What's up everybody! My name is Chris, I'm 25 and I live in south Florida. Everything I've needed to know about my car I've found here. I'm really looking to get involved with local track days very soon also.

I bought this 2000 Civic CX Hatchback a few months ago, It came with a healthy 1998 B16B/S4C swap with 35k miles, and perfect interior&exterior. But the suspension and brakes were left stock! So, I sold my motorcycle and spent every $ on suspension and brakes. Before I began buying parts for it I did a lot of my research on this site, so Thank You All.

Vouge Silver Metallic

Under the hood
-98' CTR swapped
-BB6 injectors
-PWJDM intake
-Mishimoto radiator
-RMF narrow replica header
-APEXi WS2 (Much too quiet!)
-Hondata S300

Suspension
Koni Yellows/Ground Control coils (380F350R)
CTR 26mm front sway/forks/LCA/HardRace endlinks
ASR rear subframe brace
ASR 24mm rear sway
F7 rear LCA
CTR 5-stud/brakes
Enkei RPF1 & Hankook RS2 215/45/16

Interior

Exterior

Replica Spoon wing (?)...I want the real deal...

looks awesome m8 :) nice to see ur supporting the ek9.org stickers in florida ;)
 
Thanks much for the comments! I previously owned a 280whp Nissan S14 for a few years, and my Civic kills it in the breaking and turning department. The direction change ability of these cars is impressive!

*My hatch area squeaks a bit, would a rear strut bar help?
 
Lovely car. I'm going to florida on Tuesday. I might see you driving around. Ha
 
I'll send you a pm when I get over there :nice:
I'm staying in Orlando, I haven't got a breeze of the name of the place or the street. Is Orlando close to you?

Hey dude,welcome,u do have to give it to this website and the members everyone is helpful and the site itself has everything you need !

BTW-the spoon replica spoiler fits the car better than the real one does ,it seems to be more flush to the roof than the real one,its weird but there you go!
 
Ah Cormy, Orlando is about 3hrs north of me. Disney World & Islands of Adventure for you! Good partying too. So much for the international test drive, haha.

This is an awesome site, one of a kind. I'm actually proud to rock the ek9.org decal on my car. Thanks for all the kind comments dudes!
