Civic engine bay (yes, its turbo)
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid91/peb54061e5db3c5655da5eb5fadfc7122/fa6edddd.jpg

The civic is a 1.6 SOHC with too many mods to list, if anyone actually cares i may post a mod list later. less than 7lbs per HP, and drag radials.. enough said


:D

[TT]

Well, to tell the truth, I'm not really against "ricers" as long as the car still has clean lines and from the first pic your Civic is perfect for me ;)

Welcome aboard :)

Welcome aboard :)

Thanks, I try to keep things clean.. not cheap/gaudy like most ricers are...

on another note, maybe when i get access to view videos I will post a quick video of the beast... its loud enough to drone out about anything, lol.. too loud for everyday driving

[gis]

welcome aboard

i personally like the civic when they are kept clean from big spoilers and stuff.and turbo civics really interest me.have u got any vids of your car.id love to see them :D

[Boltz]

no i havent gotten a chance to get the vids from the camera to the computer... but ill mos definilty post them here when i get them..... if i get access to the video section it might speed me up a bit :lol:

[Boltz]

Since i dont have a video of my car yet, ill post these for you guys to check out.

[jpatino03]

Welcome!

That 520 HP civic must have torque steer like a beast.

[dis3as3d]

:roll: Its a civic...

[Boltz]

yea im sure he doesnt roadrace with it, but its fast in a straight line....

your damn right its a civic :D

[twboy1999]

civic is the most underated SUPERCAR in the WORLD

if tune rite can be a beast on the straight and on the track

[gis]

ah yes i seen those videos,that civic is awesome,and very fast in a straight line.

[hgt]

I think your M3 is still more interesting car. At least 4 me. Yeah you can make the Civic be powered by the propper wheels, but then you'd have to drive in reverse.

Welcome, and have fun.

[Boltz]

i just checked the forum but its 2am so no mod list tonight. but i will post one for you tommorow brembo....

HGT- the reason i sold the M3 over the civic is i found out it had been in a previous crash even though the carfax record was perfect. I am contemplating selling the civic and getting a new car next spring

SRT4, 95+M3,WRX, taking other suggestions

TIA

[gis]

id say SRT-4,but i dont think people are goin to agree with me.lol

[Boltz]

Welcome, and have fun.

I used to do reverse donuts in a 80 hp fwd hatch. imagine the donuts that 500+ hp civic can do !!!! MUHHAAHA :twisted:

No stickers, no wings, no neon lights, no hooker plaques = not rice

[Boltz]

around 1 bar.... gonna go for maybe upto 1.5 bar at the track in the spring...

the dumbtube isn't rerouted because I just haven't got around to messing with it yet...

im either going to

1) reroute it into the downpipe

2) make the tube longer and have it coming out the side of my front bumper right infront of my tire :shock: that way i can shoot some fire on my opponent :mrgreen:

[Boltz]

heheh, so far its ok.... the car is going to be sick in the spring :mrgreen:

thanks for the votes guys

[Boltz]

btw. what do you drive brembo?

[graywolf624]

Well a couple of comments..
"civic is the most underated SUPERCAR in the WORLD

if tune rite can be a beast on the straight and on the track
"

yeah, sure whatever.. supercar.. thats like saying my iroc is a supercar.. Even if you dump a million dollars into it. It is still a civic. Not to mention the civic is by no means cheap to make a fast car. I guarentee this guy spent quite a bit. A fast car can be made with any platform. I've seen a 9000 dollar pinto run 9s.. Does that make it a super car?

Is it rice?

Well I find the front lights and front clip tacky as hell. The car is also not going to be fast around corners. And personally I think the red engine hoses are stupid. (no offense meant, I am just being honest). That being said if the car has 500 hp it isn't rice. It may have torque steer out its ass (who knows..) and it certainly wouldn't keep up with a 500 hp rwd car. That being said it's different and fast. There doesnt appear to be many anti performance parts on the car(aka stock brakes with big wheels, huge rear wing, ect) so it isn't rice. To each his own. I'd never build anything up in that market for fear of being associated with ricers, but I respect you for the car you've built.

