My name is Robert i am 17 and this is my 1999 Civic CX...

The paint on the car isn't the best but I have seen worse. The wheels are ICW's not sure of the style. My dad bought me this car after my 1990 Celica was rusted to hell and back a few times over so we sold it and got this. i have not done anything to it. the wheels came with it and i like them so we kept them. The engine is rather week being its a SOHC D16Y7... but anyway here are some pics any questions just PM me or something.

Current mods:

Stereo System:
two Sony 12" Xplod's
JVC door speakers
Kicker 6x9's
Autotech AMP
Wal-Mart Capacitor
OLD Alpine AMP
Pioneer DEH-3900MP head unit

Performance:
I removed the extra air box thing and the hose leading to the Air filter
The previous owner put NGK Plug Wires on

My Stock Exhaust revving to 7200rpm

Um i took the pipe thing and the random box off. I noticed a difference in power.

um Future plans im not sure yet.

So far Repaint and Lower do the suspension then B16 Swap.

my paint idea is Repaint the same color with fine silver with metal flake ghost flames, 5 star Bronze wheels with silver polished lip.
Also have a round muffler kinda turned outward and have it put on the drivers side. either the JP bodykit or just Lips for the front and rear.

It'll look good when im done.

But i need to find a job so this will have to wait.

put your intake back on, I cant imagine all the s**t getting in your engine.

But, overall nice. I love hatchies - they are a great base to start with.

Umm. thats just red clay mud i havent gotten to it yet.
yea ill get a car alarm. but i also live in a very small community where everyone knows everyone. so i would know who done it then i would have to beat there ass. but im still planing on getting one



Also i put the Hose back on my airbox so no more hot air.

and the flames i have visualized in my head i think it will look good but have have a good artist draw it out and find a good painter to do it if i like it

I came up with an engine swap idea.

it is from a 1997-03 Pontiac.

Stock makes 260HP and over 300TQ.

its the 3800 Series II Supercharged V6 ( L67)

Not sure how posable this is but i think it could be done but motor mounts will be fun to get

and yes these engines are CRAZY torquey

My dad has 2 grand prixs one GTP (L67) (with some mods) the other GT(L36) same engine but N/A and he bought my grandmother a regal with a (L67) so i know what the capable of

But i think this engine in a little civic would be damn quick only bad part is all grand prix's are automatic

also all manual trannys have pretty much shattered when put to this engine even with mods to the tranny

i didnt think they had that much torque but i didnt do that much reasearch on them. put a pully on the charger and you will notice power as well, and uh... i myself wouldnt drop a 3800series2 engine in my car, they are REALLY good platforms though. amazing engines. if you want torque, go with an h22a swap, ive heard that your engine bay has more room than the eg's. anyway... nice car, its hard to do stuff to the car with no job, lol, i know.

lol yea no job no progress on the car.

But yea i took a wild guess at the tq and hp they put 240hp and 280tq but through a 5th gen blower, TOGs and a CAI and thats whats up.

Good start, Just get it lowered with some SI or gsr wheels and throw a B16a motor in it.

Well sad to say i traded it......

for i riced out focus..... thats now my dads because im not driving no focus.... though its starting to look better....

so i now have a 1989 Nissan 240sx.... that was backed into a pole :( not me though...... i always wanted one of these =) one of i would say a dream car...... such as a Supra TT (lol wish i could)

so just letting everyone know whats up with the car..... i did take good care of it but was wanting RWD so i can have fun and be dumb......(but safe..... not to worry)

if you want some pics i guess ill post them..... it does need to be fixed....
