Member's list added Doug I creeped your photobucket and got the banner, but photobucket sucks so you should email me a higher quality version.

Post your painted stocks
2 of them have the stock rims like i want, either of the 2 black SI, 2 or 4 door on the page have them. One has the red honda logo on the wheel which i think looks good.

Woot!

I feel special! Members list FTW!

On a side note, I hit vtec in 5th today. Don't tell anyone, including the police.

The combination of the red H and red ring looks a lot better than one or the other imo

You know what I really like. Some people may call this ricey/stupid but I really like lime green rims on black cars.

[katsuz]

I would call it ricey lol, but other peoples opinions do not matter, go with what you want.

Oh my crap! I haven't signed onto this site in almost a year. LOL

When I had my two 8th gen civics, the only person on here was slostjoe from my area. This is INSANE to me!

Anyways, I'm getting ready to trade in my 2009 Rio Yellow S2000 CR. I hate it with a passion, and I miss my Si like no other. This time instead of FG2 I'm going to do an FA5. Maybe blue... I loved slostjoe's car... I miss it too!

Welcome back! Sad to hear you're trading in your S2K, I love those cars. Glad to hear you're getting an FA5 though.

Yeah, I like it more than any car I've ever owned....at the track. Other than that, it's just cool to get looks in. Going through a drive through, in bad weather, going to the store to get stuff, and pretty much anything else sucks. I'll miss it, that is for sure. I thought about getting a 2011 WRX Limited as they have an incentive lease, however, I like to own.

I think the FA5 will be a great daily. When I get my new "track" car, it will be just that...a dedicated track car.

Losing my car today so it can get my fuel return installed and tuned again. Can't wait. Also probably getting some visual mods.

Good stuff. You really should check in to getting your vtec lowered to 4800 or so. What visual mods you thinking?

Just spent the past 2 hours putting on my SRI. That thing is a pain in the ass to install. Thanks for the help doug!

At least it wasn't 20 degrees outside, 40 is the perfect temperature to be standing outside for hours. Here's the gem we found after we installed the SRI. It's a video, so click it.

haha, you left the rice to get behind more rice. Okay, I'd take a tC over a saturn any day, but still.. Si >>>> tC

Thanks to Matt, I'll be installing my SRI here soon too. Can't wait! First mod, ever. Gotta wait for the parts kit to come in from K&N tuesday.

What SRI did you go with?

EDIT: I just looked at the instructions for the R18 SRI from K&N, and wow... you guys have it rough.. the Si is basically a few coolant hoses, a few screws, and a hose clamp or two. haha.

I got the weapon r SRI. Got it for $90 shipped from another member, not bad for a $200+ intake. Yeah on the Si everything is right in front, but on the R18 it's all on the back of the engine. I thought an intake would free up room but the thing is pressed right against my battery. Sounds good though. I'm enjoying those 3hp it gave me.