[gottacatchup]

well done it actually is a fast car not just something with at body kit

[crazidude]

Nice Civic. Nothing like my neighbors loud piece of crap. Yeah I'd say the SRT-4 would be a good choice.

[Boltz]

Well a couple of comments..

If i did dump a million dollars in it it would be faster than a banshee whichever way you threw it, and yes it would still be a civic.. but at that point, no matter what platform you started with it would be a rediculous supercar.

The civic can be a quick car for cheap, but spending the least amount of money and going to fastest wasnt my plan... Yes I did spend quite a bit of money, every penny I had to be exact ( over 10,000$ USA in go fast goodies alone)

The front lights and body kit are out of the picture for next season....

I bet you would be very suprised how well my car handles for a civic. :wink:

As for the red hoses? the stock ones were dirty, so i just covered them up :|

Im still a teenager and need a loud attention grabbing in your face kind of car because(im going to be honest) I like getting the looks that I get in my car, and the girls seem to like it a lot too... trust me 8)

[graywolf624]

"If i did dump a million dollars in it it would be faster than a banshee whichever way you threw it, and yes it would still be a civic.. but at that point, no matter what platform you started with it would be a rediculous supercar. "

No.. It wouldn't be. A supercar isn't just defined by it's ability. My iroc will never be a supercar and neither will your civic(even if either of us dropped a fortune into the vehicle).

"The civic can be a quick car for cheap, but spending the least amount of money and going to fastest wasnt my plan... Yes I did spend quite a bit of money, every penny I had to be exact ( over 10,000$ USA in go fast goodies alone)"

Yes and no. It can be good for a cheap car below a certain point. However as with all fwd cars it doesnt have the performance per dollar of a rwd car or a car that was built for performance in the first place.

"I bet you would be very suprised how well my car handles for a civic. "

You don't understand what type of handling I am talking about here. None of us were refering to good for a road car or average car.

For perspective my camaro handled better then a stock civic from the start. I have spent almost as much on suspension as you have on engine and I would term my suspension as good, not great. I handle in the neighborhood of the m3 with everything I have done when it is working properly(both with the correct tires for the track). I consider that car base line for what is a good handling car. (I can go a further and am working on it. 5000 dollars down, 15000 more to go.)

"Im still a teenager and need a loud attention grabbing in your face kind of car because(im going to be honest) I like getting the looks that I get in my car, and the girls seem to like it a lot too... trust me "

Honestly that type of attitude bugs me. I won't make further comments on it because it isn't my right to say anything on that.

[zevolv]

It's a nice car not some over done ugly ass car

[Boltz]

your judging my attitude by an internet post? :lol: Thats rediculous. you obviously like loud cars too, you do own a camaro....

and BTW: If you wanted a car to roadrace and were planning on spending 10g's on the suspension alone what the hell were you thinking buying a camaro?

saying your stock camaro can outhandle a stock civic isnt saying much. The car when it was stock was an economy car that was slow, had understeer and too much body roll. VS. rwd 8cyl sports car... whoopdy doo

[graywolf624]

"your judging my attitude by an internet post? Thats rediculous. you obviously like loud cars too, you do own a camaro....

"

This is exactly why I avoided comment. I didn't judge your attitude by the internet. You told me your interested in noise. I didn't buy the iroc to be loud. I wouldn't design my car to be loud. I bought my car for performance. I couldn't give a hoot about loud(just look at my daily driver). I will avoid commenting one more time in the hopes that you will drop it.

As for your road racing comment. That camaro your knocking is one of the cheapest cars to make a road racer. The key is to use a car that is disposable. I get into an accident, I strip off the parts and start over. The car is extremely fast and handles great. I'd have a higher potential with a z06 but I am unwilling to deal with the cost of a mistake.

And the last point ... "
saying your stock camaro can outhandle a stock civic isnt saying much. The car when it was stock was an economy car that was slow, had understeer and too much body roll. VS. rwd 8cyl sports car... whoopdy doo"

That is exactly the point I was trying to make. We were talking about whether the civic handled well. We weren't talking about how it handled for a civic.

[Boltz]

I never said I like noise. If you read the whole post you will realize that im either going to route the dumptube into the exhaust to make it more quiet, or just take it out the bumper for fun. Either way money is stopping me right now....

