hey guys, it's been quite awhile since I've been on here...i've looked around and seen some 'familiar faces' so it's good to see people are still using this great resource. Anyway, I need some help with a drivetrain problem I've been having. First off, I'm pretty confident the problem isn't the...

I've been looking into upgrading my D16's cam gear. Is it worth the $125? (I'm looking at the Skunk2 pro series.) Will I notice any power changes, or is the Skunk2 cam basically just OEM replacement?

Alright so I'm debating some new rims for my hatch, but it's so hard to commit to any because there's so many good ones out there! Anyhow, I've narrowed it down to 15 inch gold or bronze, maaaybe silver, but that's what I currently have so I'd like something different. I've attached pictures of...

Ok guys, I've posted a couple times regarding suspension, basically I need new shocks and I figure might as well lower it since I've been wanting to for awhile now. I've been doing a lot of research and I need a question answered. Let's say I go with Skunk2 sport shocks and Skunk2 springs, which...

What up guys. I got some noises coming from my rear shocks as well as some fluids coming from the front and rear, so, I think it's time to drop some cash into my suspension. Here's the two options I'm looking at: Conservative and cheap option 1: Replacement OEM shocks for $300 Fun and...

Ok guys, need a few opinions on this. I've been having an oil leak for awhile now in my 99 hatch, and recently I noticed it's getting worse. I drive this car around 2,000 miles a month so I keep a close eye on any changes. My dad diagnosed the leak as a rear seal going bad. I called my mechanic...

what's up people.......question: Since I plan to eventually turbo my D16, would it be ok to build the motor (internals) for boost without actually boosting it right away? Cause I was planning on rebuilding the motor when it needed it. But I figure if I'm gonna be rebuilding it, might as well...

So I was at Checker Autoparts, or O'reilly or whatever they are now, getting some oil and I walked through the detailing section and remembered I needed to clean up my headlights. I grabbed the RainX brand headlight buffing kit. I'll let pictures do most of the reviewing but I'd say I was happy...

I've recently noticed a lot of Civics with aftermarket lower arm bars, are they just as pointless as aftermarket lower control arms? I want to start suspension work soon, I figure bracing components would be a good start before ultimately dropping 700 for some coilovers. What bracing products...

Background info: I've been having an off and on oil leak from somewhere near the middle of my car towards the front. I think I may have found the spot its leaking from today when I was putting in new shifter bushings. If you look at the picture, it seems as though the tranny is dented in where...

Anyone know a credible place to find some rear splash guards for the 99-00 hatches? I got some front ones this week at a local Honda dealer, but they just had the front, no rear. I don't want to deal with cutting or trimming either.

Found this 02 si on craigslist tonight, got my attention with the price tag. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/pts/1921211796.html

I'm selling a brand new polyurethane rear lip. It fits 99-00 Civics. Comes with mounting hardware. PM if interested. Sorry for the crappy picture. $40

I've been having this problem forever...basically my gas pedal seems to be tougher than normal to press down with my foot, which makes for bumpy acceleration. Essentially, the accelerator doesn't flow smoothly when pressed. I noticed the same problem on a Del Sol awhile back so I don't know if...

Ok, this is my first "How To" and first time painting anything for the exterior of my car, so it's probably not gonna be 100% perfect. Anyways, I decided to finally paint match my grille, and also decided to take pics and do a write up on the process. Enjoy :lol: WHAT I USED: 1 can of...

So I've been having some overheating problems, to say the least. I've posted a couple times about the problem already, but essentially my temp needle randomly starts going up. I've replaced all this so far: cooling fan, thermostat, radiator cap, and did a coolant flush. Problem is still...

Thinkin about getting new H emblems. Can't decide on the color. I like the black ones and the yellow ones. Car is VSM....Opinions? CLICK http://motors.shop.ebay.com/jdmsuperautobacs/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=

I realize that there's many posts regarding overheating, I've searched and searched and none match my siuation. My overheating problem is that randomly my car's temp gauge starts to rise, then goes down again. For instance, tonight at work (I deliver pizza) on a couple runs the needle started...

What up everyone... after much debate I think I've finally figured out what I'd like to do with my hatch. My plan is to essentially turn it into an ek9, as far as looks and performance go. Not too worried about the red Recaros or any interior swaps...question is -- will the JDM B16b motor swap...

ok so my car's been overheating and my mechanic recommended a new radiator fan. 150 dollars later and the car overheated on me again last night. Today i tried bleeding the system but the fan never kicked on and the bleeding instructions say it needs to come on at least twice. I swapped the...
