Every time you post that pic I remind myself I need to buy a front lip. Car too low though gotta raise it. I'd destroy it on those steep inclines.
What lip style though?
Adrian Nelson
Ayy that's what I have. I got it for JDM points like the clear corners.
Jonathan Lewis
Yeah they got it on eBay paired with a rear lip for just over $50.
Spoon style looks good too. I can't be as low as these pics though. I'd destroy it just getting into the parking lot at work.
>also the parking lot at home, and several apartment complexes.
Isaac Rodriguez
I'd assume it's a bit different with civics since there's a better aftermarket for them, but with 3rd gen preludes there are a number of front/rear lip options that are interchangeable between different cars, albeit with some minor to moderate modifications. volvo 740, 94-95 accord, first gen integra.. have you looked into something like that?
here's mine with a 1994 accord lip before I trimmed the sides.
James Sanders
Looks pretty sweet. Yeah they have a lot of choices for EGs.
>Mugen style >Backyard Special >Type R >Spoon (pic related)
I'm kinda digging the Spoon one. Also helps that I have Spoon style mirrors and the Spoon style ducktail spoiler.
Sebastian Johnson
Also would love for my car to look that clean, minus the low height. Roads are way too uneven here, I'd bottom out on the first dip I hit every day on the way to work.

is your mom still a neet, shingu? Hopefully she found a job so you can start saving for that k swap
Ryan Robinson
She's working as a hotel receptionist for $8 something an hour, 40 miles away. It's pretty shitty but she's at least keeping up with bills.
Progress on the car has been bretty gud thanks to that.

what's next for the hatch?
Sebastian Wright
Waiting on Ground Controls in the mail so I can raise it a bit. Then I need to do some work to the rear brakes. Not too sure after that. Maybe see about getting some body work done. My co-worker with the bagged IS300 knows a guy with a paint booth and he (co-worker) said he'll paint my car if I get the shit for it. I wanna get the body straight first though, if that's even possible.
Not gonna do anything fancy. Just wanna bring back the factory Milano Red.

Oh and fix my idle. That's a pain in the dick. I want that low idle RPM.

Removed the sparkplugs out of the civic for shits, they all look like this.

Noah Bell
nice RLX famsammich. Good color choice too. Honda's v6 platforms are massively underrated for how fast they are. Surprised ricers don't go after accord v6's as much as civics.
>captcha >select all carsk >pic related >smoked accord tail light staring me right in the face
Nice 14 RLX , how is it in terms of reliability and recalls?
Luis Foster
I hope you guys know that /hg/ is the laughing stock of Veeky Forums. Honda has never accomplished a single thing. No one cares about shit tier FWD Econoboxes. Acura is a complete mess. Honda can't even compete in the world of motorcycles. Please, just stop making these threads and let the brand die as it should.

Yeah it's too cold for me right now. After installing the GCs I'm probably just gonna put everything else on hold until it's warmer.

>tfw no sleek and sexy fb6
am i alone in thinking the fb6 is the best looking civic sedan ever? not as rev happy as previous gens, but it looks way better than any before it imo
Josiah Hill
It's one of my favorite sedans I'll agree. I think 4th gen is the best looking sedan though.
Caleb Foster
Spray painting my rims today in the garage. Going to do the front tires this weekend and the back tires next weekend. Currently still sanding down the rims so i dont have a pic of them yet. Heres the wheel center caps need to sand then another coat and dry before i put the vinyl stencil on and finish them up then do the clear coats. Black n gold gonna look sick
Bentley Flores
I finally got my Head Gasket on. Only thing I got left is to put my cam seals. I bought some OEM seals but they don't fit. The inner rubber seal literally split as soon as I got it in place rendering it useless. All I have left is to torque down my caps/ cam bolt, Install T belt, harness, intake, exhaust, belts, mounts. Hopefully I can have it down by tomorrow.
Carter Lewis
Best looking modern civic sedan imo
Ryder Torres
What car?
Adam Reyes
Good luck m8