BUT if you think I did all of this to my car to be loud your crazy. With heavy modified cars comes very powerful sounding engines, powerful sounding engines are loud.....

If I wanted to be loud i would have bought a 5" ricecan and cut my springs :roll:

That is the attitude I don't like. This is me one last time saying it is best we don't go any further into my opinions.

[dutchmasterflex]

I definatey would of spent the money tuning the e36 M3 rather than a civic..
but that's just me..

I got a video of your Civic racing a 10 second viper on the street.You car really got me thinking.What I really want to know,How much did it cost you to do something like that to a civic?(you completely rebuilt the motor so it would have got easy got over 10 grand)
I never been a fan of honda civic,And I'll never will be.But If you can produce 550bhp on the wheels..I wonder what I can pull out of a Volvo 850 T5R?

[Kangaroo Boy]

Im still a teenager and need a loud attention grabbing in your face kind of car because(im going to be honest) I like getting the looks that I get in my car, and the girls seem to like it a lot too... trust me 8)

Thats pretty wrong Attitude to have.The reason people look at it,when you drive past them,they proably roll there eys :roll: and shake there heads going whats the point, its a civic and sounds like shit(because I have seen CRX with 3 inch stainless steel exhuast that is turbo ain't so great,My mates laugh at it....You don't need a loud car to be seen.

[gis]

^^^ i think thats a wrong attitude.personally i dont think civics sound to bad,neither do integras even the s2000,they all sound the same.its when people just buy a HUGE exhaust and thats it,everythin else goes to exterior mods.therefore they get the title "all show no go" just sound and it isnt goin anywere,Boltz civic on the other hand is the opposite,he putas his foot down he is gonna move,maybe spinning the wheels for a few seconds,lol but he is gonna move.therefore he can back up the noise :D

[Domyalex]

Nice Civic dude! I am a big, big fan of japanese cars.
Is it HB or sedan? How many hp are you getting out of the 1.6 SOHC?
I wonder however why you didn't mod an SiR or VTI; a friend of mine has a '98 Civic HB with VTI running 16psi (1.1 bar) and it just flies low....
Keep it clean :)

[graywolf624]

just buy a HUGE exhaust and thats it,everythin else goes to exterior mods.therefore they get the title "all show no go" just sound and it isnt goin

I think you misunderstood. Boltz there said he was going for the loud attention grabbing. Thats what we are upset about. My camaro is loud by nature. That doesn't mean it is a design goal of mine to make it louder.

[Kangaroo Boy]

Yeah its only when the turbo spools,and the engine is rev past 5700rpm he can back it up.And the power comes into play(proably alot of wheel spin as well). :twisted:

Still my point was, being teenager and having a car that can be heard for a mile is the wrong attitude even with a high performance vehicle..A girl that I worked with back last year did the same thing to her civic..She bought a turbo kit for 6 grand,(stage 1 I guess) and it was very loud,Louder then my cousins brothers V8 commodore.This thing was like 97db.Far over the limit(the limit for exhuast noise is 78db) and its the same model as Cheesefrog here.It was a huge Stainless exhaust and its bigger than my mates R31 skyline and his 3ltr 6 cyclindar (2 1/2 inch) and hers was 1.6ltr 4 cyclindar with a 3inch cannon,she got busted later on by the police for far too loud exhaust.There is nothing wrong having a loud car If it doesn't break the law.


heavy modified cars comes very powerful sounding engines, powerful sounding engines are loud.....

Thats statement is a tricky one...V8 supercars run at 88db exhuast noise or they get fine for breaking that rule.They are 600hp racing cars.The Nissan Skyline GTR R32 600hp monster I saw at Bathurst last year wasn't that aloud,And it had a 3 inch stainless exhuast and it wasn't as loud as the V8 supercars..Only thing I can think of that is really loud are drag cars that run straight out pipes that produce 3000hp.

[gis]

really i think we would have to see a video ir Boltz's civic,just see how loud the thing actually is :D

[Kangaroo Boy]

I can only hear the viper(because the camera is in it).In the video I have.

