yeah i bought it as an original Si, but had it jacked, and had full coverage and still under warranty so the dealer replaced the Si. i kinda came out on top because the insurance company gave me money for the stolen car, and also under the dealers warranty so i got $8800 from them, I used that to get a type r in there with pro installation. also bought some B series internals. 2 months later (im so stupid) it got stolen again and this time with the type r in it. karma came back on me, and I was out of the warranty and the insurance company wouldn't help since it was previsouly stolen 2 months ago. I had to sell some stuff and save up my pennies. the car wasn't recovered until 4 weeks later. it was sad everything I put in it went to waste. they stole EVERYTHING. even the rear "civic" emblem. it was in the middle of no where, with bear cans and Coorona bottles all over and inside her. you can tell they came back and forth to get more parts. anyway long story short my buddy had an EK ex which he got it dirt cheap in an auction for his dad. he gave me the parts he didn't need and gave em to me. I got his EX spoiler and his grill. I only had little bit of money so I had to drop in put in a B16 I bought from my cousin. also just basic stuff like the Si seats, and couldn't afford the Si cluster so installed an EX cluster. thecars been through a lot, and just recently my cousin sold me a GSR for $800. I had the choice between LS/VTEC but thru the good guidence of ClubCivic, was advised to go with the GSR. im happy with the results, and plan to boost it up but hide or disguise the intercooler so ppl don't see the turbo. im saving up my money to get some more internals, its pretty much stock for right now. sorry for the loooong story but that's the life of my Betsy.