I swear if I get it done tomorrow i'ma take a pic and add her on the collage

No personal experience, just got it on Thursday. Nice car but I wouldn't pay 55k for it.
Seems to be good though, only issues I hear about are with the 6 speed auto.
Hopefully it all goes well for me
Alexander Baker
I need to put bigger brakes on the front end, who knows what parts I need? Also doing a swaybar while Im at swapping out the knuckes
Chase Turner
Can grab everything from an Integra GSR and it'll bolt right on.
First couple coats of primer. The inside center i didnt care about sanding too much so u can see it showing through. The walls got sum small holes but fuck it hand sanding sucks. I still need to sand the other tire. I had to go to work for a couple hours and now i gotta pick my wife up so i will take care of that in a couple hours. Then i will prime the other one up. Guess i will be getting out of bed all night long priming her up lol.

i have the blue fbp fa5 in the collage. whenever I see one on the road I wish I would have thrown down some more cash for an fb6. but, the fa5 was 5 grand under my budget so I went with that since I knew I wanted sick mawdz. It's been a breddy good car, but not quite as good looking as the fb6
Easton Edwards
What?
Samuel Bell

Jayden Smith
Hey guys, I'm looking at replacing a 2001 Honda civic motor does anyone know if its easy to do? I've never replaced an engine and was wondering if it was worth the effort.
Charles Sanchez
If it's your first time I recommend getting some help from someone who's done it before. Having an engine lift/cradle is a must. Should take about a day if you start in the morning and have all the parts and tools.
Logan Morgan
Yeah not worth doing unless you know somebody.
>26F with RealFeel of 17F >Wind blows
MY FUCKING FACE AAAAAAA
Austin White
not too hard as long as you understand the big picture of the removal process:
-drain fluids -remove the front clip or subframe i guess depending on which is easier for your car -remove the wiring harness -remove clutch line, shifter cables -disconnect a/c line -pull the axles -remove the mounts -hook it up to a hoist and yank it out (or drop the motor with a jack) -swap the accessories and transmission over to the new one just do it all in reverse to install
probably forgetting some stuff, but that's basically it. not much to it if you have the tools and the space.
James Lewis
>5℉ >-9℉ wind chill Wew lad Even you guys are getting some of the colder winds from the polar vortex
Tyler Gomez
It wouldn't be so bad if I weren't by the lake. As long as it doesn't freeze everything like the start of 2014. I think that was a super rare event, though.
>pic related
Samuel Edwards
fuck
Liam Hall
where'd you cop the ground controls?
Daniel Hill
jfc I'd buy that in a heartbeat
Ryder Scott
Thanks for the replies, since I'm already swapping the motor should I just replace the transmission since it's a 2001 auto tragic and these transmissionsites are horrible.
Isaiah Carter
Hey guys, im replacing a headgasket on a 3rd gen Prelude, any tips or tricks? It has the B20A9 engine.
Logan Walker
Don't put it on backwards. What's up with the motor? I'm working on the same car right now, I may have answers.
Hunter Bell
Yea I'd recommend the trans swap too. Make sure you get a manual ECU to go with it.
Dominic Jackson
eBay. I did price comparisons everywhere else and they had the best deal.
Manual swap would be sweet.
Lincoln Foster
Take pics of how the engine looks before taking it apart. It'll make assembling it back together easier if you can't finish it in a day.
John Mitchell
I got the rims prime and painted. About to do the gold paint once i get it taped up. Almost done just a few more hours.
Hunter Murphy
>two tone wheels Not my cup of tea but we'll see how it looks.
Isaac Ramirez
Here are the plastic wheel covers. They are still drying. Cant wait to peel the stencil off and see how sharp it is. I will probably redo these later the base paint got all bubbled from a shitty coat.
Carson Miller
Looking good.

William Diaz
>An old beat up 95 accord ex Why are you doing this
Adam Perez
Got new plugs in the civic, froze my ass off doing it, too. Checked to see why the exhaust was leaking, there is a 1 inch gap between the end if the headers, and the start of the pipe. Fuck me.
Anthony Perry
>tfw haven't replaced the plugs or wires in mine at all yet
It runs smooth as fuck so I haven't messed with it. The Corolla on the other hand needed them. Wires were corroding and the plugs were fucked. Misfires like crazy.
Andrew Ward
You have the stock one right now?
Carter Murphy
This is one of the most cringiest shit I've seen in the hg