[Garretts_turbo]

very clean lookin' civic. nice color and body kit.
a lot of the rice-burners (and all other compacts) in my area are sadly and helplessly lost in a world of stickers and stereos, no performance to back up the look....

[Boltz]

I haven't checked this thread in a while, but in reply to a few of your posts.

greywolf - I don't want an online war with you but seriously, give me a break. I already had a civic, which is cheap insurance. I knew a lot about hondas and knew good honda tuners in the area. I had my motor built and threw on my turbo kit. If you know about turbos you will know that the best exhaust in a turbo car is no exhaust, which is why i have a 3" straight pipe from the turbo to muffler and an open dumptube. If you put the dumptube more than 8 inches away from the turbo in the downpipe you can be quiet without losing power but, do you care to pay for it? didn't think so.

Also I have to comment one more time on loud cars... IMO, when driving a car that is loud upon WOT it gives you a better connection to the car and whats going on inside the motor, and also is more fun.

If you don't like me I don't care, If you do like me I still don't care... But judging my attitude by a few internet posts is rediculous :roll: . The internet is an easy place to be mis-interpreted, now lets go our seperate ways and mind each others business...



To everyone else, it is a CIVIC EX COUPE, (SiR in canada) sohc vtec

The car is recieving a makeover as we speak.

1) I took off the entire body kit and replaced it with stock bumpers and sideskirts.
2) Perfected all the body work
3) Shaved all Honda emblems
4) Shaved the stock spoiler
5) Added Civic TypeR grille and front bumper lip. Along with Civic Si red/clear taillights and Civic TypeR headlights
6) Car is all primered up and waiting for the rest of the bumpers to be prepped, it is sitting in the paint booth as we speak.
7) Change of color :twisted: !! Keeper Maroon mettallic basecoat, Candy reveered red topcoat, A few tricks of the trade :P

I am extremely excited to finish because the color will be amazing, I will post pics for you guys once I finish

That is the attitude I don't like. I'm not judging you by anything else. That is an attitude. I couldn't care less about your car cause I don't do drag racing and frankly I'm not even criticizing you for it. This isn't about flames or anything. IT is that people your age like loud attention grabbing cars that disgusts me. I have an issue with that attitude. Your entitled to do it if you wish, but if thats your reason me and my friends will continue to laugh at your cars.

Yes but you are losing power by dumping into the engine bay.

well if you ask me, to tell you the truth, ive never really liked civics all that much, but that ones pretty nice, youve impressed me, good job...i hope to see some more of those pics in the future

Thats fine, ill still continue to laugh at camaros with my friends. But to all his own :D .

my external dumptube isnt killing power for me, the exhaust goes right under the car

Laters

[graywolf624]

my external dumptube isnt killing power for me, the exhaust goes right under the car

Where are you routing your dump tube to? I can't see from the picture.

If it goes into the engine bay you are killing power. If it goes out forwards of the front tires you are screwing up your handling. Otherwise your just annoying the local constable.

[Boltz]

it gets shot towards the back of the car about 4-5 inches off of the ground. All of that exhaust just goes under the car and dirtys up the frame :wink:

My intake is in the corner of the engine bay and has a 3" ducting going from the the bumper upto the filter so I should be OK...

Ive understood that a lot of you guys dont like me because you think im just an ignorant ricer that likes loud cars.

Graywolf, youve taken one statement that I made about my car that I made jokingly and rung it out until it was bone dry . I drive a H-O-N-D-A, which have no tail-pulling reputation, unlike BMW, Mercedes. And just so you guys know I've never tried to use my car to better my chances with a bird, I shouldnt need any material possesions for that. Im actually a very modest person in non internet forum situations...

but since its not a big deal lets just agree to disagree

you dont like me because I'm a childish ricer that spends more time at wendys trying to race for "respect Yo" than sleeping(lol :wink: )
I think that maybe I shouldnt have tried being a little sarcastic on an internet forum because it is obviously undectecable.


ON A DIFFERENT NOTE:

Im almost finished with my paintjob, I still need to wetsand and buff it, put the Lip spoiler on and lower it.... I also need to put some civic type r headlights on....

see if this works guys
