NEWBIE's HX Ride

[HXVtecBoy]

This is my ride, I'm working on it right now. Just painted my valve cover. Hope you enjoy, and give me some tip on what to do with it.

Welcome to CC. Good to see another Hx owner . If I were you I'd get rid of those fogs, they don't go well with the car imo, but otherwise good start.

 

[ineedhp]

the very FIRST thing i would do is what my man devin says, lower that thing. that wheel gap is crazy. looks like your ready for the off-road. you got a nice platform to work with though. just keep it clean. keep us posted!

 

[Partizan]

Yep, do suspension work first, you will be much happier.

you're name on here is HXVtecBoy...HX's don't have vtec right?

 

[lawrenceashley]

I agree, lower your car. A front lip would look good. Good luck.

 

[Mr. Lin]

you TOTALLY painted your airbox!!!

 

[HXVtecBoy]

they do have vtec! VTEC-E Engine 1.6L

Car looks good man. If your looking for a fun cheap mod for it. Paint the housing of your headlights. Fun cheap and looks great. For your first real mod tho, i agree with the others. definately drop it. I second the Tein suggestion (i have some S-techs and love them)

Picture of headlight.

[BlackHopeDC5]

this is the first time ive seen the engine bay of a stock hx...it looks much different than an ex...and why are hx's so rare? i see more si's than hx's

 

[PROS14]

nice ride u got there. lowerin is a good start but also an SRI/CAI and exhaust if u want a lil more power. did u do the valve cover urself? cuz it looks really good. keep it up and welcome to CC.

drop it, ditch the intake for an aftermarket or paint it black again, lose the wing, throw in an itr front lip and paint your moldings and stock side skirts to match the car and you're set cosmetic wise

 

[HXVtecBoy]

yupp everything i did was by hand and by me, i just ordered TEINs, CAI, struts, and also back type r lip, mugen front lip, and also Angel Eyes, so i'll post my car again once everythings installed.

[Jeegz]

nice HX. Welcome to CC! Its nice to see another Cheesehead!

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

First time I've ever seen the inside of an HX too. Does the HX have the cat built right onto the exhaust manifold like the cx/dx/lx?
