my new bud

[ReggieSD]

guess who i drove to work with today...

sorry..it's a phone pic. we're still getting acquainted. it's pretty hard driving her still...i mean, i can drive it...it's just different...i dunno. hard to explain. my friends say i should be good with her and i should pretty much not miss my old civic as much in about 2 weeks. i'll post better pics next time with the modlist.

So are you moving from an auto EX to a 5spd Si? Is that it?

Good move!

 

[ReggieSD]

lol! i never had an auto...i've always had a stick. but the si part is true.
here are a few more pics..

 

[ReggieSD]

it's the b16/b20 i was talking about before...it's got pretty good torque. haven't driven it much though...i'll take some good pics when i get home today.

[Mr. Lin]

yep...used the golden eagle ls/vtec kit.

 

[Mr. Lin]

Who did the work?

 

[ReggieSD]

friend of mine did...well i bought the car and the guy i bought it from had 2 buddies....which just happen to have a body shop for one bud, and a performance shop (same shop i went to for my old civic) for the other bud. so he got the hook up. so i'm just lucky i knew the people who did the work on the car.

I've been looking into CRVTEC for my civic too... which shop did you get it done at? somewhere in Arlington?

When are you going to roll that out to one of the DFW ClubCivic meets? 8)

 

[ReggieSD]

yeah man...well i take it to redline...but i just bought the car and the guy i brought it from is best friends with the guy who owns redline and the guy who owns autotrenz....autotrenz is the body shop but they helped him do the crvtec set up. but i know one of the guys who work at redline with the pearl white civic hatch has an ls/vtec on his car...with direct port nitrous....turbo killah...lol!

 

[Killa_CiViC]

That's cool... I'll have to check them out!

Although I'm still considering going with direct port nitrous on my Y7 due to high gas prices

 

[RaYrAy]

nice! that thing looks clean as hell!

 

[99CWCivicEx]

I was thinking about doing a b20/vtec still not sure. Really clean car though.

 

[42Steps]

Glad you like the new car.... You will love the increased torque and power from the old car.... And now you got a whole new platform to work on.....

 

[anfrey]

steve (high city) has a turbo crvtec in his civic.

 

[anekin007]

yeah sometimes guys have a hard time handling a woman...lol...
she's gonna need a lot of attention and TLC. don't spoil her too much so she can come begging for more. and when you let her down, let her down easy....

 

[ReggieSD]

i bought it for 13k...it's only been driven for 2 months since everything got done with the body, paint and the motor...they actually took it to h.i.n. in houston last month. so it might be a lil high to some of you but i totally understand the price coz the guy i bought it from wasn't planning on selling it till next year and i gave him a good offer. he was having a hard time parting it too... plus..i'll end up spending just about the same amount, if not higher if i bought my own si or civic and put my gsr motor in.
