New Texas Owner

[Heyitsryan]

Hello everyone, my name is Ryan and I recently picked up a '07 NHBP Honda Civic Si to use as a daily driver. It replaced a tired and worn '08 Mazda3, which was incredibly boring to drive.

I must say, it's an absolutely fantastic car for a front wheel driver. I'm coming from an s2000 and a miata ( that I use for autox/hpdes) but the fa5 is just as fun to drive, plus it gets exceptional gas mileage. Besides the s2000, I've owned three civics and an integra so you can say I'm a bit of Honda fan, just not of anything they have built lately.

I bought her to commute (50 miles per day) but am definitely looking to get a bit more power. Anyone selling a kpro and i/h/e?


Anyways, I'm looking forward to interacting with you guys and finding out more about this great car.

What part of texas?
Welcome the the 8th life

[Heyitsryan]

I'm currently located in San Antonio/Austin, but I am originally from Houston. Are you on hi by any chance?

[2007GhostSI]

Oh ok. I'm in Houston. I don't frequent HI anymore since i got my 8th i'm on here now.

do you have an FA5 by chance? Want to trade Cars? I have an 07 Si Coupe.. lol

[2007GhostSI]

Coupes are the bomb man! Why u want to trade? Sedans have more options when it comes to exterior dressup like different bumpers and all.

[Heyitsryan]

Yes, I have an fa5. Sorry, but I have zero interest in the coupe.

I wouldn't have even considered the si if it didn't come in a 4 door. I need it since it's my daily!

GL trying to find someone to trade you though man!

Yeah, I still frequent the site a lot. Any advice on local places to get flashpro?

Another new si sedan owner here from Texas. Personally I do not like the way the coupes look at all. But that's just me.


Signatures ?????? We don't need no stinking signatures !!!!!

[2007GhostSI]

[2007GhostSI]

As far as FlashPro goes...they can be had for about $600 new which is pretty decent price online...Go Power has been having groupbuys back to back to back (They are on their 6th groupbuy i think?) I would check that out if i were you. They are a sponsor on this site.
