    Hi, I've been on this forum for a few months but I just now have the time to take some pics of my 2000 coupe, it's nothing fancy... YET!!! I hope to do a few more mods to it in the future. As for now it has an intake and a SiR lip.
    This forum kicks ass and everyone has been really cool!

    Well... I want to,

    Lower it 1.5" to 2"
    DC headers:googly:
    Exhaust:woot:
    16" Rims (don't know what kind yet)
    New sound system
    Tint

    ( I AM OPEN TO SUGGGESTIONS ON ALL THIS STUFF, IF ANY ONE KNOWS WHY I SHOULDN'T GET A CERTAIN BRAND PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LET ME KNOW )

    It's a D16Y8, and auto, so I don't want to spend to much money on the motor because I know it will never be fast, Just want it to look and sound good.:)

    Welcome to the site!!! Your car looks like a good clean start.....auto :nono: but you could swap a new motor and tranny real easy but I would have to go with either 16s or 17's......... just dont go bigger than 17s!!!

    I would love to do a swap but I've got alot of bills to pay before I can even think about droppin cash like that, so I'll just make it pretty in the meantime.

    Yeah, I am going to get 16s I had a friend that had 17's or 18's on an integra and he dented the shit out of his rim when he hit a pot hole (I think he popped the tire too) Plus I know the ride is alot smoother with 16's.

    Thanks for all the input ( I probrobly would have gone with the 17's and regreted it) thanks agin for the help.

    New Grill

    Well I just got my si grill in the mail after waiting for a dam month!!! :mad:

    Don't ever buy anything from Vertexracing on e-bay! not only did they post the grill for sale knowing that they were out of stock but they also took a month to ship it to me and I'm not to happy with the fit, but I guess thats the risk you take when you go cheap'o. :computerrage: :bs: :(

    I'll post pics soon!

    i had a 97 civic coupe that was also auto, but i put a tanabe racing madallion exhaust, aem cold air intake w/bypass valve, a dc header, aem cam gear and a 75 shot and ran a 14.8 in the 1/4. then swapped to a jdm b17 with an auto tranny and same mods and ran 2 tenths faster. that car can be decently quick.
