I'd get the 3" intake for the CTR motor. That skinny intake will restrict airflow more than you think.

Update: switched taillights with a friend just to see what they would look like on my car ... but then his car got totalled by a drunk driver so my old tail lights are dead..


also got bored with the ugly rims so a painted them lol also got some springs and got the correct fender for the car cause whoever had it before me had the wrong fender on it -.-

anyways thats it for now im waiting on my GF to buy me that b16 >.< will update when anything changes
wait, your going to let your girlfriend buy your engine swap? seems a little much doesn't it? if she is already paying for your interior and paint then why is she buying you your engine aswell?

it feels good to work and pay for your own car, at then end of the day you can look back and say, thats my car, no one elses. at the rate this is going, god forbid it happens, but what if she leaves you? with the car?

just some food for thought.

yeah well she isnt buying me anything anymore cause i want to do it myself lol but my plans did change for this car i either wanna repaint the car blue and get some white slipstreams or other rims and just make is a hellflush civic thats really clean looking or repaint the car black and order some slipstreams and paint them flourescent orange :P but if i do go black i want all carbon fiber fenders and hood and lips but if i go blue i dont want the carbon fiber just the lips . but im just going to turbo the d16 since noone in my town has a turboed single slammer. but i do plan on getting another car that will be rear wheel drive idk what i want yet maybe a FD or a 86 . not to sure but guys dont worry i know my car is ugly right now but i will make it look good and it will be how i like it .

Your headlights dont look to bad with the HIDs, but in the day your car looks soooo heat. The build seems to be going downhill quick, and also seems all over the place. Ordering a B16 to turbo but you also might keep the D series and turbo it to be different? Orange slipstreams on a blacked out car.... Just my 2 cents it's your build though
