I had were addressed instantly. i.e. 2 broken clamps, so he overnighted me 6 more free of charge. I couldn't pass inspection with my car after it was boosted (I...

    Is it worth it to get a turbo?

    Yes it's worth it, but as long as you don't get a cheapo turbo kit. Look into Go-Autoworks turbo kits, and most importantly, get a good tune. Your car's engine seems healthy enough, but make sure to do proper maintenance as well. Timing belt / water pump, new clutch to handle the extra power...

    97 Civic Cigarette Lighter Wiring Issue

    Have you removed the plastic and tried to look for the plug? I bet it's there, just hard to see with all the plastic parts in the way. I remember when my adapter came loose, I unplugged it to see how to tighten it, and the plug slipped down.. had to remove all the plastic panels just to get to it

    What are you doing / did you do today / CHAT THREAD

    Golfed well last night. On the 18th hole par 3 we all hit our first shot, then discovered blackberry bushes. Went to town on those, and only stopped because the guys 2 holes behind us caught up. Went home and played some Halo MC and once again attempted (and failed) to beat the final level in...
